COMMON LODGING HOUSES.
These places are controlled by the London County Council under by-laws
which gives that body powers of inspection both by day and night. They are
licensed annually, and therefore their keepers or owners are more amenable
to control, and obey the by-laws more carefully than do the owners of any
other class of lodgings.
They number 49 in Islington, of which 38 are licenssd for men, 9 for
women, and 2 for married couples.
