Common Lodging House
The Common Lodging House situated at 124, Camberwell
Road is licensed by the Council for the accommodation of 224
male persons. Thirty-eight visits of inspection were made to
these premises during the year by the district sanitary inspector
and on each occasion the establishment was found to be satisfactory
in all respects.
At the request of the owners and on payment of an agreed
charge the premises are sprayed every month by the Council's
Disinfecting Staff as a precaution against possible vermin
infestation.
