Bakehouses.
There were 77 bakehouses on the register at the end of 1924.
Of these 50 use power, and are therefore factories. Fifty of the
bakehouses are above ground, and 27 are under ground. Three bakehouses
were re-opened during the year. On the other hand one
above ground and one below ground bakehouse were discontinued
during the year, the premises being used for other businesses.
278 inspections were made during the year, and 36 intimation
and 12 statutory notices were served, mainly for failure to
carry out the half-yearly lime-whiting of the bakehouses within
the statutory period.
Warehouses and Wharves.
At the end of 1924, there were 42 premises on the register,
including railway yards. These premises were systematically
inspected during the year, and 57 inspections were made. Five
notices were served to remedy nuisances found on inspection.
