Markets.—There are three markets in the Borough, situate
in Bradmore Lane, Approach Road and Norland Road. These
markets have been the subject of much inspection during the
year, both by the District Inspector concerned and the
Inspector carrying out the requirements of the Food and
Drugs Acts.
Many of the stalls in the Railway Approach Market are
constructed so as to form lock-ups when business for the day
is finished and thereby provide a means of storage for all
unsold food.
In other instances, Bradmore and Norland Markets, wheelbarrows
form the structure, and these are wheeled to and
from the markets, morning and evening, the food being
stored under various conditions.
During the year special inspections have been made of the
premises where the food was stored.
Fried-fish Shops.—The fried-fish shops are regularly and
constantly inspected for the purpose of ensuring conformity
with the Bye-laws made by the London County Council. At
the same time a careful look-out is kept on the condition of
the fish.
Bakehouses.—The 47 bakehouses in use in the Borough
have been regularly inspected during the year. Fifteen
notices were served relating to various defects, 14 being
complied with.
It was not necessary to apply for any summonses against
Bakers whose bakehouses were found not to be in conformity
with the Act, as they readily complied with the requirements
of the notices served.
