PLEASURE FAIR BY-LAWS
In view of the lack of legal control over the persistent
public health nuisances caused by the absence of sanitary
conveniences at the private Vale of Health Amusement Park, the
Council determined to make By-laws in pursuance of the powers
contained in the London County Council (General Powers) Act, 1939.
These By-laws were confirmed by the Home Office and came
into operation on the 1st October, 1954.
They provide as follows:-
1. Throughout these by-laws the expression "pleasure fair" means
any entertainment which is run for profit and which consists of
or includes any or all of the following forms of entertainment,
whether or not in combination with any other forms, that is to
say, any travelling circus, exhibition of human beings or performing
animals, merry-go-round-about, switchback railway, cocoanut shy,
hoop-la, shooting gallery or swings or anything similar to any of the
foregoing. Provided that the said expression does not include any
fair held by statute, charter, royal licence, letters patent or
ancient custom.
