I am indebted to Dr. K.M. Citron for the following report on the work of
Battersea Chest Clinic for the year.
"The Battersea Chest Clinic area covers a very small area in Lambeth. This
area is as follows:-
Wix's Lane in the South to Southville Street in the North.
In the other direction from Robertson Street to Clpaham High Street".
