west to east, along Pembroke-road, Stratford-road, and south of
the Workhouse, then through Cornwall-gardens to Queen's-gateplaee,
and thence northwards so as to include Queen's-gate,
Jays' mews and Kensington-gore. The Brompton Sub-District
comprises the remainder of the parish south of the above
described line.
Parliamentary Divisions. North Kensington and
South Kensington are the two divisions of the Parliamentary
Borough, separated by High-street, Notting-hill, and Hollandpark-avenue:
North Kensington, comprises the North, Northeast
and the North-vest sanitary districts; South Kensington
comprises the Central, the South-east, and the South-west
sanitary districts, as they were constituted during the greater
part of the year.
Sanitary Districts.—At the commencement of the year
the sanitary districts were seven in number. In the month of
February they were reduced to six, as described below. At the
present writing there are still six sanitary districts, but the
boundaries are not the same in respect to the North-east, the
North-west and the Central districts, these having been varied
in October. This, however, is a matter that will be more conveniently
dealt with in the report for 1897. The districts as
delimited in February, 1896, and as they were administered
for nearly the whole of the year, are as follows:—
The North Sanitary District comprises the portion of
the parish to the north of the Hammersmith and City Railway,
with the exception of a few streets at the south-west corner of
that area.
The North-west Sanitary District includes the streets
above referred to, its north and eastern boundaries extending in
a somewhat curved line from, Latimer-road, along Waimer-road
and Princes-road to Holland-park-avenue.
