Sib,
I beg to submit to you my (thirteenth) Annual Report of the
Sanitary works executed for the abatement of nuisances which had
existed in the Central Division of the parish of Bromley under the
Council of the Metropolitan Borough of Poplar for the year ended
December 31st, 1902.
I have inspected 1284 premises, 719 in response to complaints of
nuisances, 413 on account of infectious diseases notified, and 152
house-to-house inspections were made. Of the 1284 premises so

in the remainder, 1009, nuisances were found to exist, which
necessitated works of sanitary repairs (see Tabulated List), and
