PARISH OF ST. JAMES, WESTMINSTER.
APPENDIX TO REPORT OF MEDICAL OFFICER OF HEALTH.
REPORT OF SANITARY INSPECTORS AS TO
CONDITION OF BAKEHOUSES IN THE PAERISH
DURING THE YEAR 1898.
January 10th, 1899.
To the Public Health Committee.
Mb. Chairman and Gentlemen,
We beg to report that the whole of the Bakehouses in the
Parish (numbering 27) have been inspected by us during the
year 1898.
There has been considerable improvement in the general
condition of the Bakehouses. In eight cases slight defects were
found, and have been reported to you; but with these exceptions
the Bakehouses have been well kept.
During the past year one of the Underground Bakehouses
has been closed, and will shortly be demolished. This reduces the
number ot' Bakehouses in use at the present time to 26.
We are,
Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen,
Your obedient servants,
J. P. FOLLAND,
T. W. CALVEELEY, Sanitary Inspectors.
