(2.) By request of the Licensing Justices the Council instructed
me to inspect and report on the following Public Houses and
also to give evidence before the Compensation Committee at
the Clerkenwell Sessions:—
(a) "The Rose and Shamrock," 503, York Road,
Wandsworth.
(b) "The Gardeners' Arms," I, Gay Street, Putney.
(3.) Special inspection was made of the River Graveney in consequence
of several complaints as to its insanitary condition,
specially in that part at back of new property in Mitcham
Road, Tooting, and South Streatham. The whole of that part
of the River in the Borough was inspected, but at the time
of the inspection no insanitary condition was observed.
Although no complaint had been received from the residents
in Longley Road, Tooting, inspection was also made at that
point, but the River was fairly clean, and little or no deposit
existed.
{4.) Complaint having been received of the insanitary condition of
the ditch at the back of Ravensbury Road, Wandsworth, I
made several inspections of this, and as on the occasion of
my first visit I was of opinion that part of the ditch should be
cleansed. Attention was called to the matter, and eventually it
was cleansed out and on the subsequent visits the water was
found to be clean and no nuisance could be detected.
