Table LXXXIX. shows the principal trades carried on in
the premises on the Register, but it does not include the trades in
workplaces, domestic workshops, or in outworkers' premises.
Compared with 1908 there has been a decrease of 11 in the
number of these trades, this decrease being almost wholly confined
to the sub-district of Wandsworth.
