The figures for 1919 were 91 and 16 respectively, the reduction being due to
the fact that in 1920 one more cowshed, v.z.: that at 3, Malthouse Mews, ceased to
be used, and no application for renewal of the licence for the premises was made.
During the year regular and frequent visits of inspection were made to all
sheds and attention directed at the time to any matters that seemed to require it.
The need for serving notices did not arise.
Milk Premises.—The number of premises upon which milk is sold is 186.
This is 3 more than in 1919, 5 having been added and 2 removed; in 1914 there
were 237 on the register.
