and contains a certain amount of information with regard to registration, inspection,
etc. Underground rooms and underground sleeping rooms, though controlled,
the former under the Public Health (London) Act, 1891, and the latter
under special regulations made by the Council in 1910, are not registered.

A.—BUSINESS PREMISES.
Milk Premises.—The number of premises upon which milk is sold is 107.
In 1914 there were 237 on the register.
Cow Sheds.—The only cow shed remaining in the borough at the end of 1928,
that situated at 42a, Clipstone Street, and licensed for 10 cows, was closed in
September, 1929. As has been explained in previous reports there were certain
reasons which appeared to justify the continuance of this shed, but it is without
regret that its final disappearance, as indeed the disappearance of all cow sheds
from the borough is recorded.
Slaughter Houses.—At the moment the only slaughter house in the Borough
is that at 32a, Union Street, W.1, which is held by Mr. E. J. Barclay, of 70,
Great Titchfield Street, W.1.
No conditions are attached to the licence and the amount of slaughtering now
done is comparatively small : during the year only 58 sheep, 12 lambs, and 1
bullock were dealt with.
Humane killers, in accordance with the requirements of the L.C.C. by-laws,
are being used in this slaughter house, and apparently with complete success.
Offensive Trades.—There are only three premises within the borough upon
which trades classed as offensive are carried on. The business in two cases is
that of tripe hoiling, and in the remaining one that of poultry slaughtering.
The Food Inspector made 60 visits, but no cause for complaint was found.
