Piggeries.—With reference to the Piggeries I have to report
that they have been frequently inspected, but I have never received
any complaints as to the smell from same. In Old Oak Lane Nos 1
to 4, I have persuaded the Owner to make the tenants abolish
keeping Pigs in the Back Yards so that we now only have three
Piggeries in Old Oak Lane.
Common Liodging Houses—Only 2 Common
Lodging Houses exist in the District. These have been regularly
inspected, and on all occasions found to be in a satisfactory condition.
Smoke Abatement.—All Factory and Works chimneys
have been observed at frequent intervals. No proceedings have been
taken against the Owners for emitting black smoke so as to be a
nuisance. I received complaints from the Coal Smoke Abatement
Society during the year and immediately served Notices with
reference to same. The observations kept by myself and Assistant
numbered 23. I have to record the valuable assistance in the
suppression of Smoke nuisances which I have received from the
Inspector to the Coal Smoke Abatement Society.
