The boundary line between the South-East and South-West
Wards ran along the centre of the North and South-Western
Junction Railway near the Council's depot in Petersfield Road
to the bridge over Acton Lane, thence along the centre of Acton
Lane to the boundary of the district at the south-east corner of
Chiswick Road.
In the Annual Reports for 1906—1909, this distribution was
followed in the preparation of the statistics, but in 1909, another
alteration was made in the boundaries. The last alteration
affected only the South-East and South-West Wards. The
North-East and North-West Wards remained unchanged. The
boundary line between the South-East and South-West Wards
now runs along the centre of Acton Lane to Antrobus Road,
thence along the centre of Antrobus Road to Bollo Lane, and
thence along the boundary of the parish to Thorney Hedge
Road. The following streets were transferred from the SouthWest
to the South-East Ward:—Acton Lane from the Roman
Catholic Schools to the boundary of the district by Chiswick
Road, Montgomery Road, Fairlawn Groye, and Fairlawn Avenue,
Chiswick Road, Chiswick High Road, Silver Crescent, Thorney
Hedge Road, south side of Antrobus Road, Seymour Road,
Wolesley Road, Cunnington Street, Ravenscroft Road, Bollo Lane
from Railway Hotel to Acton Green Club.
The population of the transferred portion is estimated at
3,000 inhabitants.
In any study of No. 2 of the Local Government Board's
Tables, the above alteration should be taken into consideration.
POPULATION.
Shortly after this report will have been published, the result
of the Census will be made known. Unfortunately, it is not
practicable to postpone this report until the result of the Census
is known, and one must again make an estimate of the population.
As this estimate is primarily based upon the results of the
last Census, it will be readily understood that at best it can only
be an approximate one. Nearly ten years have now elapsed since
