CHIEF SANITARY INSPECTOR'S REPORT.
Health Department,
8, Brampton Road,
Bexleyheath.
To the Mayor, Aldermen and Councillors of the Borough
of Bexley.
Mr. Mayor, Ladies and Gentlemen,
I have pleasure in submitting my Annual Report as
Chief Sanitary Inspector and Public Cleansing Officer to
your Council for the year 1955.
During the year Mr. F. W. Willington, District Sanitary
Inspector, retired by reason of permanent ill-health, and
Mr. G. F. Lovegrove resigned to take up an appointment in
Uganda. Mr. Willington had been with the Council for
20 years, and Mr. Lovegrove, for a similar period. Their
going was a distinct loss to the Department, particularly as
some difficulty was experienced in filling these posts.
The report consists mainly of a tabulated record of work
carried out by the Sanitary Inspectors.
