URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL OF
COULSDON & PURLEY.
HEALTH REPORT FOR 1915.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I beg to present my First Annual Report for the
Urban District of Coulsdon and Purley.
In order to make the Report as complete as possible,
I have included in the Appendix the Tables referring to
the Croydon Rural District for the first three months of
the year.
The Death Rate, which is extremely low, was 7T
per thousand of population; the rate for England and
Wales being 15.1.
The year has been a fairly healthy one, with no
serious outbreaks of infectious disease.
I am, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your obedient servant,
C. M. FEGEN,
Medical Officer of Health.
Council Offices,
Croydon.
