Factories and Workshops.
All the Workshops and Work-places in the District have
been inspected during the year, and various sanitary defects
remedied as a consequence.
Very little home work appears to be given out from Workshops
in the District, and the list of out-workers consequently
contains but few names. At some of the small Workshops the
work done is for firms in London, and their occupants are
technically out-workers, but their names are not included in
the list of out-workers, as the rooms come under inspection in
the ordinary routine.
The following is a list of the Workshops and Work-places on the Register at the end of 1905:—
