The sanction includes for the erection of the first 100 of
these dwellings, which will be built along the existing road
frontages, leaving the interior of the land to be built on at
a later date.
The land has a good slope, is well drained, and is
eminently suited for the purpose, and is accessible in every
direction by tram.
Each dwelling includes a Scullery, Bath, W.C., Coal
Store and Larder, the other accommodation being as follows:
CLASS A.
Living Room, 14ft. by 13ft.
Bedroom, 14ft. by 9ft.
Bedroom, 11ft, by 8ft.
CLASS B.
Living Room, 13ft. 6in. by 11ft. 6in.
Parlour, 11ft. 7in. by 9ft.
Bedroom, 13ft. 6in. by 11ft. 3in.
Bedroom, 11ft. 7in. by 9ft.
Bedroom, 10ft. by 6ft. 9in.
The kitchen fireplace openings are so arranged that hot
water can be put on at a later date and connected to the bath
and sink.
The Council's main sewer passes completely through the
site, and causes a considerable saving on the question of
drainage.
All the fine trees on the site are preserved, and the layout
will be artistic and economical, with plenty of open spaces
and good gardens.
The Local Government Board Inquiry in connection with
the buildings was held by Mr. Collin on the evenings of the
2nd and 5th days of March, 1914.
