Registered Houses.
The following are the houses let in lodgings that have
been registered:—
Maze Pond, Nos. 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 & 18;
Lafone Street, Nos. 8, 29 & 31;
Gainsford Street, No. 60;
Curlew Street, Nos. 1 & 2 ;
Morris Court, Nos, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 & 12.
The registration of 29 Lafone Street was afterwards
withdrawn, as all the previous tenants had notices to quit,
and the house is now occupied by members of only one
family. Overcrowding, &c., was thus abated.
Eight of these houses have been provided with additional
water closet accommodation during the year.
Bakehouses.
The Bakehouses of the District have been twice inspected
during the year. One notice was served on the occupier to
comply with the Board's regulations.
Five of the seven Bakehouses are situated below the
ground level.
A detailed account of the sanitary work done will be found
in Table III. (of the Appendix), prepared by the Sanitary
Inspector. Mr. Thomas Ashdown. All the work has been
satisfactorily carried out.
