The provision of new soil and stormwater sewers in the Barnet Gate
Lane/Hendon Wood Lane area was completed, save for minor reinstatements, by
the end of the year, "by which time the majority of the properties concerned
had "been connected thereto. All closely built-up areas of the district,
other than the more rural portions of Totteridge and Rowley, with their
scattered habitations, are now served by soil sewerage.
The East Middlesex trunk sewerage scheme has moved further towards
fruition, some works of construction taking place in the district. This
will in due course eliminate the overloaded Barnet Sewage Works. The
deodorising plant at the Sewage Works has continued in operation, as
necessary: few complaints of smell were received and these were investigated.
