WATER.
The district is supplied by the Colne Valley Water Co.,
in the main, but a few houses in Sudbury are supplied by the
Rickmansworth Water Co.
Four cottages belonging to the London Midland and
Scottish Railway Company are supplied with water from
the private supply belonging to that company.
Periodically we have had these waters analysed, the
results of which have been satisfactory.
