SMOKE CONTROL AREAS
The effect of Smoke Control Areas No. 3 and 4, coming into operation
in 1962, resulted in the Council's programme being brought up to its timed
schedule of bringing an area into operation every year. This programme
was maintained in 1963 as Smoke Control Area No. 5 became operative on
1.12.63.
Area No. 5, comprised 281 acres and was bounded on the North by
Whitethorn Avenue, Laburnum Avenue and the northern boundary of
Kingston Lane Playing Fields, thence easterly along the Urban District
Boundary to its junction with Hayes and Harlington Urban District Boundary,
thence southwards to Starveall Bridge, thence westerly to Horton
Bridge Road, thence northwards along Horton Bridge Road to the junction
of that read with Horton Road, thence westerly along Horton Road to
Acacia Avenue, thence northerly along Acacia Avenue to its junction with
Whitethorn Avenue, Yiewsley.
