The Council, on July 26th, 1906, ordered a summons to be
taken out in connection with a recurring nuisance from manure
at stables at 261, Brixton Road ("The White Horse" Publichouse),
and the magistrate adjourned the case to enable arrangements
to be made for the manure to be placed in a van, which,
for that purpose, was to stand in the yard.

The defendant was fined £2 with £5s. costs.
(2) St. John's Lodge Estate, Casewick Road, West Norwood.
