The bakehouses situate at No. 2 Pitfield Street and 249 Old Street adjoin each
other and belong to the same business. These are regarded as one bakehouse for
inspection purposes. The bakehouse at No. 183 City Road is not used at present for
baking, the baking for the shop attached thereto being carried out at No. 28,
Shepherdess Walk. The bakehouse situate at No. 109 Bridport Place has been out
of use since the middle of August.
Of the 84 bakehouses in use, 72 were in a satisfactory condition when inspected,
and the remainder were fairly so. Limewashing and general cleansing were necessary
in eleven, and in five a few minor sanitary matters required attention. Fifty-three of
the bakehouses in Shoreditch are underground within the meaning of the definition
contained in Section 101 (3) of the Factory and Workshops Act, 1901. The new provisions
of this Act relating to bakehouses have already been referred to.
