Where the water-supply is in a wash-house or scullery
there is generally a proper sink provided, but where it is in
an open yard there is no sink, but usually a gully underneath.
Apart from Harrington Buildings, I think it would be
difficult to prove a nuisance from want of a supply of water
at any of the 29 houses with no separate supply.
The following is a list of the houses with no separate supply:
20, 21, 22, The Avenue, Sand}7 Hill Road;
1, 2, 3, Thomas's Cottages, Princes Road;
4, 5, 6, 7, 8, Thomas's Cottages, Princes Road;
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, Harrington-buildings, Chapel Street;
5, 6, 7, 8, Railway Cottages, Samuel Street;
4, 5, 6, 7, Limbrey's Buildings, Station Road;
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, Thrift Cottages, Henry Street.
In the following the supply is outside the house and is
situated in the open:—
3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, Kates Place, N. Woolwich;
25, 26, 27, 28, The Slade;
No. 1 Hut, Harrow Manorway;
The Cot, Harrow Manorway;
The Cottage, Harrow Manorway;
No. 21 Hut, Harrow Manorway;
No. 22 Hut, Harrow Manorway;
1, 3, 5, 7, Barnfield Road;
55, Artillery Place;
10, Sims Buildings, Station Road;
1-8, Coopers Place, Eltham;
14 and 15, Brentwood Cottages, Eltham;
