Both these Areas constitute part of the Council's
Glyndon Redevelopment Area. They are in an area zoned for
residential purposes.
The Council had, following my earlier representation
that the properties were unfit for human habitation, made a
Clearance Order in respect of l-4(cons.) Taylor's Buildings,
Spray Street, S.E.18. Confirmation of-the Order was received
by the Minister of Housing and Local Government on the 27th
April, 1964.
