CLINIC BUILDINGS.
At their meeting on June 28th the Council approved of the
revised arrangements for the erection of buildings at Marsh Road,
Pinner, Alexandra Avenue, South Harrow, and Honeypot Lane,
whereby such buildings would be erected and solely controlled by
the Middlesex County Council, the County Council to rent to the
District Council those portions of the buildings to be used for
maternity and child welfare services, and to give an assurance of
security of tenure of the accommodation to be provided, and for
reasonable extension of such services from time to time as the
need arises.
A small parcel of land at the rear of the Broadway, Pinner
Road, which was considered suitable for the erection of a maternity
and child welfare clinic was purchased.
