Messrs. Hall & Sons, Pinner Park Farm, by Messrs. J. H. Brazier from
their Kenton Lane Depot and by Messrs. S. Brazier from premises in the
area controlled by the Watford Rural District Council.
Inspection and Sampling:
Visits were made at intervals throughout the year to all farms and
establishments handling or retailing milk. All were found satisfactory, both
structurally and as regards the maintenance of standards of hygiene.
