St. Giles Churchyard.
The monument erected to the memory of the Belasyse
family, abutting on the east wall of St. Giles Church,,
was found to be so decayed as to be dangerous to persons
walking past it, and the Board, after lengthy consideration
and with the assent of the Rector of the church, decided
to remove it; the inscription tablet of the monument was
placed within the porch of the principal entrance of the
church, the remainder of the stones forming the monument
being stored away in the vaults under the church.

Your Board, on the application of the London Hydraulic
Power Company, sanctioned the extension of existing
