1. Water Supply.—Vide Annual Report, 1925.
It has not been found necessary to send for analysis any
samples of the piped water supply.
The South Essex Waterworks Company are proceeding with
a scheme for obtaining water supply from the River Stour.
Upon the completion of the Scheme the water will be utilized
throughout the Company's District but will not be the sole source
of supply, as the existing eight wells of the Company will still be
utilized, though to a less extent than at the present time.
