Reference to the statistical table on Improvement Areas shows one Improvement Area to have
been declared. This area was declared by the Hayes and Harlington Urban District Council in
November, 1964, and included 108 older type properties lacking in one or more of the standard
amenities, situated principally in Cranmer Road, Cromwell Road, North Road, Tudor Road and
the south side of Wood End Green Road, Hayes.
Attempts have been made to persuade owners of tenanted properties in the area to apply for
Improvement grants to secure the provision of standard amenities, and the position at the end of
1965 was that 73 of the 108 houses were lacking in standard amenities.
