Swimming Baths
There are two swimming baths in the area, one at the Highfield Hall
in the ownership of the Council, which measures 45ft. by 22ft.. The water is
subjected to chlorination on the "breakpoint principle" after precipitation
and filtration. Eight bacteriological samples taken at Highfield Hall
during the season were all satisfactory.
The other bath is at the Barrow Hedges Primary School and was built
by voluntary funds. Fourteen samples were taken from this bath and all
but one were satisfactory.
Offices
Twenty-seven inspections of offices were made, but no action was
necessary. The Regulations which the Secretary of State has power to
make under the Offices Act, have not yet been received.
