BOROUGH OF MAIDEN AND COOMBE
ANNUAL REPORT
OF
THE MEDICAL OFFICER OF HEALTH
1958
Public Health Department,
Municipal Offices,
New Maiden.
June, 1959.
To the Mayor, Aldermen and Councillors of the
Borough of Maiden and Coombe.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I have the honour to submit my Annual Report for the year 1958
which has been prepared in accordance with Ministry of Health Circular
2^/58.
The health of the community remains good and the vital statistics
compare favourably with those of the country as a whole.
As this is my last Annual Report after serving the Borough for
eleven years, I should like to end on a personal note. My wife and I
very much appreciated the warm welcome we received when I first took
up my appointment and we have valued highly the friendship and hospitality
shown us by the Mayors, Aldermen and Councillors throughout the
years. This cordial relationship has greatly helped me in my work and
I shall always look back on the time I was with you with pleasure.
I am also grateful to the other Chief Officers and their staffs
for their friendly co-operation. Finally I wish to thank the staff of
the Public Health Department for their loyal and efficient support and
to make special mention of the debt I owe to the Chief Public Health
Inspectors, first Mr. Tunbridge and then Mr. Wood, for the help and
friendship they have always given me.
I am,
Mr. Mayor, Aldermen and Councillors,
Your obedient servant,
J. B. MORWOOD.
Medical Officer of Health.
