James Moore, 389, Bethnal Green-road.—This shed had been disused
for upwards of twelve months, it was structurally defective and without
proper drainage.—The licence was refused.
W. Holloway, 25, Arundel Street.—The building was entirely unfit for
the purpose, and had been disused for more than two years.—Licence
refused.
Samuel Wiseby, 87, Railway Arch, Three Colts Lane.—This shed was
not provided with proper conveniences, and was being used as a
paraffin oil store. No cows had been kept for upwards of twelve
months.—Licence refused.
Wm. Mansfield, Digby Street.—This licence was opposed by
reason of the yard in which the cowshed was placed being used as a
dust-shoot. Mr. Mansfield stated that he was rapidly removing the
accumulation of dust, and did not intend to receive any more.—The
licence was granted, but impounded until such time as the yard should
be clear of refuse.
A list of the cowsheds in the parish is given below, they call for
no special remark.
