SEWERS.
The sewer in Rushmead-street (late Elizabeth-street) having for
some time past been found of inadequate depth to efficiently drain
the property adjacent to it, in consequence of the insufficient depth of
the sewer in Old Bethnal Green-road, it was resolved to take up
the 12 in. pipes and substitute pipes 18 in. in diameter. This has
been carried out by men in the employ of the Vestry, the new pipes
being laid at a much lower level, and connected with the new brick
sewer in Mansford-street, on the Remmington Mills Estate.
The lowering of the sewer in Rushmead-street afforded an opportunity
for lowering the pipe sewer in Sheldon-place ; after consideration
this was carried out, one-third of the estimated cost being, by arrangement,
borne by Mr. T. C. Everitt, and the remainder by the Vestry.
The* drains from the new urinal in Queen-street, Cambridge-road,
have been laid in by men employed by the Vestry.
Four hundred and ninety-four loads of sewer deposit have been
removed from various sewers and carted away.
Sixty-six connections with the Parish sewers have been made for
the better drainage of private property.
The following brick and pipe sewers have been cleansed and
repaired where found necessary :—
Austin-street Ely-place
