Plans, Estimates, and Apportionments have been
prepared and adopted by the Vestry for paving the
following new streets, viz.:—
and the work has been carried out in the following:—
Digby Walk
Eastman Street
Grauby Row
Gales Gardens
Havelock Place
Ion Square
North Place
Margarot Place
Sweet Apple Square
Thomas Passage
Victoria Mews
It has been necessary to take Police Court proceedings
in several cases to recover the amounts due, and in the
case of Thomas Passage, where the owner refused to
pay, an action was commenced in the High Court of
Justice, but after some months' delay and considerable
trouble in obtaining evidence in support of the case of
the Vestry, the money was paid without the case going
for trial.
During the year the sum of £1,351 1s. 2d. has been
collected and paid in to the credit of the "New Streets'
Account."
