PARK ROAD WHARF DEPOT.
The exposed condition of these premises (next
the Grand Surrey Canal, being adjacent to unlet
vacant ground), having been reported by your
Surveyor as the source of continual ;depredation
upon the Vestry's Stores, as well as loss of material
to a considerable extent—negotiations were entered
into for a Lease of this vacant Ground, as also
the two Cottages built thereon. These Cottages
having been repaired, it is proposed that in
arranging for their occupation the necessary protection
of the Yestry Property should be kept
in view.
NEW CHURCH ROAD.
The long contested question of a Right of
Footpath on the South side of this road, between
Southampton Street and Yestry Cottages, has at
length been arranged between the Yestry and the
Owner; and a new Kirbed Footpath with Tar-paving
has been ordered to be laid.
