Districts for Parliamentary purposes; although if it were a
case of Polling Districts for the County Council Elections,
it seems possible that the Council might be able to help the
Vestry under Section 64 of the Municipal Corporations Act,
1882.
Wards 4 & 5
Your Committee are of opinion that the
existing boundaries of Wards 4 and 5, should be altered as
follows:—
(a.) That the division between the} two Wards should
be the centre of Queen's Road, High Street, and Peckham
Road.
Ward 4
Polling
Districts.
(b.) That the boundary of Nos. 4 and 5 Polling
Districts should be by an imaginary line drawn
from the boundary of the Parish across Old Kent Road, by
the Canal Bridge along the east side of Peckham Park
Road, Lower Park Road, and Stafford Street, to boundary
of Ward, so that all the houses in these thoroughfares, and
west of the line, should be included in No. 4 Polling
District; and all east, No. 5 Polling District.
Ward 5
Polling
Districts.
(c.) That the boundary of Nos. 6 and 7 Polling
Districts should be by an imaginary line drawn
along the centre of McDermott Road, crossing Rye Lane to
Copeland Road, running along the rear of the houses on the
east side of Copeland Road to junction with Brayard's
Road to the London, Chatham, and Dover Railway line to
boundary of Parish. And that all roads and streets north
of the line, shall be included in No. 6 Polling District; and
all roads and streets south, in No. 7 Polling District.
These proposed divisions are more particularly shewn
in the map prepared by your Surveyor.
