Lordship Lane. From rear of Townley Road to and
opposite Woodwarde Road. Simultaneously with the
paving of the footways of this new street, the roadway was
made good to the new paths and channelling was laid on

acquired here for the purpose of widening this thoroughfare
from the rear of No. 3, Waghorn Street to Reedham Street,
by which the road is much improved, and a dangerous
obstruction abolished.

improvement has been carried out here by the dedication to
the use of the public, of a strip of land in front of the late

and fence in front of 2, Warwick Villas, to a line agreed
upon by your Committee and the owner; the widening of
the road at this point being thereby secured.
