9. There shall be provided in connection with every
building or premises wherein or whereon any horse or other
beast of draught or burden, or any cattle or other animal
may be kept, a stable or place, separate and distinct from
any part of such building or premises which may be used
for human habitation, for keeping such horse, beast of
draught or burden, or cattle, and such stable or place shall
be properly paved with a hard, durable and impervious
pavement or concrete, evenly and closely laid, and so
sloped to a properly constructed channel and drain as

such building or premises, a suitable receptacle for dung,
manure, soil, filth, or other offensive or noxious matter,
which may, from time to time, be produced in the keeping
of any such animal in such building or upon such premises.
Such receptacle shall be constructed so that the bottom or
floor thereof shall not, in any case be lower than the surface
of the ground adjoining such receptacle, and in such a
manner and of such materials, and shall be maintained at
all times in such a condition as to prevent any escape of
the contents thereof, or any soakage therefrom into the
ground, or into the wall of any building. Such receptacle
shall be furnished with a suitable cover, and shall be kept
properly covered. Provided that where two or more
occupiers of buildings or premises wherein or whereon any
such animal as aforesaid is kept, are entitled to the use in
common of any receptacle for dung, manure, soil, filth, or
other offensive or noxious matter, and the continuance of
such use in common is not objected to by the Sanitary
Authority, the foregoing requirements shall so far as is
consistent apply to such receptacle.
