Queen Street.
The Board have re-opened negotiations for the improvement
of Queen Street, by putting back the boundary fence of the
churchyard, and hope to be able to effect this work during the
ensuing year.
Brook Street.
In course of the progress of the paving works, at the cost of
owners of property in Brook Street, Hammersmith, the Board
obtained the consent of the landowners for the removal of the
Bar which stood at the Queen Street end of the road, and
there is now an uninterrupted thoroughfare between Bridge
Road and Queen Street
Blythe Lane.
Previously to commencing the construction of the second
portion of the Blythe Lane Sewer, the Board entered into
communication with the owners of the land abutting on this
road, with a view to the improvement of the thoroughfare,
which resulted in a give-and-take line being agreed with the
owners on either side of the lane extending from Shepherds
Bush Road to Masbro' Road,— the Board undertaking, to
erect a rough fence at certain points of the new boundary, at
a very small cost; and the lane has been widened from
Shepherds Bush Road to Masbro' Road from its original
breadth of about 22 feet to an uniform width of 40 feet.
Uxbridge Road.
The Board are glad to be able to report that they have

Board undertaking to erect a rough post-and-rail fence to
mark the new boundary upon land given-up adjoining Aldine
Lodge.
North-Pole Road.
An improvement has also been carried out in this road by
arrangement with the War Office,— the Board setting-back
the post-and-rail fence upon the north side of the road from
the Railway Arch to Wood Lane.
Other Street Improvements.
The Board have had under lengthened consideration the
question of various important improvements, and are now
