CHANNELLING OF ROADS.
A number of roads in this parish require channelling. This
work was being carried out by the Fulham District Board of Works
in sections, the cost being provided for by borrowing money under
the loan schedule. In the latter part of 1885 the work was, however,
discontined, probably on account of the approaching separation
of the parishes.
The roads that are not channelled are contained in the following
list. Many of them do not immediately require it, and I
have placed the names in the order in which I think they require
attention.
The cost of doing the channelling will be almost precisely
2s. a foot run.
it will, however, be added to in many parts by the
cost of varying and altering the levels of the roads, and new
gullies and connections of the same with drains will have to
be provided.
