Diversion of Church Path.
At the meeting of the Vestry held on the 1st June, 1887, a letter
was read from Messrs. Dalton and Jessett, for Mr. Tunley, agreeing to
pay £150 towards the expense of diverting the Church Path from
Delaford Street to Lillie Road, and asking whether the Vestry would
accept £40 towards the expenses of diverting the path from Mendora
Road to Delaford Street, when it was resolved to sanction the diversion
from Mendora Road to Delaford Street on payment of the sum of £40.
On the 8th June the Works Committee instructed the Surveyor to
obtain twelve boundary stones, and in conjunction with Mr. Dyer and
the Churchwardens, to define the Church Path from Lillie Road to
Greyhound Road. On the 5th October, 1887, the Vestry resolved that
the highway called Church Path leading from Delaford Street into
Lillie Road, also from Mendora Road to Delaford Street, and from Lillie
Road to Greyhound Road be entirely stopped up as unnecessary, and
that this Parish do apply to two Justices of the Peace in and for the
County of Middlesex, to view the aforesaid highway so resolved to be
entirely stopped up as unnecessary. The attention of the Law and
Parliamentary Committee having been called to the fact that Mr. Whitehead
was excavating a large quantity of sand from this land, on the 17th
November, 1887, it was resolved that the attention of the Freeholder be
called thereto, and that he be informed that unless the same is desisted
in the Vestry will be compelled to oppose the application to stop up
and divert Church Path. At the meeting of the Law and Parliamentary
Committee held on the 4th January, 1888, the Solicitor produced the
clauses to be put upon the Vestry Agenda, the form of Resolution to be
passed at the Vestry Meeting, and the forms of consent and notices to
Justices in this matter, which were approved and referred to the Vestry
for sealing. The Solicitor stated that with regard to Diversion No. 8, a
representative from the United Land Company was in waiting with cheques
value £220, which he, the Solicitor, advised the Committee to accept, and
it was resolved that the cheques be received in full satisfaction of this
Vestry's claim for closing Church Path No. 3, and that the Clerk do
give receipt for same. At the Meeting of the Vestry held on the llth
January, 1888, the above resolutions, as far as concerned Diversions
Nos. 2 and 3, were passed, and the documents relating thereto sealed,
