Town Hall,
Fulham, S.W.
To the Mayor, Aldermen and Councillors of the
Metropolitan Borough of Fulham.
Sir and Gentlemen,
I have the honour to present to you my Annual
Report on the Vital Statistics and the conditions affecting the
health of the Borough for the year 1904.
POPULATION.
The population of Fulham as enumerated at the Census
taken on April 6th, 1901, was 137,289, having increased from
113,781 during the previous five years.
The population in the middle of 1904, estimated on the
assumption that the rate of increase which prevailed between
1896 and 1901 has been maintained since, was 152,482, and on
this figure the statistics in this report are based.
