Paving
streets at
expense of
owners.
One of the important powers conferred on the Vestry is that of having
certain classes of streets made up at the expense of the owners.
Under the original Act some difficulties were experienced, but
still the Vestry succeeded in getting some works done.
They were as follows:—
| Year. | Names of Streets. | Year. | Names of Streets. |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1857 | Crombie's-row | 1858 | Albert-road |
| 1858 | Devonshire-street East | Norfolk-street, (N. W.) | |
| East-street | York-place, (C. W.) | ||
| Albert-street |
The difficulties mentioned above were removed by the Metropolis Management Amendment Act, 1862, and the Vestry were then able to proceed more effectually, and since then they have made the necessary orders in the following cases.
