To the Vestry of the Hamlet of Mile End Old Town.
Gentlemen,
I beg to report to you under the Artizans and
Labourers' Dwellings' Act of 1868, No. 1, Sampson's Court,
Mile End Road which is in such a condition as to be
dangerous to health so as to be unfit for human habitation
for the following reasons:
I he yard at the back of the house is so built over as
to prevent proper ventilation.
I here is not sufficient air space either in front or behind
the house. The building in front of the house and
the high wall at the back prevent both ventilation
and light to the ground floor rooms.
There is no room for a proper receptacle for the dust.
I am,
Your obedient servant,
(Signed) THOMAS TAYLOR,
Medical Officer of Health.
Vestry Hall, Bancroft Road.
