During the year the New Offices at Catford were opened. I
commenced to prepare plans and specification, &c., for the erection
of stables, cart sheds, &c., on the ground adjoining the new offices.
A shed for an ambulance and disinfecting apparatus was erected in
the Penge Stone Yard. The first instalment of the Sydenham Green
improvement was carried out, viz., the diversion of the old footpath,
and kerbing, channelling, and asphalting the new path.
