Peckham and East Dulwich Tramways. The Tramways
were from Peckham by way of London Road and Stanstead
Road, and over Catford Bridge to Rushey Green. This Bill
was also withdrawn, as the Board would not give their consent.
LEWISHAM PARISH BOUNDARY.
The boundary of Lewisham Parish was walked upon the 24th,
25th, and 26th of May. This had not been done for years, and
it took many days for me to find the old boundary marks, some
of which, as shown upon the Ordnance Survey, could not be found.
Certain encroachments had taken place which were duly noted and
set right. New iron boundary posts were put up and new iron
plates, under my instructions, by the direction of the Overseers
of Lewisham Parish. I walked the whole of the boundary.
FLOODING, FRONTAGE LINES, &c.
During the year there was no flooding to speak of in the
Ravensbourne, Poole, or Quaggy Rivers.
In the course of the year fifteen applications relative to
Frontage Lines were sent from the Superintending Architect
of the Metropolitan Board of Works for suggestions, and 105
plans and tracings prepared in my office, together with a large
number of reports, estimates, and letters written.
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Your obedient humble Servant,
JOHN CARLINE, C.E., Mem. San. Inst.,
Surveyor to the Board.
The Board of Works for the
Lewisham District.
