in the Parish of Lewisham, and 4,845 superficial yards of old pathway
relaid, and 6,395 superficial yards of tar pavement painted in
the Hamlet of Penge.
An arrangement was made with the Crystal Palace District
Gas Company to rent the Yard of the Old Gas Works, Southend
Lane, at the nominal sum of £4 per annum. An iron shed has
been erected, and tar pavement has been made there for some time
past. The yard will be very handy as a store for material, and
in the winter the shed will be useful to put carts, &c., under.
During the year 404 cubic yards of tar pavement were made for
Highways.
The following tar pavement was made by the Board's men
and used in the District during the year, in making up new
streets:—
