The Mercers' Company having addressed a complaint to the

of Lady Mico's Almshouses through the use of the Urinal in Belgrave
Street, Ratcliff, the matter was referred to the Ratcliff Committee,
who, after inspection, recommended that the Urinal should be
removed, which was accordingly done, and a street rest formed on
the site, with a Lamp in the centre.
The attention of the Board having been called to the need of
Urinal accommodation in the neighbourhood of the Limehonre
Railway Station, the matter was referred to the Works Committee,
who having viewed the locality, recommended the Board to put up
a Urinal with three compartments in the angle next the Station.

and the works have been carried out by the Contractor of the
