All the Slaughter-Houses, in respect of which
notice was given of the intention to apply for a
Licence, were inspected and reported upon.
In accordance with the recommendations of
that report the Vestry resolved to oppose the grant
of the Licence in two cases only. In one of these
cases the application was withdrawn; in the other,
the Magistrates having personally inspected the
premises, refused the Licence.
V. Cow Sheds.
On the 2nd of July, a detailed report was presented
to the Committee on this subject, stating the number
of premises occupied as Cow Sheds in the Parish,
and giving details in each case, as to the health of
the animals, and the dimensions, general condition,
drainage, ventilation and cleanliness of the
sheds or houses. The report further recommended
certain regulations, which were finally adopted
by the Vestry, in the form annexed.
That every cow-house be well paved and properly sloped to the
foot of the stalls, so as to lead into a channel with a sufficient fall
towards a trapped gulley.
That every cow-house be provided with a good trapped drain
for the entrance of fluid matter only into the sewer.
That every cow-house be furnished with an adequate supply
of water.
