VESTRY OF PADDINGTON.

30th June, 1877.

the chief Works executed, and in reference to various

year ended Lady-day, 1877.
Highways.
In Albion Mews North and Chester Mews, the
old pebble and rag stones were taken away, broken up
and used for repairing macadamized roads. New
Granite Paving has been substituted, and the surface
rendered more suitable and convenient for traffic.
The carriage roads under the arch-ways of four
Mews have been paved with wooden blocks, at the
request of occupiers of adjoining premises, and at the
cost of the Vestry.
Four Cab Stands were paved with new Granite
Cubes, and thereby rendered healthy for men and
horses.
