pipe sewer in rear of the houses, the Vestry ordered
new 6 in. pipe drains to be laid from the brick
sewer in Woodfield Place to the water closets in the
yards of the said houses.
In compliance with the order, 6 in. pipe drains,
together with all necessary connections therewith,
have been constructed to 14 houses. A 9 in. pipe
drain from the gardens of No. 8, and other houses
in Woodfield Terrace, was found connected with the
drain of No. 9, Woodfield Place, which had to be
disconnected, and then continued to the sewer in
the roadway in Woodfield Place as a separate outlet.
The whole of the works were executed at a cost of
£387 5s. 11d.

been constructed by the owner (Mrs. Gooch), at a
cost of £20 16s. Od. prior to the Vestry's order, this
amount has since been paid to her by the Vestry.
Under the public roadways and footways there
have been constructed, at the cost of the parties
making application, 123 drains from houses and
other buildings, in lieu of drains which, upon examination,
were found unfit for drainage purposes.
The re-construction of the before-mentioned
drains, repairs to sewers, fixing traps to house and
gulley drains at sewers, and other incidental works,
have been carried out at a cost of £2,342 7s. 11d.
