XXVII—Fire Station,
The London County Council having determined
to establish a Fire Station in Edgware Road, St.
Marylebone, and to abandon the one in Hermitage
Street, Paddington will no longer possess a fire establishment
within the Parish. Strong efforts were
made by the Vestry to induce the Council to enlarge
and improve the Hermitage Street Station, but as
the Council were unable to secure a suitable site in
the Parish, Ratepayers will have to content themselves
with a Station beyond the boundary.
XXVIII.—Gates & Bars,
The London County Council having obtained
powers for the abolition of street obstructions in the
Metropolis, the undermentioned Gates and Bars
have been removed:—
Kensington Gardens Square and Princes Square.
Norfolk Square by Cambridge Place.
Sussex Square.
