In pursuance of a resolution of the Vestry made on the 17th of June, 1881, a
number of the Vestrymen visited the Charity Estates at Stratford and Plaistow, on the
12th July, 1881, and reported to the Vestry that various houses and premises on the
Stratford Estate were in a state of dilapidation, and that they were of opinion a survey
of such dilapidation should be made and notices given to the leaseholders to put the
property in proper repair. That at the Plaistow Estate, there appeared to be little
progress made with the building operations since the last visit of the Committee of the
Vestry. On the 6th September, 1881, the Vestry passed a resolution as follows, viz.:
"Resolved, that a competent surveyor be appointed to survey and draw up a speci"fication
of the repairs necessary to be executed to the houses and premises on the
"Stratford Charity Estate, and that notices be served upon the leaseholders of the
"property requiring the execution of such repairs."
Mr. George Legg, the Surveyor of Sewers, was appointed to survey for dilapidations
at the Stratford Charity Estate accordingly.
