On visiting No. 7, Wormald Place and 26, Fulford Street, I found these premises were
used for the purpose of Roker skin dressing. No nuisance was found to exist at 7, Worrnald
Place. At 26, Fulford Street, the trade was carried on as to bo a nuisance, and upon the
Medical Officer of Health certifying that such was a nuisance, or injurious, or dangerous to
health, proceedings were instituted against George Tucker, the occupier. the magistrate
adjourned the case for a month on the defendant promising to abate the nuisance, the
summonses being subsequently withdrawn upon the payment of 12s. 6d. costs.
I attended Greenwich Police Court at the request of the London County Council, as a
witness on their behalf, in support of summons against James Judd, of the London and
Brighton Railway Company's arches, Rotherhithe New Road, for a contravention of the Public
Health (London) Act, 1891; the case having been proved against the defendant, the
magistrate imposed penalties amounting to £50 11s., including costs.
Complaints having been received from Messrs. Croggan & Co., of offensive smells
arising from the Railway arches in the occupation of James Judd, and the Medical Officer
of Health having certified that such was a nuisance, or injurious to health, proceedings
were instituted and the defendant fined £5 and 2s. costs.
Workshops.
On receiving complaint from Her Majesty's Superintending Inspector of Workshops
relative to the dirty condition of a workshop, situated at 36, Cranham Road, Notice was
served after inspection to remedy this nuisance, which was complied with.
On inspecting the workshop adjoining 36, Ilderton Road, and in the occupation of
Messrs. Rogers, I found the sanitary conveniences were insufficient for the workpeople
employed there. Notice was served to provide the requisite accommodation, the works
being carried out under the supervision of the Surveyor.
