VILLIERS STREET.
Since the last Annual Report, a new 3 ft. 9 in. x 2 ft. 6 in.
one-brick sewer, with ventilating shaft at north end, has
been constructed in this street, by Messrs. Abbott and
Hopwood, at a cost of £534, two hundred pounds of
which sum have been paid to the Vestry by the Charing
Cross Hotel Company. The final certificate for the work
has not been given by me, and a portion of the cost
remains unpaid. The particulars of the account will therefore
appear in the next Annual Report.
