or the Commissioners or persons liable to repair the streets or
ways over the same Arches respectively, and such covenants
and conditions should be enforced by them as if they were
grantors of the reversion of the premises therein respectively
comprised, and that the same Arches should be kept in repair
in pursuance of such covenants, or by and at the expense of
the said respective Wards or Parishes to which the same should
respectively belong, or of the Commissioners or persons liable
to repair the pavements of the Streets or Ways over the same
Arches respectively.
The Commissioners referred to were those appointed under
the Act 6th Geo. III., for paving, cleansing, lighting, watching
and regulating the Streets and Places in the Western Division of
the Borough of Southwark, and to whose duties, so far as the
Parishes of St. Saviour and St. Olave were concerned, the
Boards of Works for St. Saviour's and St. Olave's succeeded
after the passing of the Metropolis Local Management Act, in
the year 1855.
The proportion of the rentals to which this Board will be
entitled is equal to about 88 per cent., by far tho greater
portion of the Arches being in St. Saviour's.
The matter stands referred to tho Paving and General
Purposes Committee, with power to call in any professional or
other assistance that may bo necessary. An abstract of the
clauses in the Acts of Parliament relating to the Arches, and a
fuller explanation of the Board's title thereto, is contained in
Appendix "A."
