in a part of Hampton Square, after the condemnation of eight
houses therein, and the tables on pp. 55, 56 and 57, give details of
work carried out in other streets and places.
One may express the hope that the remarkable results accruing
from the Westfields improvements will lead to similar improvements
being made in Lilian, Fanny, and Glentham Roads—the
lowest lying parts of the district; and that some amelioration may
be effected at Littleworth End ; in the curious congeries of buildings
behind Mortlake High Street; in Lifford's Place; in Jones'
Yard, and elsewhere.
In my opinion, however, the proper paving, channelling, &c.,
of White Hart Lane, now an important artery of communication
and a considerable marketing centre, is absolutely imperative, and
should not be longer delayed.
The Water Supply of the district is quite satisfactory,
and does not call for comment this year.
Reference should, however, be made to Pale Well and to
Beverley Brook.
Pale Well should be cleansed and kept properly in order, lest
it become a nuisance.
The Beverley Brook, with its tributaries and ditches, ought
also to be cleansed, and kept cleansed.
No doubt in course of time some communications on the
subject will pass between the Council and the Port of London
Authority.
During 1909 a boy who had drunk water from the Brook
developed Typhoid Fever, and was admitted to the Hospital.
