one showing the proposed alterations and improvements,
which plans were submitted to, and
approved by, the Vestry.
BREWHOUSE YARD.
Application was made to the Yestry for permission
to erect iron gates at the entrance to Brewhouse
Yard, in order that they might be closed after dark,
and thus prevent the nuisances committed nightly
there. This Court has never been paved by the
Parish, but was lighted, and the Yestry gave their
consent for the gates to be erected subject to the
lamp being taken over by the owners, which was
done.
URINALS.
The whole of the public urinals in the Parish
were tarred and painted.
They were cleansed three times per day on Mondays,
Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, and twice a day
on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, and once
on Sundays. On Thursdays and Fridays the men
clear out the patent gullies in the Courts and Alleys,
hence the urinals only being cleansed twice instead
of three times.
STREET WATERING.
The street watering was done by the Vestry's
own vans, extra horses being hired as required.
