public way and paved. The same owners, being desirous of bringing
out the flank of the building referred to and the fronts of two proposed
buildings adjoining in Hornsey Road beyond the general line of
buildings on the south-west side of that road, agreed to erect the
proposed buildings at a distance of 45 foot from the opposite side of
the road, and to give up the ground between on condition that the
Vestry removed the urinal from that part of the road, made up the
ground given up, and paved a footpath in front of the buildings. To
these terms the Vestry assented, and the ground, which is an average
width of 10 feet 10 inches and contains an area of 126 super yards, has
been given up and the urinal removed. The road making and paving
work is in progress.
Russell Road.—North-east side, in front of the "Bedford Arms''
public-house. The gravel footway has been paved, the Vestry and the
owner of the premises each paying a moiety of the cost. The Vestry's
proportion of the cost amounted to £13. 10s.
Highbury Park.— West side. A row of sub-kerb has been placed
at the high part of the footway from and including part of No. 53 to
No. 57; and from the latter place to and including No. 61, two rows
have been placed, at a cost of £22. 11s. 2d.
Highbury Grove.— West side in front of No. 37 and 39. A piece
of ground which was surrendered at the time the houses were built has
been made up and formed into a footway, a kerb laid, the ground
paved and a pitched channel laid at a cost of £16. 2s. 11d. This was
the only part of the road where no footway existed.

by Holloway Road have been removed by agreement with the freeholder,
who made it a condition that the Vestry should erect the gates
in a yard off Upper Street which is the property of the freeholder.
The cost of the work amounted to £15. 15s. 11d.
