In consequence of the Charity Commissioners for England and
Wales refusing to give their sanction to the Sale of the Freehold land in
Haberdashers Walk, Hoxton, the Vestry Hall Committtee have selected a
site of ground at the corner of King-street, and Old-street-road, for which
(if all other particulars are satisfactory) they are to give £2850. The
arrangements for the purchase are still under the consideration of the
Committee.
The first Drinking Fountain in this Parish has been erected by
Jeremiah Long, Esq., opposite the Terminus of the Eastern Counties
Railway, High-street, Shoreditch, and presented to the parish,—It
was opened to the public on Monday, the 12th May, 1862.
