Five lighted by the Chartered Gas Company under the Railway in
Sun Street are burning day and night, and are paid for by the Railway

The cost of lighting the Parish was £4922 6s. l1d. for the year,
after deducting the £42 l1s. 4d. which the Railway Company contributed
for lamps as above.

As regards the general condition of the Parish, I beg to state that
the carriageway paving is in very good order, as the greater portion of
it is composed of new work. There are a few places which must, before
long, be re-paved— such as
High Street, Shoreditch (from Bateman's Row to the
Boundary)
Hoxton Street (portions of.)
Worship Street
Holywell Row, and
New North Street.
