Four flushers and one laborer were employed in cleansing and

for the year.
The wages of one man cleansing the urinals for the year was
£65 12s. 7d.
As regards the general condition of the parish I can state that
the carriageway paving, with a few exceptions, is in very good
order; the following are the exceptions which must very soon be
repaved or relaid—
Paul Street
New Inn Yard
Scrutton Street (Curtain Road to Holywell Row)
Clifton Street (portions)
Bevenden Street
Goldsmiths' Row (narrow way)
The footway paving except in a few instances is in very fair
order.
The condition of the sewers is also satisfactory.
I am, Gentlemen,
Your obedient servant,
GEORGE CHARLES PERRETT,
Town Hall, June, 1879. Surveyor.
