several plans, specifications and detail drawings were prepared in the Surveyor's
Department and ultimately approved by your Housing, &c., Committee.
Upon the 23rd September, 1892, tenders for the erection of a dwarf wall and
railings on the north side of the site for Recreation Ground were received, and the
tender of Messrs. Clark, Hunt & Co., of Shoreditch High Street, was accepted.
Upon the 30th December tenders were received and considered for fence wall
aud railings on the south and east sides of the Square, and the tender of Messrs.
Clark, Hunt & Co. was accepted.
