LIGHTING.

The Parish is at present supplied with Gas under contracts from the

Western Gas Company, the Imperial Gas Company, and the London Gas

Company.

Great attention has been given by the Committee, in the fixing new lamps,

and including the old ones there are now upwards of 1,068 fairly and

judiciously spread over the whole parish. Great facility has been

afforded by numbering the lamps, both in the communication with the Gas

Companies, and also as to their general repairs, and lighting.

I have endeavoured, in this my first Annual Report to draw your attention

to the works generally under your control, and executed under the powers

vested in you by the “Metropolis Local Management Act,” and I take this

opportunity of tendering my thanks for the support I have ever received

from you in the discharge of the important duties intrusted to me.

I have the honor to remain,

Gentlemen,

Your obedient Servant,

JAMES BROADBRIDGE,

SURVEYOR.
