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.
