REDCAR – BOARD OF HEALTH. 

            The monthly meeting of the Board took place on Monday (13/10) last, present Messrs E. W. Lennard, chairman; J. Mallaby,  R. P. Johnston, and J. G. Thompson, clerk; and M. Crabtree, surveyor. The minutes of the last meeting, were read and confirmed. Several minutes were continued. On the subject of the contract for the purchase of the gas lamps, the Surveyor reported that the purchase money was £91. 6s. 6d, and not £76  9s. 4d as he had previously stated; and the Clerk was instructed to have the contract altered accordingly and completed. The Clerk reported that the sum of £9. 1s. 8d., the amount of the water cart repairs, had been paired by the Highway Board immediately on application, and the matter was settled. A plan of a wooden shop intended to be directed by Robert Abbey in George Street was approved; but one of the intended erection of a dwelling-house and shop by Thos. Rowland in High Street, adjoining the Masonic Hall, was rejected on the ground that the notice accompanying the plan referred to cottages which were not shown on the plan. Cheques amounting to £86. 8s. 4d., having being passed, the meeting terminated.
