Personal inspection by sub-committee no.1, consisting of, R.B. Read, Esq., and M. Chapman, Esq.
Eleventh day, Monday, 6 Dec, 1875
We visited Arthur-place in Kent-street (Burnell owner). This place comprises nine houses, two rooms each, 10 1/2 ft. x 13 ft. 8in., and 8 1/2 ft. high, rented at 6s. a week. Ventilation indifferent ; tenants complain that when the doors are closed the place is like an oven ; there is no stench trap to the drain" -- Excerpt from: Sydney City and Suburban Sewage and Health Board : Eleventh progress report.
