RIGHT HAND SIDE OF OLDHAM ROAD AND ANCOATS, COMPRISING
Number of men employed in houses visited. Number of women and girls employed in houses visited. REMARKS.
Lever Street  1  1 Some of the houses are damp, and some squalid in appearance. Rheumatism was complained of by both males and females, therefore it will be seen that the time when this complaint is not felt is almost wholly devoted to work. Neglect of cleanliness of both home and person induces vermin, of which we saw several sickening instances, which must in some cases adhere to the clothes being made up.

CHORLTON-ON-MEDL0CK AND HYDE ROAD DISTRICT, COMPRISING
Harris Court, Richmond St   2  1 A portion of these are amongst the homes of respectable working-men; but some of the places that were visited need inspection, in the interest of their neighbours. The condition of the workers was wretched. In one case the person resorted to the system of pawning one portion of the work whilst finishing the other; the consequence can be better imagined than described.
