State of Cottages. 

 . . Cottages in fair condition but not nearly sufficient for 

 the supply of labour ; not well supplied with water. 



. . Cottages pretty good, but overcrowded, seldom more 

 than two bedrooms, and occasionally only one. 



. . Cottages bad, not near enough of them, not conveniently 

 situated, often overcrowded ; baistardy and ante- 

 nuptial fornication very prevalent ; very badly 

 supplied with air and water. 



. . Cottages good, but not sufficient for the labour. 



. . Cottages good in every respect. 



, . Cottages upon the whole good and tolerably ventilated. 



. . Cottages generally good and sufficient for the population. 



. . Cottages very good in all respects. 



. . Cottages in fair condition. 



. . Cottages rather small. 



. . With some exceptions the cottages are in good condition. 



. . Cottages sufficient at present, but not enough to allow 

 of any increase of population. 



. . Cottages generally clean and comfortable, sufficient in 

 number, and generally well ventilated. 



There is still a great want of cottages for married farm labourers 

 and many of those in use are deficient in ventilation and sanitary 

 conveniences.
