a610cd39-1848-437c-b7f8-548520c5f887 | The year 1959 was notable for a marked increase in the number of wasps' nests reported.

926c7adb-86ad-4152-b276-e304d8f15fb7 | As a result of this policy, old houses badly designed, of poor appearance, and often crowded together, are being given disproportionate values, thereby hindering proper re-development. It is evident that, despite the continuance of protective control for the lower rated houses and flats, many tenants have become nervou... |
26b6a717-7034-4c8c-a363-f86fde7eb937 | Here again the demand for accommodation of any kind results in comparatively large sums being paid to keep this poor type of dwelling in occupation.
