* * * * * Into the western branch of the Counter Creek are carried by various drains the surface drainage of the meadow land, extending from Kensal Green to the boundaries of the parish—east and west, up to the Lancaster Road; at this point commence the sewers which have been constructed for the drainage of the neighbourhood of Notting Hill, Norlands, and Westbourne Grove, all of which have their outlets into the Counter Creek, passing over the Uxbridge Road. North of Kensington Road, east and west, the drainage is to the Counters Creek. On the south side of the Kensington Road including all such portions of Kensington New Town, on the west side of Victoria Road, extending to the Pembroke Road, the outlet of the sewers is also into the Counters Creek. * * * * * The area of the parish extending south from its northern boundaries at Kensal Green, east and west to the Western Road, and from thence all the southern and western portion, including Kensington New Town are drained into the Counters Creek. This portion of the parish includes the highest and lowest land, being 126 ft. at the south of Notting Hill Square, and 17ft. at St. Mark’s Road—ordnance datum. * * * * * THE CHURCH STREET SEWER, commences in the Gloucester Road, opposite Canning Place, continues along the Gloucester Road, receiving the Drainage from Victoria Grove, Gore Road, and adjacent Streets, proceeds by and past Hereford Square to the termination of the Gloucester Road, into the Old Brompton Road, turns eastward, receives the Sewers from Gloucester Grove East and West, continues southerly down Selwood Lane unto the limits of the parish in the Fulham Road. * * * * * This Sewer is carried through a portion of the parish, the land of which has been till recently under culture as Market Gardens. The newly-formed roads here of the Royal Exhibition Commissioners Mr. Jackson and others have given an impulse to building in this locality to which this Sewer will be an important outlet for the drainage. * * * * * THE QUEEN STREET SEWER, commences on the east side of the Gloucester Road, Kensington, proceeds southerly in an irregular form, through the land belonging to the Royal Exhibition Commissioners—forms a junction with a branch from Park Lane, continues in an irregular and uneven course into Cromwell Lane, and then westerly into the Old Brompton Road, thence south easterly down Pelham Road, into Pelham Place, where it receives the drainage from Alfred Place West, Thurloe Square, and South Street—from Pelham Place it is directed westerly into Pelham Crescent, and thence westward along Fulham Road, receiving at Sydney Place, the partial drainage of Onslow Square, and then it proceeds to its outlet from the parish by Sydney Street. * * * * *
