The Board of Works of the Halifax Union, having arranged the
sewerage of the Poorhouse, Union Street, Halifax, have
applied Mr Henry Stott's (West Vale) system of ventilating
sewers.
The main sewers of the house are connected to the draught of the
boiler-fires by earthenware pipes and made air-tight by a simple
apparatus made of cast-iron.
The draught draws all the sewage-gases to the fires, through which
they are passed and taken up the chimney stack.
Thus, the sewers are constantly and perfectly cleansed from their
poisonous gases, and all parts of the house rendered free from smells
... since the adoption of Mr Stott's plans for sewer
ventilation at West Vale, there had been a great improvement in the
salubrity of the district and the mortality had decreased
During the last few months, the town of Oldham has been adopting this
system and are ... perfectly satisfied with it as one of the best
sanitary improvements of the day.
