Street, 7_mworth, previous?:.• oimed by Yrs. Buckley, and
find the repairs necessary for immediate occupatin as a
Girls' Hostel as—under:The nrorerty is in splendid repair. Structurally
sound fl)ors and roof in good order. The position
is ideal for the pur-rose, end havirw been previously
altered and used as a Boys' Hostel reouires very
little immediate alteration before occupation.
I would suTest that the oh le of the exterior work
be painted including front fence, 7Tith the exception

light fittings and ins- a7lation generally, reconstruction of bathroom urst-irs with the addition of one
new bath. The addition of one 1_) -throom on back
verandah for the sta2f. 7econstr-ction of kitchen with

A brick .)ciditi n at fr nt resuires attention and if would
suggest two tie rodd to the two end piers. A future
programme '2ou:d include the attanA_on to all ground
lay-out. Surface draining, brick retaining wall to
tennis court, out buildins will need a tention at this
stage. 7: see no reason Thy the occupation should -he
held un if the items mentioned in the Previous portion
of this report are attended to.
