Details of a street and building plan for Nos 23-31 at the western end of Chester Street, Kennington (now Chester Way) - also shown are Nos 1-7 Charles Place on Kennington Road. The drawing appears to illustrate the sewer system behind the properties. It is noted: 'the sewer is chocked up with deposits, the ground should be opened to make a proper inspection'. The Sir Sidney Smith public house is prominent along with the outdoor privvies in the yards, water butts and pumps. From Drainage Records
