98. City Slaughter House-Extension.-The extension southwards of the most westerly lairage shed and the addition of an upper storey to the same, referred to in last year's Report, were completed early in the year. The alterations to the Pig Slaughter House were then undertaken and these were completed by the end of the year, all liabilities being discharged. The alterations consisted of removing an internal wall and replacing it with brick piers in cement and erecting 8 double scalding pans to replace 10 old ones which were removed. Considerable changes were made in the plans originally prepared for this portion of the work, the slaughter house building being extended to include a space which had hitherto formed an open-air passageway along the east side of it.
The buildings are of red brick built in lime mortar and pointed in cement mortar. The new upper floor of the lairage shed is constructed of ferro-concrete supported on ferro-concrete beams resting on cast iron columns. The old roof has been re-erected over the new upper storey, The extension of the slaughter house is roofed with ferro-concrete. Small ferro-concrete bridges, 5 in number, connect the upper floor of the lairage shed with the floor of the slaughter house which, being situated on a higher terrace, is approximately at the same level.
