Purchase plan rejected

A proposal that Mitcham Council should buy White Cottage, at Lower Green West has been rejected. The borough engineer (Mr Riley Schofield) reported that to convert the house into two flats would cost £1,150 and the borough treasurer (Mr E.C. Clay) has stated that the capital outlay would be in the region of £3,800. The estimated net annual loss would be £139, of the which the Government would pay £104.
