Two cottages in Albion Row belonging to Cambridge Corporation and next to the Nag’s Head public house are in such an unsatisfactory state that it would be inadvisable to execute any repairs; they should be pulled down and new cottages erected in their place. By setting back the frontage it will increase the width of the road and render a further improvement possible when the lease of the adjoining property falls in.
