"David Davies, New Lamb, Tregaron, Was summoned by Mr. David Williams, clerk to the sanitary authority, for having on his premises a pigsty so as to be a nuisance. Defendant did not appear, and Sergeant Roberts said the man had had to leave the town, and therefore wished the case to be adjourned. Service of summons having been proved, the Sanitary Inspector said, a complaint was made in March last year that a nuisance existed on the premises of the defendant. The manure heap was then carried away, but the pigsty was not removed. A further notice was served upon him in February last, to abate a nuisance arising from a manure heap and pigsty. Defendant did nothing until the summons was served upon him, when he removed the manure heap, allowing the sty to remain. The pigsty was within fifteen yards of a house, and on rising ground, so that the liquid ran down into the house. Witness thought the nuisance injurious to health. The Bench ordered the removal of the pigsty within a fortnight. " CN 30 March 1877

"Nuisance. Anne Davies, of the New Lamb, Tregaron, was summoned by J. P. Rees, sanitary inspector, Tregaron, for refusing to comply with a notice to abate a nuisance on her premises arising from want of a drain to carry away the slop and waste water from the premises. The complainant proved service of notice upon defendant. He said there was a drain there, and that he had tried it that morning, and it seemed to carry away the water all right. The offence was more in the way of not using the drain than to provide a drain. She threw the slops on the road, and not into the drain. Mr W. Jones observed that the notice was for not providing a drain, and the Inspector had admitted in his evidence that there was a drain there, and that it worked properly. The Bench, after some consultation, decided to dismiss the case on the ground that the notice had not properly defined what was the nuisance complained of." Cmn Jnl 28 Feb 1902
