NORTH DEVON.
THE COLLETON HILL TOWN ESTATE, NEAR TIVERTON.
MESSRS. PAGE and CAMERON have been
favoured with instructions to Offer for SALE by AUC-
TION, at the MART, London, in the Month of October next, in
One Lot, (if not previously disposed of by Private Contract,)
A valuable FREEHOLD ESTATE,
known as the
"COLLETON-HILL TOWN ESTATE,"
in the Parish of Witheridge,
in North Devon,
consisting of about 270 Acres of excellent Meadow, Pas-
ture, and Arable Land, divided into convenient enclosures, ex-
tremely well fenced and watered, together with about 130 Acres
of other Land, full of thriving Larch (admirably adapted for
Railway Sleepers), Fir, Oak, Ash, Elm, and other Timber, varying
from 20 to 30 years' growth, laid out in detached Plantations
over various parts of the Estate, in a tasteful and Park-like
manner.

I The whole Estate of 400 Acres lies most compact and in a ring
fence, with two good Roads intersecting it. Near the centre of the
Property, and in a sheltered and delightful spot, stands an un-
finished, but most substantially-built, Mansion, erected by the
late Sir James Roussel! Colleton, Baronet, deceased, from excel-
lent Stone found upon the Estate, which it yields in abundance;
thus furnishing also appropriate materials for any drainage that
may be required.
The Tithes are commuted at the exceedingly low Annual Pay-
ment of ~13 10s. 4d., and the Land-tax is only .£4 14s. annually.
In consequence of a suit for foreclosing a Mortgage upon the
Estate, now terminating, it has remained unlet and but partially
cultivated during the last few years; and it offers most unusual
advantages—labour being cheap and materials so abundant—to
any enterprising man, fond of Agricultural pursuits and the
pleasures of improving his own property; indeed, to Capitalists
of every class, it affords an opportunity of making a profitable
and safe investment, and such a one as is rarely brought into the
market for public competition.
The Estate lies in a fine Sporting country, and close to it the
Tiverton Hounds have a favourite meet. It is distant from
Tiverton, where there is Railway communication, about 8 miles,
10 miles from Southmolton, 8 miles from Chulmleigh, on the
Exeter and Barnstaple or North Devon Railway; about 18 miles
from Exeter, and about 70 miles from Bristol.
For further particulars, and to treat by Private Contract, apply
to Mr. WILLIAM ROGERS, Solicitor, Bedford; Mr. RICHARD
PRACE, jun., Solicitor, 19, Essex-street, Strand, London ; or to
Messrs. PAGE and CAMERON, Auctioneers and Land Agents, 64,
Old Broad•street, London, and St. Alban's, Hells, where Plans
of the Estate may be seen.
