I. The scenery of Richmond and its neighbourhood, whose
beauties have long been the theme of poet and artist, has always
attracted the aristocratic pleasure seekers of the metropolis.
Convenience of access, both by rail and river, has Increased the
number of visitors to wo great an extent as to render the present
accommodation utterly inadequate.
2. The object of this Company is to erect on Richmond-hill an
Hotel possessing Veer, modern luxury and eonionlence whether
for visitor or equipage.
ff. The Directors have secured an excellent site. In close
proximity to the " Star and Darter," commanding a most lovely
view of the river Thames and the surrounding coun ,at a cost
of £7,600. The property is now known as Ashb dodge.
and contains about three acres, partly copyhold (equal to tree- '
' hold, and partly leuehold, with upwards of 50 years to run at a
moderate ground rent of £2O per annum. The grounds are
at present beautifully laid out, and will be further improved to
make them as perfect as powdble.
4. The Hotel will contain large and small dining rooms, reading
rooms, billiard rooms, bath rooms, smoking room, and upwards
of one hundred bedroom., and will offer every possible conveni-
ence and attraction both to visitors desiring to spend a few
hours out of town, and to those desiring temporary residence.
6. Hotel Companies having become a recognised institution in
England, and, with hardly an exception, paling good dividends,
no excuse need be offered for putting this undertaking before the I
public. Large fortunes have been realised by the proprietors
&LW lessees of hotel' in the immediate vicinity, from which it
may be confidently anticipated that this Hotel will be among the
most prosperous of this very profitable clam of undertakings.
6. As an evidence of the large profits derived from hotel pro-
perty, It may be mentioned that the Queen's Hotel Company.
Norwood an undertaking similar in nearly every respect to the
proposed Richmond Hotel) hove declared a dividend of ten per
cent.
7. The nominal capital of the Company is fixed at £IOO.OOO, but
it is confidently enpecbJ , looking to the small coat of the site,
Ac., that not nearly all of Ml' sum will be required the Direc-
tory therefore propose at first to lame only one half the shares.
Plans of the site, together with a photograph of the view, may
be seen at the temporary offices.
Interest at the rate of 6 per cent. will be paid on all sums
received until the opening of the Hotel.
Prostuses and forme( application may be had dile offices
of the Company, or of the brokers and bankers.
