THE GREENLAND FACTORY;

and the tact and judgment displayed in selecting this spot for its erec-
tion is fully demonstrated by the fact that it stands first on the
bank of

THE RIVER AVON.

It is in the vicinity of the COAL MINES of SOMERSET-
SHIRE, from which a CANAL is in communication, and is only
distant two miles from Trowbridge, eight from Bath, and twenty
from Bristol ; and though last not least in a PURCHASER'S
DEAR LOVE, a branch of
THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.

will pass through the town. The usual limits prescribed to an
advertisement forbid the possibility of particularising all its advan-
tages ; those who feel interested in the purchase are refered to the
particulars, but it may be well that a few only should be pointed
out. The mill carries six stories, and its extent is suffi-
cient for the reception OF ALL IMPROVED MACHINERY;
the power is a newly erected TWENTY HORSE STEAM
ENGINE, with TWO 'POWERFUL WATER WHEELS, four
excellent cottages for the workmen, stable, outhouses, and a meadow
of two acres adjoining, in which is the celebrated

QUARRY OF FIRE STONE,
of which the factory is erected, and would afford the means of
building a substantial residence, for which there is a most elegible
spot on the premises. The original expense .for eructing these
most important and highly eleg►ible premises exceeded
TEN THOUSAND POUNDS.
THE LAND TAX IS REDEEMED.

The last Lessee possessed the Mills at the very inadequate rent of
£4OO -PER ANNUM.

But the march of improvement has added considerably to the value.
Possession may be had at Michaelmas.
In conclusion it may be well to refer to the present very flourish-
ing state of commerce, and the manufactories generally throughout
the country—the increased and increasing demand for -woolLta
cloth, and more particularly of the high estimation in which the
West of England cloths are generally held, render the property at
the present moment of peculiar value to the capitalist and manu-
facturer, not only from its own intrinsic worth, but from the diffi-
culty of investing safely : it presents indeed a most refreshing con-
trast to the visionary schemes of the present day ; and those who
possess capital, and wish to increase their income, without encoun-
tering the chance of loss, arc invited to give this opportunity their
serious and immediate attention.

The property can be viewed on applying to John Edmonds, Esq.,
Bradford, and particulars obtained twenty-eight days prior to the
sale ; also of Samuel, Salter, Esq., Trowbridge ; the Swan Inn
Bradford ; the Hen and Chickens, Birmingham ; the Waterloo:
Liverpool ; the Printer of the Manchester Times, Manchester;
the Bush, Bristol ; the White Hart, Bath ; the Auction Mart, and
Mr. George Robins's offices, London.

THE BUCKLAND FILLEIGH ESTATE, IN NORTH
DEVON.

ml_it.. GEORGE ROBINS has the honour to
announce that he has received instructions from the Mort.
gagee, who has full power of sale, to OFFER to PUBLIC COM-
PETITION, at the Auction Mart, London, on THURSDAY NEXT,
June 9, at Twelve o'clock, in one Lot,"
THE SPLENDID SEAT CALLED
BUCKLA ND FILLEIGH,

ono of the most distinguished features in
NORTH DEVON'S FAVOURED COUNTY.

All those who are at all familiar with the renown so justly conceded
to this property, will see that "it needeth not the aid of fancy's
sketch." The great difficulty which the humble individual is im-
pressed with who has the conduct of this sale, arises out of his po-
verty of words, or such as should be sought to aid him in giving a
faint portraiture of a seat which nothing in the country pretends to
rival, and of which history has already given most favourable men-
tion.

THIS MAGNIFICENT STONE STRUCTURE

was erected at, an expense of
FORTY THOUSAND POUNDS,
_ _

is placed on elevated ground in the centre of the Manor, with
A FINELY TIMBERED PARK

surrounding it. The architectural form is chaste. It bath two
commanding fronts; on one side is a portico, of
THE GRECIAN DORIC ORDER;
the principal entrance to the north has
A DORIC COLONNADE

of granite, with a carriage-drive under. Within this
SPLENDID SEAT OF HOSPITALITY
will be found not merely the usual agremens of a first rate establish-
ment, but an admixture of splendour and comfort to such a degree,
that it is difficult to define which predominates. Ata k of no
ordinary difficulty presents itself in doing justice within, but
a tolerable notion may be found in one single expression—
the most fastidious judge would be puzzled to find a single
fault—the comprehensive word COMFORT reigns triumphantly
throughout, and it bath this remarkable advantage that, with such
an imposing appearance altogether, there has been so much of real
tact displayed, that a moderate sized family will not be doomed to
the hard fate of being over-housed.. The offices are not seen by
means of the plantations ; they are fully commensurate to all the
legitimate wants of a first-rate family ; and it should be remarked,
that when.the Reform Bill gave to this county two additional Mern-
hers, the general impression was that Buckland Mansion would
shortly be the chosen spot for one of them. The next Election will
probably set this matter satisfactorily to rest. Tho domain and
farms approach _ . _

TWO THOUSAND ACRES OF LAND.
The Park, hath peculiar claims to commendation ; it is so
fruitful in every thing that is desirable, there is so much of
hill and dale, such a delightful inequality every where. The orna-
mental waters and islands, the plantations of luxuriant growth scat-
tered about in pleasing negligence; the undulating lawns, and the
almost

INTERMINABLE WOODS,
vary the scene continually, and form alicture so delightful, the en-
semble is so unapproachable, that Fairy Land will not fail to be
brought immediately into recollection. 'the gardens are admirably
placed, and of great extent, with
HOT-HOUSES, GREEN-HOUSES,
pinery, and melon-ground. The farms, with thriving orchards to
every one, are all contiguous, and form a sort of circle to the park,
wherein are _

RIDES AND DRIVES Or MORE THAN THREE MILES
IN EXTENT.

The whole forms a combination which can alone be appreciated by
ocular demonstration.
THE MANORS, ROYALTIES, AND PRIVILEGES,
will not fail to be duly estimated, and the sporting lord of this
manor, will find that in hunting, shooting, and fishing, he may
gratify himself and friends to his heart's content.
