The WONHAM ESTAT4—XifiNSION OF IMPORT-
ANCE IN A FINELY WOODED PARK, AND A DO-
MAIN OF 176 ACRES, WITH EXTENSIVE GARDENS,
PLEASURE GROUNDS, AND PLANTATION WALKS.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS has been honoured
-by instructions from
A NOBLE VISCOUNT, THE PROPRIETOR,
to offer to Public Auction, at the Mart, in London, on Trz U ItSDAT,
May 26th, at 12 o'clock,
THE WONHAM ESTATE,
A FINE FREEHOLD PROPERTY,
situate in the admired district which connects it with
BOX HILL AND REIGATE.
From the latter it is two miles distant, and about four from Dorking.
The property under consideration has been known for many a long
year at one of
THE PET PLACES OF SURREY.
It is altogether of a commanding character. The Mansion partakes
very much of the
GOTHIC ORDER OF ARCHITECTURE ;
and without pretending to more than its deserts, it may be pro-
claimed to rank as one of the best family abodes throughout the
County. It is
EMBOSSOMED IN A FINELY TIMBERED PARK,
THE RIVER MOLE PASSING THROUGH IT,
abundantly supplied with fish. The pleasure-grounds and plan-
tation walks are very extensive, and so fruitful in American
plants and evergreens, that winter appears estranged from this do-
micile. The Kitchen -gardens are most abundant ; the Hot-
houses and Green-house well placed ; and an Ice-house hard
by. The residence, it may be well to observe, was erected
in the olden times, when substantiality and comfort were
both voted essentials. It is in excellent order, although it is not
pretended to deny that a purchaser may have the benefit of distin-
guishing himself, and manifesting his taste, by x little ornamental-
.
renovation in the interior. There is

A SPLENDID CONSERVATORY
which adorns the South Front,
MEASURING EIGHTY-TWO FEET,
and adding, not a little, to the consequence of the place. The

DESIRABLE THROUGHOUT THE. COMITY,,,WITHIN
NINE MILES OF DERBY, THREE OF BURTMCVPON-
TRENT, A*o itltinTEE FROM LITCHFIELD.
R. GEORGE ROOtNg has the honour to
announce that he has been directed by ihe Mghly-respect-
able proprietor to SELL BY AUCTION, at the Mart, /It Pmflon
on THURSDAY, the 21st of July, at Twelve o'Clock, in and
A HIGHLY IMPORTANT AND SINGULARLY ELIGIBLE
FREEHOLD ESTATE, THE PROPERTY OF
ABRAHAM HOSKINS, ESQ.
Throughout the admired County of Derbyshire this fine estate has
acquired a renown to which none other can pretend. Indeed, it is
so fruitful in the multiplicity of its various attributes, that it is not
i little difficult to condense them within the confined limit of an
every-day announcement. It approaches
LORD CHESTERFIELD'S
AND SIR FRANCIS BURDETT'S.
Its character is, fortunately, so well appreciated in the County, that
the observations which follow are necessarily directed only to those
at a distance.

THE NEWTON PARK ESTATE
comprehends first,
THE ELEGANT ABODE OF
THE HIGHLY-ESTEEMED PROPRIETOR.
Its outward form has always claimed to be a chaste specimen of English
architecture, and within it is admirably arranged for the enjoyment
of every thing that is conducive to comfort. The Offices are abun-
dant both within and without. The Gardens are extensive, and
have been arranged with great judgment.
THE SPLENDID HOT AND SUCCESSION HOUSES
EXTEND TO 150 FEET,
and stand alone for their beauty and utility. Close by are
THE ORNAMENTAL WATERS,
-THE RIPPLING- CASCADES, ROCK-WORK, AND
RURAL BRIDGE.
In respect of the Offices connected with

THE FERME ORNEE,
it would be in vain to attempt a faithful narrative; it need only to
be remarked that the hand of a Master has presided over the whole,
"-e expense of which has exceeded
FIVE THOUSAND POUNDS;

and that

PRICE 713.
