Nifty, placed in the centre of the domain, and commanding from its
front a quiet, picturesque, and lovely scene. It is a quaint and sin-
gular building in stone, of a very early period, containing eumerous
lofty and well-proportioned chambers, many of them enriched with
fine old carved oak, offering every accommodation for a large family,
which. if assisted by a tasteful and judicious outlay for embellishment
and furniture, in accordance with its character, a residence not only
of the first importance but of extraordinary attraction would be
obtained.
