MAGNIFICENT ESTATES and noble RESIDENCE, in SOUTH
LANCASHIRE, within 14 miles of Liverpool; comprising the
extensive and very valuable domains and manors of BOLD, BUlt
WON WOOD, and SUTTON, presumed to be one of the most im-
portant and improving properties that has ever been offered for
sale.
MESSRS. DANIEL SMITH and SON have
been honoured with instructions from the Proprietor to OF-
FEIt for SALE, in AUGUST next (If not previrusly disposed of),
the above truly magnificent and very valuable FREEHOLD ES-
TATES, together nearly 7,000 statute acres, embracing some of
the finest land in the county, and almost in a ring fence.
They embrace he important Manor of Bold, with its splendid man-
sion, gardens, park, noble woods, lake, and plantations, all in excel-
lent order, and distinguished as the Bold Hall Estate, and comprising
within itself about 4,300 acres most superbly timbered, and well
stocked with game; also the Burtonwood Estate adjoining,
containing numerous small farms ; together with the Sutton
Estate, closely contiguous, consisting of about I,o3olllacres of
excellent land skirting the prosperous and rapidly improving town of
St. Helens, and containing mines of superior coal and also beds of
clay of great value for pottery purposes. The whole of these
fine estates (with the exception of the parks and demesne
farm, which are in band) are let to responsible tenants at
moderate rents, and produce between 11,0001, and 12,0001. per
annum, exclusive of royalties and rents receivable from coal mines,
which must annually increase The limits of an advertisement will
only admit of a brief outline of the numerous natural and great local
advantages of this most important and splendid domain. The Man-
sion of Bold stands upon a fine elevated part of the park, which
contains about 600 acres, richly studded with noble timber, and
sheltered by venerable oak woods of the finest growth. Within the
park are the remains of the ancient hall, moated round, and which,
from a period little later than the conquest, has been the seat of the
maternal ance tors of the present owner. The Sutton Estates
possesses rare advantages, is intersected by the London and North
Western and St. Helen's and Runcorn Gap Railways, and, from its
position and nature, its value annually increasing. The St.
Helen's Coal-field, containing an average thickness of 70 feet of coal,
is believed to extend under a considerable portion of the Sutton
Estate , part of such mines are already in lease, and must be the
source of a vast revenue. The Sutton station of the London and
North Western Railway is distant about a mile from Bold Hall,
affording easy access to all parts of the kingdom. Warrington is
distant from Bold five miles and a half, Liverpool only 14, Manches-
ter 20, and London less than 200. The Bold and Burtonwood Do-
mains and Manors may be purchased without the Sutton Property,
which will be offered in various lots.
For further particulars arid cards to view the property and to treat
for the purchase apply at their offices, in Waterloo-place, Pall-mall,
London : particular,s may also be had of Messrs. Howson and Cross,
solicitors, Prescat, Lancashire ; or Mr. Alexander Bannerman, land

ments, and invaluable Accommodation Lands to the town, alto-

gether upwards of 1,000 acres, with the old Castle Ruins, sur-
rounded by highly picturesque scenery.
MESSRS. DANIEL SMITH and SON have
received instructions to prepare for SALE by AUCTION,
at the end of July, in Lots (unless acceptable offers should be pre-
viously made by Private Treaty),
The above very important and influential FREEHOLD ESTATES,
embracing the fine breadth of rich grazing and dairy land (with a
very small proportion under the plough and hops), spreading in
wide expanse between the towns of Rye and Winchelsea, chiefly
occupied by Jeremiah Smith, Esq., partly bounded by the navigable
River Brede, the Government Military-road, and the harbour of
Rye, on which it has a wharf and limekiln. The Castle Estate will
form one lot of about 650 acres with or without the Pet Level
Marshes, about 110 acres ; the Gate Borough Marshes, several lots
for the accommodation of the town ; also the School-house Farm,
and the residence of Mountfleld, with its rich and finely-timbered
grounds at the entrance of the town, separate lots. These fine
marsh estates have the great advantage of unfailing springs of fresh
water, and are subjected to very trifling level scots, and the larger
'proportion being in the parish of Icklesham, are subject to mode-
rate poor-rates. To trustees they present particularly choice in-
vestments, as there is little or no timber to pay for, and few build-
ings required.

plans, may be had when the day of sale is fixed, at the inns at Rye,
Hastings, &c. ; of Messrs. Wright and Kingsford, solicitors, Essex-
street, Strand; at the Mart; and of Messrs. Daniel Smith and Son,
