SALES BY AUCTION.

MAGNIFICENT ESTATES andnoble RESIDENCE, in SOUTII
LANCASHIRE, within 14 miles of Liverpool; comprising the
extensive and very valuable domains and manors of BOLD. BUR-
TON WOOD, and SUTTON, presumed ro 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 -11-
=nee that the above truly magnificent and very valuable FREE-
HOLD ESTATES. together nearly 7,000 statute acres, embracing
some of the finest land in the county, and almost in a ring fence, will
be submitted to public SALE in ,:une or Jnly, (if not previously dis-
posed of by private contract).
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 timoered, and well
stocked with game; also the Iturtonwookl Estate adjoining, whi, h
contains nearly 1,400 acres, very finely wooded, together with the
Sutton Estate, closely contiguous, consiSting of about 1,030 acres 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
flue estates (with the exception of the parks and demesne
farm, which are in hand) are let to responsible tenants at
moderate rents, and produce between 11,000, and 12,090/. 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 ancestors 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 must be annually increased. 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 front 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 probably be offered in lots.
For further particulars and cards to view the property and to treat
for the purchase apply at their offices, in Waterloo-place, Pall-mall,
London particulars may also be had of Messrs. Howson and Cross,
solicitors, Preset, Lancashire ; or Mr. Alexander Bannerman, land
agent, South Cottage, Chorley.
