IN WARWICKSHIRE,

THE PET FREEHOLD ESTATE OF THE COUNTY, WITH THE
MANOR AND ITS EXTENSIVE RIGHTS, THE ENTIRE
HAMLET OF WILLENHALL, A RESIDENCE IN THE
ELIZABETHAN STYLE ; FIVE SUPERIOR FARMS, 750
ACRES, WITH A TENANTRY QUITE UNEXCEPTIONABLE.
THIS FINE PROPERTY APPROACHES THE CITY OF
COVENTRY, IS BOUNDED BY TWO RIVERS, AND THE
TURNPIKE ROAD DIVIDEt THE PROPERTY. IT IS,
BESIDE S, ALL TITHE-FREE, AND EXTRA- PAROCHIAL.
MR. GEORGE ROBINS is favoured by in-
structions from the proprietor, to announce for public
conipetion, at the Auction Mart, London, on TUESDAY NEXT, the
16th of June, at Twelve o'clock, in One Lot,
A FREEHOLD PROPERTY AND DEMESNE,
of which it may well be said it has no fear of rivalry throughout this
admired county—indeed, the advantages are so many, and press in
such rapid succession upon the mind of the composer of this very
impertect outline, that it is not a little difficult to state where to
begin. However, the effort must be made ; firstly,
IT IS DECIDEDLY, FOR ITS SIZE,
THE MOST ELIGIBLE, AND CERTAINLY THE
MOST COMPACT PROPERTY THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY.
There can be no scepticism arise out of this assertion. No one can
with justice gainsay this high panegyric. It extends to
THE WHOLE HAMLET, TOGETHER WITH
THE EXTENSIVE MANOR OF WILLENHALL,
which is within two short miles of

THE ANCIENT CITY OF COVENTRY.
There are FIVE CAPITAL FARMS,

WITH SUPERIOR BUILDINGS
AND WARM FARM-YARDS TO EACH,
AND ALL WITHIN A RING FENCE,
TITHE FREE AND EXTRA-PAROCHIAL,
extending to about •

SEVEN HI7NDRED AND FIFTY ACRES

OF RICH MEADOW, PASTURE, and ARABLE LAND,
entirely and strictly within a ring fence, including the prolific
woods. The rates are unusually small, arising out of the fast that
they are paid by a compromise with the
LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM,RAILWAY COMPANY,
whose line passes through Willeahall. The soil is of first-rate quality,
as the crops annually demonstrate, and the rick yards verify. Every
Farm possesses a superior dwelling, with large garden, and the build-
ings essential for agricultural purposes are unexceptionable, in fact,
everything is in the most perfect apple-pie order. A microscopic eye
could hardly discover a single thing out of place, and with it
A TENANTRY THAT MR. ROBINS PROCL AIMS
CAN NOT BE EXCELLED TI.IROUGHOITT ENGLAND ;
AND HEAR IT ALL YE OF LITTLE FAITH IN
THE STAPLE COMMODITY OF THE COUNTRY,
"THERE IS NOT NOR HAS THERE BEEN
AN ARREAR OF ONE GUINEA DURING
THE LAST TEN YEARS."

A may now he asked, " Where is to be found a corresponding case ?"

AND keno REJOINS " WHERE."

In respect to the auxiliaries not immediately sought in the shape of
income, it should be said

THE ADJOINING MANORS ARE STRICTLY PRESERVED
BY LORDS CRAVEN AND HOOD,
as also the Baginton and Brandon property. There is an abundance
of game, and field sports extend to a gentleman's fondest desire. The
Estate is bounded by two large rivers (the Avon and Sowe), which
furnish constant amlsement to those inclined to recreate in fishing.

THE ELIZABETHAN VILLA
is altogether adapted to a gentleman's occupation. It probably
might be improves by a finishing stroke from the hand of an artiste.
There is, besides, one of the farm-houses where the proprietor
would be but too happy to take up his quarters occasionallycluring the
sporting season. The next point requiring a commentary is the
rental—it must be premised—there are no leases. The present low
rental is 1,550/, a year ; but it is quite manifest that

SEVENTEEN HUNDRED POUNDS A YEAR
will be conceded as a MODERATE rent, and this should be secured
to the PRESENT GOOD MEN AND TRUE, by givng to each a
fourteen ycars' lease. James Mellor, Esq., who has so long domesti-
cated with his family on the hill, and whose quiet abode overlooks
Coventry and its beautiful spires, it would be in bad taste to refuse
a lease for his life, although it will probably, and it is to be hoped, be
a very long one. Longevity prevails on this healthy property, and
some time since this was prov, d by MR. BLUE (close by) retiring into
a better world, at the advanced age of 108. Mr. Mellor's grounds
are beautifully disposed, and more especially the wild flower-garden,
(under the worthy lady's especial care), which gives to it a pleasing
variety. LORD CRAVEN AND LORD HOOD
are close allies ;
AND THE ESTATE OF THE BROTHER OF
SIR ROBERT PEEL, BART.
is close at hand.

The farms are very productive in the sell for white crops, especially
wheat and barley, with some admirable turnip land ; but as dairy
farms, and to fatten bullocks, they have even a higher claim. The
contiguity to one of the first markets in England, and the facility to
return manure, whenever the good folks of Coventry are indulged
with a portion of the produce of this highly cultivated sell, are ad-
vantages that a good agriculturist will not overlook. And now, by
way of conclusion, Mr. Robins will ask, and with earnestness (taking
into the scale the great curiosity that prevails everywhere to get
into good farms now-a•days), if the every day observation, resound-
ing now from all quarters, that

THE AGRICULTURAL COMMUNITY HAVE BEEN MORE
FRIGHTENED THAN HURT,
is not rendeleel most manifest by the above unassuming recital
of facts?

The particulars are ready, and will be distributed, with a draw-
ing, on the plan with the Elizabethan Villa, by Mr. Phillips, jun., of
Coventry. His father (the eminent practitioner of this great city)
will also take the trouble to give all essential explanation, and appoint
alit man to go over the estate.

Auction Mart, and at Mr. George Robins's offices, London.
