The Lands,. part of which are let upon lease, are in a high state
of cultivation. The Works lie on the margin of the Leven, well
known for the purity of its water. From the great outlay made in
rendering the Filters suitable for the purposes of the Field—from
the extent, oonvenience, and suitableness of the buildings—from
the very ample complement of Machinery, Utensils, and Copper,
together with the acknowledged superiority of the workmanship
proluced, there is no establishment at present for sale in the king-
dom equal to it in general capabilities of production. The works
have within a few years past been extensively remodelled, and in
many parts rebuilt, combining in these the most modern improve-
ments in the various,departments of Bleaching and Calico Printing.
