TO BE SOLD BY AUCTION,
By Mr. GEORGE ROBINS,
At the Auction Mart, London, on THURSDAY. September 17, at
Twelve, in One or Four Lots, as shall be decided at the sale;
by direction of the Noble Marquis,
AValuable FREEHOLD and COPYHOLD
ESTATE, desirably situate within two miles of
THE CITY OF NEWCASTLE, AND

ON THE BANK OF THE TYNE.
It consists of a very compact little property,
• .. THE WHICKHAM ESTATE,

forming part of the rural village bearing that name; it is altogether
EIGHTY ACRES OF CAPITAL LAND,
and has been for •the last century advantageously employed as a
farm, but the march of improvement progressing to these parts,
has wisely suggested that rich land on the bank of

THE FAMED TYNE RIVER
will be in great-request with the opulent merchants of this pros-
perous town, to erect villas, wherein they may recreate after their
successful daily labours are over. The situation.
IS POSITIVELY BEAUTIFUL, and
SIR THOMAS CLAVERING'S WOODS

alone present a feature not to be resisted. As a building specula-
tion it holds out temptations of the strongest kind, and by means of
the Railway the distance from their official abode is well accom-
plished in about five minutes. The property must, therefore, in a
few short years, become of great importance, as it is no longer
doubtful that Newcastle town will then have reached Whickham.

Particulars may be had 21 days prior to the sale, at the Queen's
Head, Newcastle-upon-Tyne ; the , Durham ; of Messrs.
Blunt, Roy, Blunt, and Duncan, Solicitors, Liverpool-street.; at
