moderate scale ; with the Manor, Fishery, and Perpetual Advow-

MESSRS. DANIEL SMITH and SON will
SUBMIT to AUCTION, at the Mart, on TUBSDIY, August 20,
at Twelve (unless an acceptable offer shall be previously made by
private treaty),
The above remarkably choice and most valuable FREEHOLD
ESTATE, comprising, In a perfect ring fence, about 1,150 acres of
exceedingly rich grazing land (capable of fatting the largest bullocks),
with a range of luxuriant meadows intersected by the river, and a
fine breadth of sound fertile arable land, the greater part in the
hands of first-class tenants, and, with little exception, in the finest
state of cultivation. The mansion (of which possession may be had)
stands upon a gentle rise, close to the beautiful little church of
Brooksby, surrounded by some exceedingly rich park-like paddocks,
studded with very handsome timber, and beautiful springs of water.
The manor of Brooksby, with an extensive fishery, also the perpe-
tual advowson of the rectory, with the right of next presentation,
are attached to the estate, rendering it altogether a most complete
and desirable property. From its extraordinary sound, deep rich
soil, and from its being subject to comparatively trifling poor-rates
(the population of Brooksby not exceeding ten or twelve persons),
and exonerated of land-tax and tithes, it is an unusually eligible and
craDice estate as an investment; and, being in the midst of several
favourite hunts, and within a short ride of Leicester, with a railway
station adjoining the estate, bringing it within four hours' journey of
London, and connecting it with most parts of England, it is also a
most attractive and desirable residential property.
The estate may be viewed by application to Mr. Simpkin, the
principal tenant, and descriptive particulars with plans may be cb-
tabled of Messrs. Delmar and Wynne, solicitors, 46, Lincoln's Inn-
fields ; or of Messrs. Daniel Smith and Son, Land Agents, in Wa-
terloo-plac3, Pall. mall.
