I. IHE LANDS and ESTATE of KIL-
E, MARTIN, lying in the Parish of Kilmartin, and
County of Argyll. This Estate has for some time past
been mostly let on yearly leases, with a view to a sale, and
:A in consequence at present under-rented ; but, in 1825,
it was valued by an experienced valuator at 1,340/. of land
rent, without taking the produce of the woods into calcu-
lation. It contains 1,978 Scotch, or 2,4'73 English Acres.
Ii combines every convenience requisite for the residence
of a family. The soil of the Arable Land is early and
productive, and that both of the low pasture and hill
grazings is of excellent quality, dry, sound, and healthy.
The natural shelter is remarkable. There is very
little waste ground, anti no more moss than what is
necevsary for fuel. There is a considerable portion of wood
on the estate, both natural and planted. Near the Mansion-
bense there are many trees of large groc tai ; and as the soil is
peculiarly adapted for wood, there are many situations
where plantations may be made, not only with the view of
producing shelter and ornamental effect, but with the cer-
tain prospect of future profit. Besides the wood actually
inclosed, and in an advanced state of growth, there are
mane- acres of oak stools which, it inclosed and preserved
from cattle, would in the usual time become valuable hark
The7e, from being uninclosed, and from their irre-
taller petition, have only been estimated as pasture. The
distance from Lorligilphead (a thriving market town, where
e7erything, can be readily got by means of the daily steam-
boats) is only eight miles, and the road is exceedingly good.
From the sea tit Loch Crinan, the house of Largv, being
the mansion-house of the estate, is only three miles distant.
The Mansion-house is large, elegant, and commodious, and
was built only a few years ago. Most of the low ground
rsn the different farms is subdivided and inclosed by stone
t4;tes ; and there is plenty of good limestone in various
parts of the estate. To a sportsman Kilmartin would be
a eery rles:rable purchase, for, besides the easy access to it,
.the productive quality of its soil, and ether advantages as a
residence, it abounds with a variety of the finest lame.
2. The ESTATE of CRUACIIAN, with extensive
UNION FISIIINGS in LOCHOW. This Estate,
1,-sing in tie parish of Dalavich, consists of 2,396 Scotch
English acres. It is beautifully situated on the
north side of Loithow, immediately opposite to the finely
woodald and picturesque ground.' of Eredine. It is also
bounded on the north by another beautiful take, the Loch
Kilmartin about ten miles, by
Avieit. It is distant fr 04,13
vh,3,ant road along the banks of
aj. toler.lbly good and _ very
chow.
The soil of the
.low ground is excellent, part of it well
ad,,pued fur. cropping, and the m w eado and low pasture
is not fie /enter to that of Kilmartin. The natural shelter is
equally go 4, the "net or hill pasture affords sound and
ite„hey gee* for both black cattle and sheep, of the best
breech. Besides the "Pm Wood, (which is mostly all oak,
in the most thriviPg state, and may be fit for cutting iu
three years,) there ;;.re several Clumps of fir, larch, and
other trees, row fit for useful purposes, The principal
farm-house, (Cruaehan, at one time the residence of the
proprietor,) is in good re?air, is well situated, and might,
„ith eu addition in front, be made a suitable dwelling for
In-oprictor, or for a principal tacksmanot the whole lands.
The low around.; are ail subdivided by stone dykes into
a-niiaiil,i quarters for grating and wintering ; and the
bill ground are also inclosed in the same
boundaries of the
manner.
The property abounds with various kin,_ of game, and
its right of fishing in Lochow for the length of three mum
There is limestone in the, lands, and plenty of goodanoss and
brushweed for fuel. The distance from Inverary is only
WO" matA, and the ferry across the loch is a narrow and
yafat one at all times. With a view to the sale, the lands
are not let on permanent leases, but were valeed in 1825
t 4741. 17s.
If the Estates are not sold in one lot, they
will, at a sub-

se(llen t period, be exposed separately.
