THE MANOR AND MANORIAL. RIGHTS
give consequence to the possessor ; to say nothing of the value of
the sporting. By the way, we must not overlook a feature which,
in days of yore, was accounted
OLD of impMINE ortance, nothing less than a
G.
Extract from a description of England and Wales in 1769 :—" It
ought not to be omitted, that at Taynten, near Newent, on the
northern borders of this forest, a Gold Mine was discovered about
the year 1700, of which a lease was granted to some refiners. who ex-
tracted some gold from the ore, but had not spirit to follow it up."
Again, in England's Gazotteer, printed in lioo. is the following :
Taynton, Gloucestershire, four miles S.E. from Newent, six from
Mitchel-Dean, and seven W. from Gloucester. In 1700, there was an
ORE found here, from which the refiners extracted gold," but they
also locked enterprise.
Mining and refining is now a much more simple ttndlessexpensive
operation than
tltilvatAisa century ago. A spirited individual will, in
a" A MINE OF WEALTH."
Cheltenham, the most fashionable watering place in England, is
only a short ride, and is a capital market, as well as Gloucester,
for all the produce. Its exemption from tithe, to a great extent, is
an important feature.
The Estates may be viewed, with the leave of the tenants, and
particulars had at the King's Heal, Gloucester; the Royal Hotel,
Cheltenham; of Messrs. Law and Tindall, Solicitors, New.square,
Lincoln's Inn; Mr. Bailey, Solicitor, Gloucester; the Auction Mart;
