ESTATES FOR SALE IN THE COUNTY OF

EAST LOTHIAN.
TO BE SOLD BY PUBLIC ROUP,

Within the Royal Exchange Coffee-house, Edinburgh, on
FRIDAY, the 27th day of JUNE, 1828, at Two o'clock
afternoon, (if not previously disposed of by Private
Bargain,)
THE ESTATES of LEASTON and
PLEWLANDHILL, lying contiguous in the Pa-
rish of Humbie, and County of East Lothian.
These Estates contain UNE THOUSAND AND
EIGHTY-TWO ACRES, Scots measure, or thereabouts,
of which about ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY
ACRES are covered with very valuable Planting.
The Lands are in general of a very good finality, partly
of a dry free soil, well adapted to green crops of evet y kind,
and partly of a rich loam and clay, yielding good crops of
all kinds of grain. They are extremely well situated as to
roads and markets, being abont sixteen. miles from Edin-
burgh, eight front Dalkeith, and six from Haddington, the
county town ; at the two latter places there are the best
markets for grain in Scotland. The lands are only distant
about two miles from coal and lime, and the roads in all
directions are excellent.
They are all under Leases current for about ten years,
and the Rental at present is about 1220/.
The Lands hold of the Crown, and afford two Freehold
Qualifications in the county.
The Mansion-house of Leaston is at present in bad
order, but it could be made a comfortable residence at no
very great expence. There are many beautiful situations
for houses on the grounds, and being in the neighbourhood
of lime and plenty of freestone, and not far from timber-
markets. buildings of every kind may be erected at an easy
expense.
These Estates are surrounded and intersected with Trout-
ing rivulots, and there are plenty of Game on them. The
public burdens are very moderate.
For all further particulars application may be nsade to
Messrs. Williams, Brooks, Powell, and Broderip, Lincoln's-
Inn, London ; or to Alexander Pearson, W.S., 17, Royal
Circus, Edinburgh, with the latter of whom are the Title
Deeds.
