ROSS-SHIRE.

DESIRABLE ESTATE, WITH A FREEHOLD
QUALIFICATION.

The Estate of TEANINICH will be exposed to Sale in the
month of SEPTEMBER next, on a day to be afterwards
named, within the Royal Exchange Coffee-house, Edin-
burgh, if not previously disposed of by private bargain.
THE Estate is mostly situated on the shore
of the Cromarty Frith, in the most improved and
beautiful district of the County, surrounded by the richest
and most diversified scenery, and combining advantages
for residence and improvement not surpassed in the High-
lands of Scotland. It is intersected by the Mail-road, at
nearly equal distances from Dingwall and Tain, and
hounded on the east for a considerable way by the River
Alness, and on the west by the Lands of Novar. It has a
southern exposure, and consists of rich Arable Land, pro-
ducing early and abundant returns of Wheat, Barley, and
other crops, and the Salmon Fishings as productive.
About four miles north of the Low Country Estate,
is situated Hill Grazing Kenlochanastrone, which to
both the Agriculturist and the Sportsman, forms a very
desirable appendage. The Lakes and Rivers on it abound
with Char and Trout, and the hills with Grouse.

The greatest part of the property is in the natural pos-
session of the Proprietor, in the highest state of cultiva-
tion, and enclosed with substantial stone dykes and hedges,
interspersed with clumps and beltings of plantations. The
Mansion House is spacious, recently built, comprising four
public rooms, 26 feet by Is, and 20 feet by 18 ; twelve
Bed-rooms, some having dressing-closets attached ; Shower,
Hot, and Steam Baths, with abundant supply of water and
other conveniences, with servants' accommodation and cellar-
age, and contiguous are Wash, Laundry, Dairy, and Brew-
houses, supplied with water; also an Ice-house. A delightful
Shrubbery connects with the Garden and Hothouse, which
are surrounded by a high wall, and for an abundant supply
of choice and early fruits are not surpassed by any in the
county. The Farm-offices consist of Coach-house, Sta-
bling, Thrashing, and Meal-miins by water, and every ne-
cessary convenience, besides a large Store-house at the sea-
shore. There is also connected with the Mains Farm a
Distillery on an extensive scale, with Miting-barns and
Kilns, capable of malting 1,500 bushels a-week, and could
be extended at a small expense ; the water is abundantly
supplied, and rises to the height of the coolers ; an excel-
lent Malt-miln, with machinery for pumping, and au ex-
tensive Peat-moss belonging to the property. The Dis-
tillery being detached, could be separately let. The thriv-
ing and rapidly extending village of pridge-end is partly
built on the Estate, and having an inexhaustible Quarry
of excellent Freestone adjoining, cannot fail of adding pro-
gressively to the value of the property.
The Estate is now under survey, and is supposed to -'on-
tabs about 3,000 imperial Acres, of which 567 are Am de,
and 177 Planted Wood, 130 of the Plantations are up•
wards of 25 years old, and all very thriving. The present
gross rental of the whole is estimated above 1,091/. ster-
ling, besides what will continue to be obtained from the
thinning of the woods, and without any rent put down for
the Mansion-house and Distillery, for both of which, with
the garden, lawn, and suitable offices, there is no doubt
that 3501. can be got. The Grouse Shooting could also
be let at 201. or 301., but is not charged.
Plans of the Estate to be seen with (when the Survey is
concluded) and farther particulars known, by applying to
the Proprietor, Captain Munro, Teaninich, by Evanton ;
or to Robert Logan, Esq. Inverness.
