KENT.—An unrivalled FREEHOLD INVESTMENT.
The entire ISLAND of ELMLEY, containing nearly 3,000
ACRES, about a mile and D. half from the London-road, and
only two miles from Sittingbourne.
MR. w W. SIMPSON has received directions
from the Proprietor, to SELL BY AUCTION, at the
Mart, London, in the month of June next,
The ENTIRE ISLAND of ELMLEY, comprising 2,300
Acres of old fresh marsh, and 290 Acres of marsh, enclosed 15
years since, all of superior quality, and peculiarly adapted to the
grazing of bullocks and sheep, together with 350 Acres of salt
marsh. These valuable marshes have the pre-eminent advan.
tage of an ample supply of fresh water in all seasons, there being
10 pure springs on the island; such, also, is the soundness of
these land, that when the rot in sheep prevailed to a frightful
extent throughout the kingdom, Elmley Island never engen-
dered this destructive disease. , There is not a public road, nor
is there a publie path, on the island, excepting to the church.
The estate is bounded by the East Swale, and the river walls
are most substantial and in excellent condition ; they are gene-
rally protected by a deep foreground of salt marsh. During
the last 11 years, a period 7ihich includes some of the highest
tides known within the memory of man, the repair of these
walls has averaged only 1301. per annum, which is the best test
of cheap security. The buildings on the island consist of cot-
tages for herdsmen, cattle sheds, stabling, &c. ; these, with th
gates and fences, are kept in repair at the joint expense of
landlord and tenant ; the average outlay to the landlord does,
not exceed 301. per annum. The parochial rates are of insig-
nificant amount. There is but one pauper who at the pre-
sent time receives relief in the parish of Elmley. The estate
supplies first-rate coursing ; hares are reared and preserved at
scarcely any cost, and as the island consists exclusively of green
land they may be multiplied without injury to the occupiers.
This extensive surface of marsh land might, if it were in the
possession of a proprietor of tillaged estates, be most advanta-
geously parcelled out in certain proportions with the farms,
which are deficient in green land, and the rental of this island,
as well as those of the upland estates, would thus be greatly
augmented. The tenants, of whom there are six only, are
wealthy, and of the highest respectability. That the rental is
very moderate is attested by the recent valuation of a compe-
tent local surveyor, whose estimates are confirmed by the opi-
nion of Mr. Simpson. Mr. Simpson is open to private offers
antecedent to the day of sale.
Particulars and plans are in preparation, and may shortly be
had of Messrs. Bridges and Mason, Solicitors, Red Lion-
square; of Richard Bathurst, Esq., Solicitor, and Agent to
the Estate, Faversham ; and of Mr. W. W. Simpson, IS,
Bucklersbury, London.
