A MALT DISTILLERY OF FIRST-RATE CHARAC-
TER AND IMPORTANCE,

BANK OF THE RIVER SEVERN, IN
THE CITY OF WORCESTER,
together with the Valuable Plant, the Site of the Buildings,
Malt Houses, Cattle Stalls, Granaries, &c., all under one
roof, except the Spirit Store Rooms, which are detached,
together also with the Plant of " THE RECTIFYING
DISTILLERY," Utensils, and VALUABLE BRITISH
WINE TRADE connected therewith. It may be well first
to premise, that the reason for this sale will be very encourag-
ing to a successor.
THE DISTILLERY ORIGINATED IN 1729

by an ancestor of the present Proprietor, and during a
fERIOD OF ONE HUNDRED AND TEN YEARS
it has continued in the family, each having carried it on suc-
cessfully. It may be, asked—where is a corresponding case
to he found, or one so encouraging to those who would con-
nect themselves

- WITH THIS WHEEL OF FORTUNE ?
As it is most probable all the competitors for this first-rate
concern will desire to have ocular demonstration of the facts
that have been slightly glanced at, the present statement will
be cop fined only to a very few of its prominent features.
The Property is nearly all Freehold, and has been com-
pleted at-intervals by means of an immense outlay, and may
now he very safely designated one of
THE MOST COMPLETEMALT DISTILLERIES
IN ENGLAND.
It is wisely placed a few yards only from the River Severn,
and the Rectifying House and Buildings. suitable for the
Wine Trade, are immediately on the opposite side of the river.
The Distillery and Rectifying House are close to
THE BRIDGE IN WORCESTER,

It is not perhaps generally known that one of the leading
causes of such a succession of good fortune arises out of a
fact which it may be well to notice ; fortunately it has not had
to contend with competition and rivalry
THROUGHOUT ENGLAND,

THERE ARE ONLY 12 MALT DISTILLERIES,
and nothing nearer to Worcester than Bristol and Liverpool.
A purchaser will necessarily require considerable capital to
embark in this field of fortune ; great accommodation will,
however, be afforded to those who can offer solid security.
To conclude : Mr. Robins dares not trust himself to pro-
claim

THE SECRETS OF THE PRISON HOUSE •
in a public announcement; the profits have been satisfactory;
the precise amount will be left as a " bonne bouche" to those
individuals who make a journey. to Worcester, who, if aided
by strong concurring testimony, of great respectability, will
be allowed a full opportunity to investigate, and see, upon
record a happy illustration of the character so imperfectly
awarded to it.by this short announcement. " "
The Water Carriage from the SeVern River and Canal to
distant parts of Englandy and the Railroad, which is nearly
accomplished to London and to Bristol, are auxiliaries that
will not escape public attention.
The Plants, both of the Distillery and the Rectifying
House, are to be taken at a valuation, with early possession.
Principals only will be dealt with ; the printed particulars
will be ready on the 10th inst. with a plan of the distillery ;
to be then had at the Waterloo Hotel, Liverpool; of Mr.
FtsnEn, Auctioneer, Manchester: at the Bush Hotel, Bris-
tol.; New London Hotel, Exeter ; of Mr. LASLETT and Mr.
