HEIGHTS OF ABRAHAM,
MATLOCK BATH, DERBYSHIRE.
_ _

On MoNriir, the 30th day of July next, at Twelve o'clock at
Noon, at the House of Mrs. Cummings, tbe•Old Bath Hotel,
Matlock Bath, (unless previously disposed of by Private
Contract, of which 'due notice will be given,) in one or more
Lots, to suit the convenience of purchasers,
IHE beautiful and lucrative Estate, well-known as the
HEIGHTS OF' ABRAHAM, situated at Matlock Bath,
the ilidSt romantic and picturesque part of 'Derbyshire, con-
'lidding about 33 Acres, covered with the fittest Larch and other
Timber, of from 30 to 60 years'
.giowth. Upon the Heights are
Two delightful Residences, having a southern asPect, and com-
pletely sheltered from the north • and east. The principal
Residence is called the LOWEE TOWER, built in the Castellated
Style, which harmonizes so well with the surrounding Scenery,
and was for some time the favourite retreat of 'tlie celebrated
Author of "'England and the English," part of 'Which work
-was written within its walls. Detached are excellent Stables,
Coach-house, Garden, and Orchard. The other, called "the
UPPER TOWER, built in the same style, his every convenience
suitable for a small family. 'There are also Two COTTAGES
upon the Heights, which at all times meet 'with respectable
Tenants.

To attempt any description of this far-famel spot %%mild be to
trench upon the province of the Tonrist; the Grounds are laid
out in the most diversified manner, with broad Gravel Walks,
and commanding, from every point, the most delightful:Views
of the lovely Vale of 'Matlock. The IttiTLAND CAVERN, one
of the largest in the Kingdom, is situate in the roidsCof these
Grounds, and ToUrists visiting Derbyihire rarely omit seeing
this WONDER OF TOE PEAR.

•One of greatest attractiont,of the Invalid to Matlock is
its HOT BATHS, and within this Estate is a Spring, the tempe-
rature of which at its source has been proved to be equal to the
'Buxton Water. This 'SPring, by a-Judiclotis and moderate
expenditure of 'capital, would prove of great adVantage to Mat-
lock, as well as of profit to the Prriprietor. A
respectable and•reSponSible'person will •take the Upper Tower
and Cavern upon Lease for a term of seven or feurteen years,
if desited.
NOrfh Midland Railway runs within seven miles of
MatioCk B4th, and the Wail and three Coaches travel daily to
and froth L'Ondon, Martehester, NOttinghath, and Sheffield.
The Estate'may he'vieWed on application being made it 'the
Uppe'r Totver.
Particulars may be had one Month 'previotis to the Sale, at
