including
THE CLEEVE COURT MANSION,
AND ELEVEN DAIRY AND GRAZING FARMS,
EXTENDING TO CLEEVE,
ONE THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED and FORTY-
FIVE ACRES OF THE RICH LAND OF THE
NORTH MARSH,
producing from a highly-respectable tenantry, whose
means are not a little improved by the profit arising from
the far-famed Chedder Cheese, and most luxuriant Cyder
Orchards,
A CLEAR RENTAL OF TH REE THOUSAND TWO
HUNDRED POUNDS A YEAR,
presenting to large and small capitalists, at this particular
moment, a tempting opportunity of forming a comparison
between the advantage
OF HOLDING THREE PER CENT. CONSOLS AT
PAR. OR SOME OF THE RICHEST AND MOST
INVITING FARMS IN THE COUNTY OF SO-
MERSET.
The Estates are in the parishes of Yatton, Congresbury,
Nailsea, Kingston, Seamour. Kenn, and Worle; they
have been divided and arranged into lots with excellent
judgment and the most thorough local knowledge. Mr.
Robins having made his survey of the property. has the
greatest satisfaction in inviting capitalists to an inspection
of the many desirable investments which it offers. The
first and most important is Lot One,
THE CLEEVE COURT ESTATE,
WITH ITS ELEGANT MANSION,
of which possession may be had, seated on a rising ground
embosomed in the most luxuriant and delightful pleasure-
grounds. extending to three acres,
ADORNED WITH STAELY TIMBER TREES,
giving the appearance of " One Continued Park," whilst
the position of the residence is such as to command not
only its entire domain but a most extensive view, including
the new church of Cleeve, and the more ancient one at
Yatton. The exterior of the mansion is of a pleasing cha-
racter, partaking of the time of the sixteenth century, al-
though of modern erection ; within the most complete
family accommodation is offered, indeed an abode pos-
sessing more of real comfort cannot be imagined. There
are amp'e offices, kitchen and flower gardens, the boun-
dary of the property being on the high road on one side,
and on the other it reaches to
CLEEVE TOOT, A STUPENDOUS CRAG,
which is sear in singular contrast with the woods, from,
all parts of this extensive vale. It is also in the immedi-
ate vicinity of those
TRULY PICTURESQUE AND SEQUESTERED
DELLS, THE BROCKLEY COOMBE AND
GOBLIN COOMBE,
objects of considerable natural beauty, forming. as if by
some freak of nature, extensive valleys, adorned by rich
and luxuriant plantations, extending for many miles along
forest glades, with drives of the most diversified and lovely
description ; and ever and anon beautiful knolls of velvet
turf are seen, which to the mind's eye portray
THOSE VERY SYLVAN SCENES OUR IMMOR-
TAL BARD SO VIVIDLY DESCRIBES FOR
THE MEETING OF OBERON AND TITANIA, IN
HIS " MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM."
Attached to the mansion are very complete outoffices and
farm buildings.
THE DOMAIN OF CLEEVE COURT INCLUDES
TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY ACRES,
with some of the richest grazing land, two excellent farm
residences, and suitable buildings,
EXTENDING TO HENLEY WOOD AND
CADBURY-HILL;
a most extensive and luxuriant sheep walk, opposite to
which there is a site for a villa, and from the summit,
where in days of yore a Roman camp was formed, the
most glorious and diversified panoramic scene is presented,
including the whole of the luxuriant north valley, with the
Bristol Channel and its moving scenery, whilst in the
distance the eye reaches the Chedder, Monmouthshire,
and Glamorganshire hills.
To a Gentleman inclined to field sports this property is
peculiarly suited, excellent shooting and fishing may be
obtained, and to a family its proximity to
THE RAPIDLY IMPROVING WATERING
PLACES OF WESTON. SUPER-MARE AND
CLEVEDON,
which are now, in conjunction with this property, within
five hours of the metropolis, offer their attractions to wile
away an idle hour. This property abounds in limestone,
and with it will be included all the importance of
THE MANOR OF YATTON,
with its privileges, several leaseholders, and the chapel of
St. James, or one-third of one of the aisles of the parish
church.
The Second Lot presents
A PRETTY COTTAGE ORNEE,
pleasantly situate in the road leading from Bristol to
Weston-super-Mare, not far distant from Cleeve Court
and the Clevedon-road Station ; it includes
SIXTY ACRES OF THE RICHEST DAIRY LAND ;
to a Bristol tradesman seeking to increase his health and
years, a more pleasant retirement from he daily avoca-
tions of business cannot be imagined.
THE FOUR CLA.VERHAM FARMS,
each with capital homesteads, useful farm buildings, and
most prolific and valuable orchards, comprising, respect-
ively, 226 acres, 135 acres, 41 acres, and 126 acres, occu-
pied by Mr. Henry Beakes, Mrs. Manning, Mr. Gre-
gory, and Mr. Mulford, may unquestionably be pronoun-
ced four of the most desirable farms in this district, in
which there is a Quakers' meeting house. Proceeding
from thence around by the village of Yatton, not far dis-
tant from the church, is
A VERY COMPACT ESTATE, CALLED
CADBURY FARM;
an excellent farm-house. with 22 acres of particularly rich
land, occupied by the Misses Gregory ; and on the Cleve-
land-road are
TWO EXCELLENT DAIRY FARMS,
of 155 acres and 92 acres, occupied by Mr. John Lyon
and Mr. Arthur Beakes, the former possessing a newly-
built residence, with excellent buildings, and the other a
very comfortable house and buildings, called the Mill flay
Farm. Proceeding from thence to
THE NAILSEA COURT FARM,
of 155 acres of the richest dairy land, situate a short dis-
tance from the station, with
AN ANCIENT MANORIAL HOUSE,
commanding an extensive and beautiful prospect, extend-
ing to the Brockley Hills, and containing a noble hall and
many chambers, and the interior being of the style of ar-
chitecture of the 16th century, would seem to invite some
man of taste to restore it to its original quaintness. There
are many useful buildings attached to this farm, besides
three walled gardens. Under this property
COAL ABOUNDS TO AN IMMENSE EXTENT.
Also a small Farm of 55 acres, part being in the Salt
Marshes, in the parish of Yatton, in the occupation of
Mr. James Gage. There is also a Farm in the parish of
Worle, comprising
UNE HUNDRED AND TWELVE ACRES OF
EXCELLENT SHEEP WALK,
besides several closes of meadow land, presenting to local
buyers unusually attractive lots. The properties are all
in the occupation of yearly tenants.
