JOSH. biALLABY, Clerk to the Commissioners
Commissioners'•rooms, July 3d, 1846.

These Freehold Properties will be submitted to Public Com-
petition by the Commissioners, under circumstances peculiarly
favourable to Purchasers : in Lots, and under such terms and
conditions as it is deemed will facilitate a realization to the Ca-
pitalist and Builder.
The Land thus offered for Public Sale, is wholly within the
Township of Birkenhead, and under the protection of its Local
Acts, and has, by its favourable position, participated largely
in the great works carried out and those now in progress, un-
der the powers of the several Acts in force for thelmprovement
of the Town.

THE LAND SURROUNDING THE PARK, and perma-
nently attached to it, is situated between the carriage drives
and the several Magnificent roads lately executed in continuous
and uninterrupted boundary to that property, and within 2000
yards average distance from the Ferries. The great extent and
acknowledged beauty of the Park (in the formation and com-
pletion of which no expense has been spared) has secured a
nucleus to the Building Land, forming a prospect commanded
by the whole of that Property, of very striking and judiciously
varied scenery. The Park is situate on a gentle slope, gradu-
ally rising. to considerable elevation, and from which extensive
marine views, on the Lancashire and Cheshire shores, are
embraced. _ _ _ • _

ADJOINING the Park Land, with advantages little inferior,
is situated the Land called THE FOREST LAND, now under
Timber, and very eligible for Villas and other classes of Pro-
erty
p .
With a due regard to the principles and preliminary measures
upon which Building Land is brought into a condition for im-
mediate realization, the Commissioners have (aided most ma-
terially by the central position of the Property) been enabled to

effect is Complete union with the leading and conspicuous
thoroughfares in the Town.
THE CEMETERY AND CONWAY-STREET ESTATES,
within a short distance of the large Dock Works, now assuming

an aspect of rapid progressive importance have, in the manner
in which it has been finally decided on treating them, both as to
their connexion with the Agricultural Districts, and the scene
of business in the Great Floating Basin and auxiliary Docks,
secured to that property a permanent character and value that
cannot be prejudiced.

le New Market forms the entire
ilding, fronting Hamilton-street;

and aibiating Market-street, the kilter of wiiich it is decided to
widen to a correspondingwidth of 20 yards with Hamilton-street,
is divided into small desirable lots, interrupted only by side
approaches, and other accesses to the New Building.
It is almost needless to draw public attention to the rapid
growth of Birkenhead, or to the Great Works in progress and
prospect, to which, in a degree, may lie attributed as the active
agent, in combination with the natural resources and commer-
cial and rural position of the district, its rapid increase.
The rural and commercial sections of the Town have been
distinctly and judiciously defined. The Park is a gift_ to the

this noble public work engag the attention of die Commis-
sioners, it was happily combined with the consideration of
affording the superior and middle classes among the Merchants
of Liverpool and Birkenhead an opportunity, at a compara-
tively trilling cost, of establishing themselves in a rural district,

e fiom their scenes of business, combining th(
features of a Country Residence and Park Range, with the
comfort and safety of efficient lighting and watching regula.

at an easy st

tions. This wise Provision for the-public interest can but meet
with the eminent success it deserves.
