comprehending
THE ISLANDS OF RASAY AND RONA,
IN THE WESTERN HEBRIDES,

THE TWO ISLANDS
EXCEED EIGHTEEN THOUSAND ACRES
THE SPLENDID EDIFICE
STANDS UPON RASAY,

at the south end of the island ; it is called Kirktown,
from its vicinity to the church ; is of recent elevation,
large, and commodious, with offices, prolific gardens, and
extensive pleasure grounds, and placed in a most pictu-

and to a sporting gentleman the advantages are beyond all
praise.
The domain is adorned by several

LOCHS OF GREAT E)-(TENT, ABOUNDING IN
TROUT,
and the magnificent scenery is varied by

NUMBERLESS ROMANTIC GLENS
The very picturesque structure of
. BROCFIEL CASTLE,

THE ANCIENT SEAT OF MACLEOD OF RASAY,
is one of the leading features on the Estate. This build-
ing covers the whole summit of the bold eminence on
which it stands, its massive walls being continuous with
the precipitous faces of the rock, which are so likened to
the masonry of which it is constructed, that it is difficult
to distinguish between the artificial and natural wall.
Here the proud outlines of the cliffs decline toward the
west by a general declivity, terminating in low shores, in-
termixed with grassy slopes.
