Principal Inn, the Crown. The Church is a perpetual curacy under Blythe, dedicated to St. Nicholas, in the deanry of Retford. It contains nothing of particular interest, except the elegant mansion of the Dowager Viscountess Galway, which is situated at the southern extremity of the town. Mr. Harvey lately erected, in the centre of the adjacent wood, a curious and elegant cottage, where he occasionally resides. The village of Finningley is in Nottinghamshire, but the house, and part of the park, with the cottage, are in Yorkshire.
