On the 440 acre dock there area substantial dwelling-house and dficcs, stables, loose boxes, cowsheds, numerous /arda, and a dip. The woolshed and yards arc vithin 2 : } miles of Farndon Railway station. _ As the owner requires not only all Ins ivailablo capital, but also to bestow the whole >f his attention on a larger and more distant iroperty, he finds it absolutely necessary to •ffcct a sale of this. To ensure this result, the reserve is really nominal, having now been •educed to a sum far below value. Tim terms will be easy, as 'about two-thirds remains on mortgage at 7 per cent, for 8 years. As the property must be quitted, intending uiyers will do well to pay an early visit. Plans may bo seen, and further particulars obtained, at the office of MURRAY, COMMON, AND CO., Wtllihgton.
