CORSTORPHINE HILL AND BELGRAVE PARK.— To FEU, 100 Acres or more,
according to Plans, in Squares, Crescents, Terraces, and Splendid "Winding Roads,
having Gates and Lodges, and within the Grounds. It is intended to have a Handsome
Church, with a tower and peal of bells, a Reading Room, Music Hall, and Ballrooms, also
an Artesian AVell, and other Attractions which will add much to the comfort and amuse-
ment of the Inhabitants of this splendid spot, which is protected on the North and East by
Plantations, and open to the South and West, affording magnificent Views. This is, with-
out exception, the finest situation in the kingdom, and the most healthful, as it has proved
to me for the last seven years or thereby. Several Sites are now Feued on the Ardmillan
lioad. ROBERT MASON, Proprietor.
