a great part is very ufeful land for cultivation, and 

 feme parts very fit for plantations of firs, timber, and 

 unden^'ood. It now produces very little, but if in- 

 clofed would be worth about los. per acre. 



Waltbam-Chace contains about 2000 acres, belong- 

 ing to the Biftiop of Winchefter, which, if properly 

 attended to, would produce a great quantity of fine 

 timber; and a confiderable part would make fine 

 paflure and meadow land, which would be worth at 

 lead 20s. per acre. There is alfo a confiderable 

 quantity of good corn land, which would be worth 

 from I OS. to 1 2S. per acre. 



Bagshot-Heath contains a very confiderable tradl 

 of land, the greater part of which is in Surry; upon 

 a rough calculation, between 2 and 3000 acres may 

 be in this county. It is principally of a very light 

 fandy foil, and produces very little. If plantations 

 of firs were made, they would thrive well, and be- 

 come profitable. 



The total quantity of wafte lands in Hants, ex- 

 clufive of the forefls, but including $^6y^ acres in 

 the Ide of Wight, is fuppofed to be 104,845 acres.
