OF THE COUNTY OF TYRONE. iy 



To Fintona, diftance from Omagh about fix miles ; 

 foil in general good, dry, and much undulated ; pro- 

 duces, in general, good and certain crops. 



To Drumquin, Derg, and Clady, the latter about 

 twenty miles dillance from Omagh. Except Within 

 two miles of the town of Omagh, the whole of this 

 courfe exhibits nothing but one continued fcene of 

 dreary mountain ; though the country for feveral miles 

 round Drumquin was, not more than forty years ago, 

 very well wooded, the remains of which are ftill vifible 

 It is a foil, in general, peculiarly adapted for planting, 

 both for aptnefs of foil, fituation, and eafe in inclofing. 

 To Newtown-ftewart, diftance feven miles ; the 

 whole way an indifferent foil, thin, fubftratum ftrong 

 and tenacious. Much bog and mountain occur in this 

 direction, on both fides of the river. Between Omagh, 

 and the north part of the demefne of Rafti, there are 

 large trafts of excellent feeding-land, along the river 

 on either fides. Except fome fpots about Newtown- 

 ftexvart, there is little or no good land along the 

 banks, the whole of the way to Strabane, except fome 

 trifle on the weft fide of the river, near that town. 

 The banks in many parts are fteep, and of very little 

 value, except for planting, for which purpofe they are 

 extremely well calculated. 



From Omagh to Gortin, diftance about feven miles. 

 Near Omagh a bog of feveral hundred acres, which 

 will in time be of great advantage to that town : at
