In detached portions, and principally to the present 

 proprietors.

 a neat modern mansion, erected by the late Edward 

 Cleaver, Esq., of Nunnington ; when agent to the 

 marquis of Salisbury ; and was purchased on the 

 sale of that nobleman's property, together with the 

 manor of Sinnington ; with Marton and little Ed- 

 stone, by the late Robert Stockdale, Esq., clerk of 

 of the peace for the north riding of the county of 

 York ; from whom it. passed to the Rev. Richard 

 Dawson, of Salton-Gill, rector of Bolton-by- Bow- 

 land ; and by the marriage of Jane Constantine, 

 his second daughter, it became the property of 

 Pudsey Dawson, Esq., representative of the ancient 

 and honourable family of the Pudseys, of the above 

 named place, to whom the author is indebted foe- 

 several obliging communications.
