BOIS,THEYDON MONTjTHEYDOK GERNON, 

 STAPLEFORD TANEY, STAMFOI^D RIVERS, 

 GREENSTED, CHEPING ONCJAR, aiid HIGH 

 ONGAR, confifts of a vanoiifly'cornpourided and mixed 

 foil, chiefly of a good flaple, of a tradable nature, and 

 lying upon a gravelly loam, a brown and a white chalky 

 day. 



As a large proportion of this country is laid into grafs or 

 pafture ground, the dairy, with feme fuckling bufinefs, is 

 iTioft generally purfued ; but for either of thefe pnrpofes 

 there does not appear to be that necefTary choice or general 

 preference to any particular breed of cows, which it fhould 

 feem that the foil, the herbage, and the peculiar appropria- 

 tion of the milk, mod eflcntially requires. 



The lands on both fides of, and hanging towards the 

 Roding River, confiil of a deep rich gravelly loam, well 

 adapted to the culture of clover, forming excellent paflure 

 and very good corn land. Proceeding fouth-eaflerly from 

 the Roding River, and extending thence through the parifhcs 

 of STONDON, KELVEDON HATCH, DOD- 

 DINGHURST, NAVESTOCK, STAPLEFORD 

 ABBOT, LAMBOURN, and HAVERING BOWER, 

 the rich mellow foil is in a great meafure lofl in a flrong 

 loam, upon a chalky, and a wet tough clay. 



By hollow draining a confiderable improvement has been 

 made in thefe lands, a large proportion of which, are under 

 grafs, and ufualiy depaftured by dairy cows. 



The foil of the land in the neighbourhood of BARKING. 

 including the pariflies of GREAT ILLFORD, WAN- 

 STED, LITTLE ILLFORD, EAST and VV^EST 



HAM, lies chiefly upon a brown tender clay and a gravel.
