box in the points, angles, squares, and roundlets, and handsomely 

 turfed in the intervals or little walks thereof ; which knotts, and 

 the flower roots therein growing, we estimate to be worth £2^. los. 



In the middle part of which four knotts is one large round, 

 paved with small pebble stones ; in the middle whereof stands 

 one handsome Fountain of white marble, which, ^vith the pipes 

 of lead and cocks thereunto belonging, we value to be worth ;^20. 



Unto which Fountain one pavement of Flanders brick, six 

 foot broad, extends itself from the East of the said Manor or 

 Mansion House, up the middle of the said Oringe Garden, which 

 we value to be worth . 



The other three alleys or little walks betwixt the said four 

 knotts are paved with pebble stone, worth in both £2. 



The middle of which said three allies leadeth from the said 

 Fountain unto a garden or Shadow house, paved with Flanders 

 brick, and handsomely benched, standing in the middle of the 

 East wall of the said Oringe Garden ; the materials of which 

 house are worth £^. los. 



There are four large and handsome gravelled walks inclosing 

 the said four knotts ; the value whereof we include in the foresaid 

 yearly value of the said Oringe garden. 



In the side of which said Oringe Garden there stands one 

 large Garden House ; the out walls of brick ; fitted for the keeping 

 of Oringe trees ; neatly covered with blue slate, and ridged and 

 guttered with lead ; the materials of which house, with the great 

 doors and the iron thereof, with a certain stone pavement lying 

 before those doors, in nature of a little M^alk 4 foot broad and 

 seventy-nine foot long, we value to be worth £66. 13s. 4d. 



In which said Garden House there are now standing in square 

 boxes, fitted for that purpose, forty-two Oringe trees bearing fair 

 and large oringes ; which trees, with the boxes and the earth and 

 materials therein feeding the same, we value at ten pounds a tree, 

 one tree with another, in toto amounting unto £420. 



In the said Garden House there now also is one Lemon tree 

 bearing great and very large lemons, which, together with the 

 box that it grows in, and the earth and materials therein feeding 

 the same, we value at ;£20.

 tree, which, together with the box that it giows in, and the earth

 the square boxes they grow in, and the earth and materials 

 therein feeding the same, we value at three pounds a tree, one
