 The only method of inclofurc ufcd here is 

 that of iione walls, and moft excellent fences 

 they are : The ftones fcattered over the land 

 they loofen from the earth, and fplit them 

 with wedges into fmall pieces ; thefe they 

 lay upon each other very artfully, huilding 

 with them the walls, which are not only 

 very ftrong (lafting in full perfection beyond 

 the memory of the oldell man), but have 

 llkewife a neat and good appearance. A 

 fmall addition of expence will cut them all 

 into regular oblongs, which make them look 

 to the full as well as any the moft regular 

 brick walls. 



The expence of cutting (in the common 

 manner), leading, and building the walls 

 feven quarters high under the cap ftones, 

 is 7 J. "^^ per rood, of feven yards running 



meafure. The gate-polls are of ftone, 



and excellent ones ; their coft fcarce any 

 thing; agate, irons, and poft.s, coft ioj". 



Upon thefe data we will proceed to cal- 

 culate the expence of incloling a given num- 

 ber of acres. 



In a Iquare mile of land there are 640 

 acres ; fuch a trad divided into fields of 71 

 ♦icrcs each, will lie as in plate IV. lig. i.

 Danby ha.^ been kind enough to inform me that the 

 price is now higher.
