 tends an hundred and thirty-nine milei, 

 and the average rent is 12 s. 6 d. * 



From Greta-bridge to Brought a continued 

 moor. From Bows to the fall of Tees, a vail 

 quantity of moors, but many tracks of grafs 

 about the villages, and fine meadows fpread 

 over the vales, along the rivers, of an high 

 rent, 20 s. an acre and upwards. 



From Brough to AJkrig, mountains and 

 moors. 



To Reetb and Richmond, chiefly ditto, 

 fome fpots of inclofed grafs, and fine vales, 

 that lett at 301. but they bear no proportion 

 to the wafte land. 



This is a track of as wild country as any 

 in England, continued mountainous moors, 

 the upper parts of which do not yield the 

 landlords a penny an acre rent; but the 

 vales, as I have already obferved, are good 

 grafs. The extent of this line is eighty- 

 three miles. As to the rent I know not 

 how to calculate it : I do not apprehend that 

 above one acre in fifty is cultivated ; if we 

 reckon the rent, at an average, at yd. per 

 acre, it is as much as it amounts to. 



* It is proper to remark, that in calculating theic 

 averag s, I reckon them according to diltunce ; fo that 

 a proportion may hold between the rents, when twenty 

 miles arc at \os. for inftance, and fifteen at 6;. bet. 

 Perfect exadtnefs muft not be expected, but I am not 

 far from the mark.
