N.B. [2] The above were the prices mentioned
by Mr Willoch the Land Surveyor, as the
prices proper to be given to be given for
land purchased by Government, in the particular
spot in question. [Mr Willoch either then had
been a officer was employed by Mr
Wise owner of several pieces of Ground adjacent
to estimate the value of the his Wharf in the possess
under Lease to Campbell and White with
2 Acres and 7 perches of Land also adjacent
contiguous to Tothill Fields.] According to Mr
Willoch Meadow Land in that situation would
be worth but £6 a year per Acre: and of the
Lands contiguous to Tothill Fields there may perhaps
be about as much in Meadow as in Gardeners
Ground.
