these houses the Penitentiary House will would be distant the whole
length of the premises land in question which is at leas being upwards of half a
mile. Over this part of the road is thrown the scarce
perceptibly -rising bridge called in the Maps York Bridge, under which
runs the brook which in part after at first bending, and in other
part but in its latter lower part of its course passing through the premises, empties itself into
the Thames, washing after it has passed under the
Bridge a wall h range of building belonging to the
Distillery and reaching to the River. On the East
side the premises are bounded (setting aside the Public House at the South East corner the Falcon
kept by Death for about half their
length by the Brook above mentioned which after crossing
the great road under a bridge as little unconspicuous
as York Bridge and skir come out by the side
of the Public House and forms a boundary to the
road, with under the appearance of a ditch, till that
Eastern road, as you pass along it from the Public House
takes a pretty sudden turn to the right: at which place
the watercourse, or at least the a branch of
it enters, leaving the road to turn and
it, quits the road to enter the grounds (which is are here
meadow land) through which it runs till it meets
with the great Northern Road from Battersea to Wandsworth at York Bridge.
It is to be observed that this Watercourse where it enters
the fields Grounds does not form the boundary of the premises:
the land of on both sides being (with the apparent view
of meeting the Canal spoken of in the Re H. of Commons Report
of 1784) included in the purchase.
