<Paragraph rend="quote">THE Artist by whom the plates in this work have been etched from 
his own drawings, after a residence of nine years amidst the beautiful scenery of the 
North of England, flatters himself that the experience he has thereby gained, has enabled 
him to select, from his numerous portfolios, materials for publication, which may very 
much tend to facilitate the progress of those, who, in their study of landscape painting, 
are disposed to avail themselves of such assistance. Whatever may be the merits of these 
productions in other respects, to the praise of characteristic accuracy he feels he has a 
right to lay claim. He has always considered that fidelity of imitation is the first step 
to improvement in the fine arts; and that those who have not originally attended, with 
painful correctness, to the <i>minutiae</i> of nature, must be very ill qualified to form 
those grand ideal compositions, which, unless they are founded upon, and corrected by, an 
intimate knowledge of truth, are indeed but as

Gleaston Castle, which is south from Ulverstone five or six miles. Some useful drawing may
be got at Gleaston Castle; and Peel Castle, a few miles south of it, is not undeserving 
the attention of an artist.

excavated the rock, and who has given the whole to the public eye in its present beauty. -
There are four place between the bottom and top of the fall, from which it may be seen, 
the access to which is easy. A little building near the top of the fall, in which there 
are seats, commands a splendid view of Derwent Water, over the tops of the trees.

<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 34. This is the place where Mary Robinson (sometimes called
the beauty of Buttermere) for some years made a considerable advantage of public 
curiosity. She was a fine girl when fourteen, and a most interesting one at sixteen; what 
she was between that age and twenty-four is not known to the writer; but at the latter 
period many were disappointed, and Mary must certainly have been distressed, when the 
undiscerning were eager to be informed from herself, when modestly waiting upon them, how 
they might procure a sight of the beauty.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 35. Loggan House, in the vale of Langdale, is near six 
miles from Ambleside, lying about half a mile on the left of the road leading from that 
place to Borrowdale, over the Stake.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 36. Troutbeck is four miles from Ambleside, and two from 
the Inn at Low Wood. - It is a large village; the buildings are picturesque, and those who
delight in cottage scenery will rarely find a greater variety in so small a compass. From 
the road which connects the Inn and the village, are various stands, where the traveller 
may view Windermere with advantages that scarecly any other road in the neighbourhood of 
that lake can give him.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 37. The Horse Road between Keswick and Buttermere is 
through Newlands. Low Houses joins this road, and is about four miles from Keswick; 
Skelgill, with its Sycamores, is about half a mile to the left, and at right angles with 
the road at Low Houses.

<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 40. The church in Patterdale is a good object from many 
parts of the vale; it lies on the left of the road, about a quarter of a mile from the 
Inn, and is between it and the lake; the Yew tree, picturesque in ruin, is said formerly 
to have shaded considerably more ground than it does at present, which is probable, from 
the trunk being out of proportion with its impending branches.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 41. Grasmere has been many times celebrated. The Lake and 
Church, when connected with the surrounding scenery, from many points in the valley will 
wonderfully impress the mind with ideas of beauty. - But if this bottom be at present 
beautiful, how much more so might it be rendered, if every proprietor were anxious to do 
his best endeavour to add to it!
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 42. This view of Ambleside is from a lime-kiln near the 
junction of the rivers Brathay and Rothay; a place where pleasure-boats for the use of the
lake are moored. Langdale slate is sent in small craft from the landing to the foot of the
lake, whence it is taken below Backbarrow, to be conveyed by water to Liverpool, 
Manchester, and other places. The Bridge in this view is across the Rothay, and is called 
Rothay Bridge. The high mountain is Scandale Fell.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 43. The remote mountain in this view is Eagle Crag, where 
that voracious bird, the eagle, formerly built its nest. There are now none in the north 
of England. The last inhabited these rocks, and were destroyed about twenty years ago. The
river spanned by Stonethwaite Bridge, is that branch of the Derwent which runs from the 
summit of the Stake; the division of Langdale and Borrowdale, and of Westmorland and 
Cumberland.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 44. Askham Bridge is over the river Lowther, at the western
extremity of the village of Askham, about six miles from Penrith. On the opposite side of 
the river, and not a quarter of a mile from the bridge, is Lowther Hall, the magnificent 
gothic Mansion of the Earl of Lonsdale; designed by the ingenious Mr. Smirke, Junr. The 
trees at Lowther, particularly those that lie towards Penrith, are sublime from their 
antiquity; and perhaps, as landscape studies, superior to most to be met with in this 
island. A gentleman of universally acknowledged taste, describes the river Lowther, 
ornamented by its trees, as exhibiting scenes of superior beauty, and highy worthy the 
attention of those who would profit by the study of landscape nature.

<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 45. Nether Wasdale is at the foot of Wastwater, and Wasdale
head at the head of the lake, which lies in a right line, about fourteen miles north-west 
of Ambleside. This bridge is over the river Irt, about half a mile from the foot of the 
lake.

conical mountain is Yewbarrow.

<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 47. Stock Gill is a little river which runs through 
Ambleside. About half a mile up this river, from the Salutation Inn, is a fine water-fall 
called Stockgill Force; between the town and the force are many pretty, though inferior, 
falls of water, and the one given here is as a lesson in that sort of drawing.

<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 48. This view of Windermere is from a field above the Inn 
at Low Wood. The promontory is called Holm Point. Brathay House, the property of Henry 
Law, Esq. and the present residence of John Harden, Esq. a gentleman of fine taste, is 
seen surrounded by wood: Langdale Pikes, and the mountains of Eskdale and Borrowdale, 
close the view.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 49. Curwen Island, the property of John Christian Curwen, 
Esq. and the largest Island on Windermere, apparently uniting with the promontories, seems
to cut the lake in two; Storrs, on the first projecting land, is the property of Colonel 
Bolton, who has lately made vast additions to the house; the improvements, which are in 
good taste, do credit to the architect. The two ferry points, with Berkshire Island, lie 
between the houses of Mr. Bolton and Mr. Curwen. Calgarth, the seat of the Right Rev. the 
Bishop of Llandaff, is among the enclosures on the banks of the lake, and is seen beyond 
the Island House. The distant mountains are Fairfield, Scandale, Wansfell, Colda, and Hill
Bell. This view is from the Fellside, above Beech Hill.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 50. Elter Water, in Langdale, is four miles from Ambleside.
The house at the head of the lake is Elter water Hall, the property of the Rev. Mr. Byrom,
but at present the residence of Mrs. Fleming. Langdale Pikes are the last mountains in 
this scene.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 51. This view of the lake and vale of Grasmere is from the 
side of Loughrigg Fell, below the road to Langdale Chapel from Ambleside. There is only 
one island on this lake, but from it there is a fine panorama of the circumjacent country;
Helme Crag, a mountain of good figure from some parts of the valley, is seen above the 
church; beyond which is Steel Fell. Seat Sandal rises high; and at the intersection of the

<Paragraph rend="quote">Numbers 53, 54, 55, 56, are various studies made in Rydal Park. In
the springs are valuable foreground materials, some at the roots of trees; 55, and 56, are
two of them. Rydal Park is a fine spot for study: The trees are majestic; and the lakes of
Windermere and Rydal, in composition with the wood and mountains, exhibit some very 
extraordinary pictures. Some years ago it was the opinion of gentlemen who had been in 
many parts of the united kingdom and on the continent, that they had seen nothing equal to
Rydal Park. Although a great deal of the wood has recently been cut down; it is even at 
present a charming place. The writer has enjoyed much pleasure in contemplating the scenes
of Rydal Park, and is grateful for the privilege of studying there. He has frequently been
in the Park from ten to twelve hours without seeing a human being.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 57. This Birch tree was drawn on the side of Grange Fell, 
above Bowder Stone. The leaves of young Oak, Dock, and Briar are added.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 58. Oak and Ash. The Oak is one of the stag-headed trees in
Rydal Park, the Ash is from the banks of Ullswater.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 59, and 60. Loughrigg Fell is the western boundary of the 
vallies of Ambleside and Rydal. There is no hill of a moderate height in the neighbourhood
of Ambleside, that furnishes such a variety of singular scenes as Loughrigg Fell. A fine 
ascent to it is from Clappersgate, leaving the pubic road at No.7, in this work. A 
bird's-eye view of Windermere on the left, and in front the Coniston mountains present 
themselves. Blelham Tarn,&#x002A; Esthwaite Water, great and little Langdale, Elter Water,
Loughrigg Tarn, Rydal Water, Grasmere, with the villages of Ambleside and Rydal, are by 
turns seen from Loughrigg Fell; but the most impressive scene is from a projecting part of
the mountain, about three furlongs south east of Loughrigg Tarn. This walk may be 
agreeably varied by returning to Ambleside by a house called Brow Head and Millar Brig 
Stepping Stones, or by a somewhat more public road which is north of Brow Head: these 
roads unite near the Stepping Stones.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 61. It is the opinion of several people of acknowledged 
taste, that the mountains of Langdale afford to the eye, from many parts of the vale, a 
greater variety of fine forms than the mountains surrounding any other valley here. One of
the conical-topped pikes, and a grand surface of rock called Gimmer Crag, are the 
principal features of the scene before us. The drawing was made at a little distance from 
Wall End, which is about nine miles from Ambleside.

<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 62. There are many Raven Crags in Cumberland, Westmoreland,
and Lancashire; but this is the Crag which is so grand a feature of Leathes Water, and 
from the river issuing out of it. The scene presented here, is taken a little out of the 
way, on the left hand of the road from Ambleside to Keswick; twelve miles from the former 
place, and four from the latter.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 63. This view of the Vale of Newlands is from the west of 
Swinside. Hindsgarth and Goldscope display an interesting variety of line from this point,
being scarcely from any other situation so good.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 64. This scene on Newlands Beck is taken near a wooden 
bridge on the foot-road leading from Skelgill to Low Houses.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 65. The Alder is not always to be rejected; its branches 
are sometimes beautiful and frequently picturesque; and the leaves, when near the eye, 
often afford good drawing subjects; though the colouring will not answer so generally as 
Hazle, yet when properly introduced with other colours it may be found valuable. This is 
one of the little scenes of which there are so many in the neighbourhood of Ambleside.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 66. Hartsope, which is a village, consists of fourteen or 
fifteen houses, and is seven miles from Ambleside on the road to Patterdale over 
Kirkstone. It is near this place that the carriage and horse roads divide, meeting again 
at Goldrill Bridge near the Inn. From the side of Place Fell, which rises from the horse 
road just spoken of, there is a variety of fine views of Patterdale, some of which are 
brightened by Ullswater. One of the thirty large prints published in 1808, is from the 
mountain's side.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 67. This Wooden Bridge is over the principal stream flowing
through Great Langdale; Loggan House, (the 35th of this series of prints) is seen beyond 
the bridge on the margin of the mountain.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 68. The source of the Greta is Leathes Water, from which it
runs through St. John's vale, by Threlkeld to Keswick, and joins the Derwent at 
Portinscale. The view of Keswick here given, is from the road to Penrith, near the 
Turnpike-gate; the knob on the mountain is called Causey Pike; that in the same line, but 
more distant, is Grasmere, which mountain rises from Crummock Water, but displays the 
finest line from Lowes Water.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 69. The Weir, which causes a supply of water for the town's
Corn Mill, may be observed in this and the preceeding print; and as this view is up the 
river, the station to take it from will consequently be nearer Keswick than that for the 
former one: the Mill is beyond the building in ruins.

engulphed in fantastic scenery; a water-spout in prodigious volume fell many years ago on 
the mountain above, tumbling about rocks and trees in the wildest confusion, as may be 
seen by those who wish to visit Coom Gill. There is an interesting water-fall about half a

curious buildings, but it is now annually modernizing.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Number 78. This Plate exhibits one of those new buildings which 
afford comforts the proor inhabitants of the picturesque seldom enjoy; but it is just to 
observe that the wealthy residents of Ambleside, natives and strangers, are exceedingly 
attentive to the wants of the needy, and supply them with a discrimiinating kindness that 
does equal honour to their heads and to their hearts.

<Paragraph rend="quote">beautiful when of middle growth; though few trees, in the eye of a
painter, are so interesting as in that stage which is between perfection and decay.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">It is in the spring and autumn that we are to look for the benfits
of that arrangement which depends for its excellence on colour. Trees, during the summer 
months, are so much of one hue, as to derive beauty from contrasted form alone. The 
Sycamore is a majestic tree, but its deep green in summer, and unpleasant brown in autumn,
render it unfit as a principal, where, as its companions, there are many others of various
brilliant tints. Sycamores are most at home as accompaniments for buildings; and then, 
when aided by stately evergreens, the effect of the whole is uniformly grand.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">A rich volume of foliage, produced by the union of several trees 
of the same sort, must always stand as the principal of a group, if in autumn, they will 
probably change to a tint agreeably warm: these must be succeeded by others of a different
kind, and such as will in all likelihood become of a colder hue than the principal. The 
warmth must nevertheless be repeated in smaller masses, and the cold colour 
proportionately to the end of the group. Should this or any other comnbination consist of 
one hundred trees, it may be of twelve or fifteen kinds. Light evergreens contrast well 
with deciduous trees; but dark must be sparingly introduced.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Should there be a place, or places, within the angle of vision, in
which only one, two, or three trees may be necessary, plant more; perhaps a dozen: but 
care must be taken that the trees intended to remain will suit the spot.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Every rock or crag should be planted where planting is 
practicable, unless a favourite scene or scenes should be injured by the operation. In the
grounds of Alexander Worswick, Esq. at Leighton Hall, the plants seem to thrive well by 
being inserted in the cracks of limestone. In many of the vallies near Ambleside, we see 
trees growing out of soil-less rocks in the midst of green fields; these probably are the 
productions of nature, but they may doubtless be raised by art, if on the most favourable 
part of the rock an enclosure be effected by a few stones; a genial mould put within it, 
and a proper attention paid to watering the roots of the plants until they have struck 
into the neighbouring soil. Some will object to this kind of planting, on account of the 
tardy growth of trees in such situations, and the necessary expence incurred for their 
security against the depredations of cattle; but surely where so much of ornament and of 
utility may eventually be expected, it will doubtless pay the cost, as the fencing will 
often be sufficient, if of the cheapest wood that can be obtained.

that while he is adding to the general stock of beauty he will in a proportionate degree 
grow rich by it.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Every man knows, at least every man of taste knows, that in all 
frequented vallies, particularly such as are not only environed by high mountains, but the
bottoms of which are of uneven surfaces, the land will sell for the most money which is 
the most beautifully wooded.

<Paragraph rend="quote">To such of his worthy friends in Ambleside, Grasmere, or other 
parts, as are here usually called Statemen (i.e. landed Proprietors), the writer with the 
greatest good will, offers his advice; in the first place to plant every part of the 
wastes on their estates, the corners of some of their fields, and the rocks and crags 
where it is too expensive to procure land by blasting.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">There seems to be a predilection here for the Scotch Fir, and the 
Larch; but plantations of Firs and of Larches spoil the face of a country; the one by 
black patches of deformity, and the other by a green too vivid for extensive masses: the 
spiral tops of these trees are likewise unpicturesque, unless in occasional combination 
with the round heads.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Where trees will be much seen, plant principally Oak, Ash, and 
Birch. But among them introduce sparingly the various sorts of Fir; with Sycamore, Larch, 
Black Italian Poplar, Lombardy Poplar, Willow, Alder, &amp;c.

<Paragraph rend="quote">an acre, the following proportion will be likely to produce the 
desired effect, viz. Larch, seven hundred; Black Italian Poplar, five hundred; the 
varieties of Fir, four hundred; Oak, two hundred; Ash, two hundred; Birch, one hundred and
fifty; Sycamore, one hundred; Beech, fifty; Spanish Chestnut, twenty-five; Elm, 
twenty-five; Lombadry Poplar, twenty-five; Willow, twenty-five; Alder, twenty-five; Holly,
twenty-five; Elder, twenty-five; Hazle, twenty-five; but should the soil appear 
inhospitable to any of the above trees, they must be omitted, and the deficiency supplied 
by others.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">It is now proper to speak of the distribution of the proposed 
materials. The protection of the delicate by the robust and hardy plants, is the first 
thing to be attended to; the north and east sides ought to be planted by the quickest 
growing and most hardy trees, such as the Black Italian Poplar, and the Larch, several 
rows deep; and the beautiful trees introduced three deep on the south and west sides of 
the plantation; and, for the sake of variety, these should be occasionally introduced 
among those on the north and east sides: the body of utility is then to be put in the 
centre, though sprinkled with beauty in groups of twenty, fifteen, ten, seven, five, three
and single trees.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">When thinning is necessary, it must be performed with great care, 
and with attention to a variety of objects. In young plantations, after the plants have 
come in contact, the beautiful and healthy ones must be encouraged by ridding them of 
their worthless neighbours; and a man must ask himself how he shall annually reduce the 
quantity in every plantation, so that the remainder, when of full growth, may be not only 
beautiful, but valuable?
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">To know how to plant, but more particularly how to rid, requires 
attentive consideration. If a man be a geometrician, he will find benefit by it; and 
should his arithmetical powers be at his fingers' ends, he cannot long be ignorant of the 
value of any particular tree in any place, and at any given period of its growth.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">One who frequently looks at his plantations with a wish to improve
them, will soon find his mind opened; he will see that the Oak singly, in grand masses, or
in combination with other deciduous, and a moderate proportion of evergreen trees, will 
afford him delights he never before dreamed of; but the perfection of this feeling will be
the work of many years; in the mean time,

</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">it will be well during every season to produce as much beauty, 
consistent with his interest as a timber merchant, as is possible, from the commencement 
of his planting, to the grandeur of its maturity.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Whatever the size of the estate may be, there ought to be, at 
least, as many trees as acres that are tolerably advanced towards a state of perfection, 
and the judicious improver will always take care to have a succession of younger plants, 
that he may be enabled to make money, while he is adding to the celebrity of his 
possessions; thus causing utility and beauty to go hand in hand.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">As an instruction book for the propogation of trees, the Treatise 
called Hints to Planters, written by Francis Dukinfield Astley, Esq. may be safely 
recommended; it is a work replete with accurate observation and good sense, and contains 
much valuable information in a small compass.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">It may be well here to say a little more on planting, particularly
to those gentlemen who have large estates, and who have the inclination to improve them. 
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">We must consider, first, What is the quantity of land that ought 
to be planted, and with what description and number of trees it ought to be planted, in 
order to render the estate more valuable at one or more given periods of time? To 
ascertain this, it will be advisable to study the genius of the property, that it may be 
determined what ratio the quantity of land for plantations of utility ought to bear to 
those of beauty.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">In a level country, or in one in which the eminences are gentle, 
there is less to be done in forming a picture, than in rugged vallies which are environed 
by high mountains; but the mountainous district affords, however, the finest scope for the
display of taste and energy.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Of mountain lines, that is best which is higher in the middle than
at its intersection with other mountains; and when it is composed of an agreeable mixture 
of the curve and square. Horizontal lines, if of considerable length, are bad; indeed as 
are long straight lines, of any description.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Lines in which the same forms too frequently recur are uniformly 
disgusting.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">The improver, in surveying his materials, will soon be able to 
discover his finest mountain line; he must then move in every direction, until he has 
found that point where all the intermediate objects combine with it in the best possible 
manner: In this way he must likewise avail himself of every other beautiful station the 
land will afford him, from all which, if required, it will be easy

</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">to select the most desirable situation for a house; but whether 
for building, or as a stand for beauty, no bearing, not even an easterly one, is to be 
neglected.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">When he has thus become possessed of the most desirable points, he
will return to and of course describe them, beginning with the best, which is to be marked
as No.1, gradually descending to the one least worthy of his attention.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">It is presumed, in every instance, that an eye to what might be 
done by planting as an improvement, has as much engaged the original attention of the 
improver, as in its present state the scene before him engages it.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Of a great circle it is said, that sixty degrees is the favourable
quantity of vision; but perhaps beauty is sometimes seen under greater angle, and the 
subject at one stand may be interesting for half a circle; in such a case it must be 
ascertained if improvement can be produced by dividing. The introduction of many trees may
effect this; but should such interruption to the general view take place, it must be so 
performed as to hide those parts which are least valuable, and as much as possible 
contribute to the beauty of the new arrangement.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">When the best points are discovered, it will then be proper to 
examine the materials of which the scenes viewed from them are composed, and to take away,
or add, as the judgment shall direct. Wood, however, musts be felled with a very sparing 
hand, particularly in those places where there is already too little. Even from the best 
situation, should a tree offensively obtrude itself upon the eye, thereby obscuring some 
favourite object, it wil be proper to consider in what degree all other stands, from which
that tree may be seen, would be affected by its removal, and a balance of loss and gain 
deduced from that consideration. 
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">If in a situation hiding nothing good, an ugly tree should present
itself, that tree ought not rashly to be destroyed, particularly if its top be fine; for 
by planting others near it, it may become a useful appendage to the scene. 
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">If from various stands there appear upon the premises unpleasant 
lines of wood, those lines must either be broken by occasional thinning, or be partially 
planted out, should such planting be practicable; but this, as before, must be carefully 
done, and, as in the instance of single trees, these unpleasant lines must be examined 
from every point where they can be seen.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">That which is a straight or a monotonous line from one point, may,
owing to a variety of circumstances, be good from another point.

the extent of property considerable, much may be done in aid of

<Paragraph rend="quote">the distance, whatever materials it be composed of. Every 
eminence, whether of rock or of soil, must be consulted, and be planted, if the picture 
require it: It is upon these hillocks that unpleasant objects are to be cut off; the lower
grounds must likewise be decorated with groups of trees, of various sizes, and as various 
sorts: to complete the picture, trees must arise in massy grandeur, near the eye; and, in 
some instances, encircle the station, so that the composition may be seen either from 
within, or on the outside of the adjacent wood.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Before any trees are planted, the ground must be staked out, 
encircling the plots allotted for the groups of trees, and describing the line which is 
proposed to separate the side screens from the field land.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">In some instances the side scenery of different stations may be 
united; and, if apparently more beneficial, several of the lesser enclosures laid 
together.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">We will now suppose that, by destroying and thinning, deformity 
has been in some sort transformed into beauty; and that, by the proposed planting, the 
various prospects will be rendered, in a series of years, much finer than in their present
state. It is now proper to consider the necessary depth of the screens, and of what 
materials they ought to be composed.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">For the beauty of every individual scene, the groups of trees in 
the screens are not required to be deep, but massy, and composed of the most interesting 
trees; and these ought to be so arranged that they will, in all probablity, when grown, 
compose in an elegant manner. No tree equals the Oak, for the grandeur of its 
ramifications, and the massy beauty of its foliage; and, as a principal, it is superior to
any other tree; particuclarly on account of its colour in spring and autumn: the only 
objection to it is the slowness of its growth. The greatest possible care, however, must 
be taken, to plant such trees, whether quick or slow of growth, as are not only suitable 
to the soil, but will most materially add to the majesty of the scene, when arrived at 
their full age: and, as it is a desirable object to do much in a little time, it will be 
well to plant, with all such trees, various rapid growers; and as the latter become 
troublesome or useless, they will of course be taken out of the grounds, to make room for 
their more valuable neighbours.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Oak, Ash, Birch, Sycamore, English Elm, and Spanish Chestnut, are 
grand trees, when arrived at maturity; and are beautiful at all ages. Ancient Firs, Yews, 
and Larches, are sublime objects; but the Poplar and Willow tribe are generally most

</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">A road, the continuation of which is an avenue of trees, impresses
the mind with ideas of grandeur, especially if that avenue be composed of aged Oaks, Elms,
or Sycamores: the grandeur will be best preserved where the trees are all of the same 
kind. This idea has superseded the Brunonian system, which abolished all straight lines. 
If, in an estate, it is intended to make an avenue, it must be in that part of it where 
nothing is to be attempted by the grouping of trees: for grandeur of the description here 
spoken of, cannot be combined with the beautiful.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">A plantation of evergreens, if properly managed, will ultimately 
produce an excellent effect: but the man who would make the most of such materials, must 
do it by considerable study. He ought to know the name of every distinct tree, and the 
soil requisite for its most advantageous culture; he must likewise, from repeated 
experiment, average the growth of every individual tree, by periods of ten years each, 
ending with one hundred years. Finally, he must, if practicable, make accurate coloured 
drawings of all these trees, at the periods above mentioned, and all on the same scale. 
Having furnished himself with the necessary information, and having a painter's eye, he 
will presently see how to make the best advantage of it.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">After an estate is planted, the future business will be to make 
the best use of that planting. All Favourites, particularly those in interesting 
situations, ought to be encouraged, by that kind of attention which will produce rapid 
growth. The eye that has acquired taste, by long observation, will always be aware where 
thinning may be advantageously performed; and will never proceed to indiscriminate 
extermination.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">There are lands in the vicinity of the lakes, which, after they 
had been judiciously thinned, and after the proprietors had pocketed thousands in 
consequence, would probably sell for more money than they would in their present state: of
this description are several lands round Derwent Water; such is the Greenwich-Hospital 
estate; the Water-End estate, the property of Lord William Gordon; and that of Mr. 
Stephenson, at Lowdore.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">There is not so much of redundancy on Mr. Pocklington's grounds, 
though some of them would be benefitted by reducing the quantity of wood.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Castlerigg, near Keswick, is a divine situation; and Derwent Park,
where it adjoins the common, is scarcely to be equalled. What an accumulation of money 
would there be to the veteran tars of Old England if one half of the wood under Wallow 
Crag was cut away; not by beginning at the park, and ending in a straight line half way 
between the park and Barrow Common:

barbarity and ignorance. Several foot paths ought to be made between Castlerigg and Barrow
Common through the woods under Wallow Crag; which might be done, and well done too, with 
one fifteenth the sum that would be acquired by rendering these walks the most beautiful 
in England.
</Paragraph>
<Paragraph rend="quote">Water-End has long been under the superintendance of its 
proprietor. The house, which is of one story only, is peculiarly adapted to its situation;
and the grounds about it are exquisite and have been attended to with great feeling, as 
being the component parts of many fine pictures: the extensive woods on the banks of the 
lake, belonging to his Lordship, require thinning: the vale of Keswick would be 
wonderfully beautified by the aid of the axe properly applied.

<Paragraph rend="quote">The trees about Lowdore are in too great profusion: to take one 
half of them away would be much to improve this deservedly admired place. The chasm 
through which the river passes, is immense; and therefore the fall of water is generally 
subdivided and obscured: the course of the stream ought to be conducted on the western 
side of the chasm, to the part of the rock which is nearest to the mill, from the summit 
of which it would tumble, in one grand unbroken sheet, down the channel below; and thereby
be rendered the most splendid waterfall among the lakes.
