|b comprising the lordship or manor of Fifehead, with five hundred and seventy-four acres, three roads, and thirty-seven-perches, (be the same more or less,) of remarkably rich land, lying compact and of different qualities, but the principal part of it particularly well adapted to fattening cattle, and the dairy; with suitable dwelling-houses and out-buildings, in the possession of unexceptionable tenants; and three hundred and forty-six acres, one food, and one perch (be the same more or less,) of land, similar to the above, with suitable houses and out-buildings granted out by lease and copy, now determinable on one, two, and three lives.
|b This estate and manor are held under the Bishop of Bristol by two freehold leases, each for three young lives, renewable in the customary manner, with the privilege of filling up the copies and leases, and also that of granting out at pleasure, for three fresh lives, at any time during the term, about three hundred and six acres, one road, and twenty perches, (more or less,) of the land now in possession, which valuable privilege renders it very little to freehold of inheritance. The manor of Fifehead, bounded in great part by the River Stour, is situate in a pleasant and healthy part of the country, and comprises the whole parish of Fifehead, where the rates and taxes are remarkably easy.
