[]

THIS Catalogue was originally written on the blank pages of Kitchen's Engliſh Atlas, by Mr. GRAY. His own extenſive reſearches into the topography of this iſland furniſhed him with many of the particulars; the Summer tours which he made ſupplied him with more; and to theſe he was frequently adding, from the information of ſuch perſons on whoſe taſte and judgement he could beſt depend.

A few copies were firſt printed, and interleaved, with a view that thoſe, to whom they were preſented, might at their leiſure, make ſuch ſhort remarks as their own perſonal knowledge of the ſeveral counties enables them to do; and in theſe to add or expunge what they may think proper. Becauſe, as, on the one hand, it is poſſible ſome places worthy of note may be omitted, ſo, on the other, ſome may be mentioned which are hardly deſerving of the traveller's attention. The excellent [iv] perſon before-mentioned, who made the Catalogue, was apprehenſive of this; and was therefore far from thinking his manuſcript perfect. Yet, as many of his friends had tranſcribed it in his life-time, and many more have requeſted copies ſince his deceaſe, it was thought beſt to print it in this pocket form; not only for their preſent gratification, but as the moſt likely means of rendering this little work complete, and of fitting it hereafter for the eye of the public.

The preſent prevailing paſſion for viewing and examining the beautiful ſcenes which abound in our native country, precludes every neceſſity for an apology for the publication now offered to the World, and the name of the Compiler will ſecure to it a favourable reception. What Mr. GRAY thought important enough to engage his attention, thoſe for whoſe uſe it is intended will not receive with neglect. Scenes, Situations, Seats, and Antiquities, ſelected as worthy of notice by the elegant Author of the Church-Yard [v] Elegy, will be viſited with a degree of reſpect unfelt before. To his taſte no perſon will venture to diſſent, and to his judgement few but will readily ſubſcribe.

As the preſent Catalogue was compiled ſeveral years ſince, ſome alterations, by change of property or by deaths, may have happened in the names of the owners of particular ſeats—theſe however can be but few, and, it is preſumed, of no material conſequence; but as the Publiſher wiſhes to be accurate, he will very thankfully receive any corrections which may render the Work more perfect, and by that means more uſeful.

The copies of the former Edition where interleaved, in this the blank leaves are placed at the end, upon a more convenient plan. See page. 63, &c.

(*) This Mark placed before any place, denotes that it is more particularly worthy of Notice.
