Rose Hill; A. E. Fuller, Esq., M. P. The grounds are at great extent, varied by hill and dale; and there are some effective masses of wood, with, however, too many unconnected clumps, and a great want of scattered trees throughout. The house has no pretensions, but there is a large and excellent kitchen-garden, and much glass, the whole kept in the highest order by Mr. Ogle, who has formed near it some beautiful ornamental scenery. On a knoll in the park there is a handsome temple, like that at Croome; and exterior to it, on the summit of a hill, there is a large observatory, conspicuous for many miles round, very substantial and commodious within, and containing some very superior astronomical instruments. The woods and plantations in this property appeared to us in a state of sad neglect, much too thick; and the trunks, particularly of the pines and firs, studded over with the stumps of decayed branches. There are some extensive and delightful shady and open walks, but we saw the place in far too great a hurry to be able to say much about it.
