The price at which it is rented will scarcely be credited by strangers, as it must be exceedingly inferior, if it does not fetch 3l. per vergée, which is at the rate of 7l. 10s. per statute acre.

Land for building, in the vicinity of the town, is so enormously high, that at times it has fetched one thousand pounds per English acre.
