is of a square form, was built in 1686 out of the ruins of a part of the
former, by Thomas, Earl of Thanet. Appleby Castle survived the attacks
of the Parliamentary Army, under the influence of its owner, the
aforesaid Countess Anne, but was compelled to yield in 1648. The church
of St. Lawrence, which was partly built by the same spirited lady,
contains a noble monument to her memory. The market is one of the best
supplied with corn in its vicinity. It however possesses but little
trade, and no manufacture of importance.
_Market_, Saturday--_Mail_ arrives at 1-1/2 A.M., departs 11-3/4
P.M.--_Fairs_, October 7 and 8, for sheep, &c; November 24, for
sheep and oxen; November 5, for pigs.
