There is another river Called the Shark w^{ch} runs into y^e Uval. The market place is Large, it takes up two streetes Length when the Market is kept for their Linnen Cloth, Cottentickings w^{th} is the manufacture of y^e town. Here is a very fine Schoole for young Gentlewomen as good as any in London, and musick and danceing and things are very plenty here—this is a thriveing place. Hence I went a very pleasant roade Much on y^e downs mostly Campion ground, some few Enclosures, I went by Dunum the Earle of Warringtons house w^{ch} stands in a very fine parcke, it stands Low but appeared very well to sight, its old fashioned building w^{ch} appeares more in y^e Inside, and the furniture old, but good gardens walled in. I also passed by severall Gentlemens seates, one was M^r Cholmonlys, another M^r Listers, surrounded w^{th} good Walks and shady trees in rows, and severall Large pooles of water some Containeing severall acres. I passed over two or three stone bridges Cross Little rivers, so to Norwitch w^{ch} is 14 mile. I Entred Cheshire 3 mile before I Came to y^e town, its not very Large, its full of Salt works the brine pitts being all here about, and so they make all things Convenient to follow y^e makeing the salt so y^t y^e town is full of smoak from y^e salterns on all sides. They have within these few yeares found in their brine pitts a hard Rocky salt that Lookes Cleer Like Suger Candy and its taste shews it to be salt, they Call this Rock salt, it will make very good brine w^{th} fresh water to use quickly. This they Carry to the water side into Wales and by those Rivers that are flow’d w^{th} y^e tyde, and soe they boile these pieces of Rock in some of the salt water when y^e tyde’s in, w^{ch} produces as strong and good salt as the others. Thence I went to Sandy head 3 mile farther. There was 12 salterns together at Norwitch—all y^e witches are places they make salt in—Nantwitch and Droctwitch they make salt, for at Each place they have the salt hills where the brine pits springs: this is not farre from y^e place whence they digg the mill stones.
