Thence we Came to Woolsley 7 mile, to a Relations house S^r Charles Woolsley whose Lady was my Aunt, where we dined. Y^e house stands in a fine parke; y^e house is an old building and but Low, its built round a Court: there is a Large Lofty hall in y^e Old fashion, a dineing and drawing roome on y^e one hand, and a little parlour on the other, the best roomes were newer built w^{th} Chambers over them, and a very good staircase well wanscoated and Carv’d w^{th} good pictures. Y^e Rest of the house is all old and Low and must be new built. Y^e Gardens are good, both gravell and Green walks; there is a good River runns by it w^{ch} has dwarfe trees and honysuckles and binds on the Bancks, there is a great deale of good fruite and there are severall walks, one shady w^{th} high trees w^{ch} my Aunt told me my mother liked to walke in and so was Call’d her walke. I eate a sort of flatt strawbery like a button, w^{ch} grew in a second Crop from y^e same strawberys Roote w^{ch} produces its first Crop a sort of Large garden Strawberries and this sort afterwards. In this Country they burn all this tyme of y^e year July, their ffern and make y^e ashes up in balls and so keep to make Lye for driveing their Ruck of Cloth’s w^{ch} whitens them much. Not farre from hence they have y^e mines of the fine sort of Coale that is hard and will be pollished like black marble, for salts or boxes or such Like, y^e only difference it will not bear ye fire as marble does, Else it resembles it very much; there were of these mines just by but now they have Come to y^e End of this veine and so there is none within 6 or 7 mile.
