Tarfat Farm, Strichen

FARM TO LET.

THE FARM of TARFATT, in the parish of Strichen, as presently occupied by Alexander Anderson, will be Let for such a number of years as may be agreed upon.  It consists of upwards of 60 acres of arable land, about 12 whereof are old infield; the rest being on a clay soil, is very susceptible of improvement; and as it is within a mile of the Lime Quarry of Strichen, Lime can be had at a very easy rate.  It is likewise not above half a mile from the village of Mormond - which local advantages add much to the value of this Farm.

The present tenant will shew the boundaries; and application for particulars, and offers, may be made to John Anderson, Factor at Strichen.
