The above property is one of the most valuable contiguous to the City of Wellington.

This land, being part of the watershed, is generally supposed to be the property of the City Corporation, but, strange to say, has never yet been acquired by that body. For full particulars, conditions of title, &c., apply to Messrs Izard & Bell, Solicitors, Willis-street; or to the Auctioneers.
