Gilpin, William. Observations on the western parts of England relating chiefly to picturesque beauty. London: T. Cadell and W. Davies, 1798. pp. 219.Upon the whole, though there are many formalities about Mount Edgcomb, terraces particularly, and vistas near the house, a few puerilities also, and too little advantage taken every where of the circumstances which nature has pointed out; yet it is certainly a noble situation, and very well worth the attention of a traveller.[Text may be taken from a different source or edition than that listed as the source by Somers Cocks.]
