Consisting of over an acre of ground, with three frontages, on a dead level' with Queen-street by the new Britomart Road, and only a few minutes' walk from Queen street Wharf, the allotment -Is undoubtedly a valuable and improving property. The Brewery is a mo»t substantial building, and erected at great expense by the late Mr X irkwood. The solid masonry composing the foundations, basement floor, and fine' cool vaults and cellars, combined with the excellence of the situation for a manufacturing site, render it a very desirable investment.
