seems to have been in good preserva-
tion till dilapidated by the civil wars of
the seventeenth century; but the great
object of attraction here, is Harewood
House, the seat of the Earl of Hare-
wood ; equally magnificent and com-
modious ; the mansion was erected, in
1760, by Adams and Carr, and the
grounds laid out in great taste by
Capability Brown: this princely domain,
says Dr. Whitaker, is a fortunate place,
blessed with much natural beauty and
fertility, and uniting in the compass of
a country village, a dismantled and pic-
turesque castle, a modern palace, and
a parish church filled with unmutilated
sculptures of the 14th and 15th centu-
ries. ' The parish contains the town-
ships of Alwoodley, Dun Keswick,
East Keswick, Weardley, Weeton, and
