OF SHROPSHIRE. 133 Colonel of the Shropshire Militia. The ancient mansion of the Gatacres stood a few milesnorthward of the Morfe, near Bridgenorth. The walls of the mansion of this ancientfamily were remarkable, on account of their being built of a dark grey freestone, coatedwith a thin greenish vitrified substance, about the thickness of a crown-piece, without theappearance of any joint or cement to unite the several parts of the building, so that itseemed one entire piece ; a most effectual preservation against bad weather. The hall wasnearly an exact square, singularly constructed. At each corner, and in the middle of eachside, and in the centre, were immense oak trees hewed nearly square, and without branches,set with their heads on large stones, laid about a foot deep in the ground, and with theirroots uppermost; which roots, with a few rafters, formed a complete arched roof. Thefloor was of oak boards, three incbes thick, not sawed but plainly chipped. The wholewas pulled down
