Result of the Analyses of two samples of Water from "Haile Weston", near St. Neots. Jas. Macfarlane. The Great Northern Railway. Engineer's Office, King's Cross, London, N. 17th December, 1881.
[1881.]
Letterpress broadside handbill, report summary of analysis on two water samples from Hail Weston springs; on behalf of The Great Northern Railway. Sheet 240 x 170mm, 9½ x 6¾". Offered with contemporary extract from a newspaper about the springs, referring to this report (2).
There two springs at the village of Hail Weston, a few miles west of St Neots, reputed to have had medicinal qualities. They perhaps derive more fame from the poem by Michael Drayton entitled "The Holy Wells of Hailweston". The Great Northern Railway were keen to promote the springs, and by extension St. Neots as a spa destination, to encourage tourists onto their trains running north from London. These springs were used for medicinal purposes in the 16th and 17th centuries, but later fell into disuse. In 1844, the springs were sold and were then used by the Hail Weston Springs Co., who aerated, bottled and sold the water. In the early 1950s Hail Weston Springs Company was sold by Mr Page to Mr Bath, a local farmer. By 1954 the bottling plant had closed and the two wells were capped off.
Provenance: from a scrap album compiled c.1840 - 1880 by Alfred Towgood of Riverside, a paper mill owner at St. Neots, Huntingdon. He was also a Lieutenant in the Duke of Manchester's Light Horse.

In 1862, a public school opened on the site, with royal charter being received in 1864. Frederick Wilton Litchfield Stockdale (1786–1858) was a British artist. Stockdale was primarily a landscape artist, and his work was often published as engravings. He signed his work F.W.L. Stockdale. After working for the East India Company, Stockdale specialised in the antiquities of southern England and the West Country.

Engraving with very large margins. 305 x 430mm (12 x 17"). Spotting.
View of the Mausoleum, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, built as the tomb of Mausolus and his sister/wife Artemisia. It was published in Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach's 'Entwürst Einer Historischen Architectur', a study of the architecture of the ancient world. It was the last of the Seven Wonders to be destroyed, after earthquakes in the 15th century, leaving only the Pyramids of Giza. Fischer von Erlach (1656-1723) was a successful Austrian architect: his baroque works include the Schönbrunn Palace, Karlskirche, and the Austrian National Library in Vienna. He also studied ancient architecture, publishing 'A Plan of Civil and Historical Architecture' in 1721, taking on classical influences in his building.
