This fact isthe more remarkable, since there has been a quarry open for many years, within 200 yards of Northallerton, but the stone is only of a commonkind. From this circumstance, it is fair to expect, that provided thestone of Greenhow-hill can be delivered at Bolton-Percy for 6s. 6d. Perton, and at Cawood, Selby, Booth-Ferry, and Howden for 8s. It will bothbecome an article of tonnage in a descending direction, and a greatacquisition to that district; but as that neighbourhood has never bee...n inthe habit of paying such a high price for highway materials, it willprobably in the first instance meet with many objections, which may bereplied to in two ways--1st, that whatever is worth doing, is worth welldoing; and that the best materials are the cheapest;--and 2dly, if thesurveyors and overseers of Northallerton and Brompton have, by theirexperience, established the above fact, and found this stone cheaper thanthat at home, it is reasonable to conclude that the surveyors andoverseers of the highways in the neighbourhood of Cawood, Selby, andHowden, may do the same; for the soil of that district is equally fertileand rich as that of Northallerton; and the occupiers of it equallyopulent--hence their ability to do well whatever is worth doing.
