to the w. side of Hartlenope then shall also the two foresaid high lands come within a handspikes length near one to the other saile in right with them and so you shall run right into that new channel along through that aforesaid land and come against the buye upon the sands on the s side of the Deep again in the right fareway When that you get againe deeper water or have the two fire-beakons on the n. side one in the other then goe in towards them and further as hath been before said About seven leagues to the n. wards of the Teese lyeth the River of Sonderland a little to the n. wards of the Paps which are very good marks for to know the land by thereabouts When the Paps are s s w. from you and that you are about an English mile from the land then you are right before the River of Sonderland the ground is there about indifferent clean but somewhat stony you may ankor there in four five and six fathome On both sides as well on the n. point as the s point of the River it is stony On the n. point standeth a Beakon in the water there you must run in within a little ships length along by it being past that you shall get deeper water to wit a fathom and a halfe and two fathome at low water but upon the barre remaineth no more then three foot with a common spring and high water there is about two fathome and a halfe or a little more After this aforesaid first depth of a fathome and a half Sonderland or two fathom you shall meet again with a stony floore about three ships length broad upon it is at high water about eleven or twelve foot deep according as the Tides shall run being over it there it is againe deeper A little past that is a narrow place where a long ship shall scarce be able to wend within it it is wide enough and every where good ground From the Teese to Tinmouth the Course n. n. w. eight or nine leagues Tow leagues to the fourth wards of Tinmouth lyeth the point of Sonderland but close to the s wards of Tinmouth goeth in the river of Newcastle From the point of Tinmouth shooteth off a ledge of rocks you must saile in by it leaving it on the starboard side The marks for to saile into the River are two fire-towers or fire-beakons which stand upon the n. shore bring them one in the other or the innermost that is the highest a little to the n. wards of the outermost or lowest and saile so right in along by the aforesaid ledge of rocks on the n. side and so you shall have upon the showldest two fathome at halfe flood a s w. Moon maketh there full sea The s shoare is flat you may lead it in there with the sounding pole for ships that goe not deep in ten foot at halfe flood When you come within run all along by the n. shoare until past the little Town Sheels edge then over to the other shoare untill you come through the crooked reach there the river lyeth up againe to the n. wards and then to the s wards to Hawke-bil and about by it to the Towne Newcastle Seven or eight leagues to the n. wards of Tinmouth Bly lyeth the Cock Island betwixt them both about halfe wayes lyeth a River called Bly where the French men do much saile to fetch Coale From the n. point of this River runneth off a ledge of rocks a great shot of a cast piece about s e. into the sea but the s side and the Coast to the s wards of it is very clean and sand-strand Upon the s point stand two Beakons if you will sail in there bring them one in the other and sail right in with them and then you can take no hurt of the foresaid ledge or riffe of the n. poynt When that you come by or thwart of the outermost of the two foresaid Beakons you shall see there by it another smaller Beakon that standeth upon a little ledge of rocks that shooteth off from the s point leave that on the larboard side and run in along close about n. wards of it The foresaid ledge of rocks on the n. side remaineth at high water a good wayes from the land and also at a spring tide above water within it is a bight there it is good lying for a n. or n. e. wind and there remaineth at low water two fathome depth In the mouth of the River it is with an ordinary tide and high-water about two fathome deep or somewhat more and it floweth there two fathome up and downe so that at low water it falleth almost altogether dry The Cocker Island is a very little Island Cocker Island and not high it lyeth about a halfe league from the land you may come to an ankor in it for an e. s and s e. wind but the wind coming to the n. wards of the e. maketh there a bad road for you must lye betwixt the Island and the maine land where you have no shelter for a n. wind On the s side of the Island the ground is foul and a little to the s wards of the Island runneth off a foul ledge of rocks from the shore untill thwart or past the Island He that cometh from the s wards must keep the Coast of Bambrough without the Island or else he should not faile to saile upon the point of that foresaid ledge Betwixt the ledge and the Island it is also very narrow so that a man standing at low water mark upon the rocks of this ledge should almost be able to cast with a stone to the Island For to sail in there take heed unto these marks hereafter described There standeth a house upon the sea-side which is a Salt-kettle and also a Castle somewhat further in within the land which doth shew it selfe high enough bring them one in the other and then they shall stand somewhat more n. then w. from you and run in so right with them and so you shall run in amidst the channell between both being come within edge up behind the Island and ankor there in five or six fathom Staples About this Island there run also many more divers little Rivers into the land but they fall most dry at low water From the the Cocket Island to the Staples the Course is n. n. w. eight or nine leagues The Staples that are high Islands rocks right to the e. wards of Bambrough lying at least three leagues from the land n. e. into sea a little to the n. wards of them lyeth the Holy Island Holy Island to the s wards or the w. wards of the Holy Island is a Bay where you may lye landlockt almost for all winds against the Castle is the best road you may also run in there from the s wards through betwixt the Staples and the maine land Betwixt the Staples and the Holy Island lye two
sunken rocks which at low water come very near Goldstone Plough even within the water the westermost towards the Holy Island is called the gold stone the eastermost by the Staples is called the Plough For to avoid them when you will saile through betwixt the Staples and the Holy Island whether you come from the s wards or the n. wards then bring the steeple of Toustenbrough over the Castle of Bambrou and keep them so standing then you shall run through betwixt them both this channel lyeth so through n. e. and s w. From the outermost end of the Staples to S. Abbens head the Course is n. w. seven or eight leagues From Holy Island to S. Abbens head it is n. n. w. seven or eight leagues S.

The Second Demonstration In which The Coasts of England are set forth between Cromer and Orkney THe land lyeth from Cromer to Bornum first w. n. w. and w. and by n. and then west and west and by s 9. or 10. leagues From Cromer to Blakeney it is three or four leagues Blakeney At Blakeney standeth a high steeple which you may see along farre over the Land when it cometh to the little steeple then you have the first buy of the channell which lyeth at the s end of the Pole which is a sand at the w. side of the Channell of Blakeney go from the first buy to the other and along by them untill you come within the Haven this is a Tide-Haven where men doe lye dry at low water Four leagues to the westwards of Blakeney lyeth Wels Pol and Pyper betwixt them both lyeth the foresaid showld called the Poll and Pyper there it is showld a far off at Sea At the west end of this showld goeth in the Deep of Wels the beakons that you must saile in along by stand all along by the Pyper When Hoebrom standeth east-south-west from you then you are to the westwards of the Pyper thwart of it is good road in six fathom Wells Wels lyeth then southeast from you and the trees stand then also against the steeple then you may saile open into the Haven of Wells along by the foresaid beakons Betwixt Wels and Bornum lieth a bank you may ride under it in five or six fathom at halfe flood there is upon it no more then two fathom water He that will saile into Bornum Bornum must goe in at high water and he must bring the steeple against the Black-house and saile so in by the beakons leaving them on the larboard side These are all Tyde-havens From Bornum to Chappell the course is west-south-west two leagues Chappell to the northwards of it lyeth the Sonck which is a sand that falleth dry at low water You may saile about it on both sides of the Sonck unto Lin. The Sonck For to saile into the Easter channel of Lyn Easter channell of Lyn. then saile about to the eastwards of the Sonck and bring the wood of trees over the point of Sitsein or Suytson and Chappell east from you then goe in s e. and by s and you shall find the first buye then in s and by w. and s s w. and by little and little more westerly untill you come about the point there the buyes and beakons shall shew you the way When you come about the point then you may run through the sands into the northern channell and saile out againe by the same into sea by the buyes and marks that are thereof This norther channell lyeth into sea n. e. and n. e. and by east and is very well buyed and beakoned You may also saile into the westwards of the Sonck Wester channell of Lyn. to wit south and by east in all along by it and so run to the first buye and then from the buye along by the beakons unto Lyn before the Towne When you come from the eastwards you may well run through within the Sonck along by the land close along by Chappell and in south and by west unto the foresaid first buye For to saile from Cromer or Blakeney Boston deep to Boston deep you must goe on west and by north untill you come by the land betwixt the Hommor and Lagernesse From the Sonck lyeth a long bank called the Flats The Flats north into sea a league which at low water falleth dry at divers places You run with the foresaid west and by North Course when you are by Cromer or Blakeney a little without the land along without or to the northwards of this bank at high water you may well goe over it the ground on the east side goeth up flat and plaine run boldly to it without fear untill you come in four or three fathom he that useth his lead can take no hurt of it but on the inner side that is on the west side it is very steep so soon as you be over the showldest you shall get suddenly deep water and good sand ground under it or within it it is good riding for easterly winds For to saile into Bostom deep For to sail into Boston deep through within the Knock or Elleknock you must keep the sounding of the shoare in foure or five fathom so long untill that the poynt of Lagarnes be west-north-west from you Betwixt the shoare and Elleknock remaineth at low water five fathom in the middest of the channell Elleknock but Elleknock falleth dry at low water When that Lagernesse is west-northwest frrom you then goe on south-east through betwixt Elleknock and the showld which shooteth off from the shoar to the westwards Lagernesse untill that you get againe depth of six or seaven fathom in this going over remaineth at low water no more then two fathom but it floweth there about three fathom up and downe Being over it Longsand then goe on south-west along betwixt Longsand and the showld which lyeth off from the shoare there it is deep betwixt them both nine and ten fathom you may sound both sides as well the showld which lyeth off from the Land as Longsand in five fathom but the flat is somewhat steeper then Longsand For to saile without Elleknock into Bostons deep coming as is before said to the west land Ingoldmils you must look out for the two steeples of Ingoldmils standing somwhat to the northwards of Lagernesse bring them one in the other and then they shall stand about north-north-west from you keep them one in the other and goe on south-east untill that the trees upon the poynt by west Lagernesse come without the poynt of Lagernesse and then you run through betwixt Elleknock and Dogshead that is a showld without Elleknock when these aforesaid trees come a handspikes length past Dogs head or to the eastwards of the poynt of Lagernesse then goe on south-west and then you run right into the deep betwixt Elleknock and Longsand and so you shall find betwixt Elleknock and the poynt of Longsand five fathom depth being past Elleknock it will be eight nine and ten fathom deep If you will saile out of the sea into Boston deep and not along by the Land as is before said then bring the foresaid trees a handspikes length without the
