KNIGHTSBRIDGE, (Middlesex) the first village from London in the great western road, lies in the ps. of St. Margaret's
Westminster, and St. George by Hanover-Square, and has a chapel, which is nevertheless independent. At the entrance of it
from London stands that noble Infirmary for sick and wounded, called St. George's-Hospital, erected and maintained by the
contributions of our nobility and gentry, of whom there are not less than 300 governors, who have the honour of the Pr. of
Wales for their president. In the centre of this village, there is a fabrick lately erected by Mr. Will. Spinnage and
company, where is carried on one of the most considerable mfs. in England for painting floor-cloths, &c.
