Dear  Sion Buckler,

Thank you for contacting The National Archives of the United Kingdom.

We may hold records related to your enquiry. The map you mention is listed in our catalogue.

I have searched our catalogue  for records using Glamorgan XLVII as search terms. You can view the results of the search here and try some similar searches yourself.

Search results: (Glamorgan AND XLVII) AND 6 | The National Archives 

Penarth field books ….
 Search results: penarth | The National Archives 

Further advice about using Valuation Office records can be found here….
 Land use, value and ownership: Valuation Office Survey 1910-1915 - The National Archives 

Records are represented in our online catalogue by a title, a reference and a brief description. When you search our catalogue using keywords you are searching across these titles and descriptions, rather than the contents of the records themselves.

By clicking on any search result, you can see whether the record is available online or if you need to visit us to view the original. You can also request copies of records from their catalogue description page.

If the record is held by another archive, you will need to contact them directly to find out how you can access it.

You can also watch this video  for more advice on using our online catalogue.

You are welcome to visit us  to continue your research here in person, where access to our records is free of charge. Before you visit, please check our website for information regarding our opening hours  and ID requirements , and videos with tips on how to handle and photograph original documents .

If you are unable to visit, or would like someone to pursue this research on your behalf, please see the available paid search options  on our website.

Yours sincerely,

Michael McGrady

Freedom of Information Team,

This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. It is a
location request only. I am not asking for a copy of the plan, a
screen-room appointment, or production of the item until the location
and physical-check status are confirmed.

Context. Glamorgan Archives, in reply 2026/4097b of 30 September 2026,
identified Ordnance Survey sheet Glamorgan XLVII.6 as the sheet
relevant to Great House Farm / Ty Mawr, Llandough-juxta-Penarth, and
directed me to the Valuation Office Survey 1910-1915 maps held by The
National Archives.

Please state, for the Valuation Office field book, plan, and index
covering that sheet for the parish of Llandough
(Llandough-juxta-Penarth, Glamorgan):

1. The series, piece, and item references (including any IR 58, IR
121, IR 124, IR 125, IR 126, IR 127, IR 128 or successor reference
that applies).
2. The accession, box, shelf, or other store location used by your staff.
3. The Discovery catalogue identifier.
4. Whether a member of staff has physically checked that the item is
in that location: yes, no, or not answered. If yes, who checked it and
on what date, and which store.
5. Whether the item is open, closed, or retained by another
department, and if closed the series and the FOI route for a closed
record.
6. The systems searched, and whether a physical file or plan was
retrieved rather than a catalogue-only search.

I am not asking you to interpret ownership or to comment on any legal
proceedings. Please treat a “not held” answer as incomplete unless you
name the systems searched and whether a physical item was retrieved.

Please quote this email as the request and give the statutory deadline.
