It is outside the scope of FOI/2026/09 and its internal review, which concerned Bute series including D153 and D205 and the 1877 transaction. It is also separate from my enquiry of 27 September and follow-up of 10 October 2026 on D153/1–8. PLEASE NOTE: DUPLICATE PLACE AND FARM NAMES IN GLAMORGAN Glamorgan has two parishes called Llandough, and each had a farm called Great House. IN SCOPE: Llandough-juxta-Penarth (Llandough near Penarth and Cardiff), hundred of Dinas Powys. Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr stood beside St Dochdwy's church, approx. ST 168 733. OUT OF SCOPE: Llandough-juxta-Cowbridge (Llandough near Cowbridge), and the Great Houses at nearby Llandow and Aberthin. For example, "Manors of Llandough and St Mary Church" (Penrice and Margam Estate Records, 1619–1704) appears to be the Cowbridge Llandough; please confirm if you know otherwise. Please do not send or rely on records for the Cowbridge-area places. If an entry says only "Llandough" or "Great House" and the parish cannot be told, please say so rather than assume. Part 1 — S7, Survey of the lands of William Herbert, kt, dec., in the lordships or manors of Dinas Powys, Cogan, Llandough and others, January 1610. Please tell me: (a) Whether S7 contains an entry for Great House or any holding in Llandough-juxta-Penarth, and the folio. (b) The name of the holder or tenant recorded, the tenure (freehold, copyhold, leasehold) and any rent or acreage given. (c) Whether S7 is digitised or filmed, and the cost of a copy of only those folios. Part 2 — Cardiff MSS on Microfilm (CARDMFS), filmed 1980–1984. Glamorgan Archives (ref 2026/4097b) identified Bute X.6(12), abstracts of payments and receipts by the Bute trustees, 1877 (copy), at Cardiff Library. Please tell me: (a) Whether Bute X.6(12), or any Bute X.6 item, is on the CARDMFS microfilm, and the reel and frame reference. (b) If so, how I can obtain a copy of the entries relating to Llandough-juxta-Penarth or Daniel Thomas, and the cost. Part 3 — A lease of Great House said to date from 1667. The family's account (not yet supported by a document) is that the Williams family took Great House, Llandough-juxta-Penarth, in 1667 on a lease for 999 years. Great House is described in published sources as a freehold of the Vaughan family from the 16th to the late 18th century, after which it came to the Bute estate. Please tell me whether the Bute Estate Records, including the Herbert and Windsor family papers within them, or any other NLW collection, hold: (a) Any lease, counterpart lease, assignment or enrolment, c.1660–1675, of Great House or any messuage in Llandough-juxta-Penarth, to any person named Williams, or for a term of 999 years (or any other long term). (b) Any later deed, abstract of title, schedule or rental that recites or refers to a lease of Great House for 999 years or for a long term. (c) The conveyance or other instrument by which the Bute estate (or the Windsor family before it) acquired Great House from the Vaughan family or its heirs, with its date and reference, and whether it recites any lease or tenancy then outstanding. (d) Any Vaughan of Llandough family papers, and where they are held if not at NLW. If you consider any of this reasonably accessible by other means under section 21, please say exactly where and how.
