Cedwyn Estate

The main record of Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough: hundreds of pages of documents, dates and sources, each page with its own change log. Start here if you are new.

The history told in order, from the Williams family line through the farm's later years to the 1988 demolition, one slide at a time.

A full-screen map of the farm land: Parcel A and Parcel B coloured by holder on the 1878, 1900, 1920 and 1947 Ordnance Survey sheets, then the modern aerial view. Reconstructed outlines are hatched.

Two records set side by side on a zoomable board: what was done and written on one side, the documented family facts on the other.

Security clearance: every institution starts at 500 of 1000 and gains or loses points only on dated emails and letters; cleared at 900. Case files behind the menu.

Five key documents read closely, sentence by sentence, with a score for how each sentence holds up against the record.

The original documents in one list: deeds, letters, maps and registers, each dated and linked to where it is held.

Web pages, images and transcripts saved exactly as they were found, so the record does not change if a page is taken down.

A public archive of the letters and emails exchanged with public bodies, in date order.

Every public body that has been written to: what was asked, when, and what came back.

Each records request shown on a dartboard, scored by how close the answer came to what was asked for.

Freedom of information questions and the answers that came back, grouped by topic.
