Good\ndrills Sir. What an honour. I know you and the Council serve as volunteers,\nand I am grateful for the time.\n\nLet me set out plainly what I am asking of the Council, which is narrow.\nIf you'll allow me?\n\nI am not asking your Council to revisit Mr Egan's answer of 14 June 2026.\nHe explained that the minute books from 1982 onwards were deposited with\nGlamorgan Archives in 2002, and I am pursuing those there.\n\nWhat I am asking about is what that answer did not cover. Llandough\nCommunity Council is a public authority under Schedule 1, Part II,\nparagraph 7(b) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000. The Act applies to\nthe recorded information set out below generally; the Environmental\nInformation Regulations 2004 apply in addition to any part of it that is\nenvironmental information.\n\nPART ONE — REQUEST FOR RECORDED INFORMATION\n\n1. Whether the Council holds any recorded information created after the\n2002 deposit — minutes, correspondence, reports, emails, photographs or\nfiles of any kind — concerning Great House Farm (Ty Mawr) / Church View\nClose, the village green in front of St Dochdwy's including registered\ngreen VG 41, or the roadside verge by the churchyard wall.\n\n2. Whether the Council holds any photographs, postcards or images of the\nfarm, the barn, the green or the church surroundings, of any date.\n\n3. Whether the Council holds any recorded information showing what, if\nanything, transferred to it from Penarth Town Council at the 1982\nreorganisation, and any recorded information identifying where the pre-1982\nLlandough community records were deposited.\n\nIf the answer to any of these is that no such information is held, I would\nbe content with a short statement to that effect — but I do need it stated.\nSection 1(1)(a) of the Act requires the Council to confirm or deny whether\nthe information is held.\n\nSection 10 (and regulation 5 of the EIR) allows twenty working days from\nreceipt, which on my request of 20 September 2026 I calculate as 16 October\n2026.\n\nIf the Council is refusing, section 17 (and regulation 14) requires a\nwritten refusal notice identifying the exemption or exception relied on;\nsection 17(7) requires the Council to give particulars of any complaints\nprocedure it operates, or to state that it has none, and to notify me of my\nright to apply to the Information Commissioner; and regulation 11 gives a\nright to an internal review of any refusal under the EIR.\n\n\"We have nothing more to add\" does not meet those requirements. If the\nperiod passes without a compliant response I will have no option but to\ncomplain to the Information Commissioner.\n\nPART TWO — MATTERS FOR THE COUNCIL'S DISCRETION\n\nThese are not part of the request above and carry no deadline. They are\nsimply things I would be grateful for.\n\nA. I am not asking for the name or contact details of any individual. I am\nasking whether the Council would be willing to pass my details to any\nformer member, former clerk or long-standing resident who might remember\nthe village between the 1950s and the 1990s, leaving it entirely to them\nwhether to contact me. I appreciate the Council may have data protection or\nadministrative reasons for declining, and I would not press it.\n\nB. Whether the Council would be willing to table this correspondence at a\nmeeting and minute it. I am content for it to be tabled in full.\n\nC. Whether the Council would consider, in due course, whether an\ninterpretation board or a plaque near the green would be appropriate. The\nexcavation on the land beneath Church View Close recorded 1,026 burials,\ndescribed in the published report as by far the largest early medieval\nburial population so far recovered from Wales, above a Roman villa and an\nIron Age roundhouse. That history belongs to Llandough as much as to my\nfamily, and there is nothing on the ground that records it. I would be glad\nto give the Council or the community a short talk on the documentary\nrecord, without charge, if that would be useful.\n\nI should be grateful for a response to items 1 to 3 by 16 October 2026.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/ Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nProvenance: this text is reproduced in the public GHF-E170 page as transcribed from the request quoted in the 28 September correspondence.

Egan, signed as Clerk to Llandough Community Council\nTimestamp: not stated in the published transcription\n\nDear Mr Buckler,\r\n\r\nThank you for your email of  21 September 2026 making a request for \r\ninformation.\r\n\r\nWe are treating your correspondence as a request for information under \r\nthe Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the act).\r\n\r\nUnder the provisions of the act and as defined by \"The Freedom of \r\nInformation and Data Protection (Appropriate Limit and Fees) Regulations \r\n2004\" (the regulations) , an authority is not obliged to comply with a \r\nrequest for information if the authority estimates that the cost of \r\ncomplying with the request would exceed the \"appropriate limit\".  This \r\nappropriate limit is set by the regulations at £450 for our type of \r\nauthority.\r\n\r\nIn the regulations our staff time is valued at £25 per hour.  This has \r\nthe effect of imposing a time limit of 18 hours of staff time for \r\nactivities specified in the regulations.\r\n\r\n  The regulations make the following activities by an authority countable \r\ntowards the cost limit.\r\n\r\n  \t* determining whether it holds the information,\r\n\r\n  \t* locating the information, or a document which may contain the \r\ninformation,\r\n\r\n  \t* retrieving the information, or a document which may contain the \r\ninformation, and\r\n\r\n  \t* extracting the information from a document containing it.\r\n\r\n  We have estimated the time and therefore costs as provided by the \r\nregulations, and in doing so have taken into account the above \r\nactivities.\r\n\r\n  We estimate that this work will take in excess of 18 hours of effort by \r\nour staff. As we have a significant amount of documents on file from the \r\nperiod 2002-2016 where minutes are in documents rather than published on \r\nthe website or in archives.\r\n\r\n  We estimate this will exceed the limit provided for by the regulations \r\nand therefore your request is refused on the grounds provided for under \r\nsection 12 of the act.\r\n\r\nOur estimate of time is based on the requirement to search all minutes \r\nof the council and its committees for a period of 14 years. It is \r\nestimated that it will take about 20 minutes to read each set of minutes \r\nof which there are estimated to 224 sets of minutes. It is considered \r\nthat this is likely to take about 10 minutes to assess each set of \r\nminutes a total of over 2240 minutes which equates to 37 hours.\r\n\r\n  We may may be able to provide some information if you are able to \r\nreduce or refine your request to bring the cost of compliance under the \r\nregulations limit.  We suggest that you could limit the time frame of \r\nminutes that we would need to look through. For example 2002-2006.\r\n\r\n  Please contact us if you would like to refine your request.\r\n\r\n  If you are not satisfied with this response or you wish to complain \r\nabout any aspect of the handling of your request, then you should \r\ncontact us in the first instance and we will undertake an internal \r\nreview.\r\n\r\n  If after the internal review you wish to complain further then you can \r\ncomplain to the Information Commissioners Office http://www.ico.gov.uk \r\n[1] and request a decision notice.\r\n\r\nThe other matters you include in your email will be considered at the \r\nOctober meeting of the council and I will let you have the views of the \r\ncouncil after the meeting.\n\nKind regards,\n\nPaul R.

The source text itself has no original message header. A home postal address and personal email address are withheld from this public copy.\n\nDear Mr Egan,\n\nThank you for your email of 11 October 2026. It contains several separate matters, so I have answered each under its own number. Please respond to each separately. Nothing below withdraws or narrows my original request of 21 September, and attendance at a meeting is not a condition of my information rights.\n\nI am not asking the Council to decide the family's title dispute or to make findings about any individual, and I am not alleging wrongdoing by you. I ask that records be identified, searched for and disclosed, and that the matters in section 4 be considered.\n\n1. INTERNAL REVIEW OF THE 11 OCTOBER REFUSAL (FOIA s.12; EIR reg. 11)\n\nPlease treat this as a formal request for the internal review you offered, of the section 12 refusal of my request of 21 September. To the extent any information is environmental, please also treat it as representations under regulation 11 of the EIR 2004.\n\nMy request had three categories: (a) records created after the 2002 deposit concerning Great House Farm / Tý Mawr, Church View Close, the village green (including VG 41) or the roadside verge by the churchyard wall; (b) photographs, postcards or images of the farm, barn, green or church surroundings, of any date; (c) records showing what, if anything, transferred from Penarth Town Council at the 1982 reorganisation, and where pre-1982 records were deposited. I ask the reviewer to address:\n\n(i) Scope. The estimate covers only the reading of 224 sets of minutes for 2002-2016. Please explain why that is necessary and sufficient for each category, particularly (b) and (c), and what other searches were considered: correspondence and email files, photograph collections, transfer or deposit records, any index or electronic copy of the minutes, and sampling.\n\n(ii) Arithmetic. The letter gives 20 minutes to read plus 10 minutes to assess each set, which is 30 minutes x 224 = 6,720 minutes (112 hours), but states 2,240 minutes (37 hours), which is 10 minutes x 224. Please confirm which calculation was used and which activities under regulation 4 of the Fees Regulations it includes. I accept the limit is exceeded on either figure.\n\n(iii) Section 12(2). Please say whether the cost of determining whether the information is held would itself exceed the limit, or whether the estimate concerns locating and extracting information once its existence is established.\n\n(iv) EIR. The green, verge, trees, woodland and land boundaries are likely to be environmental information. Please say which parts were assessed under the EIR. The FOIA cost limit is not an EIR refusal ground; if regulation 12(4)(b) is relied on, please give the reasons, the public interest assessment and the presumption in favour of disclosure.\n\n(v) Advice and assistance (s.16 FOIA; reg. 9 EIR). Limiting the minutes to 2002-2006 does not address (b) or (c). Please say whether any part can be answered within the limit and suggest a practical refinement.\n\n(vi) Without prejudice to the review: if the refusal is maintained, please treat parts (b) and (c) alone as a refined request, assessed under the correct regime, so that no time is lost.\n\nPlease have the review carried out by someone who took no part in the original decision, with the outcome and reasons in writing. I would be grateful for the outcome within 20 working days.\n\n2. NEW REQUEST FOR RECORDED INFORMATION (FOIA and, where environmental, EIR)\n\nThis is a separate request, not a refinement of the one under review. Please search for Council-held or controlled minutes, agendas, reports, correspondence, complaints, notes or referrals:\n\n(i) from approximately 1986 to 1990 concerning Great House Farm / Tý Mawr, its occupation, title or tenure, development or demolition, including any concerns raised by my late father, William \"Billy\" Buckler, or other family members. I have family information that my father raised concerns at Council meetings around 1988, described within the family as fraud-related. I cannot verify whether he did, what was said or what followed, and I do not present it as established fact. I ask whether the Council's records can establish what, if anything, was reported, how it was handled, and whether it was referred to any other body;\n\n(ii) of any date concerning the village green, roadside verge, trees and adjoining woodland, and any reported extension of Church View Close gardens beyond their boundaries into the woodland, including correspondence with the charity that holds the woodland, residents or other authorities;\n\n(iii) concerning the 2002 deposit: please confirm whether the Council retains or controls any copies of the minutes deposited with Glamorgan Archives, and identify any record of that transfer, its date, and any archival reference or destination known to the Council. I am separately pursuing the deposited volumes with Glamorgan Archives.\n\nI assert a proprietary interest in Parcel A and the adjoining woodland, but I do not ask the Council to adjudicate title. If nothing is held after appropriate searches, please say so. If anything is withheld, please identify the statutory basis and reasons.\n\n3. SUBJECT ACCESS REQUEST (Article 15 UK GDPR; Data Protection Act 2018)\n\nPlease provide a copy of my personal data held by the Council, including data in minutes, correspondence, reports, photographs or other records (including retained historical records) concerning my presence at Great House Farm as a child, the events surrounding the family's removal and the 1988 demolition, and any later record that identifies or refers to me. An electronic copy, ordinarily without charge, is fine. If you reasonably need identity evidence, please tell me promptly what is required. I understand the one-month period under Article 12(3) runs from receipt of this request, or of any identity evidence reasonably requested. This section concerns only my personal data; my father's reported statements and the wider records are dealt with in section 2.\n\n4. THE OCTOBER MEETING\n\nYour email says my \"other matters\" will be considered at the October meeting. Please confirm:\n- the purpose of that statement, and whether I am invited to attend;\n- the date, time and venue, public attendance arrangements and any remote option;\n- the agenda, item numbers and papers, as soon as available;\n- whether my correspondence will be circulated to councillors, how decisions and any actions will be minuted, and how I can obtain the minutes or formal outcome;\n- how I may make representations as a member of the public, including any procedure, deadline and speaking limit.\nI have not yet decided whether to attend.\n\nI ask that the following be placed on the agenda, as issues for clarification and not as findings:\n\n(a) From my 21 September email: whether the Council will pass my contact details to any former member, former clerk or long-standing resident who may wish to contact me (entirely at their choice); table and minute my correspondence in full; and accept my offer of a short talk, without charge, on the documentary record.\n\n(b) The green south of the former farmhouse: what the Council understands its present role to be (owner, manager, custodian or otherwise), and the recorded instrument, plan or Council decision on which that understanding rests. The family's research raises a question whether this land was distinct from the agricultural parcel addressed in the 1955 possession proceedings. I ask the Council to check its own records, not to decide that question.\n\n(c) The woodland behind the houses: I understand the charity responsible for it has raised concerns that some adjoining gardens extend beyond their boundaries. I cannot verify that. Please establish the charity's precise account, whether the Council holds relevant plans or correspondence, and refer any substantiated concern to the appropriate landowner or authority. I do not ask for findings about individual residents without evidence.\n\n(d) The 1989 planning record: the copy available to me refers to annexes containing representations from historic societies concerning Great House Farm, which appear to be absent. Please consider whether the Council holds copies and whether it will ask the planning authority or relevant archive to locate the complete papers. This matters to understanding what was put before the decision-makers following the demolition.\n\n(e) The historic site today: a site visit and, in due course, the merits of an interpretation board or plaque addressing the farm, the archaeological discoveries (the excavation beneath Church View Close recorded 1,026 burials, above a Roman villa and an Iron Age roundhouse) and the history of the green.\n\nThe same distinction applies to my father's reported concerns and to my own claim: they are matters requiring clarification, not established findings. If any proposed action is outside the Community Council's powers, please identify the appropriate body.\n\n5. CHARGES AND THE CLERK'S POSITION\n\nI do not authorise paid searches or accept any charge, and ask that no cost chargeable to me be incurred without my prior written agreement.

The source text itself has no original message header. A home postal address and personal email address are withheld from this public copy.\n\nDear Mr Egan,\n\nThank you for your email of 11 October 2026. I write about matters of serious public interest to the family and to Llandough's history, and I ask the Council to treat this correspondence with priority and to give it its full cooperation. The email contains six separate matters. Please respond to each under its own number. Nothing below withdraws, narrows or replaces my original request of 21 September, and attendance at a meeting is not a condition of my information rights.\n\nI am not asking the Council to adjudicate the family's title dispute or to make findings about any individual, and I am not alleging wrongdoing by you. I am asking the Council to account accurately for its own records, knowledge, decisions and referrals, and to distinguish clearly between what its primary records establish, what is merely recorded as said, and what remains uncertain. If a search shows that nothing was recorded or referred, I ask that the Council say so plainly, because that is itself important.\n\n1. PRESERVATION OF RECORDS\n\nBecause these requests concern historic records that may be time-sensitive for other proceedings and bodies, please:\n(a) confirm in writing, within 5 working days, that all potentially relevant records have been preserved and that any scheduled disposal, destruction or retention-schedule review affecting them is suspended. This covers paper and electronic minutes, agendas, correspondence, emails, clerk's notes, plans, photographs, files and archive-transfer or deposit paperwork, and any such material held on the Council's behalf by a current or former councillor, clerk or officer, including at home;\n(b) ask each current councillor, and, where practicable, the Council's former clerks and members, whether they hold any such material, and include whatever is found in the searches below.\nI raise this as a precaution. For completeness, section 77 FOIA and regulation 19 of the EIR make it an offence to alter, conceal or destroy records with intent to prevent their disclosure once a request has been made.\n\n2. INTERNAL REVIEW OF THE 11 OCTOBER REFUSAL (FOIA s.12; EIR reg. 11)\n\nPlease treat this as a formal request for the internal review you offered, of the section 12 refusal of my request of 21 September. To the extent any information is environmental, please also treat it as representations under regulation 11 of the EIR 2004.\n\nMy request had three categories: (a) records created after the 2002 deposit concerning Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Church View Close, the village green (including VG 41) or the roadside verge by the churchyard wall; (b) photographs, postcards or images of the farm, barn, green or church surroundings, of any date; (c) records showing what, if anything, transferred from Penarth Town Council at the 1982 reorganisation, and where pre-1982 records were deposited. I ask the reviewer to address:\n\n(i) Scope. The estimate covers only the reading of 224 sets of minutes for 2002-2016. Please explain why that is necessary and sufficient for each category, particularly (b) and (c), and what other searches were considered: correspondence and email files, photograph collections, transfer or deposit records, any index, catalogue, minute heading or electronic copy of the minutes, targeted searches on the place names, former names and dates in my request, and sampling.\n\n(ii) Arithmetic. The letter gives 20 minutes to read plus 10 minutes to assess each set, which is 30 minutes x 224 = 6,720 minutes (112 hours), but states 2,240 minutes (37 hours), which is 10 minutes x 224. The figures do not reconcile. Please confirm which calculation was used and which activities under regulation 4 of the Fees Regulations it includes. I accept the limit is exceeded on either figure, so I do not rely on this point alone.\n\n(iii) Section 12(2). Please say whether the cost of determining whether the information is held would itself exceed the limit, or whether the estimate concerns locating and extracting information once its existence is established. Section 1(1)(a) duty to confirm or deny is preserved unless that cost alone exceeds the limit.\n\n(iv) EIR. The green, verge, trees, woodland and land boundaries are likely to be environmental information. Please say which parts were assessed under the EIR. The FOIA cost limit is not an EIR refusal ground; if regulation 12(4)(b) is relied on, please state it expressly with reasons and carry out the public interest assessment, including the presumption in favour of disclosure.\n\n(v) Advice and assistance (s.16 FOIA; reg. 9 EIR). Limiting the minutes to 2002-2006 does not address categories (b) or (c). Please say whether any part can be answered within the limit and advise a practical refinement.\n\n(vi) Without prejudice to the review: if the refusal is maintained, please treat categories (b) and (c) alone as a refined request, assessed under the correct regime, so that no time is lost.\n\nPlease acknowledge this request, identify who will conduct the review (someone who took no part in the original decision), and give the anticipated date. I would be grateful for the outcome and reasons in writing within 20 working days.\n\n3. NEW REQUEST FOR RECORDED INFORMATION (FOIA and, where environmental, EIR)\n\nThis is a separate request, not a refinement of the one under review. Please search for Council-held or controlled minutes, agendas, reports, correspondence, complaints, notes, representations or referrals:\n\n(i) from 1 January 1986 to 31 December 1990 concerning Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, its occupation, title or tenure, development, removal of the occupants or demolition, including communications with the Vale of Glamorgan Council, planning authorities, developers, solicitors, landowners, police, heritage bodies or other public authorities. This includes any concerns raised by my late father, William \"Billy\" Buckler, or other family members. I have family information that my father raised concerns at Council meetings around 1988, described within the family as fraud-related. I cannot verify whether he did, what was said or what followed, and I do not present it as established fact. I ask whether the Council's records establish what, if anything, was reported, how it was handled, whether it was referred to any other body, and what response followed. References to fraud identify a subject for the search; they are not a claim that a record of fraud exists;\n\n(ii) planning records, plans, annexes, correspondence and supporting documents relating to application 89/01396/OUT (as I understand the reference) and any related consideration of the redevelopment. The copy available to me refers to annexes containing representations from historic societies concerning Great House Farm, which appear to be absent. Please confirm whether the Council holds them and, if not, whether its records identify another custodian or archive;\n\n(iii) of any date concerning the village green, roadside verge, trees and adjoining woodland: history, status, boundaries, maintenance, planting, public use, and any reported extension of Church View Close gardens beyond their boundaries into the woodland, including correspondence with the charity that holds the woodland, residents, the Vale of Glamorgan Council or other authorities. I am aware the official VG 41 registration file is understood to be held by the Vale of Glamorgan Council; I ask only for the Council's own copies, correspondence, representations and referrals;\n\n(iv) concerning the 2002 deposit: please confirm whether the Council retains or controls any copies of the minutes deposited with Glamorgan Archives, and identify any record of that transfer, its date, and any archival reference or destination known to the Council. I am separately pursuing the deposited volumes with Glamorgan Archives.\n\nI assert a proprietary interest in Parcel A and the adjoining woodland, but I do not ask the Council to adjudicate title. If any part is thought too broad, please identify that part and say what narrower search is practicable, rather than refusing the whole. If nothing is held after appropriate searches, please say so and identify any known transfer or deposit location. If anything is withheld, please identify the statutory basis and reasons. I understand the 20-working-day period under section 10 FOIA and regulation 5 EIR runs from receipt of this email.\n\n4. SUBJECT ACCESS REQUEST (Article 15 UK GDPR; Data Protection Act 2018)\n\nPlease provide a copy of my personal data held by the Council, including data in minutes, correspondence, reports, photographs or other records (including retained historical records) concerning my presence at Great House Farm as a child, the events surrounding the family's removal and the 1988 demolition, and any later record that identifies or refers to me. An electronic copy, ordinarily without charge, is fine. Please acknowledge this as a subject access request. If you reasonably need identity evidence, please tell me promptly what is required. I understand the one-month period under Article 12(3) runs from receipt of this request, or of any identity evidence reasonably requested. This section concerns only my personal data; my father's reported statements and the wider records are dealt with in section 3.\n\n5. THE OCTOBER MEETING\n\nYour email says my \"other matters\" will be considered at the October meeting. You gave no date, time, venue or agenda. Please confirm within 5 working days:\n- whether the meeting has already taken place and, if so, its date, the agenda and papers, the minute or other record of consideration, and any decision or action;\n- if it has not, the date, time, venue, public attendance arrangements and any remote option, and the draft or published agenda showing which of my matters are scheduled and under which item numbers;\n- whether I am invited to attend (I have not yet decided whether to) and how a member of the public may make representations on relevant business, including any procedure, deadline and speaking limit;\n- that this entire email, and my earlier correspondence, will be circulated to all councillors, how decisions and actions will be minuted, and how I can obtain the minutes or formal outcome.\n\nI ask that the following be placed on the agenda, as issues for clarification and not as findings:\n\n(a) From my 21 September email: whether the Council will pass my contact details to any former member, former clerk or long-standing resident who may wish to contact me (entirely at their choice, and with no disclosure of their details to me without consent); table and minute my correspondence in full; and accept my offer of a short talk, without charge, on the documentary record.\n\n(b) The green south of the former farmhouse: what the Council understands its present role to be (owner, manager, custodian or otherwise), and the recorded instrument, plan or Council decision on which that understanding rests. The family's research raises a question whether this land was distinct from the agricultural parcel addressed in the 1955 possession proceedings. I ask the Council to check its own records, not to decide that question.\n\n(c) The woodland behind the houses: I understand the charity responsible for it has raised concerns that some adjoining gardens extend beyond their boundaries. I cannot verify that. Please establish the charity's precise account, whether the Council holds relevant plans or correspondence, and refer any substantiated concern to the appropriate landowner or authority. I do not ask for findings about individual residents without evidence.\n\n(d) The 1989 planning record and the missing annexes (see 3(ii)): whether the Council holds copies and whether it will ask the planning authority or relevant archive to locate the complete papers. This matters to understanding what was put before the decision-makers following the demolition.\n\n(e) My father's reported 1980s concerns (see 3(i)): that the Council consider what its own records show and, if they show nothing, say so.\n\n(f) The historic site today: a site visit and, in due course, the merits of an interpretation board or plaque addressing the farm, the archaeological discoveries (the excavation beneath Church View Close recorded 1,026 burials, above a Roman villa and an Iron Age roundhouse) and the history of the green.\n\nIf any proposed action is outside the Community Council's powers, please identify the appropriate body.\n\n6. CHARGES AND THE CLERK'S POSITION\n\nI do not authorise paid searches or accept any charge, and ask that no cost chargeable to me be incurred without my prior written agreement. If the Council offers to comply for a fee (FOIA s.13) or proposes a charge for environmental information, please send an itemised quotation for consideration only (not acceptance): the legal basis, the work proposed, hours and hourly rate, the total, whether the work can be staged (for example, categories 2(b) and 2(c) first), any published EIR charging schedule, payment methods, payee, payment reference and deadline.\n\nYour 11 October email is signed as Clerk, and I understood from public information that you retired from that post in June 2026. I treat that as unverified. Please confirm: (a) whether you are currently Clerk, or acting or locum, and since when; (b) who is the Council's Proper Officer and who has custody of its records; (c) whether the 11 October decision was yours personally or the Council's; (d) whether any handover or inventory of records was made on a change of clerk; and (e) who will conduct the internal review.\n\nI would prefer to resolve all of this cooperatively and with the Council's full help. If the matters above are not dealt with properly, I will have to consider a complaint to the Information Commissioner (including on advice and assistance, the duty to confirm or deny and the EIR handling) and to the Public Services Ombudsman for Wales. I would rather not need to. Please acknowledge receipt of this email and each numbered part within 5 working days, and reply by email and by post to [… personal postal address withheld in public copy].\n\nThank you for your time and courtesy.\n\nRegards,\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber / Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n[… personal postal address withheld in public copy]\n"},{"id":"wb-a18018fd","subject":"Llandough Community Council family reply source status 0626 utc","name":"2026-10-14 - Llandough Community Council family reply - source status - 0626 UTC - EN - V1.0.0.00.txt","date":"2026-10-14","dateStatus":"filename-date-unverified","category":"Council and local authority correspondence","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"DATRO Wayback public text archive","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/text/2026-10-14%20-%20Llandough%20Community%20Council%20family%20reply%20-%20source%20status%20-%200626%20UTC%20-%20EN%20-%20V1.0.0.00.txt","threadSlug":"llandough-community-council-family-reply-source-status-0626-utc","scopeTopics":["email","ghf","llandough","council"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["email","ghf","llandough","council"],"sourcePath":"text/2026-10-14 - Llandough Community Council family reply - source status - 0626 UTC - EN - V1.0.0.00.txt","classificationNote":"Indexed from the public Wayback text catalogue by case-related filename and/or existing public catalogue tags.

It contains several separate matters, so I have answered each under its own number. Please respond to each separately. Nothing below withdraws or narrows my original request of 21 September, and attendance at a meeting is not a condition of my information rights.\n\nI am not asking the Council to decide the family's title dispute or to make findings about any individual, and I am not alleging wrongdoing by you. I ask that records be identified, searched for and disclosed, and that the matters in section 4 be considered.\n\n1. INTERNAL REVIEW OF THE 11 OCTOBER REFUSAL (FOIA s.12; EIR reg. 11)\n\nPlease treat this as a formal request for the internal review you offered, of the section 12 refusal of my request of 21 September. To the extent any information is environmental, please also treat it as representations under regulation 11 of the EIR 2004.\n\nMy request had three categories: (a) records created after the 2002 deposit concerning Great House Farm / Tý Mawr, Church View Close, the village green (including VG 41) or the roadside verge by the churchyard wall; (b) photographs, postcards or images of the farm, barn, green or church surroundings, of any date; (c) records showing what, if anything, transferred from Penarth Town Council at the 1982 reorganisation, and where pre-1982 records were deposited. I ask the reviewer to address:\n\n(i) Scope. The estimate covers only the reading of 224 sets of minutes for 2002-2016. Please explain why that is necessary and sufficient for each category, particularly (b) and (c), and what other searches were considered: correspondence and email files, photograph collections, transfer or deposit records, any index or electronic copy of the minutes, and sampling.\n\n(ii) Arithmetic. The letter gives 20 minutes to read plus 10 minutes to assess each set, which is 30 minutes x 224 = 6,720 minutes (112 hours), but states 2,240 minutes (37 hours), which is 10 minutes x 224. Please confirm which calculation was used and which activities under regulation 4 of the Fees Regulations it includes. I accept the limit is exceeded on either figure.\n\n(iii) Section 12(2). Please say whether the cost of determining whether the information is held would itself exceed the limit, or whether the estimate concerns locating and extracting information once its existence is established.\n\n(iv) EIR. The green, verge, trees, woodland and land boundaries are likely to be environmental information. Please say which parts were assessed under the EIR. The FOIA cost limit is not an EIR refusal ground; if regulation 12(4)(b) is relied on, please give the reasons, the public interest assessment and the presumption in favour of disclosure.\n\n(v) Advice and assistance (s.16 FOIA; reg. 9 EIR). Limiting the minutes to 2002-2006 does not address (b) or (c). Please say whether any part can be answered within the limit and suggest a practical refinement.\n\n(vi) Without prejudice to the review: if the refusal is maintained, please treat parts (b) and (c) alone as a refined request, assessed under the correct regime, so that no time is lost.\n\nPlease have the review carried out by someone who took no part in the original decision, with the outcome and reasons in writing. I would be grateful for the outcome within 20 working days.\n\n2. NEW REQUEST FOR RECORDED INFORMATION (FOIA and, where environmental, EIR)\n\nThis is a separate request, not a refinement of the one under review. Please search for Council-held or controlled minutes, agendas, reports, correspondence, complaints, notes or referrals:\n\n(i) from approximately 1986 to 1990 concerning Great House Farm / Tý Mawr, its occupation, title or tenure, development or demolition, including any concerns raised by my late father, William \"Billy\" Buckler, or other family members. I have family information that my father raised concerns at Council meetings around 1988, described within the family as fraud-related. I cannot verify whether he did, what was said or what followed, and I do not present it as established fact. I ask whether the Council's records can establish what, if anything, was reported, how it was handled, and whether it was referred to any other body;\n\n(ii) of any date concerning the village green, roadside verge, trees and adjoining woodland, and any reported extension of Church View Close gardens beyond their boundaries into the woodland, including correspondence with the charity that holds the woodland, residents or other authorities;\n\n(iii) concerning the 2002 deposit: please confirm whether the Council retains or controls any copies of the minutes deposited with Glamorgan Archives, and identify any record of that transfer, its date, and any archival reference or destination known to the Council. I am separately pursuing the deposited volumes with Glamorgan Archives.\n\nI assert a proprietary interest in Parcel A and the adjoining woodland, but I do not ask the Council to adjudicate title. If nothing is held after appropriate searches, please say so. If anything is withheld, please identify the statutory basis and reasons.\n\n3. SUBJECT ACCESS REQUEST (Article 15 UK GDPR; Data Protection Act 2018)\n\nPlease provide a copy of my personal data held by the Council, including data in minutes, correspondence, reports, photographs or other records (including retained historical records) concerning my presence at Great House Farm as a child, the events surrounding the family's removal and the 1988 demolition, and any later record that identifies or refers to me. An electronic copy, ordinarily without charge, is fine. If you reasonably need identity evidence, please tell me promptly what is required. I understand the one-month period under Article 12(3) runs from receipt of this request, or of any identity evidence reasonably requested. This section concerns only my personal data; my father's reported statements and the wider records are dealt with in section 2.\n\n4. THE OCTOBER MEETING\n\nYour email says my \"other matters\" will be considered at the October meeting. Please confirm:\n- the purpose of that statement, and whether I am invited to attend;\n- the date, time and venue, public attendance arrangements and any remote option;\n- the agenda, item numbers and papers, as soon as available;\n- whether my correspondence will be circulated to councillors, how decisions and any actions will be minuted, and how I can obtain the minutes or formal outcome;\n- how I may make representations as a member of the public, including any procedure, deadline and speaking limit.\nI have not yet decided whether to attend.\n\nI ask that the following be placed on the agenda, as issues for clarification and not as findings:\n\n(a) From my 21 September email: whether the Council will pass my contact details to any former member, former clerk or long-standing resident who may wish to contact me (entirely at their choice); table and minute my correspondence in full; and accept my offer of a short talk, without charge, on the documentary record.\n\n(b) The green south of the former farmhouse: what the Council understands its present role to be (owner, manager, custodian or otherwise), and the recorded instrument, plan or Council decision on which that understanding rests. The family's research raises a question whether this land was distinct from the agricultural parcel addressed in the 1955 possession proceedings. I ask the Council to check its own records, not to decide that question.\n\n(c) The woodland behind the houses: I understand the charity responsible for it has raised concerns that some adjoining gardens extend beyond their boundaries. I cannot verify that. Please establish the charity's precise account, whether the Council holds relevant plans or correspondence, and refer any substantiated concern to the appropriate landowner or authority. I do not ask for findings about individual residents without evidence.\n\n(d) The 1989 planning record: the copy available to me refers to annexes containing representations from historic societies concerning Great House Farm, which appear to be absent. Please consider whether the Council holds copies and whether it will ask the planning authority or relevant archive to locate the complete papers. This matters to understanding what was put before the decision-makers following the demolition.\n\n(e) The historic site today: a site visit and, in due course, the merits of an interpretation board or plaque addressing the farm, the archaeological discoveries (the excavation beneath Church View Close recorded 1,026 burials, above a Roman villa and an Iron Age roundhouse) and the history of the green.\n\nThe same distinction applies to my father's reported concerns and to my own claim: they are matters requiring clarification, not established findings. If any proposed action is outside the Community Council's powers, please identify the appropriate body.\n\n5. CHARGES AND THE CLERK'S POSITION\n\nI do not authorise paid searches or accept any charge, and ask that no cost chargeable to me be incurred without my prior written agreement. If the Council offers to comply for a fee (FOIA s.13) or proposes a charge for environmental information, please send an itemised quotation for consideration only (not acceptance): the legal basis, the work proposed, hours and hourly rate, the total, whether the work can be staged (for example, parts 1(b) and 1(c) first), any published EIR charging schedule, payment methods, payee, payment reference and deadline.\n\nYour 11 October email is signed as Clerk, and I understood from public information that you retired from that post in June 2026. Please confirm: (a) whether you are currently Clerk, or acting or locum, and since when; (b) who is the Council's Proper Officer and who has custody of its records; (c) whether the 11 October decision was yours personally or the Council's; (d) whether any handover or inventory of records was made on a change of clerk; and (e) who will conduct the internal review. I ask only to establish who is accountable for the review and the records.\n\nPlease reply by email and by post to [redacted].\n\nThank you again for your time and courtesy.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber / Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\n[redacted]"},{"id":"wb-30795830","subject":"Llandough community council internal review request","name":"2026-10-12 - Llandough Community Council internal-review-request - EN - V0.0.0.01.txt","date":"2026-10-12","dateStatus":"filename-date-unverified","category":"Council and local authority correspondence","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"DATRO Wayback public text archive","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/text/2026-10-12%20-%20Llandough%20Community%20Council%20internal-review-request%20-%20EN%20-%20V0.0.0.01.txt","threadSlug":"llandough-community-council-internal-review-request","scopeTopics":["email","ghf","foi"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["email","ghf","foi"],"sourcePath":"text/2026-10-12 - Llandough Community Council internal-review-request - EN - V0.0.0.01.txt","classificationNote":"Indexed from the public Wayback text catalogue by case-related filename and/or existing public catalogue tags.

I write about matters of serious public interest to the family and to Llandough's history, and I ask the Council to treat this correspondence with priority and to give it its full cooperation. The email contains six separate matters. Please respond to each under its own number. Nothing below withdraws, narrows or replaces my original request of 21 September, and attendance at a meeting is not a condition of my information rights.\n\nI am not asking the Council to adjudicate the family's title dispute or to make findings about any individual, and I am not alleging wrongdoing by you. I am asking the Council to account accurately for its own records, knowledge, decisions and referrals, and to distinguish clearly between what its primary records establish, what is merely recorded as said, and what remains uncertain. If a search shows that nothing was recorded or referred, I ask that the Council say so plainly, because that is itself important.\n\n1. PRESERVATION OF RECORDS\n\nBecause these requests concern historic records that may be time-sensitive for other proceedings and bodies, please:\n(a) confirm in writing, within 5 working days, that all potentially relevant records have been preserved and that any scheduled disposal, destruction or retention-schedule review affecting them is suspended. This covers paper and electronic minutes, agendas, correspondence, emails, clerk's notes, plans, photographs, files and archive-transfer or deposit paperwork, and any such material held on the Council's behalf by a current or former councillor, clerk or officer, including at home;\n(b) ask each current councillor, and, where practicable, the Council's former clerks and members, whether they hold any such material, and include whatever is found in the searches below.\nI raise this as a precaution.

INTERNAL REVIEW OF THE 11 OCTOBER REFUSAL (FOIA s.12; EIR reg. 11)\n\nPlease treat this as a formal request for the internal review you offered, of the section 12 refusal of my request of 21 September. To the extent any information is environmental, please also treat it as representations under regulation 11 of the EIR 2004.\n\nMy request had three categories: (a) records created after the 2002 deposit concerning Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Church View Close, the village green (including VG 41) or the roadside verge by the churchyard wall; (b) photographs, postcards or images of the farm, barn, green or church surroundings, of any date; (c) records showing what, if anything, transferred from Penarth Town Council at the 1982 reorganisation, and where pre-1982 records were deposited. I ask the reviewer to address:\n\n(i) Scope. The estimate covers only the reading of 224 sets of minutes for 2002-2016. Please explain why that is necessary and sufficient for each category, particularly (b) and (c), and what other searches were considered: correspondence and email files, photograph collections, transfer or deposit records, any index, catalogue, minute heading or electronic copy of the minutes, targeted searches on the place names, former names and dates in my request, and sampling.\n\n(ii) Arithmetic. The letter gives 20 minutes to read plus 10 minutes to assess each set, which is 30 minutes x 224 = 6,720 minutes (112 hours), but states 2,240 minutes (37 hours), which is 10 minutes x 224. The figures do not reconcile. Please confirm which calculation was used and which activities under regulation 4 of the Fees Regulations it includes. I accept the limit is exceeded on either figure, so I do not rely on this point alone.\n\n(iii) Section 12(2). Please say whether the cost of determining whether the information is held would itself exceed the limit, or whether the estimate concerns locating and extracting information once its existence is established. Section 1(1)(a) duty to confirm or deny is preserved unless that cost alone exceeds the limit.\n\n(iv) EIR. The green, verge, trees, woodland and land boundaries are likely to be environmental information. Please say which parts were assessed under the EIR. The FOIA cost limit is not an EIR refusal ground; if regulation 12(4)(b) is relied on, please state it expressly with reasons and carry out the public interest assessment, including the presumption in favour of disclosure.\n\n(v) Advice and assistance (s.16 FOIA; reg. 9 EIR). Limiting the minutes to 2002-2006 does not address categories (b) or (c). Please say whether any part can be answered within the limit and advise a practical refinement.\n\n(vi) Without prejudice to the review: if the refusal is maintained, please treat categories (b) and (c) alone as a refined request, assessed under the correct regime, so that no time is lost.\n\nPlease acknowledge this request, identify who will conduct the review (someone who took no part in the original decision), and give the anticipated date. I would be grateful for the outcome and reasons in writing within 20 working days.\n\n3. NEW REQUEST FOR RECORDED INFORMATION (FOIA and, where environmental, EIR)\n\nThis is a separate request, not a refinement of the one under review. Please search for Council-held or controlled minutes, agendas, reports, correspondence, complaints, notes, representations or referrals:\n\n(i) from 1 January 1986 to 31 December 1990 concerning Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, its occupation, title or tenure, development, removal of the occupants or demolition, including communications with the Vale of Glamorgan Council, planning authorities, developers, solicitors, landowners, police, heritage bodies or other public authorities. This includes any concerns raised by my late father, William \"Billy\" Buckler, or other family members. I have family information that my father raised concerns at Council meetings around 1988, described within the family as fraud-related. I cannot verify whether he did, what was said or what followed, and I do not present it as established fact. I ask whether the Council's records establish what, if anything, was reported, how it was handled, whether it was referred to any other body, and what response followed. References to fraud identify a subject for the search; they are not a claim that a record of fraud exists;\n\n(ii) planning records, plans, annexes, correspondence and supporting documents relating to application 89/01396/OUT (as I understand the reference) and any related consideration of the redevelopment. The copy available to me refers to annexes containing representations from historic societies concerning Great House Farm, which appear to be absent. Please confirm whether the Council holds them and, if not, whether its records identify another custodian or archive;\n\n(iii) of any date concerning the village green, roadside verge, trees and adjoining woodland: history, status, boundaries, maintenance, planting, public use, and any reported extension of Church View Close gardens beyond their boundaries into the woodland, including correspondence with the charity that holds the woodland, residents, the Vale of Glamorgan Council or other authorities. I am aware the official VG 41 registration file is understood to be held by the Vale of Glamorgan Council; I ask only for the Council's own copies, correspondence, representations and referrals;\n\n(iv) concerning the 2002 deposit: please confirm whether the Council retains or controls any copies of the minutes deposited with Glamorgan Archives, and identify any record of that transfer, its date, and any archival reference or destination known to the Council. I am separately pursuing the deposited volumes with Glamorgan Archives.\n\nI assert a proprietary interest in Parcel A and the adjoining woodland, but I do not ask the Council to adjudicate title. If any part is thought too broad, please identify that part and say what narrower search is practicable, rather than refusing the whole. If nothing is held after appropriate searches, please say so and identify any known transfer or deposit location. If anything is withheld, please identify the statutory basis and reasons. I understand the 20-working-day period under section 10 FOIA and regulation 5 EIR runs from receipt of this email.\n\n4. SUBJECT ACCESS REQUEST (Article 15 UK GDPR; Data Protection Act 2018)\n\nPlease provide a copy of my personal data held by the Council, including data in minutes, correspondence, reports, photographs or other records (including retained historical records) concerning my presence at Great House Farm as a child, the events surrounding the family's removal and the 1988 demolition, and any later record that identifies or refers to me. An electronic copy, ordinarily without charge, is fine. Please acknowledge this as a subject access request. If you reasonably need identity evidence, please tell me promptly what is required. I understand the one-month period under Article 12(3) runs from receipt of this request, or of any identity evidence reasonably requested. This section concerns only my personal data; my father's reported statements and the wider records are dealt with in section 3.\n\n5. THE OCTOBER MEETING\n\nYour email says my \"other matters\" will be considered at the October meeting. You gave no date, time, venue or agenda. Please confirm within 5 working days:\n- whether the meeting has already taken place and, if so, its date, the agenda and papers, the minute or other record of consideration, and any decision or action;\n- if it has not, the date, time, venue, public attendance arrangements and any remote option, and the draft or published agenda showing which of my matters are scheduled and under which item numbers;\n- whether I am invited to attend (I have not yet decided whether to) and how a member of the public may make representations on relevant business, including any procedure, deadline and speaking limit;\n- that this entire email, and my earlier correspondence, will be circulated to all councillors, how decisions and actions will be minuted, and how I can obtain the minutes or formal outcome.\n\nI ask that the following be placed on the agenda, as issues for clarification and not as findings:\n\n(a) From my 21 September email: whether the Council will pass my contact details to any former member, former clerk or long-standing resident who may wish to contact me (entirely at their choice, and with no disclosure of their details to me without consent); table and minute my correspondence in full; and accept my offer of a short talk, without charge, on the documentary record.\n\n(b) The green south of the former farmhouse: what the Council understands its present role to be (owner, manager, custodian or otherwise), and the recorded instrument, plan or Council decision on which that understanding rests. The family's research raises a question whether this land was distinct from the agricultural parcel addressed in the 1955 possession proceedings. I ask the Council to check its own records, not to decide that question.\n\n(c) The woodland behind the houses: I understand the charity responsible for it has raised concerns that some adjoining gardens extend beyond their boundaries. I cannot verify that. Please establish the charity's precise account, whether the Council holds relevant plans or correspondence, and refer any substantiated concern to the appropriate landowner or authority. I do not ask for findings about individual residents without evidence.\n\n(d) The 1989 planning record and the missing annexes (see 3(ii)): whether the Council holds copies and whether it will ask the planning authority or relevant archive to locate the complete papers. This matters to understanding what was put before the decision-makers following the demolition.\n\n(e) My father's reported 1980s concerns (see 3(i)): that the Council consider what its own records show and, if they show nothing, say so.\n\n(f) The historic site today: a site visit and, in due course, the merits of an interpretation board or plaque addressing the farm, the archaeological discoveries (the excavation beneath Church View Close recorded 1,026 burials, above a Roman villa and an Iron Age roundhouse) and the history of the green.\n\nIf any proposed action is outside the Community Council's powers, please identify the appropriate body.\n\n6. CHARGES AND THE CLERK'S POSITION\n\nI do not authorise paid searches or accept any charge, and ask that no cost chargeable to me be incurred without my prior written agreement. If the Council offers to comply for a fee (FOIA s.13) or proposes a charge for environmental information, please send an itemised quotation for consideration only (not acceptance): the legal basis, the work proposed, hours and hourly rate, the total, whether the work can be staged (for example, categories 2(b) and 2(c) first), any published EIR charging schedule, payment methods, payee, payment reference and deadline.\n\nYour 11 October email is signed as Clerk, and I understood from public information that you retired from that post in June 2026. I treat that as unverified. Please confirm: (a) whether you are currently Clerk, or acting or locum, and since when; (b) who is the Council's Proper Officer and who has custody of its records; (c) whether the 11 October decision was yours personally or the Council's; (d) whether any handover or inventory of records was made on a change of clerk; and (e) who will conduct the internal review.\n\nI would prefer to resolve all of this cooperatively and with the Council's full help. If the matters above are not dealt with properly, I will have to consider a complaint to the Information Commissioner (including on advice and assistance, the duty to confirm or deny and the EIR handling) and to the Public Services Ombudsman for Wales. I would rather not need to. Please acknowledge receipt of this email and each numbered part within 5 working days, and reply by email and by post to [redacted].\n\nThank you for your time and courtesy.\n\nRegards,\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber / Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n[redacted]"},{"id":"wb-497522e1","subject":"Museum wales FOI 2026 024 036","name":"2026-10-12 - Museum Wales FOI 2026-024 036 - EN - V0.0.0.00.txt","date":"2026-10-12","dateStatus":"filename-date-unverified","category":"FOI / EIR correspondence","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"DATRO Wayback public text archive","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/text/2026-10-12%20-%20Museum%20Wales%20FOI%202026-024%20036%20-%20EN%20-%20V0.0.0.00.txt","threadSlug":"museum-wales-foi-2026-024-036","scopeTopics":["email","ghf","foi"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["email","ghf","foi"],"sourcePath":"text/2026-10-12 - Museum Wales FOI 2026-024 036 - EN - V0.0.0.00.txt","classificationNote":"Indexed from the public Wayback text catalogue by case-related filename and/or existing public catalogue tags.

Reference: Biglis, Caldicot and Llandough (ed. D. M. Robinson), BAR 188 (1988).\n   Information on Great House Farm itself was limited to the record of the recently demolished property, listed as a county treasure.

Llandough Community Council had offered £100 if BP met the balance. GGAT noted BP were not the developer in the strict sense: they wanted to sell with outline permission.\n   Appendix: extract of GGAT letter to J. Maitland Evans, 1 October 1982.

All buildings, including Great House Farm, demolished.\n   Outline application; illustrative layout of 18 dwellings and access to Leckwith Road, matters reserved.\n   Planning history: 8996/3337, 13 houses, same site, approved conditionally 25 July 1972.\n   Llandough Community Council: no objection, but part of the land is a registered village green.\n   Engineering: public foul sewer only; alternative surface-water disposal required.\n   Cardiff Bay Development Corporation: no objection; retain trees on the north-west slope and the public right of way through the site.\n   Welsh Water: applicant to liaise on foul drainage; a connection to the new Eastern District pumping main would not be permitted.\n   Representations from the Barry Preservation Society and a county councillor (a member of GGAT), attached as appendices C and D (those letters are not in this scan).\n   Applicant's agents replied to GGAT; that letter was appendix E (not in this scan).\n   Most of the land allocated for housing in the East Vale Local Plan (policy H2.1). The policy said buildings on the site should be retained; they had been demolished a little while before. The remainder is inside the developed area. Sections are too steep. The site includes a registered village green (a very small area is also the subject of two searches) and is crossed by a public right of way.\n   Recommendation: approve, subject to conditions, including the standard archaeology condition in Appendix B to Welsh Office Circular 1/85.\n   Draft conditions include: structures only on level ground, not on steep or wooded areas; at least 0.1 ha (0.25 acre) beside Leckwith Road and the church boundary kept as village green / amenity; vehicular access at the north-western edge onto the A4055 with 4.5 m x 60 m sightlines; estate roads minimum 5.5 m with 1.8 m footways and 10.5 m kerb radii; public right of way along the north-western boundary not obstructed; retain the stone wall.\n\n4. Decision, 13 March 1990. Vale of Glamorgan Borough Council. Application 89/01396/OUT.\n   Outline permission GRANTED for residential development including a new access road at Land at Great House Farm, Leckwith Road, Llandough, Penarth.\n   Application and plans received 8 November 1989.\n   Reserved matters within 3 years; development begun within 5 years of this permission or 2 years of the last reserved-matter approval, whichever is later.\n   Condition 5: 0.25 acres adjacent to Leckwith Road and the boundary with St Dochdwy's Church to be laid out as a village green / amenity area before beneficial use. Reason: to retain and enhance the existing registered village green.\n   Condition 8: do not obstruct the public right of way along the north-western boundary.\n   Condition 15: retain and make good the existing stone wall fronting the site, except where the access or building operations require otherwise.\n   Conditions 16–18: archaeologist nominated by the authority may observe excavations; no development until a field evaluation and archaeological assessment by a qualified archaeologist, to be carried out within three months of the consent; detail plans must have regard to that assessment.\n\n5. Plans bundle (one PDF, several dates).\n   - Debenham Tewson 1:2500 location plan, identification only, stamped 8901396. Shows St Dochdwy's, the farm group, Llandough Moors and the surrounding streets.\n   - Certified true copy of the register map, Deputy County Solicitor, 18 June 1985.

Please do not EVER send us bank account details by email. If this is unavoidable YOU must telephone US to check we have the right details. Our bank account details NEVER change. If you receive an email or telephone call from us asking you to transfer funds to a different bank account to the one notified to you in hard copy, it is FAKE.

Call us back on [phone redacted] to check the details BEFORE making any payments or transfers; and\n 2.

This page\n<https://www.hcrlaw.com/people/jane-mayglothling/> told me about you.\nThis article <https://www.hcrlaw.com/blog/what-is-a-possessory-title/> sent\nme to that page after I Google'd the terms 'possessory title' .\n\nI am the son of William Buckler. Of the 'BP vs Buckler' case of adverse\npossession.\nI am now 31 years old and in Oath to defend rights and freedoms (Gov ID:\n25148537).\n\nNot many people are aware of the true story of this case. I'm now able to\nexpose the truth thanks to skills I acquired in my career as a Cyber\nWarfare/ Security Engineer.\n\nBP did a back hand deal with an archaeological firm who discovered roman\nburials under our family farm land. The 34 year campaign to remove us from\nour land and steal the gold which lay beneath (to sell to museums) was a\nscandal of that time and still not public information. But the scandal runs\ndeeper.\n\nMy father died never fully understanding his inalienable or inherent birth\nrights. I single highhandedly wrote the same amount of code it takes to fly\na US drone or F22 Fighter Jet last year, so reading through and\nunderstanding the Bill of Rights, Magna Carta and the UK's 750 'statute'\nrules wasn't too difficult for me.\n\nWhat I concluded from it all, was that democracy is not voting for the\nleader and rule makers of the society we are members of. Democracy is in\nfact, a free British Subjects right to leave, join or form any society we\nchoose (with any 'statute' rules we consent to be governed by -\nindividually!).\n\nThe 1801 UK \"Society\" (Regime) now closer resembles an Evil, Tyrannical,\nNationwide Cult, which doesn't serve and defend with the allodial title of\nGreat Britain we afford it. Its statute rules, in a lot of cases, actually\nviolate the laws of the land. We are systematically being\nenslaved-from-birth (made members of this society by child abduction and\nforce) and harvested of everything we once had e.g. land, liberty, wealth,\nproperty and even each other.\n\nSo I vow to 'renounce' membership/ citizenship from Britain's new No.1\nEnemy (The 1801 UK \"Society\") and join/form a new British Society. Which I\nhave done!!\n\nThe 2015 United Technocracy Society was founded and financed by myself and\n50 other British Subjects, most in Oath and still in active duty. We have a\nstronghold with a defense force and are unofficially a British Protectorate\n(protecting our societies members from UK Regime oppression, austerity,\ngenocide, interment, touchless torture etc). I will be inviting my\nCommander-In-Chief to give our new Act of Union Her Royal Assent and I will\nseek Royal Charter once we reach 5,000 members.\n\nI never know how much liberty or life I have remaining making this stand\nagainst the UK Regime. As it is one of the most powerful in the world. I\nrecently had a safe house raided by secret services, I've lost two Private\nMilitary Security Contractors and my driver was in a Diana-style RTA. But I\nhonor my Oath and Father and I am determine to see through what I began as\nit is both legal and lawful and fully warranted.\n\nGoogle awarded my Technocratic System of Governance two patents in January\nso we're off to a good start. And we've sold our first 'Neo-Dome' today.\nWhich provides free internet and electricity to those moving Off-Grid. For\neach 5 we sell we're able to create a new mesh network and a 6th dome will\nbe erected for schools, churches and hospitals. I plan to resettle\n(proclaim)back my birth land, once my colonies and defense force have grown\nin strength and numbers.\n\nYes I am a threat to society! The 1801 UK \"Society\" specifically. But it's\nbeen more than a threat to our country, families, wealth and children's\nfuture for many years and someone has to put an end to it! I'm willing and\nable to be the John Gault people needs. I'm a proficient military commander\nand leader, cyber security expect (hacker) and I've made more progress for\nthe freeman movement than Dean Clifford, Roger Hayes or John Harris ever\ndid.\n\nThank you for your time reading this.\nI hope you and others alike will pick the right side when the time comes.\n\nKind Regards,\n\nHywel ApBuckler\nPrime Technocrat\nUnited Technocracy, GB\nskype: hywel.buckler\n"},{"id":"wb-09c03670","subject":"Consortium correspondence BP v Buckler","name":"2024-02-24_consortium-correspondence_bpvsbuckler_en_v0.0.1.00.txt","date":"2024-02-24","dateStatus":"filename-date-unverified","category":"Court and legal correspondence","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"DATRO Wayback public text archive","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/text/2024-02-24_consortium-correspondence_bpvsbuckler_en_v0.0.1.00.txt","threadSlug":"consortium-correspondence-bp-v-buckler","scopeTopics":["bpvsbuckler"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["bpvsbuckler"],"sourcePath":"text/2024-02-24_consortium-correspondence_bpvsbuckler_en_v0.0.1.00.txt","classificationNote":"Indexed from the public Wayback text catalogue by case-related filename and/or existing public catalogue tags.

But life is good in comparison to many people and my faith in the Bible and our ministry work as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses keeps me very busy which I love. I have been a JW now for almost 40 years!

Because my mum can no longer do the ministry she stays at home and writes letters. If the weather is particularly bad I will sometimes sit with her and write letters too which is how you came to receive one from me.

I'm perfectly open to making a new friend.&nbsp;</div><div dir=\"auto\"><br></div><div dir=\"auto\">I'm not exactly sure what I've done to deserve the universe conspiring in my favour so much lately. I'm already blessed with 4 incredible best friends (2 men/2 woman) of decades. And a wife and two children.&nbsp;</div><div dir=\"auto\"><br></div><div dir=\"auto\">I'm the grandson of a best actor/ 1993 Wesh Bafta award winner: Ray Smith, from the TV series Dempsey and Makepeace. His son (my uncle) started the band Tigertailz. And all the success originated at our house here on [redacted] as it happens. My father was William Buckler from Great House Farm in Llandough. (See BP Vs Buckler 1987). Our farm was next to the church in Llandough. I believe the kitchen table I grew up eating breakfast on, was the same table Marconi invented the radio while he stayed with our family.&nbsp;</div><div dir=\"auto\"><br></div><div dir=\"auto\">The whole BP Vs Buckler story was local headlines at the time. But take anything you read with a pinch of salt. What I understand to have actually happened, with the war chest of information I inherited from my dad's death, was that my parents and grandparents before them, leased and worked the farm for hundreds of years. We acquired the title deeds in exchange for allowing some quarrying to be done. BP and Cotswold archeologists teamed up to try to get the treasure under our farm by trying to unlawfully evict and remove us from the equation. And after 34 years battling BP we lost our farm in court to them. And after my family and I stood there with the community, watching them bulldose our home down, BP exccevated all the Roman burials under our farm and sold the artifacts and land. My father's heart literally stopped, he fought to defend our home and family to the death.</div><div dir=\"auto\"><br></div><div dir=\"auto\">I grew up. Moved on. I won an assisted place in Llandovery College. And went onto work in military intelligence/ cyber security and warfare.&nbsp;</div><div dir=\"auto\"><br></div><div dir=\"auto\">Until in 2013 I stumbled across some things nobody was meant to see. My 36 day old son got abducted and used to try to ransom me. My options were either be silent or be party to corruption and crimes. I chose exile and refused to return until my son and I got justice.&nbsp;</div><div dir=\"auto\"><br></div><div dir=\"auto\">It was a long road to justice and getting out of exile and returning home to Britain after almost a decade overseas. I immediately got a puppy, caught up with old family and friends and got some work in elderly adult healthcare with the Vale Council.&nbsp;</div><div dir=\"auto\"><br></div><div dir=\"auto\">I refrained from going back up to Yorkshire and kicking that old bees nest last year. I can only hope and pray my son's ok. Instead I stayed out of trouble at my families horse farm (Newmill Farm) in Monknash.&nbsp;</div><div dir=\"auto\"><br></div><div dir=\"auto\">Then unexpectedly a woman I spent my time in exile with (and loved very much), reached out to reciprocate my feelings and announced we were pregnant - And we both couldn't have been happier. She is the love of my life and woman of my dreams.</div><div dir=\"auto\"><br></div><div dir=\"auto\">So last October I flew right back to the Caribbean island which took me a decade to escape, married my now wife (November 27th), then got us a car and villa near her families home. Then on the 27th December our daughter Delyth was born - happy and healthy. After just 3 short hours of labor too. And within a matter of hours we were all home together in our spare room/ nursery, surrounded by our family and friends.&nbsp;</div><div dir=\"auto\"><br></div><div dir=\"auto\">I'm just back in Britain now to get my dog and take him back to the Caribbean with me. I'm right now arranging a ferry to Europe and I'll fly back from there. And I'm trying to arrange obtaining my medals and getting tailored for my army 1's dress/ uniform, ahead of our wedding later this year.</div><div dir=\"auto\"><br></div><div dir=\"auto\">But a fisherman always sees another fisherman from afar. I've worked with intelligence agencies who would love your methods of communication. Feels very revolutionary to hand deliver a letter.

My aim is to identify and preserve every surviving record of how this land changed hands, who made each decision, and on what record.\n\nBackground, from public sources:\n- Western Ground Rents Ltd (company no. 00342092) is reported to have bought the Bute family's urban estate in 1938. It let farm land at Llandough from 1939, and it conveyed land at Llandough to the BP Pension Trust by a conveyance recited in HM Land Registry's records as dated 31 December 1969.\n- On 26 June 1996 its members placed it in members' voluntary liquidation, together with other dormant companies whose registered office was BP House (London Gazette, issue 54455, 3 July 1996, pages\n8979 and 8982). The final meeting was called for 16 May 1997 (London Gazette, issue 54739, page 4683), and the company was dissolved in 1997.\n\nPlease tell me whether the Bona Vacantia Division (or the Treasury Solicitor, before the Government Legal Department was formed) holds any information about this company, and in particular:\n\n1. Whether any property, right or interest of Western Ground Rents Ltd was referred to your Division, or vested in the Crown as bona vacantia, on or after its dissolution. This includes freehold land, woodland, freehold reversions on leases, ground rents or rentcharges, and any reserved mines and minerals, and especially anything at Llandough, Leckwith, Cogan or Penarth.\n\n2. For any such property: when and how it came to your notice (and who referred it, if a company or public body); what was done with it (sale, transfer, disclaimer under section 656 of the Companies Act\n1985 or section 1013 of the Companies Act 2006, or retention); the date and the instrument; the buyer or transferee and the price, if a company or public body; and the record of the decision, with the role of the officer who approved it.\n\n3. Any enquiry, application or correspondence about the company's property received since 1997 (for example from HM Land Registry, a local authority, a developer, a charity or a BP group company), with its date, the enquirer if a company or public body, and your reply.\n\n4. Whether any application was made to restore the company to the register, and any letter your Division issued in connection with it.\n\n5. If your Division held records about the company that are no longer\nheld: when they were destroyed or transferred, under which retention schedule, and the record authorising that.\n\nA \"not held\" answer to any part would be just as useful as a positive one. If anything is withheld, please name the exemption relied on for each part. Copies by email are ideal.\n\nPlease reply within 20 working days, by 17 November 2026.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com\n\n\n________________________________\nThe information in this e-mail belongs to HM Government and may be confidential or otherwise protected by law.

However, we do not have an itemised list of the microfiche that was sent: we just sent the section of microfiche collection relating to sites in Wales.\n\nWe have also found a record from RACHMW Coflein which may relate to the material from us\n\nhttps://coflein.gov.uk/en/search?term=6500905&type=archive\n\n\nI am sorry that I have been unable to provide you with the information that you have asked for on this occasion.

I am not asking her to do any of those things.\n\nYour letter explains that the ICR \"can give a view on whether HMLR has followed its standard procedure in reviewing registration decisions and whether its complaint responses clearly and fully deal with the matters within HMLR's remit\". I respectfully ask her to reconsider on that limited basis only. HMLR's replies to me (23 March, 19 April, 25 May and 30 July 2026) did not answer three factual questions about HMLR's own records, each of which is within HMLR's remit and none of which asks HMLR or the ICR to decide who owns the land:\n1. whether HMLR's records show that any enquiry or notice was sent to the occupiers of the farmhouse before the first registrations of 1982–83, and if so to whom, at what address and on what date. The Stage 2 response says HMLR \"did not receive or were aware of any interest that you or your family may or may not have had in the land\"; it does not say whether a notice was sent;\n2. why the conveyance of 31 December 1969, relied on as the root of title, does not appear in the schedule of documents on the first-registration file released on 30 July 2026, and whether HMLR holds it under any other reference;\n3. on what application the two titles were amalgamated on 2 February 1987, and whether the record shows what was known then about the pending appeal.\n\nOne small point of record: your letter refers to the Stage 1 response as dated 19 April 2025. I believe it is dated 19 April 2026.\n\nIf the ICR will not reconsider, please confirm in writing that her decision of 9 October 2026 is final, so that I can ask my MP to consider a referral to the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman, enclosing your letter as you suggest. A reply by 6 November 2026 would be appreciated.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional\nhttps://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com\nOn Mon, Oct 12, 2026 at 10:09 AM, ICR Office Inbox <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler\n\nThank you for your email.\n\nIt appears that you have not received my letter dated 9 October 2026 which I sent on the same date.

I also hold the schedule of 43 documents on the first-registration files released on 30 July 2026.\n\nThe family’s established case, recorded on the public wiki and under investigation, is that the 1877 arrangement took effect in 1928, transferring the full Parcel A (house and buildings, barn, stable and west-side yard, garden, northern forest and the south-east ground later registered as VG41) to the Williams family. The 1939 agreement/plan depicts Parcel B only. On the family account, the 1949 attempt to make the occupation of Parcel A permissive failed, title papers were reported missing in 1950–52, and Western Ground Rents’ 4 July 1955 enforcement of Parcel B also seized the Parcel-A forest and green under “whole farm” wording. Later documentary work is directed at corroborating or precisely mapping that account and tracing those areas into later titles.\n\nFour specific points remain unanswered and are relevant to that investigation:\n\n1. The 1969 root deed recited as the root of title does not appear on the schedule. Please confirm whether HMLR holds that deed under any other reference, or whether it was never lodged.\n2. What evidence exists on the file of notice or opportunity to object given to the occupying family (Williams / Buckler) in 1982–83.\n3. The precise legal and administrative basis for the 1987 title amalgamation that took place while the Court of Appeal proceedings in BP Properties Ltd v Buckler were still live.\n4. Whether the inclusion of the woodland (or any land beyond the 1938\nconveyance) is regarded as a possible mistake capable of alteration or indemnity under the Land Registration Act 2002 and Practice Guide 39.\n\nPlease confirm these points form part of the live investigation and state the exact start date of the ICR six-month period (so that the\n~25 November 2026 outer limit can be verified).\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a15daaa6d10bd96","subject":"Re: Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough – follow-up to my preservation notice of 28 September 2026","name":"Re: Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough – follow-up to my preservation notice of 28 September 2026","date":"2026-10-21T08:53:10Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a15daaa6d10bd96.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a1526ec926276db-great-house-farm-t-mawr-llandough-follow-up-to-my-preservation-notice-of-28-september-2026","scopeTopics":["ads"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["ads"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a1526ec926276db","direction":"received","from":"Archaeology Data Service","institutions":[{"id":"ads","name":"Archaeology Data Service"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a15daaa6d10bd96.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Sion,\n\nThank you for your follow up query and please find our responses further\nbelow.\n\n*Question 1: **whether the Archaeology Data Service holds any deposit,\nmetadata **record or archive identifier relating to Great House Farm / Tŷ\nMawr, **Llandough, in particular the 1990 Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological\nTrust **assessment or the 1994 Cotswold Archaeology work*\n\nThe ADS holds the following metadata records and digital resources:\n\n*a) METADATA RECORD*\n\nTy Mawr;Great House Farm.\n\n\nhttps://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk/data-catalogue/resource/016dc563db84d7089594378df3a91695f0464c1064e48fc878a0172326070b02\n\n\nRecord deposited with us by *Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical\nMonuments of Wales* as part of the Coflein database of sites and monuments\nin Wales.

Does the Council hold any Tŷ Mawr records besides the minute books deposited in 2002 (my email of 14 June)?\n3. Which agenda items cover the \"other matters\" your email of 11 October said would be considered in October?\n4. Who decided the meeting would be remote only, and on what date?\n5. When was the website agenda revised and republished?\n6. Where are the published arrangements for multi-location meetings (s.47, LGE(W)A 2021)?\n7. Was a physical public venue considered?\n8. When will my internal review (13 October) and narrower request (20 October) be answered, and will the review apply the EIR?\n9. Will my statement and briefing pack be received and minuted?\n10. If the remote-only decision stands, will its reasons be minuted?\n11. Which councillor is my point of contact?\n12.

With the meeting now two days away, I will join by Zoom using the link sent on 13 October and participate constructively. This is acceptance of the practical arrangements for this meeting, not withdrawal of my objection.\n\nYour reply answers point 5 of my email of 16 October, but leaves points 1–4 unanswered. I restate them below, with one further question about the notice (question 2), and would be grateful for a brief response to each, if possible before Thursday and in any event within 20 working days of this email:\n\n1. Decision: Who decided that the meeting would be held remotely only, and on what date?\n2. Notice: Was the agenda or meeting notice sent to me on 13 October subsequently revised? If so, when was it revised, and on what date was the revised notice published on the Council's website and noticeboards?\n3. Published arrangements: Please provide a link or copy of the Council's current published arrangements for multi-location meetings, which section 47 of the Local Government and Elections (Wales) Act 2021 requires the Council to make and publish, and identify whether any revision or replacement of those arrangements applies to this meeting.\n4. Public access: What consideration was given to residents who wish to observe or participate in person, including whether a physical public venue was considered and, if so, why it was not made available?\n\nI am not suggesting that the legislation guarantees a physical venue for every meeting. My concern is how the decision was made, which published arrangements apply, and how public access was considered in this instance.\n\nIf these questions cannot be answered before Thursday, please confirm that they remain outstanding and indicate when I can expect a response, which I would ask to be no later than 20 working days from this email. Please also retain this exchange with the meeting correspondence and identify where any formal decision or resolution concerning the arrangements is recorded.\n\nArrangements for Thursday's meeting\n\na) Public participation and Item 10\n\nPlease confirm the time limit for Item 4, the procedure for being admitted from the Zoom waiting room and invited to speak, and any separate time limit or procedure for making representations when Item 10 is reached. I intend to make a brief contribution under Item 4 and to address the Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr business under Item 10, in accordance with your confirmation concerning representations on published agenda business.\n\nb) Circulation and retention of the statement\n\nPlease circulate my supporting briefing and read-aloud statement to all councillors before the meeting:\n\n- \"Meeting briefing\" (https://2026-10-22.bucklerfamily.estate/)\n- \"Read-aloud statement\" (https://2026-10-22.bucklerfamily.estate/meeting-script.txt)\n\nPlease confirm whether the written statement can be retained with the meeting papers and referred to in the minutes. If the full briefing cannot be circulated before the meeting, I would be grateful if the statement could at least be circulated and the briefing link made available to councillors.\n\nc) The wider context and any future agenda item\n\nI understand that Item 10 covers two specific requests, and that Item 16 concerns correspondence rather than decisions on unlisted business. I am not asking the Council to determine title to the land or to make findings against any person or body.\n\nThe wider history, heritage and outstanding records questions may require separate consideration. If these matters cannot properly be addressed under Item 10, please advise whether I should now submit a request for a properly notified item at a future meeting and whether any particular notice, motion or other procedure is required.\n\nSeparate information and preservation matters\n\nSeparately from the meeting arrangements, please acknowledge receipt of my internal review request of 13 October (the later of my two emails that day, which stands as sent) and my narrower information request of 20 October, and advise the anticipated response date for each. As my request of 21 September concerns land and environmental information, I would ask that the review consider it under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004, which contain no cost limit equivalent to section 12 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000.\n\nI would also welcome confirmation of whether the Council holds planning files, section 52 or section 106 instruments, or related correspondence from 1988–1992 concerning planning references 89/01396/OUT and 92/00671/RES and, if so, whether those records are being retained pending the wider records enquiries.\n\nThe wider experience, which I ask to be placed on record before Thursday\n\nI raise the following so that the Council has my concerns in writing ahead of the meeting:\n\n- My first approach to the Council about this matter received the reply of 20 November 2025: \"I regret to inform you that we are unable to assist with the matter you raise.\" From my side, the Council has not engaged with the substance since then, which is why I have had to escalate by formal requests, an internal review and a complaint about the handling of my correspondence.\n- When I was told the matter could be raised at a meeting, I was not told where or when that meeting would be held. Only after I asked for those details so that I could attend did the meeting become remote only. I have travelled some 7,000 miles to be present in Llandough for it.\n- The Council regularly tells residents on its public social media that it is a community council that is transparent and approachable and that will answer questions. My experience has not matched that, and I ask the Council to explain the difference.\n- For my family, raising these matters at all is difficult. Since the demolition of Great House Farm in 1988, we have lived for 38 years largely silent and in fear about it. I have already explained this to you and to councillors. A remote-only meeting, arranged after I asked to attend in person, is not accommodating of that.\n- Thursday is my family's opportunity to have these matters recorded. I ask that this message, my briefing and my statement are kept with the meeting papers, so that the minutes can later be compared with the points raised, and any points not reached can be taken forward at a future meeting.\n\nI appreciate that this is shortly before the meeting. Where a substantive answer is not possible before Thursday, a brief acknowledgement identifying what remains outstanding and when it will be addressed (within 20 working days at the latest) would be helpful.\n\nI remain willing to participate constructively and appreciate your assistance in the run-up to the meeting.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler\n(Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\nOn Tue, Oct 20, 2026 at 10:14 PM, Sion Buckler <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Egan,\n>\n> Thank you for your reply of 20 October and for confirming that I will be given a reasonable opportunity to ask questions and make comments on business specified on the published agenda.\n>\n> I maintain my objection to the absence of an in-person option for members of the public.

You wrote that my request was \"for mapping information which is dealt with as part of our routine business\", that it had been forwarded to Customer Services, and that \"Our Customer Services Team will aim to respond to you within 10 working days.\" I have not received a reply from Customer Services, so I am writing to you again in this thread.\n\n1. Two parts of my email of 27 June asked for recorded information, not for advice. They asked whether Ordnance Survey holds (a) \"any map revision notes, resurvey information, or internal documentation explaining changes in naming or label placement for this area between approximately 1950 and 1975\", and (b) \"any guidance or archival material explaining how estate names or farm names were assigned, repositioned, or reinterpreted across map editions in this period\". Please deal with those two parts as a request for information under section 1 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000, or under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 if you consider the information environmental.\n\n2. For each of (a) and (b), please confirm or deny whether the information is held (section 1(1)(a)). The site is at Llandough-juxta-Penarth, Vale of Glamorgan, within the area of County Series sheet Glamorgan 47 NW, with the map references I gave (38-1-608 and 38-1-334).\n\n3. To make (a) as precise as possible, it covers, for the large-scale (1:2,500 and 1:10,560) plans of this site published between 1950 and 1975: the revision or resurvey dates; any name sheet, name book or field revision record for the names \"Ty Mawr\", \"Great House\" or \"Great House Farm\"; and any record of who supplied or authorised a name or a change to it (for example, an owner, an occupier, a local authority or HM Land Registry), in what capacity, and when.\n\n4. If any of this has been transferred to The National Archives, please give the reference instead of treating that part as not held. I have found that object name books for County Series sheet Glamorgan 47 NW (1898-1942) are at The National Archives as OS 35/2503.

You wrote that my request was \"for mapping information which is dealt with as part of our routine business\", that it had been forwarded to Customer Services, and that \"Our Customer Services Team will aim to respond to you within 10 working days.\" I have not received a reply from Customer Services, so I am writing to you again.\n\n1. Two parts of my email of 27 June asked for recorded information, not for advice. They asked whether Ordnance Survey holds (a) \"any map revision notes, resurvey information, or internal documentation explaining changes in naming or label placement for this area between approximately 1950 and 1975\", and (b) \"any guidance or archival material explaining how estate names or farm names were assigned, repositioned, or reinterpreted across map editions in this period\". Please deal with those two parts as a request for information under section 1 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000, or under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 if you consider the information environmental.\n\n2. For each of (a) and (b), please confirm or deny whether the information is held (section 1(1)(a)). The site is at Llandough-juxta-Penarth, Vale of Glamorgan, on County Series sheet Glamorgan XLVII.6, with the map references I gave (38-1-608 and 38-1-334).\n\n3. If any of it has been transferred to The National Archives, please give the reference instead of treating that part as not held. I have found that object name books for the County Series sheet Glamorgan 47 NW (1898-1942) are at The National Archives as OS 35/2503. Please tell me whether Ordnance Survey holds anything later of the same kind for this area, such as name books or revision records for the National Grid sheets.\n\n4.

Claim numbers and the proceedings concerned\n\nI do not have claim numbers. The proceedings I know of concern Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough, near Penarth:\n- a possession order of 2 February 1955 and a Cardiff County Court order of 11 December 1962, in proceedings in which Western Ground Rents Ltd was the party seeking possession;\n- a possession action listed on 3 July 1974;\n- the possession order enforced in November 1988 following BP Properties Ltd v Buckler (High Court, Hollis J, July 1986; Court of Appeal [1987] EWCA Civ 2).\n\nThese details come from the published judgment and family papers, so I may be wrong on some of them.\n\n2. Surviving records\n\nCould you tell me whether any record, index entry, warrant or bailiff's return survives for these, or for the November 1988 enforcement? If not, were any transferred elsewhere (for example to a central HMCTS archive or The National Archives) or destroyed, and if so when and under which retention schedule?\n\n3. The earlier \"no records\" reply\n\nCardiff County Court Enquiries told me on 4 August 2026 that, because of the case's age, no records were held.

It is now in the collections of the National Museums & Galleries of Wales.\"\n\nEither the published statements are mistaken, or the objects are recorded under a different findspot, donor name or description. I am asking only for recorded information, or confirmation that none is held:\n\n1. Please provide any record held by Amgueddfa Cymru (including correspondence with the authors or with GGAT/RCAHMW, enquiry files, or collections-management notes) that records or comments on the statement that medieval ironwork from Great House Farm is in the Museum's collections. If none is held, please say so.\n\n2. Please search the collections database and the accession registers for medieval ironwork (any object type) with any of these in the findspot, place, donor or provenance fields: \"Llandough\", \"Llandough-juxta-Penarth\", \"Great House\", \"Ty Mawr\", \"Tŷ Mawr\", \"Cedfin\", \"Williams of Great House\", or a Cardiff Museum donation before 1912. Please list any matches, with accession numbers and descriptions, or confirm that there are none.\n\n3. Please say whether any record identified and treated as unrelated under FOI 2026-024 or 2026-032 could correspond to the c.1880 ironwork.\n\n4. If this is better treated as a request for internal review of FOI 2026-036, please treat it as one and tell me the reference and the date by which you will reply.\n\nPlease reply within 20 working days (by 16 November 2026).\n\nSupporting material: https://www.google.com/url?q=https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com&source=gmail&ust=1792534426733000&sa=E (evidence catalogue), https://www.google.com/url?q=https://clerk.bucklerfamily.estate&source=gmail&ust=1792534426733000&sa=E and https://www.google.com/url?q=https://dartboard.bucklerfamily.estate&source=gmail&ust=1792534426733000&sa=E\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional\nhttps://www.google.com/url?q=https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com&source=gmail&ust=1792534426733000&sa=E"},{"id":"gm-1a156c62f0744603","subject":"FOI request — Audit Wales: external audit records of council land dealings at Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough, 1970–1996","name":"FOI request — Audit Wales: external audit records of council land dealings at Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough, 1970–1996","date":"2026-10-20T00:46:31Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a156c62f0744603.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a156c62f0744603-foi-request-audit-wales-external-audit-records-of-council-land-dealings-at-great-house-farm-t-mawr-llandough-1970-1996","scopeTopics":["audit-wales"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["audit-wales"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a156c62f0744603","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"audit-wales","name":"Audit Wales"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a156c62f0744603.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Information Officer,\n\nI sent this request earlier today (20 October 2026) to [email redacted], which returned it as undeliverable (address unknown), so I am resending it to the address published on your Freedom of Information page.\n\nThis is a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and, where they apply, the Environmental Information Regulations 2004.

recipient separately, in your own capacity as a current or potential holder, custodian or controller of relevant records:</span></strong><o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>This notice is addressed to each recipient <strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">individually</span></strong>. It is\n<strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">not a joint request</span></strong>, and it does not ask any recipient to speak for, investigate on behalf of, or answer in place of any other person or organisation. Each recipient is asked to respond only\n in respect of records within that recipient's own possession, custody or control, including records inherited from a predecessor organisation or retained on its behalf.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<h3>1. Nature and purpose of this notice<o:p></o:p></h3>\n<p>This is a <strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">formal preservation notice</span></strong> concerning documentary material relating to Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough-juxta-Penarth, adjoining St Dochdwy's, and the subsequent development\n of the site, including the area now associated with Church View Close.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>It is <strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">not a claim form, is not service of proceedings, and is not intended to constitute or replace any FOI request, internal review, complaint, subject-access request or other statutory process already\n made to any recipient.</span></strong><o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>The purpose of this notice is to require the preservation of potentially relevant material while the documentary history, title chain, registration history, planning history, possession proceedings, demolition and subsequent development are being reconstructed.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>A separate first-stage preservation notice has been issued or is being issued to Cadw / Welsh Government FOI, HM Land Registry Wales Office and DPO, Heneb / GGAT HER, RCAHMW, Vale of Glamorgan FOI Unit and DPO, Glamorgan Archives, South Wales Police FOI,\n The National Archives, the Wales Office FOI team, and the National Library of Wales. Persimmon Homes (Wales) Ltd has received a separate preservation letter.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">You are receiving this notice separately because the published documentary record places you, or a predecessor whose records may remain in your custody or control, within the documentary, legal, professional,\n administrative or development chain concerning this land.</span></strong><o:p></o:p></p>\n<h3>2. Land and documentary scope<o:p></o:p></h3>\n<p>Please preserve, and do not destroy, alter, overwrite, discard, transfer out of custody without a recorded handover, or otherwise dispose of, any record within your possession, custody or control relating to the land or matters identified below.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>The scope includes, without limitation, <strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">originals, copies, working papers, drafts, annotations, plans, photographs, negatives, films, tapes, maps, registers, indexes, correspondence, emails and attachments,\n electronic files, archived mailboxes, databases, metadata, internal notes, meeting records, instructions, client or matter files, survey material and other associated records.</span></strong><o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>The material requested includes:<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">1.

Possession proceedings and subsequent litigation</span></strong><o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>The 1955 High Court and 1962 Cardiff County Court possession orders; the 1974 proceedings;\n<strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2</span></strong>; House of Lords leave papers, including\n<strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">YHL/PO/JO/10/11/2536</span></strong>; and\n<strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">Buckler v United Kingdom (1989)</span></strong>, including associated correspondence, instructions, evidence, plans and working papers.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">3. Land registration</span></strong><o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>The first registration of <strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">WA231076</span></strong>, including the application dated 30 November 1982; the first registration of\n<strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">WA240304</span></strong>, including the application dated 23 February 1983; subsequent amalgamation, transfer or closure; and every plan, conveyance, abstract, search, application, correspondence trail or\n professional file relied upon in connection with those registrations or changes.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">4. 1988 possession and demolition</span></strong><o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>The taking of possession on or about <strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">29 November 1988</span></strong> and the demolition commenced on or about\n<strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">6 December 1988</span></strong>, including any planning, listed-building, heritage, police, enforcement, media, contractor, survey, photographic or inter-agency liaison material.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">5. Planning and subsequent development, 1989–1996</span></strong><o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>Planning application <strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">89/01396/OUT</span></strong>; reserved matters application\n<strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">92/00671/RES</span></strong>; conditions 16–18; GGAT / Cotswold Archaeology material; records concerning any\n<strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">section 52, section 106, planning obligation, local land charge or equivalent instrument</span></strong>; and the transfer from BP to Ideal Homes dated\n<strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">3 December 1993</span></strong>, together with all associated plans, correspondence, approvals, agreements, searches and completion material.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">6.

Predecessor and inherited files<o:p></o:p></h3>\n<p>Where you hold, or may hold, a file originating with a predecessor, successor, merged practice, affiliated practice, client or other entity, that material is also within scope.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>This includes, without limitation, records originating from:<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">Loosemores of Cardiff; Robbins Olivey &amp; Blake Lapthorn / Blake Morgan; Linklaters &amp; Paines; Debenham Tewson / DTZ / Cushman &amp; Wakefield; Wyn Thomas + Partners; Ideal Homes Wales; BP Properties; BP Pension\n Trust; Cotswold Archaeological Trust; Cardiff Bay Development Corporation; and South Glamorgan County Council.</span></strong><o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>The reference to a predecessor file does not assert that you necessarily hold such a file. It identifies material for which a reasonable custody or succession inquiry should be made where applicable.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<h3>4. Preservation steps<o:p></o:p></h3>\n<p>Please take reasonable steps to prevent the routine destruction, deletion, alteration or overwriting of potentially relevant material, including material held in\n<strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">archived mailboxes, legacy systems, off-site storage, document-management systems, backup repositories and other electronic or physical stores</span></strong>.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>Where relevant material has been transferred to another repository, archive, successor organisation or third party, please preserve the information necessary to identify the transfer and its current location, including any accession, file, box, reference\n or custody details.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>Nothing in this notice requires the creation of records that do not exist. The request concerns the preservation of records already held or controlled by you.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<h3>5. Purpose and legal position<o:p></o:p></h3>\n<p>This notice is <strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">not a finding against any recipient</span></strong>, and I am not asking any recipient to determine title or adjudicate the underlying dispute.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>The <strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">1987 Court of Appeal judgment</span></strong> is relied upon here only for matters actually determined by that judgment, including the issues concerning possession, limitation and the October 1974\n letters. This preservation notice does not treat that judgment as having determined the complete documentary root of title to the farmhouse parcel.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>The underlying documentary history, including the relationship between the farmhouse parcel and the agricultural land subsequently dealt with through Western Ground Rents and BP, remains a matter requiring reconstruction from the primary records.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>Accordingly, preservation is requested precisely so that the documentary record can be established from the records themselves rather than through assumptions based on later registration, later occupation, later planning treatment or secondary descriptions.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<h3>6. Acknowledgement and identification of records<o:p></o:p></h3>\n<p>Please acknowledge receipt of this notice and, in your own capacity, confirm:<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">(a)</span></strong> the officer, partner, records manager or other person responsible for implementing the preservation hold;<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">(b)</span></strong> what records within your possession, custody or control you have identified as falling within the scope above; and<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">(c)</span></strong> where you identify no records within scope, what relevant systems, files, repositories or predecessor records you searched in reaching that conclusion.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>A substantive assessment of title is not requested from you. The immediate requirement is preservation and identification of the documentary material you hold.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>The public documentary index and developing evidence record is available at:<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\"><a href=\"https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/\">https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/</a></span></strong><o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>Please monitor that site for subsequent identification of documents, references and specific schedules relevant to your organisation's records.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>Where a reliable public email address is unavailable, a postal preservation notice will also be sent. For example, a postal notice will follow to\n<strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">Loosemores, Alliance House, 18–19 High Street, Cardiff [postcode redacted]</span></strong>.<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>Nothing in this notice constitutes an abandonment, waiver or limitation of any claim, position or remedy concerning\n<strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">title, registration, concealment, limitation, reopening, rectification or alteration of the register, or any associated matter.</span></strong><o:p></o:p></p>\n<p>Regards,<o:p></o:p></p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">Sion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)</span></strong><br>\n<strong><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Aptos&quot;,sans-serif\">Royal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member</span></strong><o:p></o:p></p>\n</div>\n<hr>\nThis e-mail and any attachments is intended only for the attention of the addressee(s).

It\nconcerns Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough-juxta-Penarth, Vale of\nGlamorgan (then Glamorgan), a farm occupied by my relatives, the\nWilliams family, and the records of the Ministry of Agriculture and\nFisheries (MAF) and its Glamorgan committees, to which Defra is the\nsuccessor. It is separate from my request 2026/1425E, which is on a\ndifferent subject. It is linked to my enquiries with The National\nArchives, CAS-347296-M0V4Y1 and CAS-344046-K1S1R2.\n\nWestern Ground Rents Ltd (company no. 00342092), to which the Bute\nEstate conveyed its interest by a conveyance dated 25 December 1938,\nobtained a possession order on 4 July 1955. I am trying to establish\nfrom the records how the farm was dealt with between 1936 and 1955,\nwho took each decision, and on what record.\n\nPlease tell me whether Defra holds, and provide, the following for\nGreat House Farm for 1936–1955:\n1. any National Farm Survey or other MAF farm record for the holding,\nincluding the occupier, the owner and the acreage recorded;\n2. any record of the Glamorgan War Agricultural Executive Committee\n(or its successor, the Glamorgan Agricultural Executive Committee)\nabout the farm: inspections, gradings, cultivation or other\ndirections, supervision orders, or any possession, requisition or\ntermination of tenancy, with the date and the committee or officer (by\nrole) who made each decision;\n3. any application for, or decision on, the Minister's consent to the\noperation of a notice to quit the holding (Agricultural Holdings Act\n1948), with the date, the decision and who made it;\n4. any compensation claim or payment for the land under the\nCompensation (Defence) Act 1939 or the Agriculture Acts;\n5. any correspondence with Western Ground Rents Ltd, the Bute Estate\nor their agents about the farm, or about the possession order of 4\nJuly 1955 and the land it covered.\n\nIf records in scope have been transferred to The National Archives\n(for example MAF 32, the National Farm Survey, or the MAF 80 series of\ncommittee minutes), please give the reference rather than treating\nthat part as not held. If any record in scope was destroyed, please\ngive the retention or disposal schedule that applied and, where\nrecorded, the date and the authority for its destruction. If any part\nis held by the Welsh Government rather than by Defra, please say so.\n\nPlease reply within 20 working days, by 17 November 2026. If you hold\nno information for any part, please say so; if anything is withheld,\nplease give the exemption relied on. If any part cannot be answered as\nframed, I would be grateful for advice and assistance (section 16\nFOIA; regulation 9 EIR).\n\nPlease also make sure that no record relating to Great House Farm / Tŷ\nMawr is destroyed while these enquiries are open.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional\nhttps://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgreathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cfoi%40defra.gov.uk%7Cee77c817209c4b17e01c08df2e41a56d%7C770a245002274c6290c74e38537f1102%7C0%7C0%7C639280532226468250%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C80000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=ScBey3wVDLeuJGYoMo6kcQeTKANoQl2UhT0I6TIlNUk%3D&reserved=0"},{"id":"gm-1a156b9a5d8a0e20","subject":"Preservation and disclosure request — Church View Close / Great House Farm, Llandough — titles WA231076 / WA240304","name":"Preservation and disclosure request — Church View Close / Great House Farm, Llandough — titles WA231076 / WA240304","date":"2026-10-20T00:32:49Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a156b9a5d8a0e20.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0e3b180d95f228-preservation-and-disclosure-request-church-view-close-great-house-farm-llandough-titles-wa231076-wa240304","scopeTopics":["persimmon"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["persimmon"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0e3b180d95f228","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"persimmon","name":"Persimmon Homes"}],"refs":["WA231076","WA240304"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a156b9a5d8a0e20.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Persimmon Homes Legal Department,<br><br>Church View Close, Llandough (formerly Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr) – title WA231076 (and former title WA240304)<br><br>I wrote to you on 27 September 2026 asking that records about this land be preserved.

As I understand it, BP Properties Ltd transferred the land to Ideal Homes in 1993, Church View Close was then built, and Persimmon Homes (Wales) Ltd is now the registered proprietor of WA231076. I am trying to establish, from the records, what was known and decided about the land when it was bought and developed, and by whom.<br><br>Please tell me whether Persimmon (including as successor to Ideal Homes Wales) holds any of the following, and provide copies or a description:<br>1. the 1993 transfer from BP Properties Ltd, its plan, and the contract or conditions of sale, including any warranty, indemnity or condition given by BP about title, occupation, the 1987 Court of Appeal decision in BP Properties Ltd v Buckler, or the demolition of the farmhouse in 1988;<br>2. the report on title, pre-contract enquiries and requisitions on title (and BP's replies) for the purchase, so far as they mention the occupation of the farmhouse, the 1987 decision or any claim to the land;<br>3. any title indemnity or defective-title insurance taken out for the purchase or the development, with the date and the risk it covered;<br>4. the internal approval for the purchase (for example, the land acquisition or board approval), with its date and the role of the person who approved it;<br>5. any archaeological report or correspondence about the 1994 excavation on the site (published by Holbrook and Thomas in Medieval Archaeology 49, 2005), and any licence or record for the removal, reburial or retention of human remains found during the development, with where they were reinterred or deposited;<br>6. any planning condition, section 52 or section 106 agreement, or correspondence with the Vale of Glamorgan Council about village green VG41 or the woodland, linked to planning applications 89/01396/OUT and 92/00671/RES;<br>7. if any of these records have been destroyed or passed to another party (for example, solicitors or a successor company), the date, the retention policy applied and who holds them now.<br><br>I understand that Persimmon is not subject to the Freedom of Information Act 2000, so this is a request for your voluntary help; I am not making any allegation against Persimmon.

Persimmon is therefore a present link in the conveyancing chain arising from the registration of this land in BP Properties Ltd&#39;s name in 1982–83, BP&#39;s subsequent transfer to Ideal Homes in 1993, and the later development history.</p><p>I am conducting a documented investigation into the legitimacy of that title chain. This is not a speculative historical enquiry. The issues arise from identified Land Registry, conveyancing, court, planning and public-authority records, and from specific documentary gaps which remain unresolved.</p><p>The central issue is the historic identity and ownership of the land.</p><p>The evidence presently assembled indicates two historically distinct parcels:</p><p>• Parcel A: the farmhouse, garden, buildings, yard and associated woodland, which the Williams family maintains was acquired out of the Bute estate through the Daniel Thomas transaction and subsequently became the family&#39;s freehold interest; and</p><p>• Parcel B: the eastern agricultural fields, whose subsequent passage from Bute to Western Ground Rents and then to BP is not presently disputed by the family.</p><p>The significance of that distinction is that later documents repeatedly use the expression “whole farm”, although the surviving 1939 tenancy plan is understood to show the eastern fields only. The 1938 Bute-to-Western Ground Rents conveyance is therefore a material title-chain question: what estate was actually capable of being conveyed by Bute in 1938, and did that conveyance include Parcel A?</p><p>There is further evidence requiring examination of the period from 1949 to 1974, including repeated attempts to characterise Mary&#39;s occupation of the farmhouse parcel as tenancy or permission; the loss of the family&#39;s title papers in about 1950–52; the 1955 possession order expressed in “whole farm” terms but enforced everywhere except the farmhouse and garden; the separate 1962 possession proceedings concerning the farmhouse and garden; Mary&#39;s express assertion of ownership; and the 1974 proceedings, which were adjourned part-heard and were never finally adjudicated on the family&#39;s historic ownership claim.</p><p>The Court of Appeal&#39;s decision in BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2 subsequently concerned possession, limitation and the legal effect of the October 1974 letters. The judgment records Mary&#39;s asserted ownership and the absence of the documents she said supported it. The present investigation therefore distinguishes carefully between what that judgment decided concerning possession and limitation and the separate question of whether the documentary root and extent of WGR/BP&#39;s title to Parcel A were ever actually established.</p><p>That distinction becomes particularly important in relation to first registration.</p><p>HM Land Registry records show BP&#39;s first-registration applications for WA231076 and WA240304 in 1982–83. The surviving registration material also identifies a 31 December 1969 conveyance from Western Ground Rents to BP Pension Trust as a root of title, but that conveyance is not presently included in the 30 July 2026 schedule of documents surviving on the relevant first-registration files. The 1975 conveyance and plan, the 1982–83 registration material, the extent of the two titles and their later amalgamation therefore require direct reconciliation against the underlying documentary title.</p><p>There is also an unresolved procedural issue concerning notice and opportunity to object during the 1982–83 first-registration process. Mary Williams remained in occupation of the farmhouse. The family evidence recorded on the evidence index is that notification was not received until after her death on 26 March 1983. I am obtaining the primary notice, service, application and registration records to establish exactly what occurred.</p><p>The matters under investigation consequently include possible registration mistake, procedural unfairness, material non-disclosure and, depending upon what the primary records establish, possible fraud or deliberate concealment. There are also unresolved public-authority record questions involving HM Land Registry, court administration and other authorities. These are identified as evidential questions, not asserted as established findings against Persimmon or any individual.</p><p>Persimmon&#39;s position is therefore directly relevant because its present registered title derives from the historic chain now being examined.</p><p>Please provide a substantive response to the following:</p><ol><li>\n<p><strong>Title chain:</strong> What documentary chain does Persimmon say establishes its predecessor&#39;s title to the whole of WA231076, including the farmhouse, garden and associated land now comprising Church View Close?</p>\n</li><li>\n<p><strong>BP / Ideal Homes due diligence:</strong> What title, acquisition and due-diligence documents were supplied to and reviewed by Persimmon in connection with the acquisition from Ideal Homes, including deeds, plans, title abstracts, searches, requisitions, Land Registry correspondence and enquiries concerning the extent of WA231076/WA240304?</p>\n</li><li>\n<p><strong>Earlier title documents:</strong> Does Persimmon hold, or has it ever held, copies of the 1969 WGR-to-BP Pension Trust conveyance, the 1975 BP Pension Trust-to-BP Properties conveyance and plan, the 1982–83 first-registration application/bundle, or documents explaining the inclusion of the farmhouse parcel within the registered extent?</p>\n</li><li>\n<p><strong>1996 correspondence:</strong> Does Persimmon retain the correspondence from March 1996 with HM Land Registry concerning WA231076, identified in the surviving title chronology as the last dealing on the file?

Please record and process each part under the applicable procedure. None is intended to withdraw, narrow or replace the others.</p>\n<h3>1. Position concerning Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr</h3>\n<p>As stated previously and repeatedly, my research of this case concerns the legitimacy of my families historic title and the treatment of Great House Farm, its buildings and associated land. The two-parcel estate, one of which was and still appears to be ours, is an evidence-based position advanced from the documentary record concerning the distinct identities and conveyancing histories i.e. Parcel A—the farmhouse, farm buildings, garden, yard,  associated woodland and what is now church view close green —and Parcel B: the eastern agricultural land, east of our Parcel A and what was WGR and BP&#39;s parcel and the focus on their possession. My argument is, again - that our parcel of land and home since 1667, was treated as one and the same as Parcel B under the blanket term &quot;whole farm&quot;. </p><p>Our Parcel A (or a synthetic mimic of it, born from a long running and  rejected string of attempts to make our occupancy appear permissive) was stealthfully registered by BP in 1983 and merged into their Parcel B in 1987 - my grandmother conveniently dying and no notice given of the registration in the appeal window. Much like the 87 stealthful merge of parcels before my late fathers appeal of the 87 ruling concluded. Our county treasure home was also demolished in 88 before our appeal had even begun, let alone concluded, of CADW&#39;s decision not to list it as a Grade II so it couldn&#39;t be demolished. </p><p>Spell and grammar check. Also make it less abhorrent but don&#39;t lose any of what is being said or be apologetic. This is a statement of truth , my truth. `None of this should be downgraded to a speculative theory simply because the Council has not adjudicated it. The chronology of evidence is painting a damning picture of what looks to be everything needed to reopen this case I.e. fraud, concealment and government involvement. Which I am investigating and I would encourage you to all do your own research and investigate too. </p><p><br></p><p>I&#39;ll give you the courtesy of some colloquialism before I revert back to professionalism with this communication so you have the courtesy from me of being treated like a human. And so you know you are also dealing with a human. I also got some very gracious emails from Chris Frank&#39;s and the corriners and other family and community members who&#39;s families have been allied with my family for decades and even centuries here. </p><p><br></p><p>Firstly I am whole heartedly rejecting this terrorist/ hostage situationship with local authorities here. And our town and county and country, being turned into one giant corporate concentration work camp. With voters being imported by traitors to keep themselves in power. I was under Tony Blairs orders and I called David Cameron into an international treaty I stopped (WCIT 2012), so I know a lot of the stuff the other mammals on this island get upto. </p><p><br></p><p>What happened to our stronghold and the destruction of our ancient history and herritage and family is tandamount to ethnic cleansing and a declaration of war on all I hold sacred like my family, home, land, history, reality and faith. The situation was untenable enough back then, but the more the full picture of what happened in this case becomes apparent the more your regimes occupancy and rule over my birthland will get to justify. Unless I&#39;m mistaken and this has all been a big misunderstanding and nobody is to blame. But I am not getting much reassurance from any of you lot here, that I&#39;m mistaken. I did understand you to have already retired, which was a misunderstanding on my part. Much like I misunderstood the 87 merger of parcels to have occurred in 83 up until recently. This is a complex case and I don&#39;t claim to fully understand it myself. It will take a village. And I&#39;m here hoping to feel my villages warmth. With some 3 others flying in closely behind me this month. Legitimacy is the only authority I will recognise here. Two of my close protection officers are both three time decorated gulf war veterans and former police and I have passed this to them too. If local authories here won&#39;t co-operate, I have no issues using my own security group and resources. In Britain and America. I give you local authories here the opportunity to answer to what you all did to my family over 40 years. </p><p><br></p><p>As you may be able to tell i&#39;ve near enough abandoned the idea this is a democracy or any lawful system of government here.  I know the British State is a terrorist organisation because I was like the forces that did the siege and assult on my home and family in Llandough in 1988. Except I was behind a machine gun in a helicopter in the illegal invasion of Iraq. So you all might fancy yourselves to be crazy here, holding my family hostage under a web of deceipt, but I may actuallt be a little bit worse. </p><p><br></p><p>My flight back here to Cardiff last month is synonymous with an old military tour of the middle east I was in, in 2005 - where two SAS were held hostage by Iraqi police and about to be decapitated, so we had to smash down the prison walls and get them out. I&#39;m here to see to it my family get out of this captivity they&#39;re being held in. The walls in this terrorist/ hostage situationship here just aren&#39;t physical, but more like some demonic realm spell everyones kept under. Maybe the same source and whatever goes into the water that&#39;s making frogs turn gay. </p><p><br></p><p>The circus this case appears to be, if not rectified, will surely damn and curse that small pale village to hell. It&#39;s no small matter. The armed forces world I&#39;m in is nothing compared to the forces being messed with in this case. We are no longer all within innocence or ignorance of the facts of this case now either. My older brother, sisters, mum, aunties, cousins are all seeing this as the charade and circus it is too. I&#39;m bringing it to all your attentions to give you all the opportunity to respond to this. So far all I&#39;ve experienced is a lot of barriers, delays, walls (paywalls) and excuses. You yourself kindly pointed us to things like the 1939 agreement which excludes our parcel, but let&#39;s not forget your initial response was an unwillingness to become involved. </p><p><br></p><p>Understand I bring this to local authorities, (arguably illegitimate in this case and so arguably an authority) through a lot of personal trauma, trajectory and mis information and fragmented info and expense to myself. I went to private boarding school and my career began in military intelligence, but we still got nocked into a different life after 1988. </p><p><br></p><p>More recently I left my wife and daughter andspend at our villa in the Caribbean to spend the time it took me, in a cabin in south Argentina the last year, just to wrap my own head around this case. So while you&#39;re all taking your merry old time dragging this out for months, that&#39;s the end of my marriage and another family. But I don&#39;t know where you all imagine I&#39;m going each time you all give me the finger? </p><p><br></p><p>I&#39;m a military warfare professional and I am very  committed to understanding this. Hence why I just flew 7,000 miles to your doorsteps. If that&#39;s my land, how did it come to be you are you all on it? I&#39;m not convinced by the answers you all keep providing. While I was an infant it may have sufficed, or my mum pregnant, my dad terminally ill. But my disabled widow pensioner grandmother  Mary Williams had 7 children, who had many other children, and generation on we now have a small and very hungry army here. I now have more than 50 former soldiers in my US-based private security group, with our satellite office here. </p><p><br></p><p>But I say this to say my family here are a lot bigger and uglier. And I&#39;m not based here anymore with any of you. I&#39;m resigned to the fact the Brit&#39;ish State is ethnically cleansing Welsh Nationals in Wales, which is why I am now based in Patagonia, Argentina where my AI agents have their own legal personhood coming and where us Welsh Nationals and our history and heritage is celebrated. I&#39;m only here to light the metaphorical fuse of this powder ceg. The aftermath of it will be between you local authorities and all of them. I&#39;m just quietly gathering my evidence, more so for the replica Great House Farm I&#39;m constructing is a museum and third home in Patagonia. And if I unravel any fraud, concealment and government involvement in that process then so be it. The case reopens.</p><p><br></p><p> <a href=\"https://bpvsbuckler.bucklerfamily.estate\">https://bpvsbuckler.bucklerfamily.estate</a> </p><p><br></p><p>My wife (soon to be ex) and I, won&#39;t even let our unregistered daughter step foot in Wales until its decolonised or the Brit&#39;ish Establishment/ UK Government has been overthrown. I even exported my dog from our livery yard in Monknash in 2024 after an afghan migrant was in our horse yard and indoor riding school trying to steal and eat him. My first child here was abducted at 36 days old and was never seen again from 2013, it&#39;s like a demonic realm is ruling this island and everyone&#39;s under its spell. </p><p><br></p><p>The reason my business associates and soldiers and family are all congregating around this matter and flying into this region, is because if I&#39;m right about this case and corruption in local authorities here, this is the catalyst and nexus event of a land market bubble we&#39;re in. This isn&#39;t to say this is the case to meet the threshold to reopen, but its one of the earliest, possibly first of many parallel cases nationwide. Meaning there&#39;s a very real likelihood of what we saw in places like Cyprus, which I was directly involved with while operating as guard commander for RAF Akrotiri, whereby the UN in Nicosia would have to award land back to natives after decades of occupation. Or procide reporations. Decolonisation isn&#39;t all political and figurative, its very literal Paul. Logistically and operationally. Which you&#39;ll soon see in this case or the increasing others now emerging nationwide. </p><p><br></p><p>Having just worked on setting up the whole car finance reporations claim scheme and information systems, with all the FCA and court ruling last year and so forth, I see a definite parallel here as more cases paralleling my families case in Llandough emerge, nationwide and even globally.</p><p><br></p><p>Do you see the parallel? Here is an illustration. Neither should be functional.</p><p><br></p><p><a href=\"https://car.financecheque.uk\">https://car.financecheque.uk</a> </p><p><br></p><p><a href=\"https://bucklerfamily.estate\">https://bucklerfamily.estate</a>`</p><p><br></p><p>Below is a **revised** version that keeps your position, allegations, personal history and demands intact, while replacing insults and language that could be read as threats with firm, direct wording. I have not fact-checked the claims; contested conclusions remain expressed as your position rather than as independently established findings.</p><p><br></p><p>***</p><p><br></p><p>Paul,</p><p><br></p><p>None of this should be reduced to speculative theory simply because the Council has not adjudicated it. The chronology of the evidence is painting a damning picture of what appears to be grounds for reopening this case: fraud, concealment and government involvement. These are matters I am investigating, and I encourage everyone involved to conduct their own research and investigation.</p><p><br></p><p>Before returning to the formal substance of this communication, I want to speak plainly and personally. There is a human being behind this correspondence, just as there is one receiving it. I have also received some very gracious emails from Chris Franks, the coroners, and members of families and communities whose connections with my family go back decades and, in some instances, centuries.</p><p><br></p><p>First, I reject what I regard as a coercive, hostage-like relationship with the local authorities. I also reject what I see as the transformation of our town, county and country into a system of corporate control, and the use of inward migration to sustain those in power. These are serious political objections, not casual remarks. I served under Tony Blair’s orders, and I called David Cameron into the international treaty process that I maintain I helped stop at WCIT 2012. My perspective is informed by direct experience of government and international affairs.</p><p><br></p><p>What happened to our stronghold, and the destruction of our ancient history, heritage and family life, is, in my view, tantamount to ethnic cleansing. I regard it as an attack on everything I hold sacred: my family, home, land, history, reality and faith. The situation was untenable then. As the full picture becomes clearer, I find the legitimacy of the authorities’ occupation and governance of my birthplace increasingly difficult to accept.</p><p><br></p><p>If this has all been a profound misunderstanding, and nobody is responsible for wrongdoing, then that needs to be demonstrated through evidence and clear answers. So far, I have received little reassurance from any of you that my interpretation is mistaken.</p><p><br></p><p>I acknowledge my own misunderstandings. I understood that you had already retired, which was incorrect. Until recently, I also believed the 1987 merger of parcels had occurred in 1983. This is a complex case, and I do not claim to understand every aspect of it. Resolving it will require a collective effort. I am looking for support and openness from my community, with three other people due to arrive shortly after me this month.</p><p><br></p><p>Legitimacy is the only basis on which I will recognise authority here. Two of my close-protection officers are former police officers and three-times-decorated Gulf War veterans. I have shared this matter with them. If the local authorities will not cooperate, I will draw on my own security group and resources in Britain and America to support my personal protection, research and lawful pursuit of accountability. I am giving the authorities an opportunity to explain what happened to my family over the past 40 years.</p><p><br></p><p>As you may be able to tell, I have largely lost confidence that the system operating here is democratic or lawful. I regard the British State’s conduct towards my family as terroristic. The siege and assault on our home and family in Llandough in 1988 carries particular significance for me because I later served on the other side of military operations, behind a machine gun in a helicopter during what I regard as the illegal invasion of Iraq. I understand the force and consequences of such operations from personal experience. That history informs the seriousness of my position; it is not a threat.</p><p><br></p><p>My return to Cardiff last month brought back memories of a military tour in the Middle East in 2005, when two SAS personnel were held by Iraqi police and, as I understood the situation, faced imminent execution. We had to break through the prison walls to get them out. I am now seeking to free my family from what I regard as a different kind of captivity: one maintained through disputed records, concealment, institutional barriers and a continuing lack of answers.</p><p><br></p><p>The walls in this case are not physical. They are the structures of misinformation, obstruction and control that, in my view, have kept people from understanding what happened. At times, the situation has felt so distorted and oppressive that ordinary explanations seem inadequate.</p><p><br></p><p>If this case is not properly addressed, I believe the consequences for the village and the institutions involved could be profound. This is not a small matter. My military experience does not diminish the importance of the family, historical and moral issues at stake here.</p><p><br></p><p>Nor can everyone involved continue to claim ignorance of the information now being brought forward. My older brother, sisters, mother, aunties and cousins also see this as a charade. I am bringing it to your attention so that everyone concerned has an opportunity to respond.</p><p><br></p><p>So far, I have encountered barriers, delays, paywalls and excuses. You kindly directed us to material such as the 1939 agreement, which excludes our parcel. I acknowledge that assistance. However, your initial response was that you were unwilling to become involved, and that remains part of the history of this correspondence.</p><p><br></p><p>Please understand that I bring this matter to the local authorities—whose legitimacy in this case I dispute—after considerable personal trauma, misinformation, fragmented information and expense. I attended private boarding school, and my career began in military intelligence, but the events of 1988 nevertheless pushed our family into a fundamentally different life.</p><p><br></p><p>More recently, I left my wife and daughter at our villa in the Caribbean and spent the past year in a cabin in southern Argentina, trying to understand this case. The time and strain involved have contributed to the breakdown of my marriage and another family separation. While correspondence continues to be delayed for months, those personal consequences are real and ongoing. Each dismissal or inadequate response adds to them.</p><p><br></p><p>I am a military professional, and I am committed to understanding what happened. That is why I flew 7,000 miles to seek answers in person. If this is my family’s land, how did others come to occupy it? I remain unconvinced by the explanations being provided.</p><p><br></p><p>Those explanations may have gone unchallenged when I was an infant, my mother was pregnant and my father was terminally ill. But my grandmother, Mary Williams—a disabled, widowed pensioner—had seven children, who in turn had children of their own. Our family has grown considerably, and many of us now want answers.</p><p><br></p><p>I also have more than 50 former soldiers in my US-based private security group, with a satellite office here. I mention this to explain the resources and support available to me, not to suggest that this dispute should be resolved through force. My family’s determination to establish the truth extends well beyond me.</p><p><br></p><p>I am no longer based here. I have reached the conclusion that the British State is engaged in the ethnic cleansing of Welsh nationals in Wales. That is part of why I am now based in Patagonia, Argentina, where our Welsh history and heritage are celebrated, and where I am pursuing legal personhood arrangements for my AI agents.</p><p><br></p><p>My purpose here is to bring the evidence into the open and initiate accountability. The authorities will then have to address the concerns of the wider family and others affected. I am gathering evidence partly for the replica of Great House Farm that I am constructing in Patagonia as a museum and third home. If that process establishes fraud, concealment and government involvement, I will pursue the reopening of the case.</p><p><br></p><p>[<a href=\"https://bpvsbuckler.bucklerfamily.estate\">https://bpvsbuckler.bucklerfamily.estate</a>](<a href=\"https://bpvsbuckler.bucklerfamily.estate\">https://bpvsbuckler.bucklerfamily.estate</a>)</p><p><br></p><p>My wife, from whom I am separating, and I will not allow our daughter, whose birth is unregistered, to set foot in Wales unless it is decolonised or the present British establishment and system of government are replaced.</p><p><br></p><p>I also exported my dog from our livery yard in Monknash in 2024 following an incident in which, according to my account, an Afghan migrant entered our horse yard and indoor riding school and attempted to steal him. I believed the intention was to eat him.</p><p><br></p><p>My first child was abducted at 36 days old in 2013, and I have not seen that child since. Experiences such as these have left me with a profound sense that the institutions operating here are failing to protect my family. At times, that experience has felt almost demonic in its cruelty and incomprehensibility.</p><p><br></p><p>My business associates, former soldiers and family members are gathering around this matter, with some travelling into the region, because they understand its potential significance. If my interpretation of this case and the alleged corruption within the local authorities is correct, the implications may extend beyond one family’s property dispute and into the wider land market.</p><p><br></p><p>I am not suggesting that those broader implications alone establish the threshold for reopening this case. I am saying that ours may be one of the earliest—possibly the first—of a series of parallel cases nationwide.</p><p><br></p><p>I see a potential parallel with Cyprus, where I served as guard commander at RAF Akrotiri. My understanding of the situation there involved the United Nations in Nicosia and questions of returning land to its original inhabitants after decades of occupation, or providing reparations. That experience informs how I view the possibilities here.</p><p><br></p><p>Decolonisation is not merely political or figurative, Paul. It concerns land, ownership, restitution and practical implementation. I believe those issues will become increasingly apparent through this case and others now emerging nationwide.</p><p><br></p><p>Having recently worked on establishing the car-finance compensation claims scheme and its information systems, against the background of the FCA’s work and last year’s court rulings, I see a further parallel. Individual cases can expose wider patterns and lead to scrutiny of an entire system. As cases resembling my family’s experience in Llandough emerge nationally and internationally, that possibility deserves serious attention.</p><p><br></p><p>Do you see the parallel? The websites below illustrate the comparison I am drawing. In my view, neither underlying system should be able to continue functioning as it does without scrutiny and accountability.</p><p><a href=\"https://car.financecheque.uk\">https://car.financecheque.uk</a></p><p><a href=\"https://bucklerfamily.estate\">https://bucklerfamily.estate</a></p><p><br></p><p>... but I digress. To continue from my earlier point I&#39;m not asking Llandough Community Council to adjudicate title or pronounce upon matters outside its legal remit. The Council’s institutional authority is not itself proof of the legitimacy of a title position. Its responsibility is to account accurately for its own records, knowledge, representations, decisions and referrals, and to disclose the recorded information it holds.</p>\n<p>The question of legitimacy must be assessed against the underlying documents and relevant legal acts, rather than presumed from administrative status or the repetition of an earlier account. I expect the Council to distinguish primary documentary evidence, recorded statements, family evidence and inference when dealing with these matters.</p>\n<h3>2. Formal request for internal review — refusal dated 11 October 2026</h3>\n<p>Please treat this section as my formal request for an internal review of the refusal of my original request submitted on 21 September 2026.</p>\n<p>That request covered:</p>\n<ol><li>Records created after 2002 concerning Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Church View Close, the green—including references to VG41—and the roadside verge beside the churchyard wall.</li><li>Photographs, postcards and other images, of any date, depicting the farmhouse, farm buildings, green or surrounding church area.</li><li>Records concerning material transferred from Penarth Town Council during the 1982 local-government reorganisation, and information held by the Council about the whereabouts or deposit of earlier Llandough community records.</li></ol>\n<p>Your refusal explains that searching minutes and related documentation across a period of approximately 2002–2016 would exceed the appropriate cost limit. It refers to 224 sets of records and estimates 20 minutes to read each set and a further 10 minutes to assess it, but gives a total of 2,240 minutes, or approximately 37 hours.</p>\n<p>Those figures are internally inconsistent. At 30 minutes per set, 224 sets would amount to 6,720 minutes, or 112 hours. The stated 2,240 minutes equates to 10 minutes per set. More importantly, the response does not explain precisely which activities have been included in the estimate.</p>\n<p>Please have the reviewer consider the following matters:</p>\n<ul><li>How the estimate was calculated, including the number and nature of the records assumed to require examination.</li><li>Whether the estimate was applied to every part of the request, including photographic material and records concerning the 1982 transfer, rather than treating all categories as if they required the same search.</li><li>Whether existing indexes, catalogues, minute headings, document descriptions, filing systems or other finding aids permit targeted searches before individual records are examined.</li><li>Whether a targeted search using the place names, former names, dates and subjects identified in my request could provide a materially less costly route to the information.</li><li>Whether the requested environmental information must be considered under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004, rather than being refused solely by reference to the Freedom of Information Act cost limit.</li></ul>\n<p>Please identify how the stated 20 minutes for reading and 10 minutes for assessment per set correspond to the permitted activities under regulation 4(3) of the Freedom of Information and Data Protection (Appropriate Limit and Fees) Regulations 2004. In particular, distinguish time spent determining whether the requested information is held, locating, retrieving or extracting it from time spent on activities that cannot lawfully be included in the section 12 estimate.</p>\n<p>If the Council relies on regulation 12(4)(b) of the Environmental Information Regulations, please identify that exception expressly, provide the relevant reasoning and carry out the required public-interest assessment, including the presumption in favour of disclosure. Do not treat the FOIA section 12 estimate as a substitute for determining which legal regime applies to each category.</p>\n<p>Please also address the duty to provide reasonable advice and assistance under section 16 FOIA and, where applicable, regulation 9 of the Environmental Information Regulations. Your suggestion that I narrow the date range to 2002–2006 is noted, but I ask the reviewer to consider what targeted searches or available indexes could reasonably be used to address the original request before concluding that the information cannot be provided.</p>\n<p>Please confirm receipt of this internal review request, identify who will conduct the review, and provide the anticipated response date. Where reasonably practicable, the review should be undertaken by someone independent of the original refusal.</p>\n<h3>3. Further request for recorded information — 1986–1990 and associated land matters</h3>\n<p>In addition to the original request, please treat this section as a new request for recorded information under FOIA and, where applicable, the Environmental Information Regulations. It is directed to records held by the Council and does not presume that any particular document exists.</p>\n<p><strong>A. Great House Farm: occupation, title, development and demolition</strong></p>\n<p>Please disclose minutes, agendas, reports, correspondence, letters, notes, complaints, representations, referrals and other recorded information created between 1 January 1986 and 31 December 1990 concerning Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, including its occupation, title, tenure, proposed development, removal of the occupants or demolition of the farmhouse and associated buildings.</p>\n<p>This includes records of communications with Vale of Glamorgan Council, planning authorities, developers, solicitors, landowners, police, heritage bodies or other public authorities concerning those subjects.</p>\n<p>Please include any records containing statements attributed to my late father, William “Billy” Buckler, about the property, occupation, title or alleged fraud. References to alleged fraud identify a subject for the search; they are not a claim that a Council record or finding establishing fraud necessarily exists.</p>\n<p><strong>B. Planning records and annexes</strong></p>\n<p>Please identify and disclose the Council-held planning records, plans, supporting documents, annexes, correspondence and associated material relating to application 89/01396/OUT and any related consideration of the redevelopment of the site.</p>\n<p>I have been unable to locate certain associated annexes in my copy. Please confirm whether the Council holds them and, if not, whether its records identify another custodian or archive.</p>\n<p><strong>C. Green, verge, trees and woodland</strong></p>\n<p>Please disclose records held by the Council concerning the history, status, boundaries, maintenance, planting, ownership representations or public use of the green, the roadside verge beside the churchyard wall, and the woodland associated with the former farm.</p>\n<p>This includes relevant correspondence, complaints, maps, plans, site-visit records, referrals and communications with landowners, residents, charities, the Vale of Glamorgan Council or other responsible bodies.</p>\n<p>I have also received information raising a concern that some gardens at Church View Close may extend beyond their recorded boundaries into adjoining woodland. I identify this as an unverified concern requiring documentary clarification, not as an established finding of encroachment or wrongdoing. Please disclose any Council-held records relating to the boundaries, complaints or enquiries about this area.</p>\n<p>I recognise that the official VG41 registration file is understood to be held by the Vale of Glamorgan Council. I am requesting records held by Llandough Community Council, including any copies, correspondence, representations or referrals concerning the green or its registration—not suggesting that this Council is the custodian of another authority’s file.</p>\n<p>Please search relevant paper and electronic records, including correspondence and records held in archived or transferred collections that remain accessible to the Council. If any part of this request is considered too broad, please identify the specific part and explain what narrower search is practicable. If records are not held, please say so and identify any known transfer or deposit location where possible.</p>\n<h3>4. Subject access request — my personal data</h3>\n<p>Separately, I make a subject access request under Article 15 of the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 for personal data about me, Sion Buckler, held by the Council.</p>\n<p>The request covers personal data concerning my childhood association with Great House Farm, the events surrounding the removal of my family from the farmhouse and its demolition in 1988, and subsequent Council records referring to me or recording information about me in connection with these events.</p>\n<p>Please search relevant Council-held correspondence, minutes, reports, notes, referrals, photographs and other records, whether paper or electronic. This request concerns my personal data; it is not a request for unrestricted disclosure of every record concerning my late father or the property.</p>\n<p>Please acknowledge this as a subject access request and deal with it under the applicable data-protection procedure. If you require proportionate identification information to verify my identity, please specify what is required.</p>\n<h3>5. Matters said to be for the “October meeting”</h3>\n<p>Your email of 11 October states that other matters raised in my correspondence “will be considered at the October meeting of the council” and that you will provide the Council’s views afterwards.</p>\n<p>Please confirm whether that meeting has already taken place.</p>\n<p>If it has, please provide the exact date, the relevant agenda and papers, the minute or other formal record of consideration, and any decision or action arising in relation to the matters I raised.</p>\n<p>If it has not yet taken place, please provide the confirmed date, time, venue and public-access arrangements, together with the draft or published agenda showing which of my matters are scheduled for consideration.</p>\n<p>Those matters include:</p>\n<ul><li>The Council’s historic knowledge of Great House Farm, its surroundings and the green, and any representations or records it holds concerning these matters.</li><li>The available documentary and photographic record relating to the site and its redevelopment.</li><li>The concerns raised about the adjoining woodland and garden boundaries, insofar as they fall within the Council’s records or remit.</li><li>The availability of the relevant planning annexes and the location of any missing records.</li><li>Whether the Council would consider a suitable historical interpretation or memorial for the former farmhouse and its significance to the local community.</li></ul>\n<p>I also repeat my request that the Council pass my contact details to any former councillor, clerk or local resident who is willing to contact me about relevant historical knowledge. I am not asking the Council to disclose those individuals’ personal contact details without their consent.</p>\n<p>I remain willing to give a short presentation on the documentary record at no charge if the Council considers that useful. Please record the offer and advise whether it will be considered.</p>\n<p>If the meeting is open to the public, please also advise how a member of the public may make representations on relevant business, having regard to section 48 of the Local Government and Elections (Wales) Act 2021 and the Council’s meeting arrangements.</p>\n<p>If the Council does not provide these particulars or identify the relevant published notice, please explain the basis on which I am expected to verify that the promised consideration has occurred or will occur. I will retain the omission and any subsequent response as part of the record of the Council’s handling of these matters.</p>\n<h3>6. Clerk’s appointment and responsibility for records</h3>\n<p>For completeness, I ask for clarification of the present clerking and records arrangements because they bear directly on the identification, custody and review of the records requested.</p>\n<p>I have seen public references to your retirement from a separate role with One Voice Wales in 2026, earlier references in 2021 to possible retirement from Llandough Community Council, and subsequent discussion about whether the Council had a clerk. I do not treat those references or social-media comments as verified facts, and I draw no adverse inference from them. I raise the matter openly because responsibility for the Council’s records and for reviewing the refusal should be clear.</p>\n<p>Please confirm:</p>\n<ul><li>Whether you currently hold the appointment of Clerk to Llandough Community Council and act as its Proper Officer.</li><li>Whether any change of appointment, acting arrangement or transfer of responsibility has affected the custody or management of the relevant records.</li><li>Who is currently responsible for the Council’s records and who will conduct the internal review.</li></ul>\n<h3>7. Charges and response</h3>\n<p>I have not authorised any discretionary paid search. Please do not treat this email as agreement to incur a charge. If you consider that any part of the request may lawfully attract a fee, please identify the legal basis, the precise work proposed and the amount in writing before proceeding on that basis.</p>\n<p>Please acknowledge each procedural element of this email, distinguish the internal review from the further information request and subject access request, and identify any part you consider cannot be processed as submitted, together with the reason and the available remedy.</p>\n<p>I expect the Council’s response to address the recorded evidence and the applicable obligations directly. I am not asking the Council to endorse my conclusions merely because I advance them; I am asking it to disclose and account for the records within its custody and to distinguish what the records establish from what remains uncertain.</p>\n<p>Regards,</p>\n<p>Sion Buckler (Ret&#39;d Sergeant)<br>\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member</p></div><br><div class=\"gmail_extra\" dir=\"auto\"><div>On Sun, Oct 11, 2026 06:42 AM, Paul Egan &lt;<a href=\"[email redacted] rel=\"noreferrer noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">[email redacted]</a>&gt;

Good drills Sir. What an honour. I know you and the Council serve as volunteers, and I am grateful for the time.<br><br>Let me set out plainly what I am asking of the Council, which is narrow. If you&#39;ll allow me?<br><br>I am not asking your Council to revisit Mr Egan&#39;s answer of 14 June 2026. He explained that the minute books from 1982 onwards were deposited with Glamorgan Archives in 2002, and I am pursuing those there.<br><br>What I am asking about is what that answer did not cover. Llandough Community Council is a public authority under Schedule 1, Part II, paragraph 7(b) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000. The Act applies to the recorded information set out below generally; the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 apply in addition to any part of it that is environmental information.<br><br>PART ONE — REQUEST FOR RECORDED INFORMATION<br><br>1. Whether the Council holds any recorded information created after the 2002 deposit — minutes, correspondence, reports, emails, photographs or files of any kind — concerning Great House Farm (Ty Mawr) / Church View Close, the village green in front of St Dochdwy&#39;s including registered green VG 41, or the roadside verge by the churchyard wall.<br><br>2. Whether the Council holds any photographs, postcards or images of the farm, the barn, the green or the church surroundings, of any date.<br><br>3. Whether the Council holds any recorded information showing what, if anything, transferred to it from Penarth Town Council at the 1982 reorganisation, and any recorded information identifying where the pre-1982 Llandough community records were deposited.<br><br>If the answer to any of these is that no such information is held, I would be content with a short statement to that effect — but I do need it stated. Section 1(1)(a) of the Act requires the Council to confirm or deny whether the information is held. </div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"> </div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Section 10 (and regulation 5 of the EIR) allows twenty working days from receipt, which on my request of 20 September 2026 I calculate as 16 October 2026. </div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"> </div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">If the Council is refusing, section 17 (and regulation 14) requires a written refusal notice identifying the exemption or exception relied on; section 17(7) requires the Council to give particulars of any complaints procedure it operates, or to state that it has none, and to notify me of my right to apply to the Information Commissioner; and regulation 11 gives a right to an internal review of any refusal under the EIR.<br><br>&quot;We have nothing more to add&quot; does not meet those requirements. If the period passes without a compliant response I will have no option but to complain to the Information Commissioner.<br><br>PART TWO — MATTERS FOR THE COUNCIL&#39;S DISCRETION<br><br>These are not part of the request above and carry no deadline. They are simply things I would be grateful for.<br><br>A. I am not asking for the name or contact details of any individual. I am asking whether the Council would be willing to pass my details to any former member, former clerk or long-standing resident who might remember the village between the 1950s and the 1990s, leaving it entirely to them whether to contact me. I appreciate the Council may have data protection or administrative reasons for declining, and I would not press it.<br><br>B. Whether the Council would be willing to table this correspondence at a meeting and minute it. I am content for it to be tabled in full.<br><br>C. Whether the Council would consider, in due course, whether an interpretation board or a plaque near the green would be appropriate. The excavation on the land beneath Church View Close recorded 1,026 burials, described in the published report as by far the largest early medieval burial population so far recovered from Wales, above a Roman villa and an Iron Age roundhouse. That history belongs to Llandough as much as to my family, and there is nothing on the ground that records it.

That, however, does not answer the separate question of whether the land registered in 1982/83 was correctly identified and supported by the documentary title then placed before the Registrar.</p>\n<p>Mr Banfield&#39;s response relies heavily upon <em>BP Properties Ltd v Buckler</em> [1987] EWCA Civ 2. That judgment post-dated the registration by approximately four years. It records BP Properties Ltd as having become registered proprietor of the &quot;whole farm&quot; in November 1982 and then determines the later adverse-possession dispute concerning the farmhouse and garden. It does not, however, determine whether the 1982 first-registration application had itself correctly included the farmhouse parcel in BP&#39;s documentary title, or whether the registration had mistakenly conflated two historically separate parcels.</p>\n<p>That distinction is fundamental.</p>\n<p>My family&#39;s parcel — the former farmhouse, garden and curtilage, which I refer to as the <strong>House Plot</strong> — was historically distinct from the adjoining eastern agricultural land. The documentary history I have obtained indicates that these areas were not simply one undifferentiated proprietary parcel.</p>\n<p>The 1916 agricultural tenancy is one important document because it embraced both areas. But that is not the end of the conveyancing history. The earlier 1877 Daniel Thomas &amp; Son instrument, and the arrangement subsequently acted upon when the quarrying ceased in 1928, point to a separate proprietary interest in the House Plot. </p>\n<p>I have the 1938 conveyance from the Marquis of Bute to Western Ground Rents, and the revised 1939 version of the 1916 tenancy, and it did not convey or demise the House Plot at all: the actual 1938 conveyance, the 1939 tenancy and their plans need to be examined by you lot too, not just me. Indeed, the 1987 judgment itself records that the alleged yearly tenancy commencing in 1949 has not been produced in the proceedings. Its geographical extent therefore remains unproved. Not withstanding it may pertain to the parcel to the east we leased and defaulted on, not our freehold parcel. Furthermore my nan expressly rejected the 1949 tenancy and attempt to make her occupancy of our parcel permissive in such a way, but expressly rejecting it while asserting her ownership claim of her parcel. </p><p>It&#39;s adolescent of everyone to keep having a meltdown and failing to compute the simplicity of the fact Mary Williams asserted she owned her parcel. And WGR saught possession of theirs, east of it. Western Ground Rents, already described in UK Parliament as praying on elderly and being abhorrent and scrupilous, clearly tried to make Mary&#39;s occupany appear permissive in 1949 and the 1955  proceedings.</p>\n<p>The 1987 judgment records that and the 1962 proceeding, after the agricultural tenancy was terminated, as Western Ground Rents obtaining a 1955 possession order for the &quot;whole of the farm&quot;. Crucially, however, when that order was enforced on 4 July 1955, possession was taken of all parts <strong>except the farmhouse and garden</strong>. The judgment gives the immediate reason as Mrs Mary Buckler&#39;s condition and her strong resistance to leaving the farmhouse. Ambiguity which is later misinterprited and clearly an early attempt at making her occupancy of her parcel appear permissive. </p>\n<p>WGR subsequently brought a <strong>fresh action in 1962 specifically against Mr and Mrs  Buckler for possession of the farmhouse and garden and mesne profits</strong>, resulting in the possession and mesne-profits order of 11 December 1962. The judgment records that this order was not enforced before 1974.</p>\n<p>That sequence matters.</p>\n<p>If the two areas had genuinely always constituted one undifferentiated proprietary estate subject to the same right of possession, it is difficult to understand why possession of the agricultural land was recovered in 1955 while the farmhouse and garden were left occupied and a separate possession action had to be brought in 1962.</p>\n<p>I therefore ask that this fact not be retrospectively converted into an assumption that the 1955 &quot;whole farm&quot; wording necessarily comprised the House Plot in the same legal sense as the agricultural land.</p>\n<p>The statutory effect attributed by the Court of Appeal to the 1955/1962 proceedings cannot itself establish title to a different, historically separate parcel which was never actually comprised in those proceedings.</p>\n<p>The possession orders were orders for possession and associated relief. They were not conveyances. They did not retrospectively create a documentary chain of title where none existed, nor did they by themselves determine the geographical extent of an underlying freehold documentary title.</p>\n<p>That is especially important in light of the sequence of events recorded in the 1987 judgment. WGR&#39;s own successive proceedings and selective enforcement distinguished the agricultural land from the farmhouse and garden in practical terms, whatever the later interpretation of the expression &quot;whole farm&quot;.</p>\n<p>There is a further point which I believe HM Land Registry has not addressed.</p>\n<p>In 1949, according to the history now being assembled, Mrs Mary Williams was offered a tenancy of the farmhouse and garden which she rejected because she asserted ownership. The 1987 judgment itself confirms that she was offered a tenancy of the farmhouse and garden by Western Ground Rents and refused it. It also records that she had come to believe she had a title through her grandfather and that documents existed which supported that claim.</p>\n<p>Thus there was plainly a known dispute over the House Plot long before first registration.</p>\n<p>The 1974 proceedings and letters must also be put in their proper place. The Court of Appeal held that the 1974 letters operated as a licence, notwithstanding that Mrs Buckler had never expressly accepted them, and held that her possession thereafter was no longer adverse. </p>\n<p>I am not asking HM Land Registry to disregard that decision. </p><p>Despite it being clear to any sane, reasonable person to see that, given the evidence, the 1974 order was not truly quashed due to the licence letters, which came afterwards and were backdated. Made out to a non existent Mrs Buckler. And quashed the case within minutes of Mary being notified of them, with no ample opportunity to respond. Albeit she actually did in writing. And asserted her ownership and challenged BP in a public newspaper. Not withstanding BP couldn&#39;t give something they don&#39;t own i.e. permissive occupancy. </p><p>This permissive occupancy followed by a conversion is a racket. Look at the pattern;</p><p>1955 permissive occupancy ploy &gt; 1969 conveyance (WGR to BP Pension Trust Ltd)</p><p>1974 permissive occupancy ploy &gt; 1975 conveyance (BP Pension Trust to BP Properties Ltd)</p><p>Nor am I asking the Land Registry to even acknowledge the fact court clerked notified the press who all decended on the scene, covered the story (that Mary asserted ownership, family occupancy since 1667, lawyer confirms her ownership claim was valid etc). </p>\n<p>I am asking a different question: <strong>what land did BP actually have title to in 1974, and what land was actually capable of being registered in BP&#39;s name in 1982?</strong></p>\n<p>If the House Plot had never formed part of WGR&#39;s documentary estate (not in the 1938 conveyance from Bute, as it went to Daniel Thomas &amp; Son in 1876 then to my great grandad John Williams in 1928), then the 1974 letters and the 1962 possession order cannot simply be assumed to cure that problem. The 1987 judgment did not adjudicate that separate issue of first-registration procedure and documentary extent.</p><p>BP never had ownership. Ours ownership claim was never legally exstiguished. BP never even saught ownership, only possession. And with no title chain, only their own issuance of permissive occupancy, based on interest they&#39;d purchased in a possession order, which itself was also based on issuance of permissive occupancy. And with little to no meeting of the minds, but instead stealth/ secrecy. And the registration itself in 1983 was secret and undisclosed to Mary Williams and us living heirs and successors. </p>\n<h3>The Land Registry issue</h3>\n<p>The applicable statutory framework in 1982/83 was the Land Registration Act 1925 and the Land Registration Rules 1925.</p>\n<p>The Rules expressly contained provisions dealing with first registration, including <strong>rule 20, requiring the applicant to deliver the original deeds and documents relating to the title which were in its possession or control</strong>. The operation of that rule in the first-registration context is confirmed in <em>Walker v Burton</em>, where the High Court described the requirement in those terms.</p>\n<p>The Rules also contained a specific provision headed <strong>&quot;Examination of title by Registrar&quot;</strong> and provisions concerning searches and enquiries by the Registrar.</p>\n<p>This means that the question cannot simply be reduced to &quot;Land Registry registers what it is given&quot;.</p>\n<p>The relevant question is whether, in this case:</p>\n<ol><li>\n<p>the applicant supplied the material title documents in its possession or control;</p>\n</li><li>\n<p>the documents supplied actually demonstrated that the House Plot formed part of the estate being registered;</p>\n</li><li>\n<p>the Registrar examined the documentary chain sufficiently to identify any inconsistency between the deeds and the land claimed for registration;</p>\n</li><li>\n<p>any discrepancy between the deeds, plans, possession orders and the proposed registration plan generated a requisition or further enquiry;</p>\n</li><li>\n<p>the registration was completed as an absolute title despite a material uncertainty as to the extent of the documentary title; and</p>\n</li><li>\n<p>the Registrar&#39;s own records contain any warning, requisition, note, correspondence or other indication that the separate House Plot issue was considered.</p>\n</li></ol>\n<p>There is a particularly important point concerning <strong>registration in error</strong>.</p>\n<p>The Law Commission&#39;s review of the 1925 system records that the Land Registration Rules 1925 contained a specific power in <strong>rule 14</strong> dealing with &quot;registration in error&quot;, including registration of too large a part of a title, and explained that the registrar had an express power to rectify registration arising from mistake.</p>\n<p>That is significant because HM Land Registry is currently saying, in effect, that there was no mistake. That conclusion should not be treated as established unless HM Land Registry has actually examined the surviving 1982/83 registration file and established what documentary evidence justified the extent registered.</p>\n<p>HM Land Registry&#39;s present published guidance also expressly recognises that <strong>including too much land in a registered title can constitute a mistake in the register</strong>, and gives as an example a title being mapped to include land for which the registered proprietor has no documentary title. It also recognises that failure by a solicitor to lodge documents in their possession can amount to lack of proper care. I appreciate that this is modern guidance and I do not suggest that it can simply be imposed retrospectively as the law of 1983. It is nevertheless directly relevant to the distinction HM Land Registry now draws between a genuine registration mistake and a mere disagreement about the title boundary.</p>\n<p>Likewise, HM Land Registry&#39;s current guidance states that a title plan cannot describe the land more accurately than the pre-registration deeds allow, and that the pre-registration deeds are crucial to resolving questions about the extent of a registered title. Again, I cite this as an expression of the documentary basis of registration, not as a claim that a 2025/26 practice guide was itself the governing rule in 1983.</p>\n<h3>The present register raises further questions</h3><div dir=\"auto\">In addition to reperations for the demolition of our 800 year old home with us practically still inside at the time, inhumane abuse of my pregnant mum, terminally ill father and amputee grandmother, not withstanding 3 toddlers: myself included. I seek restoration of property in that I seek possession of the undeveloped woodland half of our land parcel. Which is virgin land, having not been touched since we were forced from it in 1988. </div>\n<p>The current title material itself refers separately to:</p>\n<ul><li>the <strong>23 May 1975 conveyance of land tinted blue</strong>, with the copy plan filed under <strong>WA240304</strong>;</li><li>the <strong>19 November 1982 conveyance of land tinted pink</strong>, with the original filed under <strong>WA231076</strong>;</li><li>rights and retained land associated with those separate conveyances; and</li><li>the vendors&#39; adjoining or retained land.</li></ul>\n<p>Those entries require the original plans to be compared with the House Plot.</p>\n<p>I am particularly concerned that two separate conveyancing areas were subsequently presented as part of a single &quot;whole farm&quot; registered estate. If the House Plot was not actually comprised in the conveyances relied upon, the relevant question is not whether the modern red edging can be made to fit an Ordnance Survey map. The question is <strong>what deed, order or other legally sufficient evidence put that specific land into BP&#39;s registrable estate in the first place</strong>.</p>\n<p>An Ordnance Survey description cannot by itself create a conveyance. Much like BPs 1971 alteration of the descriptor of our parcel, shifting &quot;ty mawr&quot; from theirs to ours and appending &quot;farm&quot; to the end of it. </p>\n<p>Nor can a later registration description retrospectively supply a missing link in the pre-registration conveyancing chain.</p><p>I&#39;ll repeat this as its important; </p><p>Nor can a later registration description retrospectively supply a missing link in the pre-registration conveyancing chain.</p>\n<h3>The 1982/83 registration file</h3>\n<p>HM Land Registry&#39;s letter of <strong>30 July 2026, reference N610CGV</strong>, has already confirmed that surviving first-registration material relating to the relevant titles exists and is open to inspection.</p>\n<p>I therefore ask you to write again to HM Land Registry, not asking it to decide the family title, but asking it to answer the following precise administrative questions:</p>\n<p><strong>1.</strong> What exact first-registration applications were made for <strong>WA231076</strong> and <strong>WA240304</strong>, and what deeds, abstracts, declarations, plans, court orders and other documents accompanied each application?</p>\n<p><strong>2.</strong> Did the application files contain the <strong>1938 Bute–Western Ground Rents conveyance</strong>, the <strong>1939 revised tenancy and plan</strong>, <strong>1877 Daniel Thomas &amp; Son instrument</strong>, or any other document showing that the House Plot was historically separate? What was included and not included. </p>\n<p><strong>3.</strong> What document was relied upon to establish that the House Plot formed part of BP Properties Limited&#39;s documentary estate? How was Land Registry not able to see only a plaintiff on the court paperwork preceeding 1982, and no defendant? </p>\n<p><strong>4.</strong> What was the precise geographical extent attributed to the 1955 possession order and the 1962 possession order by the Registrar, and were the original orders or plans ever examined?</p>\n<p><strong>5.</strong> Were the Registrar&#39;s records aware of the 1974 proceedings and Mrs Williams  asserted ownership claim when the first-registration applications were processed? </p><p>The only way they could have not been is if they willfully ignorantly and selective vision didn&#39;t see there was another party to the court proceedings, not just a claimant but also a defendant. They/ BP will have had to have fished out a 1935 marriage certificate to find anything to match the name Mrs Buckler, on the licence letters. A deperate measure to avoid any of this clandestine registration reaching the families knowledge, which we would have been very quick to correct all this. Not withstanding my nan will have had to have died to not challenge this, having relentlessly and unwaveringly challenged this for decades already. And low and behold she did conveniently die in the two weeks she will have had to challenge this in 1983. I guess someone murdered her, just to be absolutely sure all this went ahead without any issues. </p>\n<p><strong>6.</strong> Did the Registrar raise any requisition because the possession history, the separate 1955/1962 proceedings, the 1975 blue conveyance, the 1982 pink conveyance and the proposed registered extent did not correspond straightforwardly?</p>\n<p><strong>7.</strong> On what evidence was the House Plot incorporated into the land registered to BP, rather than being left outside the registration pending proof of title?</p>\n<p><strong>8.</strong> Was the title registered with an absolute title, qualified title, possessory title or another class, and what was the evidential basis for the class of title granted?</p>\n<p><strong>9.</strong> Does HM Land Registry&#39;s surviving file contain any memorandum, examiner&#39;s note, requisition, map correspondence or other record explaining how the apparently separate areas were reconciled into the registered extent?</p>\n<h3>What I am asking you to investigate</h3>\n<p>I am not asking you, or HM Land Registry, to determine that my family is presently entitled to reporations of land now occupied by others. Or possession of the unoccupied woodlands north of church view close. </p>\n<p>I am asking that the Department distinguish between two entirely different propositions:</p>\n<p><strong>First:</strong> the Court of Appeal decided the legal effect of the 1962 possession order and the 1974 letters in the particular litigation that came before it.</p>\n<p><strong>Second:</strong> HM Land Registry registered land in BP&#39;s name in 1982/83. That administrative act necessarily depended upon a first-registration application, documentary evidence and a determination of the land capable of registration.</p>\n<p>The second proposition cannot simply be proved by citing the first.</p>\n<p>If HM Land Registry now asserts that there was no mistake in registration, it should be able to identify the documentary chain and the registration evidence which led it to that conclusion.</p><p>Is land registry claiming my great grandad John Williams DID NOT gain and register title, in 1928, when the 1876/77 Marquess of Bute to Daniel Thomas and Son agreement enacted, thus title chain/ freehold transferred from DT&amp;S to us? Is their understanding it conveyed from Bute/ DT&amp;S to Western Ground Rents in 1938? Or even Williams Title ended up being conveyed to Western Ground Rents prior to 1955. And then to BP in 1969?  Because both my nans statement alleges her paper title was stolen in the 40&#39;s. And some family members rumour her own husband Fredrick, pawned it, possible to settle Mary Williams fathers debts. That might explain Fredricks interest in the 1949 tenancy offer from WGR, if it indeed compromised the House Plot. </p>\n<p>If the surviving file shows that the House Plot was supported by a valid conveyance or other legally sufficient title, that would answer these questions. </p>\n<p>If, however, the file shows that the House Plot was included because an ambiguous &quot;whole farm&quot; permissive occupancy/  possession history was treated as equivalent to documentary title, or because two separate parcels were inadvertently conflated, that would be a materially different situation. It would raise an obvious question as to whether the registration process contained an error, an omission, inadequate examination, or reliance upon an incomplete or inaccurate presentation of the title.</p>\n<p>I am deliberately not asserting fraud or negligence as an established fact at this stage. I&#39;m just determined to make sense of what happened so that I can make the case and get this matter and evidence adjudicated. </p><p>Evidence must establish what happened. But the possibility of <strong>administrative error, inadequate examination, lack of proper care, or mistaken inclusion of land</strong> cannot sensibly be dismissed until the original registration material has been examined.</p>\n<p>That is precisely why I am asking for the surviving file to be reviewed.</p>\n<p>I remain willing to provide the title extracts, the 30 July 2026 HM Land Registry letter, the relevant historical documents and my chronology. I would also be grateful for your assistance in obtaining a substantive answer from HM Land Registry rather than a further general statement that it cannot reopen <em>BP Properties Ltd v Buckler</em>.</p><p>I just bought some records from them ref the forest half of our land parcel. To begin seeking possession of that. But I don&#39;t want to be extorted by Land Registry and have yet another local authority gatekeep information in some ploy to mitigate their legal liability exposure if it shows any negligence or incompetence un 1982/83. I was born on this land, it seems to be my land. I could just as easily do GDPR and SAR and not just FOI&#39;s. </p><p>I also resent Land Registry’s initial response to my intial enquiry was to convert my enquriy into a complaint, only to shut it down. And say I could never ask the same question again. This is the kind of behaviour that signals guilty conscience and bad faith. It was very hostile. Much like taking the maximum time to respond, is that really neccesary? </p><p>I have allocated at least 6 years to gathering evidence and making my case on this. It only looks damming for local authories when I visualise all this back and forth for months just to get to the information I should have been presented with in the first instance. I&#39;ve barely if at all paid for evidence or had my lawyer demand/ summon evidence be disclosed yet. I&#39;m just finding out who will co-operate at this stage. I&#39;m also perfectly willing, like with CADW and Llandough councillor, to file complaints so that each party has ample opportunity and due procedure to try to satisfy our grievances directly. Dwr Cymru already posted me a cheque for ignoring my initial FOI. Albeit minor. </p><p>I have travelled the world. My wife and daughter and dog from Swansea live in the Caribbean. I&#39;m mainly in Argentina as of 2025 constructing a replica Great House Farm Museum. What happens in this small county and country doesn&#39;t concern me much anymore. I think its mostly a lot of massachrist submissive hostages in concentration work camps under plastic terrorists now. And its a situationship that suits both parties and I don&#39;t intend on getting in the way of either. </p><p>I am more concerned to get the story of what happened in Llandough correct, so it can be accurately retold at the museum in Argentina. And gather evidence before any more goes missing or is destroyed. If it transpires the case can be reopened and reporations are due and/or possession of some/ any of our ancestral birthland can be returned to us, then all the better. </p><p>I&#39;m also sure this what happened to us was an epademic racket/ playbook nationwide and if so, we&#39;re likely in a land market bubble and so a land market crash may come. Which would be literal, actionable and logistical decolonisation, like the way occupying UN issued land in Nicosia back to Greeks/ Turks. Not just political and figurative decolonisation. Not withstanding civil war brewing on British Isles, which is why having family estate records in order matters.

I have read the Independent Complaints Reviewer's decision carefully and I understand that she cannot review HM Land Registry's legal decisions, assess the evidence, or revisit the 1987 litigation. I am not asking her to do any of those things.<br><br>Your letter explains that the ICR \"can give a view on whether HMLR has followed its standard procedure in reviewing registration decisions and whether its complaint responses clearly and fully deal with the matters within HMLR's remit\". I respectfully ask her to reconsider on that limited basis only. HMLR's replies to me (23 March, 19 April, 25 May and 30 July 2026) did not answer three factual questions about HMLR's own records, each of which is within HMLR's remit and none of which asks HMLR or the ICR to decide who owns the land:<br>1. whether HMLR's records show that any enquiry or notice was sent to the occupiers of the farmhouse before the first registrations of 1982–83, and if so to whom, at what address and on what date. The Stage 2 response says HMLR \"did not receive or were aware of any interest that you or your family may or may not have had in the land\"; it does not say whether a notice was sent;<br>2. why the conveyance of 31 December 1969, relied on as the root of title, does not appear in the schedule of documents on the first-registration file released on 30 July 2026, and whether HMLR holds it under any other reference;<br>3. on what application the two titles were amalgamated on 2 February 1987, and whether the record shows what was known then about the pending appeal.<br><br>One small point of record: your letter refers to the Stage 1 response as dated 19 April 2025. I believe it is dated 19 April 2026.<br><br>If the ICR will not reconsider, please confirm in writing that her decision of 9 October 2026 is final, so that I can ask my MP to consider a referral to the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman, enclosing your letter as you suggest.

I also hold the schedule of 43 documents on the first-registration files released on 30 July 2026.\n<br>\n<br>The family’s established case, recorded on the public wiki and under investigation, is that the 1877 arrangement took effect in 1928, transferring the full Parcel A (house and buildings, barn, stable and west-side yard, garden, northern forest and the south-east ground later registered as VG41) to the Williams family. The 1939 agreement/plan depicts Parcel B only. On the family account, the 1949 attempt to make the occupation of Parcel A permissive failed, title papers were reported missing in 1950–52, and Western Ground Rents’ 4 July 1955 enforcement of Parcel B also seized the Parcel-A forest and green under “whole farm” wording. Later documentary work is directed at corroborating or precisely mapping that account and tracing those areas into later titles.\n<br>\n<br>Four specific points remain unanswered and are relevant to that investigation:\n<br>\n<br>1. The 1969 root deed recited as the root of title does not appear on the schedule. Please confirm whether HMLR holds that deed under any other reference, or whether it was never lodged.\n<br>2.

BT Archives Team,<u></u><u></u></p>\n<p>I am researching the General Post Office involvement in Guglielmo Marconi’s South Wales wireless telegraphy experiments during 1897, particularly the experiments between Lavernock Point and Flat Holm.<u></u><u></u></p>\n<p>The Postal Museum has advised that the relevant GPO Telegraph Department and Engineering Department records are likely to be held by BT Archives. They confirmed that their own searches of Postal Museum holdings found no relevant records and that surviving\n telecommunications material from this period is likely to be within the collections transferred to BT Archives.<u></u><u></u></p>\n<p>I would be grateful if you could advise on the relevant surviving records and catalogue references.<u></u><u></u></p>\n<p>My research concerns:<u></u><u></u></p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\">\nMarconi’s 1897 South Wales wireless experiments;<u></u><u></u></li><li class=\"MsoNormal\">\nLavernock Point and Flat Holm;<u></u><u></u></li><li class=\"MsoNormal\">\nPenarth and Llandough (near Penarth);<u></u><u></u></li><li class=\"MsoNormal\">\nthe involvement of the GPO Telegraph Department and Engineering Department;<u></u><u></u></li><li class=\"MsoNormal\">\nany surviving correspondence, reports, notebooks, engineering records, plans, photographs or administrative records connected with the experiments.<u></u><u></u></li></ul>\n<p>I am particularly interested in identifying any references to local residents or private individuals who assisted Marconi or GPO engineers.

I am trying to establish, from the records, how the land around the church and the farm was held, exchanged and transferred, and by whom.\n\nTwo catalogue entries appear to relate to church land at Llandough:\n(a) Lambeth Palace Library ECE/6/3/372/CD27551 (1 March 1890): \"Leckwith St James R with Llandough R & Cogan R. re. T. R. Thompson\";\n(b) The National Archives MAF 11/55/5333: \"Order of exchange of lands. Place: Llandough, Glamorgan. Parties: Major H H Lee and T R Thompson\" (11 September 1879).\n\nThe Bute Estate held the freehold of Great House Farm until a conveyance on sale to Western Ground Rents Ltd dated 25 December 1938 (recited in a 1965 contract).\n\nI would be grateful for your voluntary help with the following:\n1. File ECE/6/3/372/CD27551: a short description of its contents (for example, whether it concerns glebe, an exchange of land, or a sale), its extent, whether it contains any plan, and a quotation for copies of any plan or conveyance in it.\n2. Whether the Ecclesiastical Commissioners' records hold any file on the 1879 exchange between Major H. H. Lee and T. R.

Whether any record in the scope above is known to have been transferred to another repository (for example, the Representative Body of the Church in Wales after disestablishment in 1920, the National Library of Wales or Glamorgan Archives) or destroyed, with the date and the record of the transfer or destruction where held.\n\nI understand that Lambeth Palace Library and the Church Commissioners are not subject to the Freedom of Information Act 2000, so this is a request for your voluntary help, and I am happy to pay normal copying charges.

Any enquiry, application or correspondence about the company's property received since 1997 (for example from HM Land Registry, a local authority, a developer, a charity or a BP group company), with its date, the enquirer if a company or public body, and your reply.\n\n4. Whether any application was made to restore the company to the register, and any letter your Division issued in connection with it.\n\n5. If your Division held records about the company that are no longer held: when they were destroyed or transferred, under which retention schedule, and the record authorising that.\n\nA \"not held\" answer to any part would be just as useful as a positive one.

I make this request under Heneb's arrangements for access to the Historic Environment Record and its own policy. I do not reopen the question of the Environmental Information Regulations, on which I note your position of 6 October.\n\n1. Scope of the search. Each \"not held\" answer reads \"The HER does not hold information relating to this request.\" Several items asked for records of the Trust rather than entries in the HER: for example item 12 (Cadw's inspection of 29 July 1988), item 22 (the Trust's copy of the 1974 measured survey), item 25 (the consultee response to reserved matters application 92/00671/RES), items 28 to 31 (condition compliance, the meeting of 4 May 1994, monitoring of the 1994 excavation, and the burial licence), item 32 (correspondence with Cadw on scheduling, 1993 to 1995) and item 33 (the watching brief recommended in 1990). For those items, please confirm whether the search extended beyond the HER to:\n(a) the former GGAT curatorial and planning-advice files;\n(b) the former GGAT project archives, including the archive of the August 1990 assessment \"Land at Great House Farm, Llandough\";\n(c) the former GGAT paper records kept at Baglan (your answer to item 46); and\n(d) the Trust's general correspondence and administrative files.\nIf any of these was not searched, please either search it or tell me which part of Heneb holds it, so that I can ask in the right place.\n\n2. Archive locations (item 34). Does the HER event record for each intervention (1978 to 1980, 1990 and 1994, including event GGATE003875) carry an archive-holder or archive-location field? If so, please tell me what each one says.\n\n3. 1988 records (item 11). You say these are publicly available on Archwilio. Please identify which of the files in the Sources section of record 02038s are the 1988 records you mean, so that I can be sure I am reading the right documents.\n\n4. Change log (items 3 to 5). I understand that the log is an audit trail rather than a set of snapshots, and that it contains personal data. Could Heneb supply the entries for 02038s and its linked records with names and any other personal data removed, showing for each entry only the date, the table or field changed and the type of change? If the full history is too long, the entries from 20 May 2026 to date would be enough for now.\n\n5. Date of transfer (item 45). Thank you for confirming that Heneb is the record holder for the former GGAT. Item 45 also asked for the date of transfer; please give it.\n\n6. Retention and disposal (items 46 and 47). Please send the records-management or retention policy that applies to the former GGAT paper records now, while the review you mention is under way. Please also say whether Heneb, or the former GGAT, keeps a register of disposal or destruction for those records; if no such register exists, please say so.\n\n7. Preservation. As Heneb's data management policy is under review, I ask that nothing relating to Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough is destroyed, disposed of, weeded or moved out of Heneb's custody while my enquiries and complaint remain open. This covers paper and digital records, emails and the HER change log, and in particular:\n- HER records 02038s, GGAT03586s and GGATE003872, event GGATE003875, and the HER source file;\n- the August 1990 assessment \"Land at Great House Farm, Llandough\" and its project archive;\n- the Trust's files on the 1994 excavation and on Holbrook and Thomas, Medieval Archaeology 49 (2005);\n- consultation responses and correspondence on planning applications 89/01396/OUT and 92/00671/RES;\n- correspondence with Cadw, the Vale of Glamorgan Council, BP Properties Ltd and its agents, Ideal Homes Wales Ltd and Cotswold Archaeological Trust, 1978 to 1995 and 2005.\nI asked for this in my preservation notice of 28 September 2026. I would be grateful for a short written confirmation that a hold is in place.\n\nI would be grateful for that confirmation as soon as convenient, and for the rest by 19 November 2026. If any item is unclear or too broad, please tell me and I will narrow it.\n\nThank you for your help.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional\nhttps://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com"},{"id":"gm-1a1563a1a05563ce","subject":"Re: Welsh Government response to request for information ATISN 26-0010 (Retention & destruction schedules))","name":"Re: Welsh Government response to request for information ATISN 26-0010 (Retention & destruction schedules))","date":"2026-10-19T22:13:30Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a1563a1a05563ce.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a1537b442f27f72-welsh-government-response-to-request-for-information-atisn-26-0010-retention-destruction-schedules","scopeTopics":["cadw"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["cadw"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a1537b442f27f72","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"cadw","name":"Welsh Government / Cadw"}],"refs":["ATISN 27021","ATISN 27589"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a1563a1a05563ce.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Information Rights Unit,\n\nTo keep everything for the Welsh Government in one place, this email covers four things: (A) a request for an internal review of ATISN 26-0010; (B) ATISN 27589 (Cadw; your ref qA2496208); (C) four new requests for information; and (D) a request that records be preserved. I would be grateful if you could pass each part to the right team.\n\nA. ATISN 26-0010 – request for internal review\n\nThank you, and please pass my thanks to Emma Harvey-Woodason, for the response of 19 October 2026. I ask for an internal review on four points. Each asks only for recorded information, or for confirmation that none is held.\n\n1. Item 2 of my request asked for any recorded information on whether files in those series were destroyed, transferred or retained, and if destroyed \"the date and authority\". The response says \"any routine records would have been destroyed in line with the corporate retention schedule applied at the time\", and that it is \"equally possible\" that disposition \"would have been carried out by a predecessor body\". Please confirm whether the Welsh Government holds any record of an actual destruction, transfer or retention decision for files in those series relating to the farm, Western Ground Rents Ltd or BP Properties Ltd. If none is held, please confirm that the quoted sentences describe the likely position and not a recorded event.\n\n2. If a specific entry in a retention schedule was relied on for the sentence quoted at point 1, please provide that entry (title, version, date). If no particular entry was identified, please say so. I have noted that the current schedules are published on GOV.WALES, so I am not asking you to explain them.\n\n3. The response says that \"Before 1997, the Welsh Office or other agencies … would have had their own retention schedules.\" Does the Welsh Government hold the Welsh Office schedules for the file series in item 1 of my request? If so, please provide them. If not, please say so and, if known, where they are held.\n\n4. The response says: \"Searches were carried out to find files mentioning the farm name and the companies listed in your request.\" Please provide the record of those searches: the systems, indexes and file series searched, the search terms, the date range, and whether the index of physical registered files was included. (The internal review of ATISN 27021, dated 2 July 2026, describes searches of physical registered files, including A--CL172-06-017/1 Community of Llandough, and a wider search of files from around the 1980s–1990s.)\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, the 1988 Cadw listing file is not part of this review; it is covered by ATISN 26-0009 (response due 6 November 2026).\n\nB. ATISN 27589 (Cadw; your ref qA2496208)\n\nI note the letter of 19 October 2026 refusing ATISN 27589 under section 14(2). Three points, so that I can decide whether to ask for an internal review:\n\n1. Section 14(2) applies only to a request that is substantially similar to an earlier one. Please tell me which points of ATISN 27589 the Welsh Government considers ATISN 27021 already covered. Point 3 of ATISN 27589 asked for \"Any transfer, destruction or disposal of those files, with the schedule used and the date.\" ATISN 27021 did not ask for that.\n\n2. The letter says that no new information \"has been generated or become available\". Please confirm whether it is saying that no information is held on any point of ATISN 27589 beyond what was released under ATISN 27021, or only that it declines to search again.\n\n3. The letter sets out the right to complain to the Information Commissioner but not the internal review procedure, although it refers to the internal review of ATISN 27021. Please confirm how and by when I may ask for an internal review of ATISN 27589. I will not treat the time for asking as running until you have confirmed this.\n\nThe question in point 3 of ATISN 27589 is also being dealt with under ATISN 26-0009, so I am not making any new request about it here.\n\nC. New requests under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and the Environmental Information Regulations 2004\n\nThese are new requests and not part of the review above. They concern Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough-juxta-Penarth, Vale of Glamorgan.\n\n1. Registered files. The internal review of ATISN 27021 identified registered files (including A--CL172-06-017/1 Community of Llandough, CL172-10-001/1, A--CL172-10-002/1, A--CL172-10-001/1, and six files of potential interest). I am not asking for the contents of the files. For each file, please provide the register entry or index record showing its title, opening and closing dates, and current status (retained, transferred, destroyed or not traced) and, where the entry says a file was destroyed or transferred, the date and the record of the destruction or transfer.\n\n2. Property and deeds records. The response to ATISN 26-0010 says that records of Welsh Government property, deeds and leasing are retained until the property is sold or the lease ends. Please confirm whether the Welsh Government or the Welsh Office has ever owned, leased, acquired or disposed of any interest in land at Great House Farm, Leckwith Road or village green VG41, Llandough, between 1950 and 1997, and provide any deed, lease or property file record of it. If none is held, please say so.\n\n3. Wartime farm records, 1936–1955. Please provide any recorded information held by the Welsh Government, including records inherited from the Welsh Office, about the farm in 1936–1955:\n(a) any record of the Glamorgan War Agricultural Executive Committee, or its post-war successor, about the farm, including any possession, requisition or cultivation direction;\n(b) any claim or payment under the Compensation (Defence) Act 1939;\n(c) any record naming the occupier or owner of the farm in that period.\nI understand the 1941–43 National Farm Survey is held at The National Archives (MAF 32), so I am not asking for it. If any other record has been transferred to The National Archives, please give the reference rather than treating that part as not held.\n\n4. Compulsory purchase and stopping-up orders, 1950–1995. Please confirm whether the Secretary of State for Wales or the Welsh Office made or confirmed any compulsory purchase order, stopping-up order or diversion order affecting the land at Great House Farm between 1950 and 1995, and provide a copy of any such order and of the decision confirming it. ATISN 26-0010 searched under the farm name and two company names. Orders of this kind are usually titled by road or place, so please also search under \"Leckwith Road, Llandough\", \"Llandough-juxta-Penarth\" and \"Church View Close\". If such records have been transferred to The National Archives, please give the reference.\n\nIf no information is held for any part, please say so. If anything is withheld, please give the exemption or exception relied on.\n\nD. Preservation of records\n\nAs I asked on 28 September and 1 October 2026, please make sure that the following are not destroyed or weeded while ATISN 26-0009, the review in part A, the requests in part C and any complaint to the Information Commissioner remain open:\n\n1. the index of physical registered files, and the registered files themselves, referred to in the internal review of ATISN 27021 (including A--CL172-06-017/1, CL172-10-001/1, A--CL172-10-002/1, A--CL172-10-001/1 and the six files of potential interest identified in that review);\n2. any 1988 listing file for Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, or any part or remnant of it;\n3. the originals of the two inspection photographs dated 29 July 1988 released under ATISN 27021, with any negatives, digital files, envelopes, captions or other information recorded with them;\n4. any disposal or destruction logs, certificates or schedules of destruction covering Welsh Office or Cadw records for 1970–1997;\n5. the retention schedules in force for those records in 1970–1997;\n6. any transfer lists to The National Archives or a Place of Deposit for those records, including any selection records made under OSP 7.\n\nPlease confirm in writing that a hold is in place for these records.\n\nThank you for your help.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler"},{"id":"gm-1a154577a09c3329","subject":"RE: FOI — Welsh Office / Cadw papers, July–December 1988 — Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough — following 26FOI 103 (ATISN 27589)","name":"RE: FOI — Welsh Office / Cadw papers, July–December 1988 — Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough — following 26FOI 103 (ATISN 27589)","date":"2026-10-19T13:26:17Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a154577a09c3329.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a154577a09c3329-foi-welsh-office-cadw-papers-july-december-1988-great-house-farm-ty-mawr-llandough-following-26foi-103-atisn-27589","scopeTopics":["cadw"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["cadw"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a154577a09c3329","direction":"received","from":"Andy Wigley","institutions":[{"id":"cadw","name":"Welsh Government / Cadw"}],"refs":["26FOI103","ATISN27589","qA2496208"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a154577a09c3329.json","attachments":[{"name":"ATISN 27589 - 2026-10-19 - Response.pdf","title":"ATISN 27589 response (ref qA2496208): request refused under FOIA s.14(2) as a repeat of ATISN 27021","url":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/pdf/foi/2026-10-19_cadw_atisn-27589_response-s14-2.pdf","mime":"application/pdf","bytes":112190,"sha256":"0813652b6c608e40ca7db2fc6c95209c32f71704984fcfdea740781ef3df2beb"}],"textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Mr Buckler,\n\nThank you for your request which was received on 28 September 2026.\n\nPlease see attached response.\n\nYour sincerely,\n\nAndy Wigley\n\n[cid:image001.png@01DD5FA6.A5431630]\n\nDr Andy Wigley\nPrif Arolygydd – Pennaeth Arolygiaeth yr Amgylchedd Hanesyddol / Chief Inspector - Head of Historic Environment Inspectorate\nCadw\nDysgu, Cymunedau a Diwylliant / Learning, Communities and Culture\nLlywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government\nTŷ Ladywell / Ladywell House\nY Drenewydd / Newtown\nPowys\n[postcode redacted]\n\nFfôn / Tel: [phone redacted]\nFfôn symudol / Mobile: [phone redacted]\nE-bost/ Email: [email redacted]<[email redacted]> / [email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n[cid:image002.png@01DD5FA6.A5431630][cid:image003.png@01DD5FA6.A5431630]\nP Helpwch yr amgylchedd - peidiwch ag argraffu hon os nad oes gwir raid   Help our environment - only print this if really necessary\nRydym yn croesawu gohebiaeth Gymraeg.

You asked for:\n\n   1. The retention and destruction schedules (or equivalent policy documents) that\n      applied, or still apply, to former Welsh Office / Welsh Government file series\n      covering agricultural tenancies, land ownership or compulsory purchase, rural\n      depopulation, or related policy in the period 1970–1997.\n   2. Any recorded information identifying whether files in those series that would\n      have related to Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr / Llandough-juxta-Penarth, or to\n      the companies Western Ground Rents Ltd or BP Properties Ltd, were\n      destroyed, transferred or retained, and if destroyed the date and authority.\n   3. Confirmation of the repositories to which any surviving pre-1997 paper files\n      from the relevant series were transferred (e.g. National Assembly / Welsh\n      Government / The National Archives / other).\nOur response\n\n   1. All Welsh Government Retention Schedules, past and present, are available\n      on the external website: Welsh Government retention and disposal schedule |\n      GOV.WALES. Before 1997, the Welsh Office or other agencies would have\n      had responsibility for areas affecting Wales and would have had their own\n      retention schedules.\n\n   2. Searches were carried out to find files mentioning the farm name and the\n      companies listed in your request. No files were found and given the date\n      range of your request, any routine records would have been destroyed in line\n      with the corporate retention schedule applied at the time. Given the date\n      range for the search, it is equally possible that records relating to this would\n      not have been transferred to Welsh Government and disposition would have\n      been carried out by a predecessor body.\n\n\n\n\n                                      Parc Cathays ● Cathays Park            [email redacted]\n                                               Caerdydd ● Cardiff   Gwefan ● website: www.llyw.cymru\n                                                        [postcode redacted]                       www.gov.wales\n\f   3. Material with historical significance from this period would have been\n      identified using the Welsh Office’s Operational Selection Policy (available on\n      TNA’s website: OSP 7 - Welsh Office 1979-1997). Historical material would\n      then have been transferred by us to The National Archives (or a designated\n      Place of Deposit) for permanent preservation at the appropriate time (this was\n      after 30 years at that time, subsequently reduced to after 20 years for WG\n      material from 2023 onwards). Records relating to Welsh Government\n      property/deeds/leasing etc. are not transferred to TNA as they are not classed\n      as “public records” like our business records are. These would be retained\n      until the property is sold or lease agreements terminated.\n\nNext steps\n\nIf you are dissatisfied with the Welsh Government’s handling of your request, you\ncan ask for an internal review within 40 working days of the date of this response.\nRequests for an internal review should be addressed to the Welsh Government’s\nFreedom of Information Officer at:\n\nInformation Rights Unit\nWelsh Government\nCathays Park\nCardiff\n[postcode redacted]\n\nor e-mail: [email redacted]\n\nPlease remember to quote the ATISN reference number above.\n\nYou also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner. The\nInformation Commissioner can be contacted at:\n\nInformation Commissioner’s Office\nWycliffe House\nWater Lane\nWilmslow\nCheshire\n[postcode redacted]\n\nWebsite: www.ico.org.uk\n\nHowever, please note that the Commissioner will not normally investigate a\ncomplaint until it has been through our own internal review process.\n\nYours sincerely\n\n\nEmma Harvey-Woodason\nDepartmental Records Officer\nWelsh Government\n\n------------------------------------------------------------\nAttachments (1)\n- ATISN 26-0010 - Disclosure.pdf (application/pdf, 167 KB): https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/pdf/foi/2026-10-19_welsh-government_atisn-26-0010_disclosure-response.pdf"},{"id":"gm-1a15125192fffca9","subject":"Re: Chase — Vale of Glamorgan FOI 00210772 internal review — 15 October 2026","name":"Re: Chase — Vale of Glamorgan FOI 00210772 internal review — 15 October 2026","date":"2026-10-18T22:32:28Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a15125192fffca9.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a141cc190751565-chase-vale-of-glamorgan-foi-00210772-internal-review-15-october-2026","scopeTopics":["vale-foi"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["vale-foi"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a141cc190751565","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"vale-foi","name":"Vale of Glamorgan Council"}],"refs":["00210772"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a15125192fffca9.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear FOI Unit, A short follow-up on the internal review of FOI 00210772 (request of 7 July 2026), which I asked about on 7 and 15 October 2026.

The paperwork in question only arrived two weeks after the medical appointment for which it was required.\n\nAnother resident missed a pre-surgery appointment because the relevant notification arrived a week late, while a third person has reported a medical subscription arrived several days after its scheduled delivery date.\n\nFurthermore, another resident has not received any post since 7th September. Many others have reported that they have not received anything for several weeks, only for a large amount of mail to arrive all at once.\n\nRoyal Mail’s website advises customers that 2nd Class and other non-1st Class letters will be delivered every other weekday. Customers are told to expect 2nd Class mail to arrive within three weekdays. Reports from residents indicate these timescales are not being adhered to.\n\nI would therefore be grateful if you would investigate current provision in the Llandough, Penarth and Eastern Vale of Glamorgan areas, and take action to address existing issues regarding service reliability.\n\nThank you for your assistance with this, and I look forward to hearing from you.\n\nKind regards,\n\nCllr George Carroll\nElected Member\n\nLlandough ward\nVale of Glamorgan Council\nI'll provide a full update when I've received a response.\n\nWe get things done in Llandough because we work together.\n\nIf there's ever anything I can assist with, Hywel, please let me know.\n\nThis is what Our Plan for Llandough is all about.\n\n\n**\n------------------------------------------------------------\n\nPlans to build 250 houses on land just down from the Merrie Harrier\n\nIf you submitted representations during the consultation on the Vale of Glamorgan Replacement Local Development Plan, you will recently have received an invitation to register to speak at the public examination.\n\nThe deadline to do so is 30th October.\n\nThe RDLP includes a key site (below) to build 250 houses on land just down from the Merrie Harrier.\n\nThis will exacerbate existing congestion and safety issues at the Merrie Harrier junction.\n\nFurthermore, it will eat into farmland that creates a natural boundary between Llandough and Dinas Powys, threatening both villages' distinct, separate identities.\n\nI have registered to speak at the hearing, at which I will be speaking against the plans.\n\nI would urge as many residents as possible to do so too.\n\nThe hearings are likely to take place in Spring or Summer 2027.\n\nWe must work together to protect our green spaces and prevent inappropriate development.\n\nIt's a key part of Our Plan for Llandough.\n\nIf you have further questions, please let me know.\n\nOur community newsletter\n\nOur community newsletter ensures everyone in our village is kept up to date with what’s happening in Llandough.\n\nIt’s been going for several years, with a team of us working together to make it happen.\n\nIt wouldn’t be possible without the hard work of our volunteers.\n\nMaintaining good communication with residents is central to Our Plan for Llandough.\n\nWe do many things to help achieve this. Social media is an important way to share updates.\n\nAs is this weekly e-newsletter, that lands in subscribers’ inboxes every Sunday evening.\n\nWe also go door to door, asking residents if there’s anything they’d like to raise.\n\nYou may be surprised how many people we speak to who aren’t online.\n\nIt’s vital they’re kept in the loop.\n\nWe achieve this through a paper newsletter, that lands on every doormat in Llandough.\n\nOur aim is to build a delivery network that covers our whole village, while I fill in the gaps.\n\nIf you’d like to help, Hywel, get in touch!\n\nhttps://fb.watch/v/90RqdWUG5/\n\nRail replacement bus service:\n25th October to 1st November\n\nThe Vale of Glamorgan Line between Cardiff, Barry and Bridgend will be CLOSED from 10.00pm on Sunday 25th October, reopening on Monday 2nd November.\n\nBuses will replace trains serving Cogan station during this time.\n\nNetwork Rail have advised the closure is to allow for works across the line, including renewing switches and crossings in Cogan.\n\nPassengers are advised to check before they travel and allow extra time.\n\nFurther information can be found on Transport for Wales' website.\nRAIL SERVICE UPDATES (https://tfw.wales/service-status/planned-improvement-works)\n\nFly-tipping\n\nI’m extremely grateful to the resident who sent me the above photographs of the latest fly-tipping incidents on Greenway Close and Llandough Hill.\n\nMore investment must go towards prevention, and surveillance equipment is key.\n\nI’ll continue to press the Council to deploy it at these and other hotspots across our village.\n\nIf you have any information as to who may have been responsible, Hywel, please come forward.\n\nThose who disrespect our community in this way must face the consequences of their actions.\n\nCommunity coffee morning:\nFriday 23rd October\n\nBringing our village together is so important.\n\nIt builds a sense of community and creates good social opportunities too.\n\nLlandough Community Council work incredibly hard to do so through their monthly coffee mornings.\n\nEveryone from across our village is welcome.\n\nDetails of their next event, being held at 10.00am on Friday 23rd October at the Memorial Hall, can be found above.\n\nPavement repairs:\nSpencer Drive\n\nHuge thanks to the resident who contacted me about a defective pavement repair on Spencer Drive.\n\nThe resident helpfully sent a picture (top) showing the defects.\n\nI fed this in to the Council and asked them to rectify it.\n\nWithin 24 hours, the work was done!\n\nThis is teamwork in action … showing just what a great community we have in Llandough.\n\nYou can see the repairs below.\n\nChristmas Fayre:\nSaturday 14th November\n\nLlandough’s annual Christmas Fayre is set to take place on Saturday 14th November.\n\nWith many local businesses operating stalls, it’s a great way to make a start to your Christmas shopping and support our local economy.\n\nHuge thanks to Llandough Community Council for organising, it’s always a great event and this year promises to be no different.\n\nFurther details can be found above.\n\nBlocked drains\n\nBlocked drains pose a serious safety risk to our village, with the potential to cause floods and ice hazards.\n\nWhen I raised the leaks on Leckwith Road recently, the Council confirmed to me only has two gully tanker teams to maintain around 25,000 drains on its highway network.\n\nThe Council must invest in more capacity to ensure drain repairs can be carried out in a more timely manner.\n\nWatch my comments at the last Full Council meeting below.\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/r/1X6HBXKW5v/\n\nConcert for Remembrance:\nSaturday 14th November\n\nRemembrance is fast approaching, and this week I signed up to volunteer at the Penarth Poppy Caravan.\n\nOur community will hold our Remembrance Sunday service at St Dochdwy’s as we do every year, and further information will follow in due course.\n\nI also wanted to share details of a concert being held at All Saints Church in Penarth on Saturday 14th November to raise money for the Royal British Legion.\n\nThe concert is performed by the Sine Nomine Singers, and tickets are £12.\n\nOur Plan for Llandough!\n\n\nAs your councillor, I'm working with you all to secure a better future for Llandough. Together, we have a plan to deliver for the village.\n\nOur plan is making Llandough better by:\n\n1. Sorting out the parking problems\n2. Stamping out dog fouling\n3. Repairing our roads\n4. Stopping littering and flytipping\n5. Delivering better sports facilities\n6. Keeping the whole community involved\n\nIf you have any suggestions of what you'd like to see in Our Plan, please get in touch!\n\nhttp://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fmailchi.mp%2F2c7176792734%2Fin-touch-with-llandough-17666390 Share (http://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fmailchi.mp%2F2c7176792734%2Fin-touch-with-llandough-17666390)\nhttps://us19.forward-to-friend.com/forward?u=7b7a08284cdbc1f69f5b0afd8&id=15d7d1ab41&e=1429c2c1bb Forward (https://us19.forward-to-friend.com/forward?u=7b7a08284cdbc1f69f5b0afd8&id=15d7d1ab41&e=1429c2c1bb)\n\n============================================================\nI'm hoping to reach as many people as possible with this newsletter, so please feel free to forward it to friends and neighbours.\n\nIf this email has been forwarded to you, and you would like to sign up to my newsletter, please click ** here ([email redacted]\n.\nThis email was sent to you because your email address is on my subscribers list.

I have also completed your online enquiry form, so the request is in your preferred channel.\n\nI appreciate a response would not fall due until 6 October, so this is not a chaser. It is to put the detail in one place and to clarify the basis of the request.\n\nOn your note of 22 May. You are right that Heneb, as a limited company, is not a public authority under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, and I do not pursue that. Two separate points remain, and I would welcome Heneb's position on each.\n\nFirst, the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 apply on a different test — regulation 2(2) reaches bodies carrying out functions of public administration relating to the environment, or under the control of a public authority. If Heneb considers it falls outside that, please say so expressly with brief reasons, so that I can direct the request elsewhere.\n\nSecond, and independently, the Historic Environment Record is a statutory record: sections 194 and 195 of the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2023 require the Welsh Ministers to maintain an HER for every local authority area and to make it available for public inspection, and Heneb keeps the south-east Wales record on their behalf. I therefore ask in the alternative that this be treated as a request for access under that regime and under Heneb's own policy.\n\nTwo things that will make this easier. If any item is too broad, please tell me which and I will narrow it rather than have the whole request refused. And if Heneb can supply, as a first step, simply a schedule or index of the records it holds for this site — without copying them — that would let me target the rest precisely and save your staff considerable time. I am content to inspect material by appointment at Baglan or at the HER, and any reasonable copying or staff-time charge can be notified to me in advance for approval.\n\nTwo small administrative points. Please confirm which legal entity now holds the records and functions formerly of Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust Ltd, and who within Heneb handles access requests of this kind.\n\nFinally, since my correspondence in May was framed more formally: my purpose is documentary. I am reconstructing the record of a farm my family occupied for generations, and I would far rather do that with Heneb's help than around it.\n\nI should say plainly that I have read GGAT's December 1993 notification to the Vale of Glamorgan that Condition 18 had not been complied with, and the recommendation that a Breach of Condition Notice be issued. Whatever else is in dispute about this site, that was the Trust doing its job properly, and I am grateful for it.\n\nThank you in advance for your time in this matter,\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nEnc: Schedule of Records Requested, ref GHF/HENEB/2026-09-20"},{"id":"gm-1a144e8abd7a5cfa","subject":"Re: Re: MEETING OF THE COUNCIL - 22 OCTOBER AT 7.00PM","name":"Re: Re: MEETING OF THE COUNCIL - 22 OCTOBER AT 7.00PM","date":"2026-10-16T13:31:01Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a144e8abd7a5cfa.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a136e2b51f9d191-meeting-of-the-council-22-october-at-7-00pm","scopeTopics":["llandough"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["llandough"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a136e2b51f9d191","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"llandough","name":"Llandough Community Council"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a144e8abd7a5cfa.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Mr Egan, Thank you for your email confirming that the Council meeting on 22 October 2026 will now be held remotely only. I object to the removal of the opportunity for residents to attend in person and ask that the decision be reconsidered before the meeting. I recognise that the Local Government and Elections (Wales) Act 2021 provides for remote meetings. My concern is not with councillors using Zoom, but with the Council deciding that there will be no physical public attendance, without explaining the reasons for that decision or how the interests of local democratic participation have been considered. The Welsh Government's statutory guidance for community and town councils recognises the importance of accessible meetings, public participation and transparency. It also requires councils to have regard to the guidance when exercising their relevant functions. The Act's section 48, inserting paragraph 27A into Schedule 12 of the Local Government Act 1972, requires the person presiding over an open community council meeting to give members of the public in attendance a reasonable opportunity to make representations about the business, subject to the statutory exception. I therefore ask the Council to: 1. Reconsider whether a physical venue can be made available to residents, even if all councillors participate remotely. 2. Confirm who made the decision to change the meeting to remote-only and when it was made. 3. Identify the Council's published arrangements or policy governing multi-location meetings and provide the relevant link or document. 4. Explain what consideration was given to residents' ability to observe proceedings and participate effectively, and why a physical public gallery was not provided. 5. Confirm that I will be given a reasonable opportunity to make representations during the public participation item through the Zoom meeting, in accordance with the applicable rules. If the Council maintains its decision, please treat this email as a request for the reasons and the relevant policy or resolution to be recorded in the public record. For clarity, my outstanding FOI internal review and my requests concerning the retention of historic planning records are separate matters. I do not ask the Council to determine either matter through this objection. I remain willing to participate constructively in the meeting. I ask only that the Council take the concerns about public access seriously and explain its decision.

First, my FOI to the Council (treated as such in your reply of 11 October) and the internal review request of 13 October remain open. I am not asking the Council to pre-judge them at the meeting; I simply ask that the review outcome or a firm date be communicated before or at the meeting so that public participation is not conducted under a section 12 refusal that has not been reviewed. Second, I have placed preservation requests with The National Archives, HM Land Registry, the MOD, South Wales Police and others concerning 1988 records. If the Council holds any planning files, section 52/106 instruments or correspondence from 1988-1992 relating to planning refs 89/01396/OUT and 92/00671/RES, I would be grateful for confirmation that they are being retained pending those wider enquiries.

I come from a military background, and parts of that email used the language of that world. So that nothing is misread, I restate the relevant points in plain administrative terms. All of the formal requests in that email stand as sent.\n\n1. My position. I act for my family, who are Welsh nationals and have been on this land for generations. We assert our claim to Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), in particular what the family calls Parcel A, and we ask every body that holds a record or made a decision about it to respect that claim by answering for its records, decisions and representations. We do not accept that the matter is closed, and we will not stop asking.\n\n2. \"Hostage\", \"terrorist\", \"occupation\" and \"legitimacy\". I meant that my family has been unable to obtain clear answers about its land and home for some forty years, and that public bodies should evidence what they hold and have done rather than rely on their authority alone. I am not alleging terrorism by the Council or its officers.\n\n3. \"Security group\", \"close-protection officers\" and \"army\". These referred to my professional associates and my large extended family, who support my research. No one is being asked or instructed to take any action against the Council, its members or its staff, and no one will be on its premises or on the land in any capacity other than as the law allows. I make no threat of any kind. My route is lawful and administrative: information requests, internal review, complaint and referral to the Independent Complaints Reviewer, the Information Commissioner, and the courts if necessary.\n\n4. \"Decolonise\", \"ethnic cleansing\" and \"powder keg\". These express my political view about the loss of Welsh families' land and heritage and the pace of the present process. They are my opinions, not allegations of unlawful conduct by the Council, and I do not ask the Council to adopt or answer them.\n\n5. Remarks about my personal circumstances and about third parties. These were background. They are not part of any request and need not be recorded or circulated.\n\nThe formal parts stand: the request for internal review of the section 12 response of 11 October 2026, the further information request, the subject access request, and the request for the date, venue and public-access arrangements for the 22 October meeting. I ask for a reasoned answer to each.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler\n[email redacted]"},{"id":"gm-1a143e3043559508","subject":"Automatic reply: FOI 1264/26 - non-personal operational records concerning Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough, November–December 1988","name":"Automatic reply: FOI 1264/26 - non-personal operational records concerning Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough, November–December 1988","date":"2026-10-16T08:45:11Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a143e3043559508.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a143e3043559508-automatic-reply-foi-1264-26-non-personal-operational-records-concerning-great-house-farm-t-mawr-llandough-november-decem","scopeTopics":["swp"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["swp"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a143e3043559508","direction":"received","from":"Freedom of Information","institutions":[{"id":"swp","name":"South Wales Police"}],"refs":["FOI1264"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a143e3043559508.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Diolch am gysylltu â'r Tîm Rhyddid Gwybodaeth yn Heddlu De Cymru.

Its catalogue\n>    dates recording and broadcast to 30 November. It describes a one-minute HTV\n>    Wales Betacam item involving Miles Fletcher, bailiffs removing furniture,\n>    removal vans and Branwen Buckler leaving the farm. The abstract refers to a\n>    High Court injunction preventing demolition.\n>\n>    Crucially, the cataloguer says “Not viewed”. The tape contains\n>    unrelated clips, the position of this particular clip is unknown, and the\n>    description may have been taken from the broadcaster’s log. The record does\n>    not supply a catalogue-creation date or online-publication date.\n>    -\n>\n>    *5 December 1988 — separate demolition report.* I am investigating a\n>    distinct *Wales at Six* demolition headline/report and the associated\n>    off-transmission recording. I do not want the 30 November eviction and\n>    injunction item mistaken for the 5 December demolition coverage. I would\n>    like to establish whether the latter report aired, whether the surviving\n>    material represents the complete broadcast, and whether scripts, running\n>    orders, transmission logs or rushes survive.\n>    -\n>\n>    *6 December 1988 — demolition.* This is the recorded date of the\n>    farmhouse demolition in the heritage record. The event date should be kept\n>    separate from filming, broadcast and archival dates.\n>    -\n>\n>    *25 July 2025 — National Library of Wales YouTube publication.* The\n>    viewing copy I have identified as 4GXmR7mAas0 is associated with this\n>    publication date. The relevant link is https://youtu.be/4GXmR7mAas0. I\n>    understand the online publication was by the National Library of Wales, not\n>    an ITV upload. I would like the uploader and publication metadata retained\n>    and checked, and the exact relationship between this copy and the catalogue\n>    item above established.\n>    -\n>\n>    *Archive donation and digitisation.* The National Library of Wales\n>    holds ITV Wales/HTV material following the archive donation announced in\n>    2012. I would like to know whether the specific recordings under discussion\n>    were included in that transfer, and whether their individual accession,\n>    digitisation and catalogue histories are available.\n>    -\n>\n>    *My disclosure requests and subsequent contacts.* I would like the\n>    requests, responses, referrals and any internal handling records reconciled\n>    against these individual items. A later public upload does not, by itself,\n>    answer whether the footage was previously disclosed to me or when the\n>    Library’s catalogue entry became accessible online.\n>\n> I also note that Owen’s reported reference to a December 2025 YouTube\n> publication does not match the 25 July 2025 date associated with the\n> viewing copy identified above. These dates should not be assigned to the\n> same item until we establish precisely which video was meant.\n>\n> *What I would appreciate from ITV Wales*\n>\n> Please help establish:\n>\n>    1. The transmission date, programme, duration and running order for\n>    the 1988 eviction/injunction report and the separate 5 December demolition\n>    report.\n>    2. Whether ITV holds the complete broadcasts, off-transmission\n>    masters, scripts, rushes, outtakes, edit histories or other versions.\n>    3. Whether the abrupt cut around the property’s development value was\n>    present in the original broadcast or belongs to a later edit.\n>    4. Whether relevant footage involving Nicola Heywood-Thomas aired, and\n>    whether any alternative version survives.\n>    5. Whether any relevant editorial instruction, contractual restriction\n>    or case-specific non-disclosure agreement exists. I am asking whether such\n>    a record exists, not asserting that one does.\n>    6. What ITV records show about receiving, routing and handling my\n>    disclosure requests.\n>    7. Whether ITV can identify the specific items transferred to the\n>    National Library of Wales and provide any available provenance or accession\n>    information.\n>\n> I would also welcome guidance on the best way to coordinate these\n> enquiries with Beryl Evans and the National Library of Wales Enquiries\n> team, particularly concerning the creation and first online publication of\n> catalogue record 507738 and the search for separate 5 December material.\n>\n> The Library’s stated restrictions on viewing original media and reusing\n> footage may be entirely routine. They do not, by themselves, establish\n> concealment or unusual treatment. Equally, the existence of a public\n> catalogue entry does not settle the questions about broadcast completeness,\n> the history of my disclosure requests or the publication dates of\n> individual items.\n>\n> I am seeking a reliable chronology and an accurate account of the\n> surviving evidence. If any part of my understanding is mistaken, I would\n> welcome a clear correction supported by the relevant record. If a record\n> cannot be found or no longer survives, please distinguish that from a\n> question that has not yet been searched.\n>\n> Thank you for your help.

It is not a joint request, and it does not ask any recipient to speak for, investigate on behalf of, or answer in place of any other person or organisation. Each recipient is asked to respond only in respect of records within that recipient's own possession, custody or control, including records inherited from a predecessor organisation or retained on its behalf.\n\n1. Nature and purpose of this notice\n\nThis is a formal preservation notice concerning documentary material relating to Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough-juxta-Penarth, adjoining St Dochdwy's, and the subsequent development of the site, including the area now associated with Church View Close.\n\nIt is not a claim form, is not service of proceedings, and is not intended to constitute or replace any FOI request, internal review, complaint, subject-access request or other statutory process already made to any recipient.\n\nThe purpose of this notice is to require the preservation of potentially relevant material while the documentary history, title chain, registration history, planning history, possession proceedings, demolition and subsequent development are being reconstructed.\n\nA separate first-stage preservation notice has been issued or is being issued to Cadw / Welsh Government FOI, HM Land Registry Wales Office and DPO, Heneb / GGAT HER, RCAHMW, Vale of Glamorgan FOI Unit and DPO, Glamorgan Archives, South Wales Police FOI, The National Archives, the Wales Office FOI team, and the National Library of Wales. Persimmon Homes (Wales) Ltd has received a separate preservation letter.\n\nYou are receiving this notice separately because the published documentary record places you, or a predecessor whose records may remain in your custody or control, within the documentary, legal, professional, administrative or development chain concerning this land.\n\n2. Land and documentary scope\n\nPlease preserve, and do not destroy, alter, overwrite, discard, transfer out of custody without a recorded handover, or otherwise dispose of, any record within your possession, custody or control relating to the land or matters identified below.\n\nThe scope includes, without limitation, originals, copies, working papers, drafts, annotations, plans, photographs, negatives, films, tapes, maps, registers, indexes, correspondence, emails and attachments, electronic files, archived mailboxes, databases, metadata, internal notes, meeting records, instructions, client or matter files, survey material and other associated records.\n\nThe material requested includes:\n\n1. Historical ownership, occupation and conveyancing\n\nThe 1877 split; the 1916 and 1939 tenancies; the 1938 Bute to Western Ground Rents conveyance; the 1969 Western Ground Rents to BP Pension Trust conveyance; and any plans, schedules, abstracts, searches, correspondence or other documents relied upon in relation to those transactions.\n\n2. Possession proceedings and subsequent litigation\n\nThe 1955 High Court and 1962 Cardiff County Court possession orders; the 1974 proceedings; BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2; House of Lords leave papers, including YHL/PO/JO/10/11/2536; and Buckler v United Kingdom (1989), including associated correspondence, instructions, evidence, plans and working papers.\n\n3. Land registration\n\nThe first registration of WA231076, including the application dated 30 November 1982; the first registration of WA240304, including the application dated 23 February 1983; subsequent amalgamation, transfer or closure; and every plan, conveyance, abstract, search, application, correspondence trail or professional file relied upon in connection with those registrations or changes.\n\n4. 1988 possession and demolition\n\nThe taking of possession on or about 29 November 1988 and the demolition commenced on or about 6 December 1988, including any planning, listed-building, heritage, police, enforcement, media, contractor, survey, photographic or inter-agency liaison material.\n\n5. Planning and subsequent development, 1989–1996\n\nPlanning application 89/01396/OUT; reserved matters application 92/00671/RES; conditions 16–18; GGAT / Cotswold Archaeology material; records concerning any section 52, section 106, planning obligation, local land charge or equivalent instrument; and the transfer from BP to Ideal Homes dated 3 December 1993, together with all associated plans, correspondence, approvals, agreements, searches and completion material.\n\n6. Family records\n\nRecords concerning Mary Doreen Williams (died 1983) and William Buckler, insofar as those records relate to Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, the land described above, its occupation, ownership, possession, disposal, registration, development or demolition.\n\n3. Predecessor and inherited files\n\nWhere you hold, or may hold, a file originating with a predecessor, successor, merged practice, affiliated practice, client or other entity, that material is also within scope.\n\nThis includes, without limitation, records originating from:\n\nLoosemores of Cardiff; Robbins Olivey & Blake Lapthorn / Blake Morgan; Linklaters & Paines; Debenham Tewson / DTZ / Cushman & Wakefield; Wyn Thomas + Partners; Ideal Homes Wales; BP Properties; BP Pension Trust; Cotswold Archaeological Trust; Cardiff Bay Development Corporation; and South Glamorgan County Council.\n\nThe reference to a predecessor file does not assert that you necessarily hold such a file. It identifies material for which a reasonable custody or succession inquiry should be made where applicable.\n\n4. Preservation steps\n\nPlease take reasonable steps to prevent the routine destruction, deletion, alteration or overwriting of potentially relevant material, including material held in archived mailboxes, legacy systems, off-site storage, document-management systems, backup repositories and other electronic or physical stores.\n\nWhere relevant material has been transferred to another repository, archive, successor organisation or third party, please preserve the information necessary to identify the transfer and its current location, including any accession, file, box, reference or custody details.\n\nNothing in this notice requires the creation of records that do not exist. The request concerns the preservation of records already held or controlled by you.\n\n5. Purpose and legal position\n\nThis notice is not a finding against any recipient, and I am not asking any recipient to determine title or adjudicate the underlying dispute.\n\nThe 1987 Court of Appeal judgment is relied upon here only for matters actually determined by that judgment, including the issues concerning possession, limitation and the October 1974 letters. This preservation notice does not treat that judgment as having determined the complete documentary root of title to the farmhouse parcel.\n\nThe underlying documentary history, including the relationship between the farmhouse parcel and the agricultural land subsequently dealt with through Western Ground Rents and BP, remains a matter requiring reconstruction from the primary records.\n\nAccordingly, preservation is requested precisely so that the documentary record can be established from the records themselves rather than through assumptions based on later registration, later occupation, later planning treatment or secondary descriptions.\n\n6. Acknowledgement and identification of records\n\nPlease acknowledge receipt of this notice and, in your own capacity, confirm:\n\n(a) the officer, partner, records manager or other person responsible for implementing the preservation hold;\n\n(b) what records within your possession, custody or control you have identified as falling within the scope above; and\n\n(c) where you identify no records within scope, what relevant systems, files, repositories or predecessor records you searched in reaching that conclusion.\n\nA substantive assessment of title is not requested from you. The immediate requirement is preservation and identification of the documentary material you hold.\n\nThe public documentary index and developing evidence record is available at:\n\nhttps://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/\n\nPlease monitor that site for subsequent identification of documents, references and specific schedules relevant to your organisation's records.\n\nWhere a reliable public email address is unavailable, a postal preservation notice will also be sent. For example, a postal notice will follow to Loosemores, Alliance House, 18–19 High Street, Cardiff [postcode redacted].\n\nNothing in this notice constitutes an abandonment, waiver or limitation of any claim, position or remedy concerning title, registration, concealment, limitation, reopening, rectification or alteration of the register, or any associated matter.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\n________________________________\nThis e-mail and any attachments is intended only for the attention of the addressee(s).

I have now examined the catalogue\ninformation for another item held by the National Library of Wales, and it\nhelps clarify why I need to distinguish the different recordings,\nbroadcasts and later publications.\n\nI want to establish what happened to the reporting, what actually aired,\nwhat survives, and when the material was disclosed or made publicly\naccessible. I am raising concerns and asking questions, not asserting that\ndeliberate censorship or a special non-disclosure agreement has been proved.\n\n*The omissions and editorial questions*\n\nMy principal concern is that the coverage I have seen does not convey the\nfull human circumstances of the events. In particular, three infant\nchildren and the fact that my mother was pregnant at the time appear to\nhave been omitted.\n\nI am also concerned about the apparently abrupt edit following the\nreference to the property as prime development land overlooking Cardiff\nBay. I would like to establish whether that cut appeared in the original\nbroadcast or was introduced when a later viewing copy was edited.\n\nThere is a further personal dimension involving Nicola Heywood-Thomas, the\npresenter identified in the material. For a period, she was like a second\nmother to me. That connection is important to my understanding of the\nstory, although I recognise that the existence of a personal relationship\ndoes not, in itself, establish what the broadcaster knew or was required to\ninclude. I would like to know whether footage involving her was broadcast,\nwhether other versions survive, and whether any relevant editorial or\nconfidentiality record exists.\n\n*The chronology I need to reconcile*\n\nThe following are separate events and records, and I would be grateful for\nyour help establishing their precise relationship.\n\n   -\n\n   *30 November 1988 — eviction and injunction coverage.* The National\n   Library of Wales Watch and Listen catalogue has an item entitled *Eviction\n   News Material, 30 November 1988*:\n   https://gwylio-gwrando.llyfrgell.cymru/detail/507738. Its catalogue\n   dates recording and broadcast to 30 November. It describes a one-minute HTV\n   Wales Betacam item involving Miles Fletcher, bailiffs removing furniture,\n   removal vans and Branwen Buckler leaving the farm. The abstract refers to a\n   High Court injunction preventing demolition.\n\n   Crucially, the cataloguer says “Not viewed”. The tape contains unrelated\n   clips, the position of this particular clip is unknown, and the description\n   may have been taken from the broadcaster’s log. The record does not supply\n   a catalogue-creation date or online-publication date.\n   -\n\n   *5 December 1988 — separate demolition report.* I am investigating a\n   distinct *Wales at Six* demolition headline/report and the associated\n   off-transmission recording. I do not want the 30 November eviction and\n   injunction item mistaken for the 5 December demolition coverage. I would\n   like to establish whether the latter report aired, whether the surviving\n   material represents the complete broadcast, and whether scripts, running\n   orders, transmission logs or rushes survive.\n   -\n\n   *6 December 1988 — demolition.* This is the recorded date of the\n   farmhouse demolition in the heritage record. The event date should be kept\n   separate from filming, broadcast and archival dates.\n   -\n\n   *25 July 2025 — National Library of Wales YouTube publication.* The\n   viewing copy I have identified as 4GXmR7mAas0 is associated with this\n   publication date. The relevant link is https://youtu.be/4GXmR7mAas0. I\n   understand the online publication was by the National Library of Wales, not\n   an ITV upload. I would like the uploader and publication metadata retained\n   and checked, and the exact relationship between this copy and the catalogue\n   item above established.\n   -\n\n   *Archive donation and digitisation.* The National Library of Wales holds\n   ITV Wales/HTV material following the archive donation announced in 2012. I\n   would like to know whether the specific recordings under discussion were\n   included in that transfer, and whether their individual accession,\n   digitisation and catalogue histories are available.\n   -\n\n   *My disclosure requests and subsequent contacts.* I would like the\n   requests, responses, referrals and any internal handling records reconciled\n   against these individual items. A later public upload does not, by itself,\n   answer whether the footage was previously disclosed to me or when the\n   Library’s catalogue entry became accessible online.\n\nI also note that Owen’s reported reference to a December 2025 YouTube\npublication does not match the 25 July 2025 date associated with the\nviewing copy identified above. These dates should not be assigned to the\nsame item until we establish precisely which video was meant.\n\n*What I would appreciate from ITV Wales*\n\nPlease help establish:\n\n   1. The transmission date, programme, duration and running order for the\n   1988 eviction/injunction report and the separate 5 December demolition\n   report.\n   2. Whether ITV holds the complete broadcasts, off-transmission masters,\n   scripts, rushes, outtakes, edit histories or other versions.\n   3. Whether the abrupt cut around the property’s development value was\n   present in the original broadcast or belongs to a later edit.\n   4. Whether relevant footage involving Nicola Heywood-Thomas aired, and\n   whether any alternative version survives.\n   5. Whether any relevant editorial instruction, contractual restriction\n   or case-specific non-disclosure agreement exists. I am asking whether such\n   a record exists, not asserting that one does.\n   6. What ITV records show about receiving, routing and handling my\n   disclosure requests.\n   7. Whether ITV can identify the specific items transferred to the\n   National Library of Wales and provide any available provenance or accession\n   information.\n\nI would also welcome guidance on the best way to coordinate these enquiries\nwith Beryl Evans and the National Library of Wales Enquiries team,\nparticularly concerning the creation and first online publication of\ncatalogue record 507738 and the search for separate 5 December material.\n\nThe Library’s stated restrictions on viewing original media and reusing\nfootage may be entirely routine. They do not, by themselves, establish\nconcealment or unusual treatment. Equally, the existence of a public\ncatalogue entry does not settle the questions about broadcast completeness,\nthe history of my disclosure requests or the publication dates of\nindividual items.\n\nI am seeking a reliable chronology and an accurate account of the surviving\nevidence. If any part of my understanding is mistaken, I would welcome a\nclear correction supported by the relevant record. If a record cannot be\nfound or no longer survives, please distinguish that from a question that\nhas not yet been searched.\n\nThank you for your help. Please let me know who will coordinate the\nenquiries and which records ITV can realistically investigate.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler\n(Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\n https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com\n\n https://dartboard.bucklerfamily.estate and\nhttps://bpvsbuckler.bucklerfamily.estate\nhttps://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate\n\nOn Wed, 14 Oct 2026, 12:23 Owain Meredith, <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n>\n> https://www.library.wales/\n>\n> Choose Catalogue\n> in serch box dropdown choose alln categories\n> Tweak my results choose author ITV\n>\n> This shiws you everything in ITV Collection - This information has been in\n> the public domains since 2012\n>\n> Owain Meredith\n>\n> Archifydd ITV Cymru\n> Archivist ITV Wales\n>\n> [phone redacted]\n> [phone redacted]\n>\n>\n>\n>\n> ITV plc (Registration No. 4967001) (ITV) is incorporated in England and\n> Wales with its registered office at ITV White City, 201 Wood Lane, London\n> [postcode redacted]\n> [map link redacted].\n> Please visit www.itv.com for further information.\n>\n> This email and any attachments are intended solely for the addressee and\n> may contain confidential, copyrighted and/or privileged information.

Which items in DBJ/O/90-94 cover the parish of Llandough-juxta-Penarth or the Dinas Powys hundred, and for which years.\n2. Whether any catalogue, index or transcript you hold names the proprietors and occupiers listed for Llandough-juxta-Penarth in those years. If so, please supply those names and sums.\n3. The cost of a staff search or copy limited to those entries only.\n\nPart 2 — A lease of Great House said to date from 1667.\nThe 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 you hold:\n4. 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).\n5. Any later deed, abstract of title, schedule or rental (including in the Bute, DBDT or Western Ground Rents material) that recites or refers to a lease of Great House for 999 years or for a long term.\n6. The conveyance by which the Bute estate (or the Windsor family) acquired Great House from the Vaughan family or its heirs, or any copy, abstract or reference to it.\n7. Any Vaughan of Llandough family papers.\n\nThe aim is to establish who owned and occupied Great House from 1667 onward and on what tenure, and to test the family's 1667 date.\n\nIf you consider any of this reasonably accessible by other means under section 21, please say exactly where and how.\n\nPublic working evidence catalogue: https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com\nTitle and chronology index: https://dartboard.bucklerfamily.estate and https://bpvsbuckler.bucklerfamily.estate\nLong-term archive: https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate\n\nThank you,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a141cd2ab07bcb5","subject":"Automatic reply: [External] Research visit request — Bute Estate (Glamorgan) records, 1667 and 1875–1880 — Llandough-juxta-Penarth","name":"Automatic reply: [External] Research visit request — Bute Estate (Glamorgan) records, 1667 and 1875–1880 — Llandough-juxta-Penarth","date":"2026-10-15T23:02:03Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a141cd2ab07bcb5.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a141cd2ab07bcb5-automatic-reply-external-research-visit-request-bute-estate-glamorgan-records-1667-and-1875-1880-llandough-juxta-penarth","scopeTopics":["mount-stuart"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["mount-stuart"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a141cd2ab07bcb5","direction":"received","from":"Collections","institutions":[{"id":"mount-stuart","name":"Mount Stuart (Bute archive)"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a141cd2ab07bcb5.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Thank you for your kind enquiry to the Mount Stuart Trust Collections Team.\n\nPlease note that we are currently unable to respond to general external enquiries.

Bute Estate (Glamorgan) accounts, rentals, trustees' papers or correspondence for 1875–1880, especially anything recording a payment from Daniel Thomas (or Daniel Thomas & Son) or a disposal of land at Llandough in 1877.\n2. Any Herbert, Windsor or Bute deeds, surveys, rentals or court records for the manor of Llandough for c.1660–1680, especially 1667, naming the holder of Great House.\n3. Any lease of Great House to the Williams family, or any lease of it for 999 years. The family's account is that such a lease was granted in 1667; no copy has yet been found.\n4. The conveyance by which the Bute estate acquired Great House from the Vaughan family or its heirs (late 18th century), and any abstract of title reciting leases then outstanding.\n5. Any later index, schedule or abstract of title for Bute land at Llandough that would show when Great House left or stayed in the estate.\n\nIf none of these are held at Mount Stuart, or they are at the National Library of Wales or Cardiff, a one-line confirmation would save a wasted journey.\n\nPublic working evidence catalogue: https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com\nTitle and chronology index: https://dartboard.bucklerfamily.estate and https://bpvsbuckler.bucklerfamily.estate\nLong-term archive: https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate\n\nThank you,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a141cc6d72f8f62","subject":"Re: Response to National Archives enquiry.

Please add it to Z084NQV.\n(b) It supplements my emails of 30 July, 12 August, 16 September (points 1 to 14), 18 September, 27 September and 7 October 2026. Where a point repeats an earlier question I say so. Those questions remain unanswered. Points marked NEW have not been put to the Registry before.\n(c) It is limited to the first registration of WA240304 in 1983 and what followed to 1987. It does not deal with the 1982 application or the eastern land, and I waive nothing on either.\n\nYour enquiry 260917-6714796 says the Registry can no longer service mail sent to individual addresses. Please treat this email as received on the date sent and confirm receipt against Z084NQV.\n\nCopies go to the Independent Complaints Reviewer (ICR/090/26), Stephen Doughty MP, who raised this matter with the Registry, and Llandough Community Council, which holds related local records.\n\nI am not asking you to decide who owns the land. I am asking what the Registry examined, what it relied on and what its records show. The dates come from your schedule of 30 July 2026, your letters of 23 March, 19 April and 25 May 2026, and the WA231076 register accessed on 19 September 2026.\n\nPublic working evidence catalogue: https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com\nTitle and chronology index: https://dartboard.bucklerfamily.estate and https://bpvsbuckler.bucklerfamily.estate\nLong-term archive: https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate\n\n2. The 1983 record on your own schedule\n\n- 23 February 1983: form 1C application from Linklaters & Paines (WA240304 item 11), and a register edition of the same date (item 10).\n- 26 March 1983: Mary Williams, the occupier of the farmhouse, died.\n- 8 April 1983: form D23 (\"inside exam\") and a Linklaters & Paines letter (WA240304 item 7).\n- 12 April 1983: customer correspondence (item 4), plus undated letters (item 5).\n- 12 May 1983: several letters between Linklaters & Paines and the Registry (WA231076 item 16).\n- 13 January 1984: form A3 application (item 15) and a new register edition (item 23).\n- 22 May 1984: BP's writ for possession. This is chronology only, not evidence of what the Registry knew in 1983.\n- 2 February 1987: application to amalgamate (WA231076 item 14). Your schedule says the WA240304 copy of the form has \"no annotation on it\".\n\n3. Points arising\n\n3.1 Root of title and class of title. Raised before: my email of 16 September (points 10 and 13) and my ICR referral. NEW detail: your stage one letter says a full documentary title commencing with a good root at least 15 years old should normally establish title. It then concluded a good root was shown and that BP Pension Trust acquired the land in 1969. That conclusion rests on the recital in the 1975 conveyance, which refers to a conveyance of 31 December 1969. The 1969 deed itself is not on your schedule. The recited root was about 13 years 2 months old on 23 February 1983. The letter also quotes the 1975 recital as giving the year as \"One thousand One hundred and sixty nine\". Please confirm the original reads 1969. Please say which documents the Registry relied on as the root, whether any exception or alternative procedure was used (and under which provision of the 1925 Act), why absolute title was accepted, and the class of title first entered for WA240304.\n\n3.2 The 1971 abstract. Raised before: 30 July, 12 August and 16 September (points 1 and 8). Your letter says a 1971 abstract was lodged with the WA231076 application and that the Registry \"had sight of\" one for WA240304. Neither schedule lists it. NEW: a 1971 abstract cannot evidence a conveyance of 1975. What evidenced that conveyance?\n\n3.3 Extent and plans. Raised before in part: 18 September. NEW: WA240304 item 1 is a plan to the conveyance of 23 May 1975, but item 13 is a plan \"to conveyance dated 23 February 1975\". Please reconcile those dates and say which plan governed the registration. The WA231076 register records that the 1975 conveyance plan is \"filed under WA240304\", which is now a closed title. Please supply the original title plan (item 9) and both plans. Please also identify the land conveyed in 1975 and the vendors' \"Retained Land\", the capacity in which each vendor conveyed, and how the extents of the two titles related immediately before amalgamation, including any overlap. The register also records that a new filed plan was substituted on 5 January 1995. Please supply the plan it replaced and confirm the extent did not change.\n\n3.4 The occupier and what the Registry knew. Raised before in part: 16 September (points 4 and 12), 27 September, and ICR/090/26. Mary Williams was in actual occupation of the farmhouse in February and March 1983. The history includes the 1955 order against Frederick Buckler alone, the 1962 order against Frederick and Mary for the farmhouse and garden (not enforced), and the 1974 county court action in which Mary pleaded ownership, which was part-heard and never concluded. NEW: stage two says the Registry \"were unaware of any dispute that was possibly ongoing\". Yet WA240304 holds an inside examination (D23) and letters of 8 and 12 April 1983, and WA231076 holds letters between the applicant's solicitors and the Registry of 12 May 1983. Please say what enquiry was made of the occupier (Land Registration Act 1925 s.70(1)(g)), what inspection was done, and what those letters said about occupation, possession proceedings or the 1974 action. Please supply the D23 examination record.\n\n3.5 The solicitors' certificate. Raised before: 30 July and 16 September (points 2 and 9). Stage one relied on certificate wording from form FR1. The 1983 application was on form 1C. Please supply form 1C as lodged and say what it certified about any question or doubt affecting title.\n\n3.6 Notice and caution. Raised before: my email of 27 September (the family's case) and ICR/090/26. NEW: stage two says my family could have applied for a caution. That requires knowing of the application. Please produce every notice and service record for WA240304, as sent, showing the title it concerned, the addressee's name, the address, the date and any proof of delivery. A notice addressed to Mary Williams and issued or received after 26 March 1983 went to a person who had died. If it went to \"Mrs Williams\" at the property, I ask whether that was the right name and the right household. I am not asserting that this happened. I am asking for the record.\n\n3.7 The 1987 judgment and the amalgamation. Raised before: 16 September (point 14) and ICR/090/26. Stage one said it is not for the Registrar to look behind decisions of the Court. The Court of Appeal considered adverse possession, the 1962 order and the 1974 letters. As I read it, it did not review the Registry's examination of title, the documents supplied or the notices. Please say precisely what HMLR says that judgment established and which parts of its 1983 process it says the judgment answers. NEW: please provide the application, decision and completion dates of the amalgamation, the instrument and plans relied on, the power used, and whether the registered extent changed or only the structure of the register. HMLR has also given the closure of WA240304 as 1987 (the amalgamation) and as 2005 (your email of 21 September 2026, enquiry 260919-6726246). Please state the actual date and the entry that records it.\n\n3.8 What the complaint decisions examined. Raised before: ICR/090/26. The itemised schedule reached me on 30 July 2026, after both decisions. NEW: stage two says the reviewer examined \"the evidence lodged in support of the application\". Please confirm which original first-registration documents each decision-maker examined, whether the absence of the 1969 conveyance was identified, and provide the recorded basis for the conclusions reached.\n\n3.9 The 1994 corrections. NEW to the Registry (raised only with the ICR). WA231076 items 12 and 22 are applications \"to correct the title\", dated 20 January 1994 and 13 October 1994. Stage one and stage two found no evidence of a mistake. Please say what was corrected, on whose application, under what authority, on what evidence, and whether the registered extent changed, including land derived from WA240304.\n\n4. Schedule 4 (mistake and rectification) and Schedule 8 (indemnity). NEW\n\nA. Mistake. I understand Schedule 4 now governs alteration of the register as it stands, including entries made in 1983 under the 1925 Act. The Registrar may alter the register to correct a mistake (paragraph 5(a)). Practice Guide 39 gives \"including too much land in a registered title\" as an example. I say there is a possible mistake in the 1983 entry in two respects: absolute title entered on a root that is not on the file (3.1 and 3.2), and an extent fixed by plans that do not reconcile (3.3). Please state whether HMLR accepts either as a mistake.\n\nB. Possession and proper care. Practice Guide 39 (sections 1.3 and 1.4) says a registered proprietor in possession is protected unless it caused or contributed to the mistake by fraud or lack of proper care, or unless it would be unjust not to correct. Possession means physical possession. Please say who is in physical possession of the land affected. Practice Guide 39 (appendix 12.3.1) gives as an example a solicitor on a first registration who fails to lodge all the documents in their possession. Please say whether the applicant's solicitors lodged every document in their possession in 1983, including the 1969 conveyance and the abstract, and whether HMLR considers that bears on this protection. I do not assert that anything was withheld.\n\nC. Class of title and overriding interests. Practice Guide 39 (section 1.1) says an alteration can give effect to an estate, right or interest not affected by registration where land is registered with good leasehold, possessory or qualified title. If the root evidence supported no more than that, the class entered may itself be the mistake. Section 1.2 says an alteration reflecting an overriding interest is not rectification. Please say whether HMLR accepts that an occupier's rights in 1983 could be recorded without that being rectification, and how it would deal with them.\n\nD. Indemnity and process. Please confirm Z084NQV is being treated as a formal application for alteration, or tell me what form and fee are required (Practice Guide 39 section 2.1; rule 13 of the Land Registration Rules 2003). Practice Guide 39 says anyone may apply, and the fee may be refunded where the Registry caused the error. Indemnity time runs for six years from when the claimant knew or should have known of the claim (Schedule 8 paragraph 8). The family first saw the file schedule on 30 July 2026. Please confirm HMLR will treat any claim as in time. Please also give your consent under Schedule 8 paragraph 3 to reasonable costs, including copy fees at £11 per document. Where indemnity is not available, please consider whether a payment for maladministration is appropriate (Practice Guide 39 section 11).\n\n5. Anticipated responses\n\n- \"The amalgamation was administrative tidying.\" Points 3.3 and 3.7 ask whether it altered the registered extent. Points 3.1 and 3.2 go to the examination of title, not to the structure of the register.\n- \"The missing documents' contents are unknown, so absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.\" That is why I ask for the files to be read and the examination record produced.\n- \"The Registry may rely on the solicitors' certificate.\" Please produce the certificate actually given on form 1C (3.5).\n- \"The registrar may approve a title open to objection where the holding is unlikely to be disturbed (section 13 of the 1925 Act, and section 9(3) of the 2002 Act).\" If HMLR relied on that discretion, please identify the defect considered, the contemporaneous evidence supporting the opinion that the holding would not be disturbed, and the recorded reasons for approving the title. Please also explain how the occupier's rights under section 70(1)(g) were examined before they were treated as undisclosed.\n\n6. Requests\n\n(a) Confirm these points are added to Z084NQV, and confirm receipt of this email.\n(b) Answer each numbered point and A to D, or say the record is not held.\n(c) Provide copies of the WA240304 register as first registered, form 1C as lodged, form D23, the letters of 8 and 12 April 1983 and 12 May 1983, the A3 application of 13 January 1984 and the register edition, the 1971 abstract, both plans, the original title plan, every notice and service record, the amalgamation application with its decision and completion dates, and the two 1994 correction applications. If copies cannot be emailed, please give the OC2 / HC1 wording and the address for each.\n(d) Reply within 20 working days.\n\nPlease also keep every document on both first-registration files and every related internal record, in line with my preservation notices of 3 June and 28 September 2026.\n\nTo the Independent Complaints Reviewer: please confirm whether you will consider this additional material in ICR/090/26, or whether I should raise it separately.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a13fd8c7589dabc","subject":"RE.

Archwilio 02038s does not supply:\n1. the complete entry text on armour or medieval ironwork found under the rear wing or floor about 1880, with every source code; 2. a copy or transcript of the RCAHMW / Suggett 1988 material on the file; 3. any museum accession, letter, or catalogue slip naming where the ironwork went; 4. any recorded distinction between the c.1880 rear-wing ironwork, the\n1979 villa iron south of the church, and the 1994 cemetery iron girdle (Burial 631).\n\nPlease give the record location before any viewing is discussed:\nseries, accession, box, shelf, and catalogue id for the source file behind 02038s, and whether staff physically checked that the item is there (who, date, store). I am not requesting a screen-room viewing.\n\nIf any of the four items is not held, please name the systems searched and whether the physical source file was retrieved (EIR reg.5 and reg.9; reg.14 if you refuse).\n\nPlease also give a date for the separate reply on the 19 September email. The 8 September request was answered on day 20. An extension of the 19 September points should be notified if you need beyond 20 working days from 6 October.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a13aa68b250b8de","subject":"Response to National Archives enquiry.

(https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1JExrTZK3w/)\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/v/1JExrTZK3w/\n\nOn Wednesday, our village experienced another incident.\n\nIt is clear neither the police nor the Vale of Glamorgan Council have taken sufficient action to date to address this problem.\n\nBoth authorities have failed to fulfill their duties to protect our community.\n\nI've written to both authorities to raise serious concerns.\n\nYou can read my letter below.\nFAO: South Wales Police\nVale of Glamorgan Council\n\n8th October 2026\n\n\nDear both\n\nIllegal firework usage in Llandough\n\nI’m saddened to report that another firework related incident took place in Llandough last night.\n\nThis is impacting some of the most vulnerable members of our community, causing distress to the elderly, small children and animals.\n\nIt is apparent that those responsible for setting off fireworks are not residents and instead come into the community from outside.\n\nA lack of action to date is sending a message to those responsible that their behaviour is acceptable and will be tolerated.\n\nThere have been several instances in which fireworks have been set off past 11.00pm at night, in direct contravention of the law. There may also be other laws and regulations that have been broken.\n\nI would therefore be grateful if you would:\n\n- Outline full details of all firework-related incidents in the Llandough ward reported to your respective authorities within the past 24 months;\n\n- Confirm all actions that were taken following those incidents to address the problems reported;\n\n- Outline all actions proposed by your authorities to prevent inappropriate firework usage in the Llandough ward in future;\n\n- Confirm all measures available to your respective authorities to detain and apprehend the individuals responsible for inappropriate firework usage in the Community of Llandough as well as any restrictions that may be imposed to prohibit those individuals from entering the Community boundary; and\n\n- Confirm details of any powers conferred on your respective authorities which enable you to introduce additional regulations or byelaws to impose stricter restrictions prohibiting firework usage within the Community of Llandough.\n\nI have not copied this message to our PSCOs because they are not responsible for operational decisions, and as such it would be unfair to attribute blame to them for the failure to address this problem.\n\nHowever, I reiterate my request for your respective authorities to meet with me at the earliest convenience to discuss this ongoing problem, with an invitation also extended to our PCSOs.\n\nThank you for your consideration of this matter, and I look forward to your prompt response.\n\nKind regards,\n\nCllr George Carroll\nElected member\n\nLlandough ward\nVale of Glamorgan Council\nI'm pleased to report both authorities responded promptly.\n\nThe Police have confirmed a Problem Oriented Police Plan is being developed in conjunction with our PCSOs.\n\nThe Inspector has confirmed he'll update me in due course, with further escalation promised if this proves insufficient.\n\nThe Council too have agreed to take part in a multi-agency meeting to address the problem.\n\nThe time for discussion has long passed.\n\nWe need to see surveillance and enforcement, so that those responsible for these disturbances know their behaviour will not be tolerated.\n\nAs a community, it's vital we keep up the pressure.\n\n\n**\n------------------------------------------------------------\n\nNEXT WEEK: Penlan Road\ntemporary traffic lights\n\nTemporary traffic lights will be in place on Penlan Road on Tuesday 13th October to allow for Welsh Water works to be carried out safely.\n\nThey will operate from 9.30am to 2.30pm.\n\nThe lights will be situated outside the Memorial Hall, with Spencer Drive and Cogan Pill Road also impacted.\n\nThe bus stops outside the Hall will be suspended due to proximity to the works.\n\nAccess will be maintained for residents at all times.\n\nIf anyone has further questions, please let me know.\n\nPlease see below for further information.\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/v/1Eqf5imB1i/\n\nLlandough Hospital meadow\n\nI've received many enquiries about the Llandough Hospital meadow, access to which has been restricted.\n\nI've contacted the Health Board about this, as I know many residents enjoy using this route.\n\nThey've confirmed it has been fenced off as a temporary measure following misuse of the site.\n\nThey do not intend to close it permanently, but have restricted access while safety arrangements are reviewed.\n\nA fortnight ago, I requested a likely timescale.\n\nThe person I spoke with said they were unable to provide one at present, but said they'd request an update.\n\nI've chased them on this.\n\nIf anyone has further questions, please let me know.\n\nThe meadow has been a good benefit to our community and I’m pressing for it to be opened again as soon as possible.\n\nPenarth Road water leak\n\nProblems like the Penarth Road water leak require different agencies to work together.\n\nThe manhole from which the water is emanating is BT's responsibility, but the fault causing the leak is Welsh Water's responsibility.\n\nThe Council is in charge of highway safety, so they must make sure the algae forming in the discharge is cleared to prevent a slip hazard.\n\nAll responsible bodies must work together to fulfil their responsibilities, rather than blame each other.\n\nI emphasised this to the Council this week.\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/r/19dhRQfogP/\n\nChristmas Fayre\nSaturday 14th November\n\nLlandough’s annual Christmas Fayre is set to take place on Saturday 14th November.\n\nWith many local businesses operating stalls, it’s a great way to make a start to your Christmas shopping and support our local economy.\n\nHuge thanks to Llandough Community Council for organising, it’s always a great event and this year promises to be no different.\n\nFurther details can be found above.\n\nCommunity drop-in event:\n20th October\n\nOur next community drop-in event takes place at the Merrie Harrier on 20th October.\n\nLike the last one, it'll start at 7.00pm.\n\nThe pub is a key asset to our community.\n\nTracey and the team do a lot for us - help return the favour by lending them your support.\n\nYou can see some of their midweek offers below!\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/r/1EM9z5wbMs/\n\nOur Plan for Llandough!\n\n\nAs your councillor, I'm working with you all to secure a better future for Llandough. Together, we have a plan to deliver for the village.\n\nOur plan is making Llandough better by:\n\n1. Sorting out the parking problems\n2. Stamping out dog fouling\n3. Repairing our roads\n4. Stopping littering and flytipping\n5. Delivering better sports facilities\n6.

That was wrong. HM Land Registry’s own letter of 23 March 2026 (Lisa Griffiths, ref N610CGV) separates the two acts.\n1982–83 was first registration of two live titles, not a merger.\n30 November 1982: application to first-register WA231076. The Court of Appeal later treated BP Properties Ltd as registered proprietors of “the farm” from November 1982.\n23 February 1983: application to first-register a second title, WA240304.\n26 March 1983: Mary Williams died. On the family’s case, notice of those applications did not reach us until after her death, while the family was in mourning. She had no window in which to object. The family was not in a position to use any window that arrived after that.\nThose two titles remained separate through first instance.\n24 July 1986: Hollis J. Both titles were still live. The judgment language treats Great House Farm as one holding. It had not been one holding on the register. On the family’s case it had not been one holding since the 1877 split: Parcel A (house, buildings, garden/yard and about 10 acres, the Thomas/Williams line) and Parcel B (the eastern fields retained by Bute and later WGR/BP).\n2 February 1987: application to amalgamate the two titles. WA240304 was then closed and registration continued under WA231076. That is the merge. It was made after the 1986 ruling and before the Court of Appeal gave judgment on 31 July 1987.\nSo 1983 is silent first registration of a second title while Mary was still in Parcel A, or had only just died. 1987 is the administrative merger, carried out while the appeal was still open.\nThis was not a dispute about a single land parcel that BP already owned. Mary was on Parcel A, which the family says she owned, with occupation on that house parcel running in the family from at least 1667. BP, and WGR before it from 1949, were the neighbouring interest on Parcel B. From 1949 onwards the family’s case is that those neighbours ran a decades-long series of tenancy offers, “whole farm” wording, possession orders and the 1974 letters to make her occupation of her own parcel look permissive, and to make both parcels look like one estate they had acquired. They never produced a conveyance of Parcel A. What they had was an unfounded claim that her occupancy was permissive.\nPlease treat any earlier letter from me that said the titles merged in 1983 as corrected by this email. The dates that matter are:\n1982/83 — first registration of two titles, without the occupier being heard;\n24 July 1986 — first-instance judgment describing one farm while two titles still stood;\n2 February 1987 — amalgamation, before the appeal ended;\n31 July 1987 — Court of Appeal.\nYours faithfully,\n\n\nSion Buckler\nRefs where relevant: N610CGV; 260919-6726246; titles WA231076 and WA240304.\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\ngreathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com <http://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com>\n\n\n\n\n\n------------------\n\nBeryl Evans Rheolwr Gwasanaethau Ymchwil Research Services Manager Gwasanaeth Ymholiadau: https://www.llyfrgell.cymru/gwasanaethau/ymholiadau/ymholiadau-llgc Enquiries Service: https://www.library.wales/services/enquiries/nlw-enquiries Ffon/Tel: [phone redacted] Ffacs/Fax: [phone redacted]\n\n\n\nThis email is sent from LibAnswers in relationship to ticket #9816931.\n\nRead our privacy policy. <https://springshare.com/privacy.html>"},{"id":"gm-1a139b4ba7873d07","subject":"[NLW English] Research enquiry — Bute Estate records GB 0210 BUTE / D153 / D219: Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough-juxta-Penarth — 1877 split and 1916 tenancy","name":"[NLW English] Research enquiry — Bute Estate records GB 0210 BUTE / D153 / D219: Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough-juxta-Penarth — 1877 split and 1916 tenancy","date":"2026-10-14T09:18:28Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a139b4ba7873d07.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0d4d42318ac190-nlw-english-research-enquiry-bute-estate-records-gb-0210-bute-d153-d219-great-house-farm-t-mawr-llandough-juxta-penarth-","scopeTopics":["nlw"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["nlw"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0d4d42318ac190","direction":"received","from":"National Library of Wales","institutions":[{"id":"nlw","name":"National Library of Wales"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a139b4ba7873d07.json","textStatus":"available","text":"--# Teipiwch eich ateb uwchben y llinell hon #--\n------------------\n\nBeryl Evans\n\nOct 14 2026, 10:17AM via System\n\nDear Mr Buckler\n\nThank you for contacting the National Library of Wales regarding the Bute Estate Records.\n\nThe full catalogue for the Bute Estate Records can be viewed online https://archives.library.wales/index.php/bute-estate-records\n\nA quick search of the contents can be made by using the search box on the left.\n\nBy clicking on the + sign it will open up descriptions of additional documents with descriptions listed below.\n\nWhen you have searched the collection and identified any records of possible interest you may be interested in booking a session in our Virtual Reading Room to view them.

ST 167 733).\n\nGlamorgan Archives (Louise Hunt, ref. 2026/4097, 24 September 2026) has confirmed that the following references are yours, not theirs, and has directed me to you:\n\n1. D153 — Deeds relating to premises in p. Llandough, co. Glam., comprising a dwelling house adjoining the churchyard, 1811 (D153/1–2), and land (D153 onwards, including items sometimes cited as D153/4–8).\n2. D219 — Llandough manorial leases and agreements.\n3. The main Bute Estate deposit, GB 0210 BUTE (deeds to 1937; Glamorgan / Cardiff rentals).\n\nI do not ask you to adjudicate title. I ask only whether the following instruments exist in your holdings, and for catalogue references, dates, parties, acreages, and whether a plan is attached.\n\nA. The 1877 division\nDoes the Bute deposit contain a conveyance, agreement, or other instrument of about 1876–1877 by which the Marquess of Bute (or trustees) conveyed or contracted to convey the farmhouse, buildings and about 10 acres adjoining the churchyard at Llandough to Daniel Thomas (or Thomas and another), while retaining about 9 acres of agricultural land to the east?\n\nB. The 1916 agricultural tenancy\nDoes the deposit contain a yearly agricultural tenancy, or counterpart, of 1916 from the Marquess of Bute to John Williams of Great House Farm, Llandough?\nIf yes:\n- does the parcels clause describe the whole farm, or only the land Bute still owned after 1877?\n- is there a plan?\n- what acreage is stated?\n\nC. Rentals 1877–1936 for this farm\nDo Glamorgan / Cardiff / Llandough rentals in GB 0210 BUTE distinguish, after c.1877, between:\n- a house/buildings holding (Thomas / later Williams), and\n- a residual Bute field holding later passed to Western Ground Rents in 1938?\n\nD. Anything that would show the two holdings were treated as one unit again before 1938.\n\nPurpose. HM Land Registry first-registered titles WA231076 (30 November 1982) and WA240304 (23 February 1983; later amalgamated). The 1982/83 files treat the land as one farm. The family case is that Parcel A (house and about 10 acres) had already left Bute in 1877 and was not the land let in 1916, so the 1982 merged title cannot be the same unit as the 1916 tenancy. Your deeds and rentals are the estate-side evidence that can confirm or deny that.\n\nI live in Patagonia and cannot visit Aberystwyth in person in the short term. I would be grateful for:\n- catalogue references and a short description of any matching items;\n- whether copies can be supplied, and the cost;\n- if the 1916 tenancy is not in GB 0210 BUTE, any note of where Bute tenancy counterparts after 1910 were deposited.\n\nThis is a new enquiry. It is not a repeat of FOI/2026/11. Glamorgan Archives hold the 1938–44 Western Ground Rents plan/rental book (D696) and have already answered on their own Bute material.\n\nSion (Hywel) Buckler\n[email redacted] <[email redacted]>\n[phone redacted]\n\nPublic chronology and parcel statement:\nhttps://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/the-two-parcels/\nhttps://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/1916-tenancy/\nhttps://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/land-registry-titles/\n\n------------------\n\nBeryl Evans Rheolwr Gwasanaethau Ymchwil Research Services Manager Gwasanaeth Ymholiadau: https://www.llyfrgell.cymru/gwasanaethau/ymholiadau/ymholiadau-llgc Enquiries Service: https://www.library.wales/services/enquiries/nlw-enquiries Ffon/Tel: [phone redacted] Ffacs/Fax: [phone redacted]\n\n\n\nThis email is sent from LibAnswers in relationship to ticket #9816877.\n\nRead our privacy policy. <https://springshare.com/privacy.html>"},{"id":"gm-1a1393f92a4eae63","subject":"Fwd: MEETING OF THE COUNCIL - 22 OCTOBER AT 7.00PM","name":"Fwd: MEETING OF THE COUNCIL - 22 OCTOBER AT 7.00PM","date":"2026-10-14T07:10:29Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a1393f92a4eae63.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a136e2b51f9d191-fwd-meeting-of-the-council-22-october-at-7-00pm","scopeTopics":["vale-scrutiny"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["vale-scrutiny"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a136e2b51f9d191","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"vale-scrutiny","name":"Vale of Glamorgan Council (Scrutiny)"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a1393f92a4eae63.json","attachments":[{"name":"2026-10-13_llandough-community-council_agenda-22-october-2026.pdf","title":"2026-10-13_llandough-community-council_agenda-22-october-2026.pdf","url":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/pdf/evidence/2026-10-13_llandough-community-council_agenda-22-october-2026.pdf","mime":"application/pdf","bytes":92595,"sha256":"4417c49486606201987b121ebea0ba437ba2bbe7fc240ae2345fa84c36c9e986"}],"textStatus":"available","text":"---------- Forwarded message ---------\nFrom: Paul Egan  \nDate: Tue, 13 Oct 2026, 21:09\nSubject: MEETING OF THE COUNCIL - 22 OCTOBER AT 7.00PM\nTo: Sion Buckler  \n\n\nDear Mr Buckler,\n\nI acknowledge receipt of your recent email which is receiving attention\nand a full response will be sent to you in due course.\n\nI am attaching as requested the agenda for the Council meeting on 22\nOctober 2026 at 7.00pm and the link for you to join the meeting on Zoom\nis:\n\n[meeting joining details removed — available from the Clerk]\n\n\n\n-- \nPaul R.

A\n> contemporaneous South Wales Echo report dated 30 November, titled “Angry\n> scenes as farmer evicted” and attributed to Peter Bibby, describes the\n> eviction sequence and reports that bailiffs entered the property and that\n> the roof of an outbuilding had already been partly removed.

The\n> archived historical chronology reports that a demolition team arrived in\n> the early hours and that the farmhouse was demolished that morning.\n>\n> I emphasise that the reported arrival time is not evidence that police\n> were present at that time.

I seek only\n> information falling within the original request’s non-personal scope,\n> including any separable non-personal operational information.\n>\n> 4. Earlier event offered solely as an indexing lead\n>\n> The archived historical chronology also describes a separate incident at\n> Great House Farm on 29 April 1988, involving bailiffs and a police presence\n> during a stand-off. The account attributes to South Wales Police the\n> position that the officers were there to prevent a breach of the peace,\n> rather than to assist bailiffs.\n>\n> That event is outside the requested period. I am not asking you to\n> disclose records from April 1988 under this request, and I do not suggest\n> that the earlier incident establishes police attendance in November or\n> December. I mention it only in case any occurrence number, location index\n> or related reference appearing in the records from the requested period\n> would be easier to identify against the same property or dispute.\n>\n> 5. Records sought and search categories\n>\n> With those identifiers in mind, the records sought remain the existing\n> records described in my original request, insofar as they fall within the\n> period and are held by South Wales Police. In particular, please search for\n> responsive:\n>\n> 1. Incident and control-room records: incident or occurrence logs, calls\n> for assistance, control-room entries, dispatch records and associated\n> incident references relating to the site or the events described above.\n>\n> 2. Police attendance and operational records: deployment, duty,\n> operational or event logs recording any police attendance, requested\n> attendance, planned response or recorded decision concerning the site, its\n> occupants, bailiffs, enforcement personnel or demolition activity.\n>\n> 3. Communications and liaison: recorded correspondence, messages,\n> telephone notes or other communications between police and local-authority\n> officers, court or enforcement personnel, the landowner or developer, their\n> representatives, or other public bodies concerning the property or events\n> during the requested period.\n>\n> 4. Requests for police assistance and public-order matters: records\n> concerning requests for assistance, access to or removal from the premises,\n> the enforcement of possession, complaints, reported disorder, obstruction,\n> public-order concerns, or action proposed or taken in connection with the\n> eviction or demolition.\n>\n> 5. Custody, search and property-related records: to the extent that\n> responsive non-personal information is held and falls within the original\n> scope, any operational references or separable non-personal information\n> concerning a possible detention, premises search, or taking or retention of\n> documents or other property during the relevant dates.\n>\n> 6. Records-management information: where a responsive record is no longer\n> held, any existing record-transfer, retention, destruction or disposal\n> entry sufficient to establish whether the record existed and, if recorded,\n> what became of it.\n>\n> I am not asserting that each category necessarily generated a record. The\n> purpose of the list is to identify the likely record types and help make\n> the search practicable.\n>\n> If the Force’s systems use different terminology, location codes,\n> occurrence categories or operational record series, please use the\n> equivalent available indexing terms where reasonably possible.\n>\n> 6.

The purpose is to help South Wales Police identify and locate existing recorded information responsive to my original request. I am not seeking to extend the period covered, require the creation of new information, or ask the Force to investigate or determine the underlying property dispute.\n\nFor clarity, the requested period remains 1 November to 31 December 1988 inclusive. My request remains for existing, non-personal recorded information only. Personal data is excluded from this FOI request and is being pursued separately through the appropriate subject-access route.\n\n1. Location and alternative site names\n\nThe property concerned is Great House Farm, also referred to as Great House and Tŷ Mawr / Ty Mawr, at Llandough-juxta-Penarth in the Vale of Glamorgan, adjoining St Dochdwy’s Church.\n\nThe following identifiers may assist searches of occurrence, incident, control-room, deployment or other operational records:\n\n- Site: Great House Farm / Great House / Tŷ Mawr / Ty Mawr.\n- Locality: Llandough-juxta-Penarth, Vale of Glamorgan, near Penarth.\n- Approximate National Grid Reference: ST 1681 7331; the less precise reference ST 168 733 may also appear.\n- Distinctive context: the family farmhouse and associated buildings that were the subject of the possession dispute and were demolished in December 1988.\n\nThe locality description is intentional: I refer to Llandough-juxta-Penarth, not the separate Llandough near Cowbridge.\n\n2. Names and organisational identifiers\n\nThe principal individual identifier is:\n\nWilliam Beverly Buckler, also referred to in contemporary reporting as William Buckler, Bill Buckler or Billy Buckler.\n\nRelevant corporate or property-related search terms include:\n\n- B.P. Properties Ltd / BP Properties Ltd, the company identified in the property litigation and associated with the demolition.\n- BP Pension Trust Ltd and Western Ground Rents Ltd, which appear in the wider historical property context. I include these names only as supplementary indexing terms; I do not assert that either organisation was involved in, or communicated with police about, an event during the requested period.\n- Vale of Glamorgan Borough Council and South Glamorgan County Council, the relevant local-government names for the period.\n- Court enforcement personnel, bailiffs and any public authority or official recorded as contacting, corresponding with, or requesting assistance from the police in relation to the property.\n\nThe following case identifiers may also be useful if records were indexed by litigation or proceedings rather than by address:\n\n- B.P. Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2.\n- Buckler v United Kingdom, European Commission of Human Rights application 14464/88, registered on 12 December 1988.\n\nThese case identifiers are offered to assist retrieval, not as an assertion that the Force necessarily held records under either reference.\n\nI am supplying names and case references as historical search identifiers. I am not asking for personal data about living individuals. Where a responsive record contains personal data, please consider whether non-personal information can be disclosed separately or after appropriate redaction.\n\n3. Chronology and specific search leads\n\nThe following events provide context for identifying any corresponding police records. They are search leads drawn from historical reporting, the heritage record and the family archive; they should not be treated as proof of police involvement.\n\n29–30 November 1988 — possession and eviction\n\nThe historical chronology records possession on 29 November 1988. A contemporaneous South Wales Echo report dated 30 November, titled “Angry scenes as farmer evicted” and attributed to Peter Bibby, describes the eviction sequence and reports that bailiffs entered the property and that the roof of an outbuilding had already been partly removed. The chronology also associates demolition of outbuildings with 30 November.\n\nThere is therefore a date distinction between the recorded possession date and the newspaper’s account of the eviction. I cannot presently reconcile the dates. Please search across both 29 and 30 November, rather than treating either as an exclusive date for the relevant incident.\n\n2–5 December 1988 — court proceedings and proposed access to belongings\n\nContemporary reporting describes further court proceedings in the days before the farmhouse was demolished, including an arrangement under which access to collect belongings was reportedly permitted subject to conditions and pending a further hearing.\n\nThe precise terms and procedural details should be verified from the original records rather than inferred from press summaries. This chronology may nevertheless help identify any police liaison, requests for assistance, public-order concerns or communications concerning access to the premises.\n\n6 December 1988 — demolition\n\nThe heritage record identifies 6 December 1988 as the demolition date. The archived historical chronology reports that a demolition team arrived in the early hours and that the farmhouse was demolished that morning.\n\nI emphasise that the reported arrival time is not evidence that police were present at that time. I am asking whether responsive police records exist, not inviting an assumption that an attendance or deployment took place.\n\n9–13 December 1988 — discrepancy requiring verification\n\nA South Wales Echo report dated 10 December 1988 appears to state that William Buckler was released on bail the previous day, which would be 9 December.\n\nSeparately, a notebook attributed to William Buckler and retained in the family archive contains an account referring to police having “locked me up for 2 weeks” and to a search involving family antiques and the taking of documents. The entry is a family-held historical account; it is not, by itself, independently verified proof of detention, a search, seizure or the precise dates involved.\n\nIf the notebook’s reference to two weeks from 29 November is literal, it would point to a date around 13 December. That does not readily reconcile with the newspaper’s reported release date of 9 December. I do not ask the Force to accept either account in preference to its own records. The discrepancy is a reason to check the relevant dates and any associated records.\n\nAccordingly, please include 29 November to 13 December 1988 when checking for any potentially relevant custody, detention, search, property-seizure, operational or cross-referenced occurrence records, while retaining the original overall FOI period of 1 November to 31 December 1988. I seek only information falling within the original request’s non-personal scope, including any separable non-personal operational information.\n\n4. Earlier event offered solely as an indexing lead\n\nThe archived historical chronology also describes a separate incident at Great House Farm on 29 April 1988, involving bailiffs and a police presence during a stand-off. The account attributes to South Wales Police the position that the officers were there to prevent a breach of the peace, rather than to assist bailiffs.\n\nThat event is outside the requested period. I am not asking you to disclose records from April 1988 under this request, and I do not suggest that the earlier incident establishes police attendance in November or December. I mention it only in case any occurrence number, location index or related reference appearing in the records from the requested period would be easier to identify against the same property or dispute.\n\n5. Records sought and search categories\n\nWith those identifiers in mind, the records sought remain the existing records described in my original request, insofar as they fall within the period and are held by South Wales Police. In particular, please search for responsive:\n\n1. Incident and control-room records: incident or occurrence logs, calls for assistance, control-room entries, dispatch records and associated incident references relating to the site or the events described above.\n\n2. Police attendance and operational records: deployment, duty, operational or event logs recording any police attendance, requested attendance, planned response or recorded decision concerning the site, its occupants, bailiffs, enforcement personnel or demolition activity.\n\n3. Communications and liaison: recorded correspondence, messages, telephone notes or other communications between police and local-authority officers, court or enforcement personnel, the landowner or developer, their representatives, or other public bodies concerning the property or events during the requested period.\n\n4. Requests for police assistance and public-order matters: records concerning requests for assistance, access to or removal from the premises, the enforcement of possession, complaints, reported disorder, obstruction, public-order concerns, or action proposed or taken in connection with the eviction or demolition.\n\n5. Custody, search and property-related records: to the extent that responsive non-personal information is held and falls within the original scope, any operational references or separable non-personal information concerning a possible detention, premises search, or taking or retention of documents or other property during the relevant dates.\n\n6. Records-management information: where a responsive record is no longer held, any existing record-transfer, retention, destruction or disposal entry sufficient to establish whether the record existed and, if recorded, what became of it.\n\nI am not asserting that each category necessarily generated a record. The purpose of the list is to identify the likely record types and help make the search practicable.\n\nIf the Force’s systems use different terminology, location codes, occurrence categories or operational record series, please use the equivalent available indexing terms where reasonably possible.\n\n6. Historical reference material\n\nFor convenience, the relevant historical chronology and case background are available here:\n\n- Archived Great House Farm Wiki homepage: https://web.archive.org/web/20260927001835/https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/\n- Archived demolition chronology: https://web.archive.org/web/20261006042123/https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/demolition-1988/\n- B.P. Properties Ltd v Buckler case page: https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/bp-properties-v-buckler/\n\nThese pages are provided as contextual aids and sources of possible search terms, not as substitutes for the Force’s own records or as claims that any particular police record exists.\n\n7. Confirmation of scope and statutory timetable\n\nI trust the above supplies the clarification you require to identify and locate the information requested.\n\nPlease confirm receipt and whether this clarification is sufficient for the Force to proceed with its searches. Please also confirm the date from which you calculate the applicable 20-working-day response period and the resulting response deadline.\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt:\n\n- the date range remains 1 November–31 December 1988 inclusive;\n- the request remains confined to existing recorded information;\n- personal data remains excluded from this FOI request and is being pursued separately through the appropriate subject-access route;\n- the historical accounts and discrepancies above are search leads, not demands that the Force accept disputed facts; and\n- I am not asking the Force to reach conclusions about ownership, the validity of court orders, the conduct of any party, or the truth of any allegation.\n\nThank you for your assistance.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a135bdc3ab000b2","subject":"RC26-0375 – thank you and three remaining points & Order for scans","name":"RC26-0375 – thank you and three remaining points & Order for scans","date":"2026-10-13T14:49:40Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a135bdc3ab000b2.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a135bdc3ab000b2-rc26-0375-thank-you-and-three-remaining-points-order-for-scans","scopeTopics":["rcahmw"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["rcahmw"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a135bdc3ab000b2","direction":"received","from":"NMR Enquiries","institutions":[{"id":"rcahmw","name":"RCAHMW (Royal Commission)"}],"refs":["RC26-0375"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a135bdc3ab000b2.json","attachments":[{"name":"LES08 Order Form 2021.docx","title":"LES08 Order Form 2021.docx","url":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/pdf/foi/2026-05-28_rcahmw_rc26-0205_les08-order-form-2021.docx","mime":"application/octet-stream","bytes":142468,"sha256":"291e3be8baf22b8f7e538ffd565e2a16462b66f5679c94ac3d72093816a18335"},{"name":"LES16 Price List 2026.pdf","title":"LES16 Price List 2026.pdf","url":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/pdf/evidence/2026-10-13_rcahmw_les16-price-list-2026.pdf","mime":"application/pdf","bytes":324233,"sha256":"141cafc6cd2b1d21902b55e3c91db2a6622afeea58fba237a0ae844c2280a3bb"}],"textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Sion Buckler,\n\nWith regard to the three remaining points noted below:\n\n1) If you would like to order scans of these items, please complete and return the attached order form.

It has my full attention now. Please disregard my last email\nin lieu of this one. Thank you in advance for your patience and\nunderstanding.\n\nMr Egan (& cc Mo),\n\nThank you for your email of 11 October 2026. I acknowledge your refusal of\nmy information request and your statement that the other matters raised in\nmy correspondence “will be considered at the October meeting of the\ncouncil”.\n\nNot to sound like a stickler, but your email does not identify the date,\ntime, venue, public-access arrangements or agenda for that meeting, nor\ndoes it direct me to a published notice containing those particulars. This\nomission prevents me from verifying when the promised consideration is to\ntake place, whether the relevant matters are scheduled for consideration,\nand whether I can attend or monitor the proceedings. Please provide those\nparticulars immediately or identify where the Council has published them.\n\nBelow are my position, formal request for an internal review, further\nrequest for recorded information and subject access request for my personal\ndata. Please record and process each part under the applicable procedure.\nNone is intended to withdraw, narrow or replace any of the others.\n\n*1. Position concerning Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr*\n\nAs stated previously and repeatedly, my research into this case concerns\nthe legitimacy of my family's historic title and the treatment of Great\nHouse Farm, its buildings and associated land.\n\nThe two-parcel estate, one parcel of which was and still appears to be\nours, is an evidence-based position advanced from the documentary record\nconcerning the distinct identities and conveyancing histories of the land.\nParcel A comprised the farmhouse, farm buildings, garden, yard, associated\nwoodland and what is now the green at Church View Close. Parcel B comprised\nthe eastern agricultural land, east of our Parcel A, which was WGR's and\nBP's parcel and the focus of their possession claim.\n\nMy argument, again, is that our parcel of land and home, dating back to\n1667, was treated as one and the same as Parcel B under the blanket term\n“whole farm”.\n\nOur Parcel A—or a synthetic imitation of it, arising from a long-running\nand rejected series of attempts to make our occupancy appear permissive—was\nstealthily registered by BP in 1983 and merged into Parcel B in 1987. My\ngrandmother died at a particularly convenient point in this sequence, and\nno notice of the registration was given during the appeal window. The\nparcels were merged in 1987 before my late father's appeal against the 1987\nruling had concluded.\n\nOur county's treasured home was also demolished in 1988, before our appeal\nhad even begun, let alone concluded, following Cadw's decision not to list\nit as a Grade II building, leaving it open to demolition.\n\nNone of this should be downgraded to speculative theory simply because the\nCouncil has not adjudicated it. The chronology of the evidence is painting\na damning picture of what appears to be everything needed to reopen this\ncase: fraud, concealment and government involvement. These are matters I am\ninvestigating, and I encourage everyone involved to conduct their own\nresearch and investigation.\n\nBefore returning to the formal substance of this communication, I will give\nyou the courtesy of some colloquialism, so that you have the courtesy from\nme of being treated like a human being and understand that you are also\ndealing with one. I have received some very gracious emails from Chris\nFranks, the coroners, and other family and community members whose families\nhave been allied with mine for decades and, in some instances, centuries.\n\nFirst, I wholeheartedly reject what I regard as a terrorist/hostage\nsituationship with local authorities here. I also reject the transformation\nof our town, county and country into one giant corporate concentration work\ncamp, with voters being imported by traitors to keep themselves in power. I\nserved under Tony Blair's orders, and I called David Cameron into an\ninternational treaty process that I helped stop at WCIT 2012. I know a\ngreat deal about what the other mammals on this island get up to.\n\nWhat happened to our stronghold, and the destruction of our ancient\nhistory, heritage and family, is tantamount to ethnic cleansing and a\ndeclaration of war on everything I hold sacred: my family, home, land,\nhistory, reality and faith. The situation was untenable enough back then.\nThe more the full picture of what happened in this case becomes apparent,\nthe less legitimacy I can accept in the occupation and rule of my\nbirthplace by the authorities currently exercising power over it.\n\nUnless I am mistaken and this has all been one big misunderstanding, with\nnobody to blame, that needs to be demonstrated through evidence and clear\nanswers. I am not receiving much reassurance from any of you that I am\nmistaken.\n\nI understood you to have already retired, which was a misunderstanding on\nmy part. Much like I misunderstood the 1987 merger of the parcels to have\noccurred in 1983 until recently, this is a complex case. I do not claim to\nunderstand every aspect of it myself. It will take a village, and I am here\nhoping to feel my village's warmth, with three others due to arrive shortly\nafter me this month.\n\nLegitimacy is the only authority I will recognise here. Two of my\nclose-protection officers are three-times-decorated Gulf War veterans and\nformer police officers, and I have shared this matter with them. If the\nlocal authorities will not cooperate, I have no issue drawing on my own\nsecurity group and resources in Britain and America. I am giving the local\nauthorities here the opportunity to answer for what you all did to my\nfamily over the past 40 years.\n\nAs you may be able to tell, I have more or less abandoned the idea that\nthis is a democracy or that a lawful system of government operates here. I\nknow the British State is a terrorist organisation because I have been part\nof the forces carrying out comparable operations to the siege and assault\non my home and family in Llandough in 1988. I was behind a machine gun in a\nhelicopter during the illegal invasion of Iraq. So, while you may fancy\nyourselves crazy here, holding my family hostage under a web of deceit, I\nmay actually be a little bit worse.\n\nMy flight back to Cardiff last month was synonymous with an earlier\nmilitary tour of the Middle East in 2005, when two SAS personnel were held\nhostage by Iraqi police and were about to be decapitated. We had to smash\ndown the prison walls and get them out. I am here to see that my family\ngets out of the captivity they are being held in. The walls of this\nterrorist/hostage situationship are not physical; they are more like some\ndemonic realm, a spell everyone has been kept under. Perhaps it is the same\nsource as whatever is going into the water that is making frogs turn gay.\n\nThe circus this case appears to be, if not rectified, will surely damn and\ncurse that small, pale village to hell. This is no small matter. The\narmed-forces world I know is nothing compared with the forces being messed\nwith in this case. None of us can now claim innocence or ignorance of the\nfacts being brought forward. My older brother, sisters, mum, aunties and\ncousins are also seeing this for the charade and circus it is. I am\nbringing the matter to everyone's attention to give you all the opportunity\nto respond. So far, all I have experienced is barriers, delays, walls,\npaywalls and excuses.\n\nYou yourself kindly pointed us towards things such as the 1939 agreement,\nwhich excludes our parcel. But let us not forget that your initial response\nwas an unwillingness to become involved.\n\nUnderstand that I bring this matter to the local authorities—whose\nlegitimacy in this case I dispute—after considerable personal trauma, a\ndifficult personal trajectory, misinformation, fragmented information and\nexpense to myself. I attended private boarding school, and my career began\nin military intelligence, but we were nevertheless knocked into a different\nlife after 1988.\n\nMore recently, I left my wife and daughter at our villa in the Caribbean\nand spent the past year in a cabin in southern Argentina, trying to\nunderstand this case. While you are all taking your merry old time dragging\nthis out for months, that has contributed to the end of my marriage and\nanother family separation. I do not know where you all imagine I am going\neach time you give me the finger.\n\nI am a military warfare professional, and I am very committed to\nunderstanding this. That is why I flew 7,000 miles to your doorstep. If\nthis is my family's land, how did it come to be that you are all on it? I\nam not convinced by the answers you keep providing.\n\nPerhaps those answers sufficed when I was an infant, my mum was pregnant\nand my dad was terminally ill. But my disabled, widowed, pensioner\ngrandmother, Mary Williams, had seven children, who had many other\nchildren, and generation on generation has now produced a small and very\nhungry army. I have more than 50 former soldiers in my US-based private\nsecurity group, with a satellite office here.\n\nI say this because my family here are a lot bigger and uglier. I am no\nlonger based here with any of you. I am resigned to the conclusion that the\nBritish State is ethnically cleansing Welsh nationals in Wales. That is why\nI am now based in Patagonia, Argentina, where Welsh nationals, our history\nand our heritage are celebrated, and where I am pursuing legal personhood\narrangements for my AI agents.\n\nI am only here to light the metaphorical fuse of this powder keg. The\naftermath will be between the local authorities and everyone affected by\nwhat has happened. I am quietly gathering evidence, particularly for the\nreplica of Great House Farm I am constructing in Patagonia as a museum and\nthird home. If I uncover fraud, concealment and government involvement in\nthat process, so be it. The case reopens.\n\nhttps://bpvsbuckler.bucklerfamily.estate\n\nMy wife, soon to be my ex-wife, and I will not even allow our unregistered\ndaughter to set foot in Wales until it is decolonised or the British\nEstablishment and UK Government have been overthrown.\n\nI also exported my dog from our livery yard in Monknash in 2024 after an\nAfghan migrant entered our horse yard and indoor riding school, allegedly\nattempting to steal and eat him.\n\nMy first child was abducted at 36 days old in 2013 and has never been seen\nby me again. It feels as though a demonic realm is ruling this island and\neveryone is under its spell.\n\nThe reason my business associates, former soldiers and family members are\ngathering around this matter and flying into the region is that, if I am\nright about this case and corruption in the local authorities, it is the\ncatalyst and nexus event of the land-market bubble we are now experiencing.\nI am not saying that this case alone meets the threshold for reopening; I\nam saying that it may be one of the earliest, possibly the first, of many\nparallel cases nationwide.\n\nThat means there is a very real possibility of something like what we saw\nin Cyprus, in which I was directly involved while serving as guard\ncommander at RAF Akrotiri. In that context, the United Nations in Nicosia\nwould have to award land back to its native owners after decades of\noccupation or provide reparations. Decolonisation is not all political and\nfigurative; it is very literal, Paul. It is logistical and operational. You\nwill soon see that through this case or the increasing number of others now\nemerging nationwide.\n\nHaving recently worked on setting up the car-finance reparations claims\nscheme and its information systems, against the background of the FCA's\nwork and last year's court rulings, I see a definite parallel here as more\ncases resembling my family's experience in Llandough emerge nationally and\nglobally.\n\nDo you see the parallel? The following websites illustrate it. In my view,\nneither underlying system should be able to function as it currently does\nwithout scrutiny and accountability.\n\nhttps://car.financecheque.uk\n\nhttps://bucklerfamily.estate\n\nBut I digress. To continue from my earlier point, I am not asking Llandough\nCommunity Council to adjudicate title or pronounce on matters outside its\nlegal remit. The Council's institutional authority is not itself proof of\nthe legitimacy of a title position. Its responsibility is to account\naccurately for its own records, knowledge, representations, decisions and\nreferrals, and to disclose the recorded information it holds.\n\nThe question of legitimacy must be assessed against the underlying\ndocuments and relevant legal acts, rather than presumed from administrative\nstatus or the repetition of an earlier account. I expect the Council to\ndistinguish primary documentary evidence, recorded statements, family\nevidence and inference when dealing with these matters.\n\n*2. Formal request for internal review — refusal dated 11 October 2026*\n\nPlease treat this section as my formal request for an internal review of\nthe refusal of my original request, submitted on 21 September 2026.\n\nThat request covered:\n\n   1. Records created after 2002 concerning Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr,\n   Church View Close, the green—including references to VG41—and the roadside\n   verge beside the churchyard wall.\n   2. Photographs, postcards and other images, of any date, depicting the\n   farmhouse, farm buildings, green or surrounding church area.\n   3. Records concerning material transferred from Penarth Town Council\n   during the 1982 local-government reorganisation, and information held by\n   the Council about the whereabouts or deposit of earlier Llandough community\n   records.\n\nYour refusal explains that searching minutes and related documentation\nacross a period of approximately 2002–2016 would exceed the appropriate\ncost limit. It refers to 224 sets of records and estimates 20 minutes to\nread each set and a further 10 minutes to assess it, but gives a total of\n2,240 minutes, or approximately 37 hours.\n\nThose figures are internally inconsistent. At 30 minutes per set, 224 sets\nwould amount to 6,720 minutes, or 112 hours. The stated 2,240 minutes\nequates to 10 minutes per set. More importantly, the response does not\nexplain precisely which activities have been included in the estimate.\n\nPlease have the reviewer consider the following matters:\n\n   - How the estimate was calculated, including the number and nature of\n   the records assumed to require examination.\n   - Whether the estimate was applied to every part of the request,\n   including photographic material and records concerning the 1982 transfer,\n   rather than treating all categories as if they required the same search.\n   - Whether existing indexes, catalogues, minute headings, document\n   descriptions, filing systems or other finding aids permit targeted searches\n   before individual records are examined.\n   - Whether a targeted search using the place names, former names, dates\n   and subjects identified in my request could provide a materially less\n   costly route to the information.\n   - Whether the requested environmental information must be considered\n   under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004, rather than being\n   refused solely by reference to the Freedom of Information Act cost limit.\n\nPlease identify how the stated 20 minutes for reading and 10 minutes for\nassessment per set correspond to the permitted activities under regulation\n4(3) of the Freedom of Information and Data Protection (Appropriate Limit\nand Fees) Regulations 2004. In particular, distinguish time spent\ndetermining whether the requested information is held, locating, retrieving\nor extracting it from time spent on activities that cannot lawfully be\nincluded in the section 12 estimate.\n\nIf the Council relies on regulation 12(4)(b) of the Environmental\nInformation Regulations, please identify that exception expressly, provide\nthe relevant reasoning and carry out the required public-interest\nassessment, including the presumption in favour of disclosure. Do not treat\nthe FOIA section 12 estimate as a substitute for determining which legal\nregime applies to each category.\n\nPlease also address the duty to provide reasonable advice and assistance\nunder section 16 FOIA and, where applicable, regulation 9 of the\nEnvironmental Information Regulations. Your suggestion that I narrow the\ndate range to 2002–2006 is noted, but I ask the reviewer to consider what\ntargeted searches or available indexes could reasonably be used to address\nthe original request before concluding that the information cannot be\nprovided.\n\nPlease confirm receipt of this internal review request, identify who will\nconduct the review, and provide the anticipated response date. Where\nreasonably practicable, the review should be undertaken by someone\nindependent of the original refusal.\n\n*3. Further request for recorded information — 1986–1990 and associated\nland matters*\n\nIn addition to the original request, please treat this section as a new\nrequest for recorded information under FOIA and, where applicable, the\nEnvironmental Information Regulations. It is directed to records held by\nthe Council and does not presume that any particular document exists.\n\n*A. Great House Farm: occupation, title, development and demolition*\n\nPlease disclose minutes, agendas, reports, correspondence, letters, notes,\ncomplaints, representations, referrals and other recorded information\ncreated between 1 January 1986 and 31 December 1990 concerning Great House\nFarm / Tŷ Mawr, including its occupation, title, tenure, proposed\ndevelopment, removal of the occupants, or demolition of the farmhouse and\nassociated buildings.\n\nThis includes records of communications with Vale of Glamorgan Council,\nplanning authorities, developers, solicitors, landowners, police, heritage\nbodies or other public authorities concerning those subjects.\n\nPlease include any records containing statements attributed to my late\nfather, William “Billy” Buckler, about the property, occupation, title or\nalleged fraud. References to alleged fraud identify a subject for the\nsearch; they are not a claim that a Council record or finding establishing\nfraud necessarily exists.\n\n*B. Planning records and annexes*\n\nPlease identify and disclose the Council-held planning records, plans,\nsupporting documents, annexes, correspondence and associated material\nrelating to application 89/01396/OUT and any related consideration of the\nredevelopment of the site.\n\nI have been unable to locate certain associated annexes in my copy. Please\nconfirm whether the Council holds them and, if not, whether its records\nidentify another custodian or archive.\n\n*C. Green, verge, trees and woodland*\n\nPlease disclose records held by the Council concerning the history, status,\nboundaries, maintenance, planting, ownership representations or public use\nof the green, the roadside verge beside the churchyard wall, and the\nwoodland associated with the former farm.\n\nThis includes relevant correspondence, complaints, maps, plans, site-visit\nrecords, referrals and communications with landowners, residents,\ncharities, Vale of Glamorgan Council or other responsible bodies.\n\nI have also received information raising a concern that some gardens at\nChurch View Close may extend beyond their recorded boundaries into\nadjoining woodland. I identify this as an unverified concern requiring\ndocumentary clarification, not as an established finding of encroachment or\nwrongdoing. Please disclose any Council-held records relating to the\nboundaries, complaints or enquiries about this area.\n\nI recognise that the official VG41 registration file is understood to be\nheld by Vale of Glamorgan Council. I am requesting records held by\nLlandough Community Council, including any copies, correspondence,\nrepresentations or referrals concerning the green or its registration. I am\nnot suggesting that this Council is the custodian of another authority's\nfile.\n\nPlease search relevant paper and electronic records, including\ncorrespondence and records held in archived or transferred collections that\nremain accessible to the Council. If any part of this request is considered\ntoo broad, please identify the specific part and explain what narrower\nsearch is practicable. If records are not held, please say so and identify\nany known transfer or deposit location where possible.\n\n*4. Subject access request — my personal data*\n\nSeparately, I make a subject access request under Article 15 of the UK GDPR\nand the Data Protection Act 2018 for personal data about me, Sion Buckler,\nheld by the Council.\n\nThe request covers personal data concerning my childhood association with\nGreat House Farm, the events surrounding the removal of my family from the\nfarmhouse and its demolition in 1988, and subsequent Council records\nreferring to me or recording information about me in connection with these\nevents.\n\nPlease search relevant Council-held correspondence, minutes, reports,\nnotes, referrals, photographs and other records, whether paper or\nelectronic. This request concerns my personal data; it is not a request for\nunrestricted disclosure of every record concerning my late father or the\nproperty.\n\nPlease acknowledge this as a subject access request and deal with it under\nthe applicable data-protection procedure. If you require proportionate\nidentification information to verify my identity, please specify what is\nrequired.\n\n*5. Matters said to be for the “October meeting”*\n\nYour email of 11 October states that other matters raised in my\ncorrespondence “will be considered at the October meeting of the council”\nand that you will provide the Council's views afterwards.\n\nPlease confirm whether that meeting has already taken place.\n\nIf it has, please provide the exact date, the relevant agenda and papers,\nthe minutes or other formal record of consideration, and any decision or\naction arising in relation to the matters I raised.\n\nIf it has not yet taken place, please provide the confirmed date, time,\nvenue and public-access arrangements, together with the draft or published\nagenda showing which of my matters are scheduled for consideration.\n\nThose matters include:\n\n   - The Council's historic knowledge of Great House Farm, its surroundings\n   and the green, and any representations or records it holds concerning these\n   matters.\n   - The available documentary and photographic record relating to the site\n   and its redevelopment.\n   - The concerns raised about the adjoining woodland and garden\n   boundaries, insofar as they fall within the Council's records or remit.\n   - The availability of the relevant planning annexes and the location of\n   any missing records.\n   - Whether the Council would consider suitable historical interpretation\n   or a memorial for the former farmhouse and its significance to the local\n   community.\n\nI also repeat my request that the Council pass my contact details to any\nformer councillor, clerk or local resident who is willing to contact me\nabout relevant historical knowledge. I am not asking the Council to\ndisclose those individuals' personal contact details without their consent.\n\nI remain willing to give a short presentation on the documentary record at\nno charge if the Council considers that useful. Please record the offer and\nadvise whether it will be considered.\n\nIf the meeting is open to the public, please also advise how a member of\nthe public may make representations on relevant business, having regard to\nsection 48 of the Local Government and Elections (Wales) Act 2021 and the\nCouncil's meeting arrangements.\n\nIf the Council does not provide these particulars or identify the relevant\npublished notice, please explain the basis on which I am expected to verify\nthat the promised consideration has occurred or will occur. I will retain\nthe omission and any subsequent response as part of the record of the\nCouncil's handling of these matters.\n\n*6. Clerk's appointment and responsibility for records*\n\nFor completeness, I ask for clarification of the present clerking and\nrecords arrangements because they bear directly on the identification and\ncustody of the records requested, and on responsibility for reviewing the\nrefusal.\n\nI have seen public references to your retirement from a separate role with\nOne Voice Wales in 2026, earlier references in 2021 to possible retirement\nfrom Llandough Community Council, and subsequent discussion about whether\nthe Council had a clerk. I do not treat those references or social-media\ncomments as verified facts, and I draw no adverse inference from them. I\nraise the matter openly because responsibility for the Council's records\nand for reviewing the refusal should be clear.\n\nPlease confirm:\n\n   - Whether you currently hold the appointment of Clerk to Llandough\n   Community Council and act as its Proper Officer.\n   - Whether any change of appointment, acting arrangement or transfer of\n   responsibility has affected the custody or management of the relevant\n   records.\n   - Who is currently responsible for the Council's records and who will\n   conduct the internal review.\n\n*7. Charges and response*\n\nI have not authorised any discretionary paid search. Please do not treat\nthis email as agreement to incur a charge. If you consider that any part of\nthe request may lawfully attract a fee, please identify the legal basis,\nthe precise work proposed and the amount in writing before proceeding on\nthat basis.\n\nPlease acknowledge each procedural element of this email, distinguish the\ninternal review from the further information request and subject access\nrequest, and identify any part you consider cannot be processed as\nsubmitted, together with the reason and the available remedy.\n\nI expect the Council's response to address the recorded evidence and the\napplicable obligations directly. I am not asking the Council to endorse my\nconclusions merely because I advance them; I am asking it to disclose and\naccount for the records within its custody and to distinguish what the\nrecords establish from what remains uncertain.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Sun, 11 Oct 2026, 10:42 Paul Egan, <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler,\n>\n> Thank you for your email of  21 September 2026 making a request for\n> information.\n>\n> We are treating your correspondence as a request for information under the\n> Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the act).\n>\n> Under the provisions of the act and as defined by \"The Freedom of\n> Information and Data Protection (Appropriate Limit and Fees) Regulations\n> 2004\" (the regulations) , an authority is not obliged to comply with a\n> request for information if the authority estimates that the cost of\n> complying with the request would exceed the \"appropriate limit\".

I acknowledge your refusal of my\ninformation request and also the other matters raised in my correspondence\n“will be considered at the October meeting of the council”.\n\nNot to sound like a stickler but your email doesn't identify the date,\ntime, venue, public-access arrangements or agenda for that meeting, or\ndirect me to a published notice containing those particulars. This omission\nprevents me from verifying when the promised consideration is to take\nplace, whether the relevant matters are scheduled for consideration, and\nwhether I can attend or monitor the proceedings. Please provide those\nparticulars immediately or identify where the Council has published them.\n\nBelow is my position, formal requests an internal review, and further\nrequest for recorded information, and constitutes a subject access request\nfor my personal data. Please record and process each part under the\napplicable procedure. None is intended to withdraw, narrow or replace the\nothers.\n1. Position concerning Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr\n\nAs stated previously and repeatedly, my research of this case concerns the\nlegitimacy of my families historic title and the treatment of Great House\nFarm, its buildings and associated land. The two-parcel estate, one of\nwhich was and still appears to be ours, is an evidence-based position\nadvanced from the documentary record concerning the distinct identities and\nconveyancing histories i.e. Parcel A—the farmhouse, farm buildings, garden,\nyard,  associated woodland and what is now church view close green —and\nParcel B: the eastern agricultural land, east of our Parcel A and what was\nWGR and BP's parcel and the focus on their possession. My argument is,\nagain - that our parcel of land and home since 1667, was treated as one and\nthe same as Parcel B under the blanket term \"whole farm\".\n\nOur Parcel A (or a synthetic mimic of it, born from a long running and\nrejected string of attempts to make our occupancy appear permissive) was\nstealthfully registered by BP in 1983 and merged into their Parcel B in\n1987 - my grandmother conveniently dying and no notice given of the\nregistration in the appeal window. Much like the 87 stealthful merge of\nparcels before my late fathers appeal of the 87 ruling concluded. Our\ncounty treasure home was also demolished in 88 before our appeal had even\nbegun, let alone concluded, of CADW's decision not to list it as a Grade II\nso it couldn't be demolished.\n\nSpell and grammar check. Also make it less abhorrent but don't lose any of\nwhat is being said or be apologetic. This is a statement of truth , my\ntruth. `None of this should be downgraded to a speculative theory simply\nbecause the Council has not adjudicated it. The chronology of evidence is\npainting a damning picture of what looks to be everything needed to reopen\nthis case I.e. fraud, concealment and government involvement. Which I am\ninvestigating and I would encourage you to all do your own research and\ninvestigate too.\n\n\nI'll give you the courtesy of some colloquialism before I revert back to\nprofessionalism with this communication so you have the courtesy from me of\nbeing treated like a human. And so you know you are also dealing with a\nhuman. I also got some very gracious emails from Chris Frank's and the\ncorriners and other family and community members who's families have been\nallied with my family for decades and even centuries here.\n\n\nFirstly I am whole heartedly rejecting this terrorist/ hostage\nsituationship with local authorities here. And our town and county and\ncountry, being turned into one giant corporate concentration work camp.\nWith voters being imported by traitors to keep themselves in power. I was\nunder Tony Blairs orders and I called David Cameron into an international\ntreaty I stopped (WCIT 2012), so I know a lot of the stuff the other\nmammals on this island get upto.\n\n\nWhat happened to our stronghold and the destruction of our ancient history\nand herritage and family is tandamount to ethnic cleansing and a\ndeclaration of war on all I hold sacred like my family, home, land,\nhistory, reality and faith. The situation was untenable enough back then,\nbut the more the full picture of what happened in this case becomes\napparent the more your regimes occupancy and rule over my birthland will\nget to justify. Unless I'm mistaken and this has all been a big\nmisunderstanding and nobody is to blame. But I am not getting much\nreassurance from any of you lot here, that I'm mistaken. I did understand\nyou to have already retired, which was a misunderstanding on my part. Much\nlike I misunderstood the 87 merger of parcels to have occurred in 83 up\nuntil recently. This is a complex case and I don't claim to fully\nunderstand it myself. It will take a village. And I'm here hoping to feel\nmy villages warmth. With some 3 others flying in closely behind me this\nmonth. Legitimacy is the only authority I will recognise here. Two of my\nclose protection officers are both three time decorated gulf war veterans\nand former police and I have passed this to them too. If local authories\nhere won't co-operate, I have no issues using my own security group and\nresources. In Britain and America. I give you local authories here the\nopportunity to answer to what you all did to my family over 40 years.\n\n\nAs you may be able to tell i've near enough abandoned the idea this is a\ndemocracy or any lawful system of government here.  I know the British\nState is a terrorist organisation because I was like the forces that did\nthe siege and assult on my home and family in Llandough in 1988. Except I\nwas behind a machine gun in a helicopter in the illegal invasion of Iraq.\nSo you all might fancy yourselves to be crazy here, holding my family\nhostage under a web of deceipt, but I may actuallt be a little bit worse.\n\n\nMy flight back here to Cardiff last month is synonymous with an old\nmilitary tour of the middle east I was in, in 2005 - where two SAS were\nheld hostage by Iraqi police and about to be decapitated, so we had to\nsmash down the prison walls and get them out. I'm here to see to it my\nfamily get out of this captivity they're being held in. The walls in this\nterrorist/ hostage situationship here just aren't physical, but more like\nsome demonic realm spell everyones kept under. Maybe the same source and\nwhatever goes into the water that's making frogs turn gay.\n\n\nThe circus this case appears to be, if not rectified, will surely damn and\ncurse that small pale village to hell. It's no small matter. The armed\nforces world I'm in is nothing compared to the forces being messed with in\nthis case. We are no longer all within innocence or ignorance of the facts\nof this case now either. My older brother, sisters, mum, aunties, cousins\nare all seeing this as the charade and circus it is too. I'm bringing it to\nall your attentions to give you all the opportunity to respond to this. So\nfar all I've experienced is a lot of barriers, delays, walls (paywalls) and\nexcuses. You yourself kindly pointed us to things like the 1939 agreement\nwhich excludes our parcel, but let's not forget your initial response was\nan unwillingness to become involved.\n\n\nUnderstand I bring this to local authorities, (arguably illegitimate in\nthis case and so arguably an authority) through a lot of personal trauma,\ntrajectory and mis information and fragmented info and expense to myself. I\nwent to private boarding school and my career began in military\nintelligence, but we still got nocked into a different life after 1988.\n\n\nMore recently I left my wife and daughter andspend at our villa in the\nCaribbean to spend the time it took me, in a cabin in south Argentina the\nlast year, just to wrap my own head around this case. So while you're all\ntaking your merry old time dragging this out for months, that's the end of\nmy marriage and another family. But I don't know where you all imagine I'm\ngoing each time you all give me the finger?\n\n\nI'm a military warfare professional and I am very  committed to\nunderstanding this. Hence why I just flew 7,000 miles to your doorsteps. If\nthat's my land, how did it come to be you are you all on it? I'm not\nconvinced by the answers you all keep providing. While I was an infant it\nmay have sufficed, or my mum pregnant, my dad terminally ill. But my\ndisabled widow pensioner grandmother  Mary Williams had 7 children, who had\nmany other children, and generation on we now have a small and very hungry\narmy here. I now have more than 50 former soldiers in my US-based private\nsecurity group, with our satellite office here.\n\n\nBut I say this to say my family here are a lot bigger and uglier. And I'm\nnot based here anymore with any of you. I'm resigned to the fact the\nBrit'ish State is ethnically cleansing Welsh Nationals in Wales, which is\nwhy I am now based in Patagonia, Argentina where my AI agents have their\nown legal personhood coming and where us Welsh Nationals and our history\nand heritage is celebrated. I'm only here to light the metaphorical fuse of\nthis powder ceg. The aftermath of it will be between you local authorities\nand all of them. I'm just quietly gathering my evidence, more so for the\nreplica Great House Farm I'm constructing is a museum and third home in\nPatagonia. And if I unravel any fraud, concealment and government\ninvolvement in that process then so be it. The case reopens.\n\n\n https://bpvsbuckler.bucklerfamily.estate\n\n\nMy wife (soon to be ex) and I, won't even let our unregistered daughter\nstep foot in Wales until its decolonised or the Brit'ish Establishment/ UK\nGovernment has been overthrown. I even exported my dog from our livery yard\nin Monknash in 2024 after an afghan migrant was in our horse yard and\nindoor riding school trying to steal and eat him. My first child here was\nabducted at 36 days old and was never seen again from 2013, it's like a\ndemonic realm is ruling this island and everyone's under its spell.\n\n\nThe reason my business associates and soldiers and family are all\ncongregating around this matter and flying into this region, is because if\nI'm right about this case and corruption in local authorities here, this is\nthe catalyst and nexus event of a land market bubble we're in. This isn't\nto say this is the case to meet the threshold to reopen, but its one of the\nearliest, possibly first of many parallel cases nationwide. Meaning there's\na very real likelihood of what we saw in places like Cyprus, which I was\ndirectly involved with while operating as guard commander for RAF Akrotiri,\nwhereby the UN in Nicosia would have to award land back to natives after\ndecades of occupation. Or procide reporations. Decolonisation isn't all\npolitical and figurative, its very literal Paul. Logistically and\noperationally. Which you'll soon see in this case or the increasing others\nnow emerging nationwide.\n\n\nHaving just worked on setting up the whole car finance reporations claim\nscheme and information systems, with all the FCA and court ruling last year\nand so forth, I see a definite parallel here as more cases paralleling my\nfamilies case in Llandough emerge, nationwide and even globally.\n\n\nDo you see the parallel? Here is an illustration. Neither should be\nfunctional.\n\n\nhttps://car.financecheque.uk\n\n\nhttps://bucklerfamily.estate`\n\n\nBelow is a **revised** version that keeps your position, allegations,\npersonal history and demands intact, while replacing insults and language\nthat could be read as threats with firm, direct wording. I have not\nfact-checked the claims; contested conclusions remain expressed as your\nposition rather than as independently established findings.\n\n\n***\n\n\nPaul,\n\n\nNone of this should be reduced to speculative theory simply because the\nCouncil has not adjudicated it. The chronology of the evidence is painting\na damning picture of what appears to be grounds for reopening this case:\nfraud, concealment and government involvement. These are matters I am\ninvestigating, and I encourage everyone involved to conduct their own\nresearch and investigation.\n\n\nBefore returning to the formal substance of this communication, I want to\nspeak plainly and personally. There is a human being behind this\ncorrespondence, just as there is one receiving it. I have also received\nsome very gracious emails from Chris Franks, the coroners, and members of\nfamilies and communities whose connections with my family go back decades\nand, in some instances, centuries.\n\n\nFirst, I reject what I regard as a coercive, hostage-like relationship with\nthe local authorities. I also reject what I see as the transformation of\nour town, county and country into a system of corporate control, and the\nuse of inward migration to sustain those in power. These are serious\npolitical objections, not casual remarks. I served under Tony Blair’s\norders, and I called David Cameron into the international treaty process\nthat I maintain I helped stop at WCIT 2012. My perspective is informed by\ndirect experience of government and international affairs.\n\n\nWhat happened to our stronghold, and the destruction of our ancient\nhistory, heritage and family life, is, in my view, tantamount to ethnic\ncleansing. I regard it as an attack on everything I hold sacred: my family,\nhome, land, history, reality and faith. The situation was untenable then.\nAs the full picture becomes clearer, I find the legitimacy of the\nauthorities’ occupation and governance of my birthplace increasingly\ndifficult to accept.\n\n\nIf this has all been a profound misunderstanding, and nobody is responsible\nfor wrongdoing, then that needs to be demonstrated through evidence and\nclear answers. So far, I have received little reassurance from any of you\nthat my interpretation is mistaken.\n\n\nI acknowledge my own misunderstandings. I understood that you had already\nretired, which was incorrect. Until recently, I also believed the 1987\nmerger of parcels had occurred in 1983. This is a complex case, and I do\nnot claim to understand every aspect of it. Resolving it will require a\ncollective effort. I am looking for support and openness from my community,\nwith three other people due to arrive shortly after me this month.\n\n\nLegitimacy is the only basis on which I will recognise authority here. Two\nof my close-protection officers are former police officers and\nthree-times-decorated Gulf War veterans. I have shared this matter with\nthem. If the local authorities will not cooperate, I will draw on my own\nsecurity group and resources in Britain and America to support my personal\nprotection, research and lawful pursuit of accountability. I am giving the\nauthorities an opportunity to explain what happened to my family over the\npast 40 years.\n\n\nAs you may be able to tell, I have largely lost confidence that the system\noperating here is democratic or lawful. I regard the British State’s\nconduct towards my family as terroristic. The siege and assault on our home\nand family in Llandough in 1988 carries particular significance for me\nbecause I later served on the other side of military operations, behind a\nmachine gun in a helicopter during what I regard as the illegal invasion of\nIraq. I understand the force and consequences of such operations from\npersonal experience. That history informs the seriousness of my position;\nit is not a threat.\n\n\nMy return to Cardiff last month brought back memories of a military tour in\nthe Middle East in 2005, when two SAS personnel were held by Iraqi police\nand, as I understood the situation, faced imminent execution. We had to\nbreak through the prison walls to get them out. I am now seeking to free my\nfamily from what I regard as a different kind of captivity: one maintained\nthrough disputed records, concealment, institutional barriers and a\ncontinuing lack of answers.\n\n\nThe walls in this case are not physical. They are the structures of\nmisinformation, obstruction and control that, in my view, have kept people\nfrom understanding what happened. At times, the situation has felt so\ndistorted and oppressive that ordinary explanations seem inadequate.\n\n\nIf this case is not properly addressed, I believe the consequences for the\nvillage and the institutions involved could be profound. This is not a\nsmall matter. My military experience does not diminish the importance of\nthe family, historical and moral issues at stake here.\n\n\nNor can everyone involved continue to claim ignorance of the information\nnow being brought forward. My older brother, sisters, mother, aunties and\ncousins also see this as a charade. I am bringing it to your attention so\nthat everyone concerned has an opportunity to respond.\n\n\nSo far, I have encountered barriers, delays, paywalls and excuses. You\nkindly directed us to material such as the 1939 agreement, which excludes\nour parcel. I acknowledge that assistance. However, your initial response\nwas that you were unwilling to become involved, and that remains part of\nthe history of this correspondence.\n\n\nPlease understand that I bring this matter to the local authorities—whose\nlegitimacy in this case I dispute—after considerable personal trauma,\nmisinformation, fragmented information and expense. I attended private\nboarding school, and my career began in military intelligence, but the\nevents of 1988 nevertheless pushed our family into a fundamentally\ndifferent life.\n\n\nMore recently, I left my wife and daughter at our villa in the Caribbean\nand spent the past year in a cabin in southern Argentina, trying to\nunderstand this case. The time and strain involved have contributed to the\nbreakdown of my marriage and another family separation. While\ncorrespondence continues to be delayed for months, those personal\nconsequences are real and ongoing. Each dismissal or inadequate response\nadds to them.\n\n\nI am a military professional, and I am committed to understanding what\nhappened. That is why I flew 7,000 miles to seek answers in person. If this\nis my family’s land, how did others come to occupy it? I remain unconvinced\nby the explanations being provided.\n\n\nThose explanations may have gone unchallenged when I was an infant, my\nmother was pregnant and my father was terminally ill. But my grandmother,\nMary Williams—a disabled, widowed pensioner—had seven children, who in turn\nhad children of their own. Our family has grown considerably, and many of\nus now want answers.\n\n\nI also have more than 50 former soldiers in my US-based private security\ngroup, with a satellite office here. I mention this to explain the\nresources and support available to me, not to suggest that this dispute\nshould be resolved through force. My family’s determination to establish\nthe truth extends well beyond me.\n\n\nI am no longer based here. I have reached the conclusion that the British\nState is engaged in the ethnic cleansing of Welsh nationals in Wales. That\nis part of why I am now based in Patagonia, Argentina, where our Welsh\nhistory and heritage are celebrated, and where I am pursuing legal\npersonhood arrangements for my AI agents.\n\n\nMy purpose here is to bring the evidence into the open and initiate\naccountability. The authorities will then have to address the concerns of\nthe wider family and others affected. I am gathering evidence partly for\nthe replica of Great House Farm that I am constructing in Patagonia as a\nmuseum and third home. If that process establishes fraud, concealment and\ngovernment involvement, I will pursue the reopening of the case.\n\n\n[https://bpvsbuckler.bucklerfamily.estate](\nhttps://bpvsbuckler.bucklerfamily.estate)\n\n\nMy wife, from whom I am separating, and I will not allow our daughter,\nwhose birth is unregistered, to set foot in Wales unless it is decolonised\nor the present British establishment and system of government are replaced.\n\n\nI also exported my dog from our livery yard in Monknash in 2024 following\nan incident in which, according to my account, an Afghan migrant entered\nour horse yard and indoor riding school and attempted to steal him. I\nbelieved the intention was to eat him.\n\n\nMy first child was abducted at 36 days old in 2013, and I have not seen\nthat child since. Experiences such as these have left me with a profound\nsense that the institutions operating here are failing to protect my\nfamily. At times, that experience has felt almost demonic in its cruelty\nand incomprehensibility.\n\n\nMy business associates, former soldiers and family members are gathering\naround this matter, with some travelling into the region, because they\nunderstand its potential significance. If my interpretation of this case\nand the alleged corruption within the local authorities is correct, the\nimplications may extend beyond one family’s property dispute and into the\nwider land market.\n\n\nI am not suggesting that those broader implications alone establish the\nthreshold for reopening this case. I am saying that ours may be one of the\nearliest—possibly the first—of a series of parallel cases nationwide.\n\n\nI see a potential parallel with Cyprus, where I served as guard commander\nat RAF Akrotiri. My understanding of the situation there involved the\nUnited Nations in Nicosia and questions of returning land to its original\ninhabitants after decades of occupation, or providing reparations. That\nexperience informs how I view the possibilities here.\n\n\nDecolonisation is not merely political or figurative, Paul. It concerns\nland, ownership, restitution and practical implementation. I believe those\nissues will become increasingly apparent through this case and others now\nemerging nationwide.\n\n\nHaving recently worked on establishing the car-finance compensation claims\nscheme and its information systems, against the background of the FCA’s\nwork and last year’s court rulings, I see a further parallel. Individual\ncases can expose wider patterns and lead to scrutiny of an entire system.\nAs cases resembling my family’s experience in Llandough emerge nationally\nand internationally, that possibility deserves serious attention.\n\n\nDo you see the parallel? The websites below illustrate the comparison I am\ndrawing. In my view, neither underlying system should be able to continue\nfunctioning as it does without scrutiny and accountability.\n\nhttps://car.financecheque.uk\n\nhttps://bucklerfamily.estate\n\n\n... but I digress. To continue from my earlier point I'm not asking\nLlandough Community Council to adjudicate title or pronounce upon matters\noutside its legal remit. The Council’s institutional authority is not\nitself proof of the legitimacy of a title position. Its responsibility is\nto account accurately for its own records, knowledge, representations,\ndecisions and referrals, and to disclose the recorded information it holds.\n\nThe question of legitimacy must be assessed against the underlying\ndocuments and relevant legal acts, rather than presumed from administrative\nstatus or the repetition of an earlier account. I expect the Council to\ndistinguish primary documentary evidence, recorded statements, family\nevidence and inference when dealing with these matters.\n2. Formal request for internal review — refusal dated 11 October 2026\n\nPlease treat this section as my formal request for an internal review of\nthe refusal of my original request submitted on 21 September 2026.\n\nThat request covered:\n\n   1. Records created after 2002 concerning Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr,\n   Church View Close, the green—including references to VG41—and the roadside\n   verge beside the churchyard wall.\n   2. Photographs, postcards and other images, of any date, depicting the\n   farmhouse, farm buildings, green or surrounding church area.\n   3. Records concerning material transferred from Penarth Town Council\n   during the 1982 local-government reorganisation, and information held by\n   the Council about the whereabouts or deposit of earlier Llandough community\n   records.\n\nYour refusal explains that searching minutes and related documentation\nacross a period of approximately 2002–2016 would exceed the appropriate\ncost limit. It refers to 224 sets of records and estimates 20 minutes to\nread each set and a further 10 minutes to assess it, but gives a total of\n2,240 minutes, or approximately 37 hours.\n\nThose figures are internally inconsistent. At 30 minutes per set, 224 sets\nwould amount to 6,720 minutes, or 112 hours. The stated 2,240 minutes\nequates to 10 minutes per set. More importantly, the response does not\nexplain precisely which activities have been included in the estimate.\n\nPlease have the reviewer consider the following matters:\n\n   - How the estimate was calculated, including the number and nature of\n   the records assumed to require examination.\n   - Whether the estimate was applied to every part of the request,\n   including photographic material and records concerning the 1982 transfer,\n   rather than treating all categories as if they required the same search.\n   - Whether existing indexes, catalogues, minute headings, document\n   descriptions, filing systems or other finding aids permit targeted searches\n   before individual records are examined.\n   - Whether a targeted search using the place names, former names, dates\n   and subjects identified in my request could provide a materially less\n   costly route to the information.\n   - Whether the requested environmental information must be considered\n   under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004, rather than being\n   refused solely by reference to the Freedom of Information Act cost limit.\n\nPlease identify how the stated 20 minutes for reading and 10 minutes for\nassessment per set correspond to the permitted activities under regulation\n4(3) of the Freedom of Information and Data Protection (Appropriate Limit\nand Fees) Regulations 2004. In particular, distinguish time spent\ndetermining whether the requested information is held, locating, retrieving\nor extracting it from time spent on activities that cannot lawfully be\nincluded in the section 12 estimate.\n\nIf the Council relies on regulation 12(4)(b) of the Environmental\nInformation Regulations, please identify that exception expressly, provide\nthe relevant reasoning and carry out the required public-interest\nassessment, including the presumption in favour of disclosure. Do not treat\nthe FOIA section 12 estimate as a substitute for determining which legal\nregime applies to each category.\n\nPlease also address the duty to provide reasonable advice and assistance\nunder section 16 FOIA and, where applicable, regulation 9 of the\nEnvironmental Information Regulations. Your suggestion that I narrow the\ndate range to 2002–2006 is noted, but I ask the reviewer to consider what\ntargeted searches or available indexes could reasonably be used to address\nthe original request before concluding that the information cannot be\nprovided.\n\nPlease confirm receipt of this internal review request, identify who will\nconduct the review, and provide the anticipated response date. Where\nreasonably practicable, the review should be undertaken by someone\nindependent of the original refusal.\n3. Further request for recorded information — 1986–1990 and associated land\nmatters\n\nIn addition to the original request, please treat this section as a new\nrequest for recorded information under FOIA and, where applicable, the\nEnvironmental Information Regulations. It is directed to records held by\nthe Council and does not presume that any particular document exists.\n\n*A. Great House Farm: occupation, title, development and demolition*\n\nPlease disclose minutes, agendas, reports, correspondence, letters, notes,\ncomplaints, representations, referrals and other recorded information\ncreated between 1 January 1986 and 31 December 1990 concerning Great House\nFarm / Tŷ Mawr, including its occupation, title, tenure, proposed\ndevelopment, removal of the occupants or demolition of the farmhouse and\nassociated buildings.\n\nThis includes records of communications with Vale of Glamorgan Council,\nplanning authorities, developers, solicitors, landowners, police, heritage\nbodies or other public authorities concerning those subjects.\n\nPlease include any records containing statements attributed to my late\nfather, William “Billy” Buckler, about the property, occupation, title or\nalleged fraud. References to alleged fraud identify a subject for the\nsearch; they are not a claim that a Council record or finding establishing\nfraud necessarily exists.\n\n*B. Planning records and annexes*\n\nPlease identify and disclose the Council-held planning records, plans,\nsupporting documents, annexes, correspondence and associated material\nrelating to application 89/01396/OUT and any related consideration of the\nredevelopment of the site.\n\nI have been unable to locate certain associated annexes in my copy. Please\nconfirm whether the Council holds them and, if not, whether its records\nidentify another custodian or archive.\n\n*C. Green, verge, trees and woodland*\n\nPlease disclose records held by the Council concerning the history, status,\nboundaries, maintenance, planting, ownership representations or public use\nof the green, the roadside verge beside the churchyard wall, and the\nwoodland associated with the former farm.\n\nThis includes relevant correspondence, complaints, maps, plans, site-visit\nrecords, referrals and communications with landowners, residents,\ncharities, the Vale of Glamorgan Council or other responsible bodies.\n\nI have also received information raising a concern that some gardens at\nChurch View Close may extend beyond their recorded boundaries into\nadjoining woodland. I identify this as an unverified concern requiring\ndocumentary clarification, not as an established finding of encroachment or\nwrongdoing. Please disclose any Council-held records relating to the\nboundaries, complaints or enquiries about this area.\n\nI recognise that the official VG41 registration file is understood to be\nheld by the Vale of Glamorgan Council. I am requesting records held by\nLlandough Community Council, including any copies, correspondence,\nrepresentations or referrals concerning the green or its registration—not\nsuggesting that this Council is the custodian of another authority’s file.\n\nPlease search relevant paper and electronic records, including\ncorrespondence and records held in archived or transferred collections that\nremain accessible to the Council. If any part of this request is considered\ntoo broad, please identify the specific part and explain what narrower\nsearch is practicable. If records are not held, please say so and identify\nany known transfer or deposit location where possible.\n4. Subject access request — my personal data\n\nSeparately, I make a subject access request under Article 15 of the UK GDPR\nand the Data Protection Act 2018 for personal data about me, Sion Buckler,\nheld by the Council.\n\nThe request covers personal data concerning my childhood association with\nGreat House Farm, the events surrounding the removal of my family from the\nfarmhouse and its demolition in 1988, and subsequent Council records\nreferring to me or recording information about me in connection with these\nevents.\n\nPlease search relevant Council-held correspondence, minutes, reports,\nnotes, referrals, photographs and other records, whether paper or\nelectronic. This request concerns my personal data; it is not a request for\nunrestricted disclosure of every record concerning my late father or the\nproperty.\n\nPlease acknowledge this as a subject access request and deal with it under\nthe applicable data-protection procedure. If you require proportionate\nidentification information to verify my identity, please specify what is\nrequired.\n5. Matters said to be for the “October meeting”\n\nYour email of 11 October states that other matters raised in my\ncorrespondence “will be considered at the October meeting of the council”\nand that you will provide the Council’s views afterwards.\n\nPlease confirm whether that meeting has already taken place.\n\nIf it has, please provide the exact date, the relevant agenda and papers,\nthe minute or other formal record of consideration, and any decision or\naction arising in relation to the matters I raised.\n\nIf it has not yet taken place, please provide the confirmed date, time,\nvenue and public-access arrangements, together with the draft or published\nagenda showing which of my matters are scheduled for consideration.\n\nThose matters include:\n\n   - The Council’s historic knowledge of Great House Farm, its surroundings\n   and the green, and any representations or records it holds concerning these\n   matters.\n   - The available documentary and photographic record relating to the site\n   and its redevelopment.\n   - The concerns raised about the adjoining woodland and garden\n   boundaries, insofar as they fall within the Council’s records or remit.\n   - The availability of the relevant planning annexes and the location of\n   any missing records.\n   - Whether the Council would consider a suitable historical\n   interpretation or memorial for the former farmhouse and its significance to\n   the local community.\n\nI also repeat my request that the Council pass my contact details to any\nformer councillor, clerk or local resident who is willing to contact me\nabout relevant historical knowledge. I am not asking the Council to\ndisclose those individuals’ personal contact details without their consent.\n\nI remain willing to give a short presentation on the documentary record at\nno charge if the Council considers that useful. Please record the offer and\nadvise whether it will be considered.\n\nIf the meeting is open to the public, please also advise how a member of\nthe public may make representations on relevant business, having regard to\nsection 48 of the Local Government and Elections (Wales) Act 2021 and the\nCouncil’s meeting arrangements.\n\nIf the Council does not provide these particulars or identify the relevant\npublished notice, please explain the basis on which I am expected to verify\nthat the promised consideration has occurred or will occur. I will retain\nthe omission and any subsequent response as part of the record of the\nCouncil’s handling of these matters.\n6. Clerk’s appointment and responsibility for records\n\nFor completeness, I ask for clarification of the present clerking and\nrecords arrangements because they bear directly on the identification,\ncustody and review of the records requested.\n\nI have seen public references to your retirement from a separate role with\nOne Voice Wales in 2026, earlier references in 2021 to possible retirement\nfrom Llandough Community Council, and subsequent discussion about whether\nthe Council had a clerk. I do not treat those references or social-media\ncomments as verified facts, and I draw no adverse inference from them. I\nraise the matter openly because responsibility for the Council’s records\nand for reviewing the refusal should be clear.\n\nPlease confirm:\n\n   - Whether you currently hold the appointment of Clerk to Llandough\n   Community Council and act as its Proper Officer.\n   - Whether any change of appointment, acting arrangement or transfer of\n   responsibility has affected the custody or management of the relevant\n   records.\n   - Who is currently responsible for the Council’s records and who will\n   conduct the internal review.\n\n7. Charges and response\n\nI have not authorised any discretionary paid search. Please do not treat\nthis email as agreement to incur a charge. If you consider that any part of\nthe request may lawfully attract a fee, please identify the legal basis,\nthe precise work proposed and the amount in writing before proceeding on\nthat basis.\n\nPlease acknowledge each procedural element of this email, distinguish the\ninternal review from the further information request and subject access\nrequest, and identify any part you consider cannot be processed as\nsubmitted, together with the reason and the available remedy.\n\nI expect the Council’s response to address the recorded evidence and the\napplicable obligations directly. I am not asking the Council to endorse my\nconclusions merely because I advance them; I am asking it to disclose and\naccount for the records within its custody and to distinguish what the\nrecords establish from what remains uncertain.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Sun, Oct 11, 2026 06:42 AM, Paul Egan <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler,\n>\n> Thank you for your email of  21 September 2026 making a request for\n> information.\n>\n> We are treating your correspondence as a request for information under the\n> Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the act).\n>\n> Under the provisions of the act and as defined by \"The Freedom of\n> Information and Data Protection (Appropriate Limit and Fees) Regulations\n> 2004\" (the regulations) , an authority is not obliged to comply with a\n> request for information if the authority estimates that the cost of\n> complying with the request would exceed the \"appropriate limit\".

I am\n> asking whether the Council would be willing to pass my details to any\n> former member, former clerk or long-standing resident who might remember\n> the village between the 1950s and the 1990s, leaving it entirely to them\n> whether to contact me.

Whether the Council would be willing to table this correspondence at a\n> meeting and minute it. I am content for it to be tabled in full.\n>\n> C. Whether the Council would consider, in due course, whether an\n> interpretation board or a plaque near the green would be appropriate.

We would need the income tax parish and the assessment number, which we would expect to be found via the map linked above (IR 131/4/96). We have checked the Genealogist website which has digitised some of these records, but its coverage appears not to include Glamorgan.\n\nWe have made a guess that the income tax parish is Penarth, but we would still need the assessment number of the individual farm in order to identify the right field book: https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/results/r/1?_q=penarth&_cr=IR%2058&_dss=range&_ro=any&_srt=1)\n\nYour options for accessing information from IR 131/4/96 is to either travel to Kew to review it and ascertain the field book number yourself, or to request a paid search by TNA staff, or hire an independent researcher.\n\nDetails on the options available for paid research can be found via the following pages:\n\nhttps://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/help-with-your-research/paying-for-research/\n\nA public authority is allowed to charge fees for access to information under section 9 of the FOI Act.

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).\n2. The accession, box, shelf, or other store location used by your staff.\n3. The Discovery catalogue identifier.\n4. 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.\n5. Whether the item is open, closed, or retained by another department, and if closed the series and the FOI route for a closed record.\n6. The systems searched, and whether a physical file or plan was retrieved rather than a catalogue-only search.\n\nI am not asking you to interpret ownership or to comment on any legal proceedings.

I note three points from that letter.\n\n1. You do not hold a separate recorded document listing, item by item, which search results were excluded. Please state which systems were searched for that schedule (collections database, search-export, review log, email, paper file) and whether a physical file was retrieved, and by whom and on what date. A not-held answer is incomplete without that (FOIA s.16).\n\n2. MS 3360/3: the page already supplied records Great House as part of the 1924 Llandough Estate sale particulars, occupied by W.G. Thomas & Sons, about 202 acres, Parish of Llanfair, homestead in the Village of Llandough. Please confirm whether the catalogue or the page itself names which Llandough (Llandough-juxta-Penarth or Llandough-juxta-Cowbridge). If that is not on the page or in the catalogue entry, say so.\n\n3. Ref 13.2 is recorded as a waterwheel from Llandough Farm (opposite hospital). I treat that as the Penarth hospital site, not the farmhouse demolished on 6 December 1988, unless a further recorded field says otherwise.\n\nI am not asking for a new search or for a document you say you do not hold. I am asking for the systems searched and the physical-file check on the not-held point, and the parish identification if it is already on the page or catalogue entry.\n\nCofion,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a1309dc33154ec9","subject":"RE: ALLANOL/EXTERNAL - FOI 2026-024 / 032 / 036 – outstanding item 7: recorded basis for treating already-found records as “unrelated / not in scope”","name":"RE: ALLANOL/EXTERNAL - FOI 2026-024 / 032 / 036 – outstanding item 7: recorded basis for treating already-found records as “unrelated / not in scope”","date":"2026-10-12T14:56:43Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a1309dc33154ec9.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a1309dc33154ec9-allanol-external-foi-2026-024-032-036-outstanding-item-7-recorded-basis-for-treating-already-found-records-as-unrelated-","scopeTopics":["museum"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["museum"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a1309dc33154ec9","direction":"received","from":"FOI Requests","institutions":[{"id":"museum","name":"Amgueddfa Cymru - Museum Wales"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a1309dc33154ec9.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Mr Buckler\n\nThank you for your email.\n\nIn relation to your request for the recorded basis on which records were treated as outside the scope of FOI 2026-024, Amgueddfa Cymru does not hold a separate search log, file note, internal note or other recorded document setting out the rationale for that assessment.\n\nThe original response was based on searches which identified no records relating to the reported discovery described in your request, namely the alleged discovery of a soldier, horse remains and associated armour at Great House Farm, Llandough.

On 26 August I asked for those records and, specifically, the recorded basis for calling them unrelated (item 7).\n\nThat question remains unanswered. The later disclosures released certain Church Farm and other-site material but still did not supply the internal note, search-log entry or other record that justified the original classification.\n\nI therefore request:\n\n1. The recorded basis (search log, file note, email or other document) that led the Museum to treat the already-found Great House Farm / Church Farm records as unrelated or out of scope on 25 August 2026.\n2. If no such written basis exists, an explicit statement to that effect.\n3. Confirmation that the full set of records located in the August searches has now been disclosed or, if any remain withheld, the precise exemption relied upon for each.\n\nPlease treat this as a request for the information that should have been provided under the internal review of 2026-024.

The site is Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough-juxta-Penarth, adjoining St Dochdwy’s Church, Cardiff (approx.

Relevant record types, if held, include:\n1. incident or occurrence logs and control-room records; 2. deployment, duty or operational logs and any record identifying whether officers attended; 3. correspondence between police, the local authority, landowner/developer, court enforcement officers or other public bodies about the site; 4. any recorded liaison or request for police assistance connected with possession, eviction, demolition, public order or the handling of complaints; and 5. records-transfer, retention or disposal entries for the relevant operational record series, if the responsive records are no longer held.\n\nI am not asserting that a police deployment or a particular incident record necessarily exists. If no responsive record is located, please state that result and identify, so far as reasonably practicable, the record systems, index/series, date range and site/name variants searched.

I also hold the schedule of 43 documents on the first-registration files released on 30 July 2026.\n\nThe family’s established case, recorded on the public wiki and under investigation, is that the 1877 arrangement took effect in 1928, transferring the full Parcel A (house and buildings, barn, stable and west-side yard, garden, northern forest and the south-east ground later registered as VG41) to the Williams family. The 1939 agreement/plan depicts Parcel B only. On the family account, the 1949 attempt to make the occupation of Parcel A permissive failed, title papers were reported missing in 1950–52, and Western Ground Rents’ 4 July 1955 enforcement of Parcel B also seized the Parcel-A forest and green under “whole farm” wording. Later documentary work is directed at corroborating or precisely mapping that account and tracing those areas into later titles.\n\nFour specific points remain unanswered and are relevant to that investigation:\n\n1. The 1969 root deed recited as the root of title does not appear on the schedule. Please confirm whether HMLR holds that deed under any other reference, or whether it was never lodged.\n2. What evidence exists on the file of notice or opportunity to object given to the occupying family (Williams / Buckler) in 1982–83.\n3. The precise legal and administrative basis for the 1987 title amalgamation that took place while the Court of Appeal proceedings in BP Properties Ltd v Buckler were still live.\n4. Whether the inclusion of the woodland (or any land beyond the 1938\nconveyance) is regarded as a possible mistake capable of alteration or indemnity under the Land Registration Act 2002 and Practice Guide 39.\n\nPlease confirm these points form part of the live investigation and state the exact start date of the ICR six-month period (so that the\n~25 November 2026 outer limit can be verified).\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a12f404420e3087","subject":"RE: Mary Doreen Williams — death registration — request passed from Vale of Glamorgan Registration Service on 30 September 2026","name":"RE: Mary Doreen Williams — death registration — request passed from Vale of Glamorgan Registration Service on 30 September 2026","date":"2026-10-12T08:34:59Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a12f404420e3087.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a11a41ac938b1a5-mary-doreen-williams-death-registration-request-passed-from-vale-of-glamorgan-registration-service-on-30-september-2026","scopeTopics":["glamorgan"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["glamorgan"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a11a41ac938b1a5","direction":"received","from":"Denham, Karen (Registrars)","institutions":[{"id":"glamorgan","name":"Glamorgan Archives"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a12f404420e3087.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Sion\nThank you for your email regarding Mary Doreen Williams\n\n1 Cardiff Register Office does not hold the registration of death for Mary Doreen Williams\n2 The indexes that were search were FREEBMD where the reference number VOLUME 28 PAGE NO 3029 comes up.

There may also be other laws and regulations that have been broken.\n\nI would therefore be grateful if you would:\n\n- Outline full details of all firework-related incidents in the Llandough ward reported to your respective authorities within the past 24 months;\n\n- Confirm all actions that were taken following those incidents to address the problems reported;\n\n- Outline all actions proposed by your authorities to prevent inappropriate firework usage in the Llandough ward in future;\n\n- Confirm all measures available to your respective authorities to detain and apprehend the individuals responsible for inappropriate firework usage in the Community of Llandough as well as any restrictions that may be imposed to prohibit those individuals from entering the Community boundary;

The purpose of Task and Finish is to review existing policy Council considerations and identify areas for future policy direction at a strategic level impacting on a county wide basis. These topics are purposefully strategic in manner, and are based upon areas that Committees determine to have the most positive impact.\n\n2. In addition to the above, the purpose of Scrutiny is not to review evidence related to individual historical decisions and make subsequent recommendations, particularly related to planning, which should be navigated through other channels.\n\n3. We are aware through other correspondence to which you have copied us into that there are ongoing concerns being raised through a variety of channels including Welsh Government, CADW, MSs and MPs, and as such it would not be appropriate for a Scrutiny Task and Finish to add an additional layer of stakeholders and complexity in exploring the issues; notwithstanding points 1 and 2 raised.\n\nKind Regards,\nJames\n\n-----Original Message-----\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]>\nSent: 10 October 2026 20:15\nTo: Democratic <[email redacted]>\nCc: FOI Unit <[email redacted]>\nSubject: Scrutiny Topic Suggestion / Task and Finish request — Council-held planning, heritage and public-authority record for Great House Farm / Tÿ Mawr, Llandough\n\nDemocratic and Scrutiny Services\nVale of Glamorgan Council\n[email redacted]\n\ncc: [email redacted] (for information only — this is not a new FOI request)\n\nDear Democratic and Scrutiny Services,\n\nScrutiny Topic Suggestion / request for a focused Task and Finish Review\n\nI am a resident with a long-standing family connection to Great House Farm (Tÿ Mawr), Llandough-juxta-Penarth.

It is not a request for the Council to decide private title or liability.\n\nI am happy to complete the online Scrutiny Topic Suggestion Form if preferred, or to supply any further information the Democratic Services team requires.\n\nPlease acknowledge receipt and indicate the process and timescale for consideration.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a12a57b87f563cc","subject":"Re: Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough — request for information under FOIA 2000 / EIR 2004","name":"Re: Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough — request for information under FOIA 2000 / EIR 2004","date":"2026-10-11T09:42:29Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a12a57b87f563cc.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0c1e36871ebfd1-great-house-farm-t-mawr-llandough-request-for-information-under-foia-2000-eir-2004","scopeTopics":["llandough"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["llandough"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0c1e36871ebfd1","direction":"received","from":"Paul Egan","institutions":[{"id":"llandough","name":"Llandough Community Council"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a12a57b87f563cc.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Mr Buckler,\n\nThank you for your email of  21 September 2026 making a request for \ninformation.\n\nWe are treating your correspondence as a request for information under \nthe Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the act).\n\nUnder the provisions of the act and as defined by \"The Freedom of \nInformation and Data Protection (Appropriate Limit and Fees) Regulations \n2004\" (the regulations) , an authority is not obliged to comply with a \nrequest for information if the authority estimates that the cost of \ncomplying with the request would exceed the \"appropriate limit\".  This \nappropriate limit is set by the regulations at £450 for our type of \nauthority.\n\nIn the regulations our staff time is valued at £25 per hour.  This has \nthe effect of imposing a time limit of 18 hours of staff time for \nactivities specified in the regulations.\n\n  The regulations make the following activities by an authority countable \ntowards the cost limit.\n\n  \t* determining whether it holds the information,\n\n  \t* locating the information, or a document which may contain the \ninformation,\n\n  \t* retrieving the information, or a document which may contain the \ninformation, and\n\n  \t* extracting the information from a document containing it.\n\n  We have estimated the time and therefore costs as provided by the \nregulations, and in doing so have taken into account the above \nactivities.\n\n  We estimate that this work will take in excess of 18 hours of effort by \nour staff. As we have a significant amount of documents on file from the \nperiod 2002-2016 where minutes are in documents rather than published on \nthe website or in archives.\n\n  We estimate this will exceed the limit provided for by the regulations \nand therefore your request is refused on the grounds provided for under \nsection 12 of the act.\n\nOur estimate of time is based on the requirement to search all minutes \nof the council and its committees for a period of 14 years. It is \nestimated that it will take about 20 minutes to read each set of minutes \nof which there are estimated to 224 sets of minutes. It is considered \nthat this is likely to take about 10 minutes to assess each set of \nminutes a total of over 2240 minutes which equates to 37 hours.\n\n  We may may be able to provide some information if you are able to \nreduce or refine your request to bring the cost of compliance under the \nregulations limit.  We suggest that you could limit the time frame of \nminutes that we would need to look through. For example 2002-2006.\n\n  Please contact us if you would like to refine your request.\n\n  If you are not satisfied with this response or you wish to complain \nabout any aspect of the handling of your request, then you should \ncontact us in the first instance and we will undertake an internal \nreview.\n\n  If after the internal review you wish to complain further then you can \ncomplain to the Information Commissioners Office http://www.ico.gov.uk \n[1] and request a decision notice.\n\nThe other matters you include in your email will be considered at the \nOctober meeting of the council and I will let you have the views of the \ncouncil after the meeting.\n\n  Kind regards,\n---\nPaul R.

This is a research enquiry, not a request for a reading-room booking.\n\nThe property is Great House Farm / Ty Mawr, Llandough-juxta-Penarth (ST 168 733), adjoining St Dochdwy's churchyard. It is not Great House Farm, Llandough near Cowbridge.\n\nPlease would you check the full sequence D153/1-8, including endorsements, dockets and any attached plans, for any document dated c.1875-1880 relating to that property. The catalogue titles may not name the parties. I am looking for any agreement, lease, counterpart, award, conveyance or plan involving:\n\n- Daniel Thomas / D. Thomas & Son;\n- Llandough Limeworks;\n- John Williams or Thomas Williams;\n- the Bute Estate or the Trustees of the Marquess of Bute;\n- quarrying, minerals, lime, sidings, compensation or reparation;\n- the dwelling adjoining the churchyard (I note your catalogue entry for D153/1-2, 1811).\n\nIf such an item exists, please give the exact reference, date, document type, parties as written, property description and acreage, whether a plan is attached, and whether a copy can be supplied and at what cost.\n\nIf nothing in D153/1-8 matches, please say so, and say which other Bute series (including D219) you would check next. I have not yet had a substantive reply to my enquiry of 27 September; I would be grateful for a date by which I can expect one.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\n------------------\n\n\n\n\nThis email is sent from LibAnswers in relationship to ticket #9869940.\n\nRead our privacy policy. <https://springshare.com/privacy.html>"},{"id":"gm-1a1273e1e7a70b6f","subject":"Automatic reply: Great House Farm, Llandough — HMLR ref N610CGV — follow-up on Ministry of Justice reply and casework log","name":"Automatic reply: Great House Farm, Llandough — HMLR ref N610CGV — follow-up on Ministry of Justice reply and casework log","date":"2026-10-10T19:15:40Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a1273e1e7a70b6f.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a1273e1e7a70b6f-automatic-reply-great-house-farm-llandough-hmlr-ref-n610cgv-follow-up-on-ministry-of-justice-reply-and-casework-log","scopeTopics":["mp"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["mp"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a1273e1e7a70b6f","direction":"received","from":"DOUGHTY, Stephen","institutions":[{"id":"mp","name":"Member of Parliament"}],"refs":["N610CGV"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a1273e1e7a70b6f.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Hello,\n\nThank you for your email.

ST 167 733). \n \nGlamorgan Archives (Louise Hunt, ref. 2026/4097, 24 September 2026) has confirmed that the following references are yours, not theirs, and has directed me to you: \n \n1. D153 — Deeds relating to premises in p. Llandough, co. Glam., comprising a dwelling house adjoining the churchyard, 1811 (D153/1–2), and land (D153 onwards, including items sometimes cited as D153/4–8). \n2. D219 — Llandough manorial leases and agreements. \n3. The main Bute Estate deposit, GB 0210 BUTE (deeds to 1937; Glamorgan / Cardiff rentals). \n \nI do not ask you to adjudicate title. I ask only whether the following instruments exist in your holdings, and for catalogue references, dates, parties, acreages, and whether a plan is attached. \n \nA. The 1877 division \nDoes the Bute deposit contain a conveyance, agreement, or other instrument of about 1876–1877 by which the Marquess of Bute (or trustees) conveyed or contracted to convey the farmhouse, buildings and about 10 acres adjoining the churchyard at Llandough to Daniel Thomas (or Thomas and another), while retaining about 9 acres of agricultural land to the east? \n \nB. The 1916 agricultural tenancy \nDoes the deposit contain a yearly agricultural tenancy, or counterpart, of 1916 from the Marquess of Bute to John Williams of Great House Farm, Llandough? \nIf yes: \n- does the parcels clause describe the whole farm, or only the land Bute still owned after 1877? \n- is there a plan? \n- what acreage is stated? \n \nC. Rentals 1877–1936 for this farm \nDo Glamorgan / Cardiff / Llandough rentals in GB 0210 BUTE distinguish, after c.1877, between: \n- a house/buildings holding (Thomas / later Williams), and \n- a residual Bute field holding later passed to Western Ground Rents in 1938? \n \nD. Anything that would show the two holdings were treated as one unit again before 1938. \n \nPurpose. HM Land Registry first-registered titles WA231076 (30 November 1982) and WA240304 (23 February 1983; later amalgamated). The 1982/83 files treat the land as one farm. The family case is that Parcel A (house and about 10 acres) had already left Bute in 1877 and was not the land let in 1916, so the 1982 merged title cannot be the same unit as the 1916 tenancy. Your deeds and rentals are the estate-side evidence that can confirm or deny that. \n \nI live in Patagonia and cannot visit Aberystwyth in person in the short term. I would be grateful for: \n- catalogue references and a short description of any matching items; \n- whether copies can be supplied, and the cost; \n- if the 1916 tenancy is not in GB 0210 BUTE, any note of where Bute tenancy counterparts after 1910 were deposited. \n \nThis is a new enquiry. It is not a repeat of FOI/2026/11. Glamorgan Archives hold the 1938–44 Western Ground Rents plan/rental book (D696) and have already answered on their own Bute material. \n \nSion (Hywel) Buckler \n [email redacted] [phone redacted] \n \nPublic chronology and parcel statement: \n https://greathousefarmwiki. wordpress.com/the-two-parcels/ \n https://greathousefarmwiki. wordpress.com/1916-tenancy/ \n https://greathousefarmwiki. wordpress.com/land-registry- titles/"},{"id":"gm-1a1273ce9fdd7187","subject":"Mary Doreen Williams — death registration — request passed from Vale of Glamorgan Registration Service on 30 September 2026","name":"Mary Doreen Williams — death registration — request passed from Vale of Glamorgan Registration Service on 30 September 2026","date":"2026-10-10T19:14:25Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a1273ce9fdd7187.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a11a41ac938b1a5-mary-doreen-williams-death-registration-request-passed-from-vale-of-glamorgan-registration-service-on-30-september-2026","scopeTopics":["glamorgan"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["glamorgan"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a11a41ac938b1a5","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"glamorgan","name":"Glamorgan Archives"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a1273ce9fdd7187.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Ms Denham,\n\nMary Doreen Williams: death registration\n\nOn 30 September 2026 the Vale of Glamorgan Registration Service told me they could not find a death record for Mary Doreen Williams in the Vale, and that they had passed my request to Cardiff.

It is not a joint request, and it does not ask any recipient to speak for, investigate on behalf of, or answer in place of any other person or organisation. Each recipient is asked to respond only in respect of records within that recipient's own possession, custody or control, including records inherited from a predecessor organisation or retained on its behalf.\n\n1. Nature and purpose of this notice\n\nThis is a formal preservation notice concerning documentary material relating to Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough-juxta-Penarth, adjoining St Dochdwy's, and the subsequent development of the site, including the area now associated with Church View Close.\n\nIt is not a claim form, is not service of proceedings, and is not intended to constitute or replace any FOI request, internal review, complaint, subject-access request or other statutory process already made to any recipient.\n\nThe purpose of this notice is to require the preservation of potentially relevant material while the documentary history, title chain, registration history, planning history, possession proceedings, demolition and subsequent development are being reconstructed.\n\nA separate first-stage preservation notice has been issued or is being issued to Cadw / Welsh Government FOI, HM Land Registry Wales Office and DPO, Heneb / GGAT HER, RCAHMW, Vale of Glamorgan FOI Unit and DPO, Glamorgan Archives, South Wales Police FOI, The National Archives, the Wales Office FOI team, and the National Library of Wales. Persimmon Homes (Wales) Ltd has received a separate preservation letter.\n\nYou are receiving this notice separately because the published documentary record places you, or a predecessor whose records may remain in your custody or control, within the documentary, legal, professional, administrative or development chain concerning this land.\n\n2. Land and documentary scope\n\nPlease preserve, and do not destroy, alter, overwrite, discard, transfer out of custody without a recorded handover, or otherwise dispose of, any record within your possession, custody or control relating to the land or matters identified below.\n\nThe scope includes, without limitation, originals, copies, working papers, drafts, annotations, plans, photographs, negatives, films, tapes, maps, registers, indexes, correspondence, emails and attachments, electronic files, archived mailboxes, databases, metadata, internal notes, meeting records, instructions, client or matter files, survey material and other associated records.\n\nThe material requested includes:\n\n1. Historical ownership, occupation and conveyancing\n\nThe 1877 split; the 1916 and 1939 tenancies; the 1938 Bute to Western Ground Rents conveyance; the 1969 Western Ground Rents to BP Pension Trust conveyance; and any plans, schedules, abstracts, searches, correspondence or other documents relied upon in relation to those transactions.\n\n2. Possession proceedings and subsequent litigation\n\nThe 1955 High Court and 1962 Cardiff County Court possession orders; the 1974 proceedings; BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2; House of Lords leave papers, including YHL/PO/JO/10/11/2536; and Buckler v United Kingdom (1989), including associated correspondence, instructions, evidence, plans and working papers.\n\n3. Land registration\n\nThe first registration of WA231076, including the application dated 30 November 1982; the first registration of WA240304, including the application dated 23 February 1983; subsequent amalgamation, transfer or closure; and every plan, conveyance, abstract, search, application, correspondence trail or professional file relied upon in connection with those registrations or changes.\n\n4. 1988 possession and demolition\n\nThe taking of possession on or about 29 November 1988 and the demolition commenced on or about 6 December 1988, including any planning, listed-building, heritage, police, enforcement, media, contractor, survey, photographic or inter-agency liaison material.\n\n5. Planning and subsequent development, 1989–1996\n\nPlanning application 89/01396/OUT; reserved matters application 92/00671/RES; conditions 16–18; GGAT / Cotswold Archaeology material; records concerning any section 52, section 106, planning obligation, local land charge or equivalent instrument; and the transfer from BP to Ideal Homes dated 3 December 1993, together with all associated plans, correspondence, approvals, agreements, searches and completion material.\n\n6. Family records\n\nRecords concerning Mary Doreen Williams (died 1983) and William Buckler, insofar as those records relate to Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, the land described above, its occupation, ownership, possession, disposal, registration, development or demolition.\n\n3. Predecessor and inherited files\n\nWhere you hold, or may hold, a file originating with a predecessor, successor, merged practice, affiliated practice, client or other entity, that material is also within scope.\n\nThis includes, without limitation, records originating from:\n\nLoosemores of Cardiff; Robbins Olivey & Blake Lapthorn / Blake Morgan; Linklaters & Paines; Debenham Tewson / DTZ / Cushman & Wakefield; Wyn Thomas + Partners; Ideal Homes Wales; BP Properties; BP Pension Trust; Cotswold Archaeological Trust; Cardiff Bay Development Corporation; and South Glamorgan County Council.\n\nThe reference to a predecessor file does not assert that you necessarily hold such a file. It identifies material for which a reasonable custody or succession inquiry should be made where applicable.\n\n4. Preservation steps\n\nPlease take reasonable steps to prevent the routine destruction, deletion, alteration or overwriting of potentially relevant material, including material held in archived mailboxes, legacy systems, off-site storage, document-management systems, backup repositories and other electronic or physical stores.\n\nWhere relevant material has been transferred to another repository, archive, successor organisation or third party, please preserve the information necessary to identify the transfer and its current location, including any accession, file, box, reference or custody details.\n\nNothing in this notice requires the creation of records that do not exist. The request concerns the preservation of records already held or controlled by you.\n\n5. Purpose and legal position\n\nThis notice is not a finding against any recipient, and I am not asking any recipient to determine title or adjudicate the underlying dispute.\n\nThe 1987 Court of Appeal judgment is relied upon here only for matters actually determined by that judgment, including the issues concerning possession, limitation and the October 1974 letters. This preservation notice does not treat that judgment as having determined the complete documentary root of title to the farmhouse parcel.\n\nThe underlying documentary history, including the relationship between the farmhouse parcel and the agricultural land subsequently dealt with through Western Ground Rents and BP, remains a matter requiring reconstruction from the primary records.\n\nAccordingly, preservation is requested precisely so that the documentary record can be established from the records themselves rather than through assumptions based on later registration, later occupation, later planning treatment or secondary descriptions.\n\n6. Acknowledgement and identification of records\n\nPlease acknowledge receipt of this notice and, in your own capacity, confirm:\n\n(a) the officer, partner, records manager or other person responsible for implementing the preservation hold;\n\n(b) what records within your possession, custody or control you have identified as falling within the scope above; and\n\n(c) where you identify no records within scope, what relevant systems, files, repositories or predecessor records you searched in reaching that conclusion.\n\nA substantive assessment of title is not requested from you. The immediate requirement is preservation and identification of the documentary material you hold.\n\nThe public documentary index and developing evidence record is available at:\n\nhttps://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/\n\nPlease monitor that site for subsequent identification of documents, references and specific schedules relevant to your organisation's records.\n\nWhere a reliable public email address is unavailable, a postal preservation notice will also be sent. For example, a postal notice will follow to Loosemores, Alliance House, 18–19 High Street, Cardiff [postcode redacted].\n\nNothing in this notice constitutes an abandonment, waiver or limitation of any claim, position or remedy concerning title, registration, concealment, limitation, reopening, rectification or alteration of the register, or any associated matter.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nSganiwyd y neges hon am bob feirws hysbys wrth iddi adael Llywodraeth Cymru.

I am not seeking to attribute the waterwheel to Great House Farm.\n\nI will therefore treat Ref 13.2 as a separate Llandough Farm record unless a primary Museum record expressly establishes otherwise.\n\nMS 3360/3 — Great House / Llandough Estate\n\nThe more significant clarification is the information you have now supplied from MS 3360/3.\n\nYou state that the page records that:\n\n  *   “Great House” formed part of the Llandough Estate sale particulars of 1924;\n  *   it was occupied by W.G. Thomas & Sons;\n  *   it comprised approximately 202 acres;\n  *   it was situated in the Parish of Llanfair; and\n  *   the homestead was situated in the Village of Llandough.\n\nThose particulars provide a much more specific identification than the earlier catalogue description.\n\nI am particularly interested in the combination of Llandough Estate + Parish of Llanfair + Village of Llandough + approximately 202 acres + W.G. Thomas & Sons.\n\nCould you therefore confirm one narrow point from the record already examined:\n\nDoes the MS 3360/3 page or plan itself contain any further recorded identifier which identifies which historical Llandough is meant — for example the specific place-name form, neighbouring farms, estate owner, parish/benefice wording, acreage breakdown, plan number, tenant information, road, church or other geographical feature?\n\nI am not asking the Museum to make a new identification or to provide an opinion. I am asking only whether such information is actually recorded in the page or plan you have already examined.\n\nThere is an important reason for keeping this distinction precise. There are two different farmsteads in the Llandough near Penarth/Cardiff locality relevant to the Museum's records:\n\n  1.  Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, beside St Dochdwy's Church; and\n  2.  Llandough Farm, separately described by the Museum as “opposite hospital”.\n\nThey must not be treated as alternative names for one farm.\n\nThere is also a separate question concerning the Museum's wording “Llandough Church Farm” in the 1858 provenance of accession 63.24. I now understand that this should not automatically be equated with either of the above merely because it contains the word Llandough. Unless the underlying historical evidence expressly identifies the 1858 “Church Farm”, I will continue to record that identity as unresolved.\n\nFiltered schedule\n\nI also accept your clarification that the Museum does not hold a separate recorded audit schedule showing, item by item, which search results staff excluded after reviewing the results.\n\nI therefore do not ask the Museum to create such a schedule.\n\nFor the purposes of the record, I will instead distinguish between:\n\n  *   records positively identified as Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr;\n  *   records positively identified as the separate Llandough Farm opposite the hospital;\n  *   records from other Llandoughs, including Llandough-juxta-Cowbridge;\n  *   and source-specific records whose location remains unresolved.\n\nThe new MS 3360/3 particulars are sufficiently distinctive to make the underlying page and plan an important identification source, so I would be grateful for confirmation of whether any further geographical identifier is actually recorded there.\n\nThank you again for the clarification.\n\nCofion,\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Wed, 7 Oct 2026, 08:11 FOI Requests, <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler\n\nThank you for your email.\n\nIn relation to the filtered schedule, Amgueddfa Cymru does not hold a separate recorded document identifying, item by item, which search results were excluded following review.

We do not hold a separate audit schedule of those decisions.\n\nIn relation to MS 3360/3, the relevant page was previously supplied in response to FOI 2026-032. That page records that \"Great House\" formed part of the Llandough Estate sale particulars of 1924, was occupied by W.G.

Your reply of 28 September accepted the distinction: the collections system does not group by similar names, no recorded cross-attribution is held, and those hits arose from the search rather than catalogue overlap.\n\nThe 5 October letter does not supply a cleaned / filtered schedule showing which of the FOI 2026-032 items survive that filter. Until that is provided, the cross-reference still carries the Cowbridge and Llandow material. That is the point left open on 28 September and still open now.\n\nWhat you have not said\nYou have not stated, item by item, which of the earlier schedule entries are now excluded as relating to Great House Farm near Cowbridge or Great House Farm, Llandow. You have not confirmed the parish of the page of MS 3360/3 that you identify as relating to Great House Farm (which Llandough, and any vendor / tenant / acreage / parcel detail that identifies the holding).

It will be treated in the utmost confidence.\n\n\n**\n------------------------------------------------------------\n\nNEXT WEEK:\nRedlands Road diversion\n\nRedlands Road will be closed between 9th and 11th October to vehicles travelling towards Dinas Powys towards Llandough.\n\nThis is because the right hand turn will be closed to allow gas works to be carried out safely.\n\nDetails of the diversion can be found above.\n\nAs you'll see, drivers are being told to travel past the Merrie Harrier and the Barons Court to the Cardiff Bay roundabout, where they will be able to turn around and travel back towards Penarth, before using the left hand turn to access Redlands Road.\n\nThe route for vehicles travelling in the opposite direction is unaffected.\n\nWhile this is unlikely to be particularly problematic for Llandough residents, I'm concerned some drivers may attempt to use the Dochdwy estate or the Merrie Harrier car park to turn around, potentially causing a bottleneck.\n\nI've therefore put together a short video, explaining the diversion route in place, which avoids our village.\n\nIt would be helpful if you would share it on social media, Hywel.\n\nTo do so, you can click below now.\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/r/1CJhqM9XTD/\n\nRoad markings:\nPen-y-turnpike Road\n\nThe road markings at the junction between Pen-y-turnpike Road and Leckwith Road have now been repainted.\n\nWe secured these works together, by pressuring the Council to get them done.\n\nIt may seem like a small thing, but making it clear to drivers they need to give way will help stop accidents.\n\nThank you to everyone across Llandough, Leckwith and Michaelston-le-Pit who helped.\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/r/1EaRtbbAVJ/\n\nPreventing overdevelopment\n\nWhen I'm out and about in our community, many residents express concerns about overdevelopment and the way it threatens our village's distinct identity and character.\n\nThe proposals to build 250 houses on Eastbrook Road are a good example.\n\nWhile outside our village, the site is located just down from the Merrie Harrier, on green fields that form a natural boundary between Llandough and Dinas Powys.\n\nThis boundary is crucial in ensuring both villages remain separate, unique entities.\n\nYou can watch my comments at the last Full Council meeting below.\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/r/1Fff7ZbyuK/\n\nDochdwy Road pavement defects\n\nHuge thanks to the resident who got in touch about pavement defects on Dochdwy Road.\n\nAs you'll see, these have now all been marked up for repair.\n\nBy getting in touch, the resident helped ensure the issue was taken forward quickly.\n\nWhen you contact me about things you spot, you're not causing a bother.\n\nTo the contrary, you're playing a crucial role in our team, as we work to improve things in our village.\n\nThat's what Our Plan for Llandough is all about!\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/r/1Hy7k64Xw5/\n\nCommunity drop-in event:\n20th October\n\nOur next community drop-in event takes place at the Merrie Harrier on 20th October.\n\nLike the last one, it'll start at 7.00pm.\n\nThe pub is a key asset to our community.\n\nTracey and the team do a lot for us - help return the favour by lending them your support.\n\nYou can see some of their midweek offers below!\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/r/1EM9z5wbMs/\n\nOur Plan for Llandough!\n\n\nAs your councillor, I'm working with you all to secure a better future for Llandough. Together, we have a plan to deliver for the village.\n\nOur plan is making Llandough better by:\n\n1. Sorting out the parking problems\n2. Stamping out dog fouling\n3. Repairing our roads\n4. Stopping littering and flytipping\n5. Delivering better sports facilities\n6. Keeping the whole community involved\n\nIf you have any suggestions of what you'd like to see in Our Plan, please get in touch!\n\nhttp://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fmailchi.mp%2F04504f486a28%2Fin-touch-with-llandough-17666248 Share (http://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fmailchi.mp%2F04504f486a28%2Fin-touch-with-llandough-17666248)\nhttps://us19.forward-to-friend.com/forward?u=7b7a08284cdbc1f69f5b0afd8&id=5279f843b3&e=1429c2c1bb Forward (https://us19.forward-to-friend.com/forward?u=7b7a08284cdbc1f69f5b0afd8&id=5279f843b3&e=1429c2c1bb)\n\n============================================================\nI'm hoping to reach as many people as possible with this newsletter, so please feel free to forward it to friends and neighbours.\n\nIf this email has been forwarded to you, and you would like to sign up to my newsletter, please click ** here ([email redacted]\n.\nThis email was sent to you because your email address is on my subscribers list.

It is not a new request and must not be used to restart any clock.\n\nOn 11 September 2026 you wrote that service areas had found further historical documentation, that you were still sifting it, and that because some of it is “not necessarily Council documentation but is nonetheless in the Council’s possession” you were considering whether to consult third parties. You said you would try to give a clearer timetable by the end of the following week (i.e. by 18 September 2026).\n\nOn 30 September 2026 I asked, by Tuesday 6 October 2026, for:\n1. A firm date by which the completed internal review decision will be issued;\n2. A non-disclosive description of the further documentation located (date range, creator/supplier, how it came into the Council’s possession, approximate volume);\n3. Confirmation that the newly located documentation is being preserved without alteration, destruction or disposal; and\n4. Immediate release of any material that can properly be disclosed without awaiting third-party consultation.\n\nNone of those four points has been answered.\n\nWhat you have not said\nYou have not identified a single document found in the September sift. You have not named any third-party consultee class, the date any consultation was sent, or the date by which a reply was required. You have not stated whether the material is held under EIR or FOIA. You have not addressed the child / personal-data point previously raised. You have not confirmed a preservation hold. Silence on each of these points is itself a recorded position.\n\nWhat is now required (unchanged from the unanswered requests)\n(a) Issue the internal review decision. On any view the ICO’s recommended maximum of 40 working days from the request for review (7 July 2026) has long passed. If you contend that EIR does not apply, say so expressly and identify the statutory basis for treating the request under FOIA alone.\n\n(b) Attach a schedule of every document found in the further search: date, description, format, holding service, whether Council or third-party record in the Council’s possession, and the decision on each (disclose / part-disclose / withhold with the precise regulation or section).\n\n(c) If any third-party consultation has occurred or is proposed, name the class of consultee, the date the consultation was sent, and the deadline set for reply. A consultee’s silence is not a ground to withhold.\n\n(d) Confirm in writing that every document in the sift, and every related planning, enforcement, legal, committee, land, finance and correspondence record (including predecessor-authority material), is under a formal preservation hold and will not be destroyed, weeded, transferred or disposed of while 00210772 and related requests remain open.\n\n(e) Address the child / personal-data point: if any record has been withheld or is being considered for withholding because it mentions a child, identify the record and the exemption. If no such withholding exists, say so expressly. Treat the personal-data element also as a subject-access request under UK GDPR for Sion Hywel Buckler (child occupant in 1988).\n\nThe 7 July 2026 answer treated the matter as a planning-register query. That was too narrow. The sift must cover the full list previously set out (planning files including unpublished appendices, enforcement, building control, environmental health, demolition, legal-services files, member/officer correspondence, land/estates files, finance records, and predecessor-authority transfers to Glamorgan Archives).\n\nPublic-accountability questions (to be answered from the documents, including those found in September)\n1. Was any Council or predecessor expenditure, fee, cost, grant or works associated with the occupation, demolition or redevelopment?\n2. Was any Council or predecessor land, right, permission or undertaking involved?\n3. Were officers or members told of anything that contradicted or qualified the ownership, occupation, heritage or demolition account then being used?\n4. What accounting, audit, legal, planning, committee and correspondence records survive?\n5. Was any irregularity, conflict, material error or control failure identified, reported, or formally accounted for?\n6. If the Council’s position is that there is nothing to examine, state that expressly and identify the documents relied on.\n\nBy return\nWithin 5 working days: the document schedule, the preservation confirmation, and either the child-exemption notice or a clear statement that none exists.\nWithin 10 working days: the internal review decision with copies of everything you are able to disclose.\n\nThis email records that the four points put to you on 30 September 2026 remain unanswered as of 6 October 2026. If no substantive response is received, the continuing failure to complete the internal review will be referred to the Information Commissioner without further notice.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a1149f5fe45fa0d","subject":"N610CGV — WA231076 / WA240304 — 1924–1930 instruments and any closed parent title","name":"N610CGV — WA231076 / WA240304 — 1924–1930 instruments and any closed parent title","date":"2026-10-07T04:29:11Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a1149f5fe45fa0d.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a1149d11bef0045-n610cgv-wa231076-wa240304-1924-1930-instruments-and-any-closed-parent-title","scopeTopics":["hmlr"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["hmlr"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a1149d11bef0045","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"hmlr","name":"HM Land Registry"}],"refs":["N610CGV"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a1149f5fe45fa0d.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Mr Haste / Customer Support\n\nReference: N610CGV\nYour letter: 30 July 2026\nAlso: 260918-6720625; 260919-6726246; 260929-6766714\nTitles: WA231076 and WA240304 (closed)\nProperty: land on the north side of Leckwith Road, Llandough (Great House Farm / Tÿ Mawr)\n\nThis is not a complaint, not a request to reopen the stage 2 review of 25 May 2026, and not a request that you determine ownership.\n\nI am asking you to search the historic files you have already retrieved and to say whether a 1924–1930 instrument for the house plot is on them.\n\nFamily evidence states that John Williams registered the house and garden parcel in 1928, and that an agreement of 15 May 1924 is on the WA231076 file.

In particular, please note that our searches have been extensive, including searches of any possibly relevant registered files, the only administrative and operational records and materials held in the long term, and the NMRW archive, including both term-based and spatial searches in the archive catalogue, and a manual search for any additional, uncatalogued material. This will be more fully addressed in point 1 as I take your questions in order, below.\n\n1) Our searches have been extensive. This has included searches of any possibly relevant registered files, the only administrative records and materials held in the long term. As I have noted, we do not appear to hold any records or correspondence in these records relating to your enquiries, or to Great House Farm more generally, including the circumstances of its demolition. Our searches have also included full searches of the NMRW archive, including both term-based and spatial searches in the archive catalogue, and a manual search for any additional, uncatalogued material. The term-based searches have included all relevant site names and related terms, as you have enumerated them. These searches have therefore included searches for all of the types of records which you have enumerated, with the exception of our historic aerial photography collections, which searches would incur a charge (see point 6, below).\n\n2) As has been noted in my previous correspondence, no record of this correspondence or allusion to the same is extant in our records, with the exception of the brief note in Archive 6048945. For the scope of our comprehensive searches undertaken to determine this, see point 1, above.\n\n3) Regarding Archive Number 6048945, as I noted in my email of 29 September, if you would like to order a scan of this record, please complete the attached order form. The record comprises one page, front and back, and would therefore require two scans. Please note that we waive fees for small orders of fewer than 5 research-quality scans for personal, non-commercial research. The record is part of our NMR Site Files Collection, for details of which, please see the collection-level entry in our archive catalogue, here: https://coflein.gov.uk/en/archives/6202405. As I further noted in my email of 29 September, there is no surviving record giving the date or purpose of that visit beyond the description currently catalogued, nor any associated site note, field sheet, photograph, sketch or correspondence.\n\n4) Searches of our internal records relating to these accessions numbers have revealed no further information beyond that which is available in the publicly accessible archive catalogue and noted in my email of 29th September.\n\n5) These records have been thoroughly, physically reviewed and it has been determined that they relate to the sites stated in the Archive Catalogue. They do not relate or allude to Great House Farm, Llandough in any way.\n\n6) With regard to aerial photography, as noted in my email of 29 September, a search of our aerial photography collections, including to determine whether there is aerial photography coverage of the site, would incur a charge (see attached price list). As was further noted in my email of 29 September, if any aerial photographs covering the area of the site do exist, these would likely be vertical aerial photography, taken from a high altitude during routine recording of the landscape and would be unlikely to show the site in any detail. There is no further photographic record of the site in our collection.\n\n7) As noted in previous correspondence, the 1974 ‘investigator's notes for Great House Farm, Llandough, including sketch plan showing periods of construction’ by H. J. Thomas is Archive Number 6048943 (https://coflein.gov.uk/en/archives/6048943). The ‘ink drawing showing plan of Great House Farm, Llandough, showing periods of construction. Scale 1:100. Additions made 12/12/1988’ is Archive Number 6048941 (https://coflein.gov.uk/en/archives/6048941). A scan of the item Archive Number 6048943 can be ordered using the attached order form, while, as noted in my emails of 28 May and 29 September, a copy of Archive Number 6048941 is included in the report available here: https://www.walesher1974.org/her/app/php/herumd.php?group=GGAT&level=3&docid=301361628. As I have noted throughout our correspondence, we do not hold anything beyond the material already visible on Coflein.\n\n8) There is no record of this.\n\n9) We hold no such providence information.\n\n10) As noted in my email of 29 September and in point 3, above, we do not hold any information relating to the circumstances of the December 1988 visit outside of Archive Number 6048945.\n\n11) See point 1, above. Physical searches were undertaken of all relevant Registered Files and key collections, such as the Site Files, which may have contained uncatalogued material. In both cases nothing of any relevance was identified beyond the records enumerated in the online archive catalogue here: https://coflein.gov.uk/en/sites/20182/archives. Comprehensive searches were carried out on both Coflein and Historic Wales, as well as in our internal archive catalogue and details of these searches are noted in point 1, above. All identified archive material has been carefully examined and read by our enquiries staff. All relevant records and archive staff have been consulted. No potentially relevant material has been excluded for any reason.\n\n12) In accordance with the suggestion contained in your email of 20 September, my email of 29 September fully addressed, and was in reply to, all enquiries of 8, 15, 17, and 20 September, and I therefore consider all of these enquiries to have now received a full response. We have established that we hold no internal, administrative, or operational records related to your enquiries, nor any which relate to Great House Farm, and that the only records of any relevance which we hold are publicly accessible records in the National Monuments Record of Wales archives. No information is being withheld. All enquiries therefore relate to publicly available records and should be considered as ‘publicly accessible to the applicant by other means’, namely our public enquiries service: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2000/36/section/21.\n\nOur FOI policy can be seen here: https://rcahmw.gov.uk/about-us/corporate-information/policies/freedom-of-information-policy/.\n\nSincerely,\n\nAdam Coward\n\n\n\n\nNMR Enquiries\nYmholiadau Cyhoeddus I Public Enquiries\nFfordd Penglais | Penglais Road, Aberystwyth, [postcode redacted]\n[phone redacted]\n[email redacted] | [email redacted]\nwww.cbhc.gov.uk | www.rcahmw.gov.uk\nNoddir gan Lywodraeth Cymru | Sponsored by Welsh Government\nRydym yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn Gymraeg a Saesneg.

It is particularly helpful to have your confirmation that Archive 6048945 records Richard Suggett's visit to the site after its demolition in December 1988, and for identifying Archives 6048941, 6048942 and 6048944.\n\nI have considered your response alongside the Commission's catalogue entries and the other records now available. Before any of the outstanding September requests are treated as concluded, I need to clarify one distinction.\n\nYou state (as in your emails of 28 May, 10 June and 11 June) that there are no letters or records concerning Tŷ Mawr Farm, Llandough, in the Commission's registered files, which you describe as the only campaign records kept in the long term.\n\nI note that answer. My requests were not confined to registered campaign files. They concern recorded information held by the Commission relating to the site, including records which your own archive identifies as existing, lost, received or created in connection with it.\n\nI am happy for the points below to be answered in whatever order is most convenient, provided the FOIA/EIR status and original dates of the September requests are preserved. Where a point has already been answered in full, a short confirmation that nothing further is held will suffice; I do not wish the Commission to repeat itself.\n\n1. Scope of the search\n\nPlease confirm whether the search has extended beyond registered files to other relevant NMRW collections and systems, including (where applicable):\n\n- Inventory working papers, drafts, record cards and historic index cards;\n- field and survey notes;\n- measured drawings, sketches, plans and elevations;\n- maps and plan collections;\n- photographic collections, negatives and indexes;\n- vertical and oblique aerial photography and its indexes;\n- grey literature and unpublished reports;\n- special, personal or specialist collections;\n- background records;\n- historic administrative records;\n- digital and legacy catalogue systems;\n- accession and deposit records;\n- transfer, withdrawal, de-accession or disposal records; and\n- uncatalogued or separately catalogued material reasonably capable of containing information about the site.\n\nPlease also confirm whether the search used the principal known identifiers and variants, including:\n\nGreat House Farm; Great House; Tŷ Mawr; Ty Mawr Farm; Llandough; Llandochau; Llandough-juxta-Penarth; NPRN 20182; ST 1681 7331; ST16707335; GGAT02038s; Inventory site 425; NA/GL/88/49; NA/GL/89/208; RCS2/1/1777; RCS2/1/1776; 6048941; 6048942; 6048944; 6048945; C.N. Johns; CN Johns; and Mrs Buckler.\n\nIf any of the categories above were not searched, a simple statement to that effect is sufficient.\n\n2. The lost C.N. Johns / Mrs Buckler correspondence\n\nThe surviving Suggett record (Archive 6048945) identifies correspondence between C.N. Johns and Mrs Buckler as having been lost from the file since 1986/87.\n\nYour response establishes that the correspondence itself cannot now be located. Please therefore confirm whether the Commission has also searched for any residual records about that correspondence, including:\n\n- a file cover or wrapper;\n- enclosure or contents list;\n- accession or receipt entry;\n- issue, loan or handling record;\n- reader-request record;\n- catalogue or index card;\n- duplicate copy;\n- draft, extract or summary;\n- contemporary note concerning its absence;\n- later note concerning its loss;\n- correspondence concerning its loss;\n- transfer or return record; or\n- any other record identifying when or how the correspondence ceased to be with the file.\n\nIf none of those records exists, please say so expressly. The question is no longer simply whether the correspondence survives, but whether the surviving archive contains any documentary trace of its provenance and disappearance.\n\n3. Archive 6048945\n\nPlease provide the complete surviving contents of Archive 6048945 (every page, card, continuation sheet, annotation and enclosure).\n\nPlease also confirm whether 6048945 is a complete standalone record, part of a larger file or collection, an extract separated from a parent record, or linked in any catalogue, accession or administrative system to other records concerning Great House Farm/Tŷ Mawr.\n\nYou have confirmed that Suggett visited the site after demolition. Please also confirm whether there is any surviving record giving the date or purpose of that visit beyond the description currently catalogued, or any associated site note, field sheet, photograph, sketch or correspondence.\n\n4. NA/GL/88/49 and NA/GL/89/208\n\nThank you for explaining the relationship between those admission references and Archives 6048945 and 6048941.\n\nPlease confirm whether the Commission retains any admission register entry, receipt, accession sheet, contents list, file wrapper, box/listing record, catalogue amendment, transfer record or other metadata showing what was originally received under NA/GL/88/49 and NA/GL/89/208.\n\nIn particular, if 6048941 is the only surviving record received under NA/GL/89/208, please confirm whether that conclusion comes from an original admission record or simply from what is currently visible in the catalogue.\n\n5. RCS2/1/1777 and RCS2/1/1776\n\nI appreciate the clarification concerning Archive Numbers 6364275 and 6364276.\n\nThe separate question concerning RCS2/1/1777 remains open. Please confirm whether the contents of RCS2/1/1777 have actually been inspected (including location plan, photographs, captions and associated recording material) sufficiently to establish whether the site is Bonvilston or Llandough.\n\nIf it is Bonvilston, I will record that as resolved. If it is Llandough, please explain whether the catalogue has been or will be corrected or linked to NPRN 20182, and provide the contents and copies requested earlier.\n\nPlease also confirm whether RCS2/1/1776 has been checked for the same reason.\n\n6. Photographs and aerial photography\n\nI note your explanation that searching the aerial collection may involve a charge.\n\nBefore deciding whether to commission a paid search, please tell me what the Commission's existing indexes or catalogue systems establish about aerial coverage of the relevant location:\n\n- Is there any aerial coverage containing the site?\n- Is there any vertical or oblique coverage for the relevant period?\n- Is there any photograph taken during or after the demolition?\n- Are there catalogue entries for photographs which are no longer held?\n- Does the Commission have any image connected to NPRN 20182 which is not presently visible on Coflein?\n\nThis is relevant to Suggett's statement that there was apparently no photographic record of the site. I would like to distinguish “Suggett could identify no photographic record at the time” from “the Commission has searched its photographic collections and holds no photograph of the site”. A nil return following a defined search of the photographic and aerial indexes would itself be a useful result.\n\n7. The 1974 survey and the ownership dispute\n\nYour quotation of Archive 6048945 now establishes (as a matter of the Commission's own file) that the house remained partially recorded because of problems created by an ownership dispute. That point is therefore settled.\n\nPlease confirm whether the Commission holds anything beyond the material already visible on Coflein concerning:\n\n- H.J. Thomas's 26 April 1974 survey;\n- the 1974 site notes;\n- the 12 December 1988 additions to the plan;\n- measured drawings;\n- field notes;\n- correspondence concerning access; or\n- any decision about what could or could not be recorded because of the ownership dispute.\n\nI am not asking the Commission to adjudicate the ownership dispute. I am seeking only to establish what recording opportunities existed and what records were actually made. (For context, the Commission's post-demolition addition to the 1974 plan on 12 December 1988 is the only institutional building-recording event identified in the immediate aftermath of the demolition.)\n\n8. Transfers, retention and disposal\n\nPlease confirm whether any records concerning Great House Farm/Tŷ Mawr were ever transferred to another repository, received from another repository, returned to a depositor, withdrawn, de-accessioned, destroyed, or otherwise removed from the Commission's custody. Where such an event occurred, please provide the recorded date, description, authority/reference and destination where held.\n\nIn particular, please confirm whether relevant material was ever transferred to or received from Cadw/Welsh Office/Welsh Government, Glamorgan Archives, The National Archives, Amgueddfa Cymru, GGAT/Heneb or another institution. (I note that the public HER entry GGAT02038s now incorporates material derived from the Commission's 1988 records; any residual administrative link or transfer record relating to that would be useful.)\n\n9. The nineteenth-century deposit\n\nThank you for identifying Archives 6048942 and 6048944.\n\nI am not asking the Commission to endorse the historical account. I would like the provenance of the RCAHMW record established, so far as it can be:\n\n- what source was used to create Archive 6048942;\n- whether that source was contemporary, retrospective or copied from another publication;\n- whether RCAHMW ever examined the alleged objects itself;\n- whether any accession, transfer or correspondence record connected the account with Amgueddfa Cymru; and\n- whether the attribution that material was held by the National Museum of Wales appears elsewhere in the Commission's records.\n\nIf the Commission has no such provenance information, please say so. (For completeness, Amgueddfa Cymru has separately stated that it holds no record of such an acquisition; I raise the point only to establish the documentary trail within the Commission's own holdings.)\n\n10. The demolition sequence\n\nYour confirmation that Suggett visited after demolition makes the following question particularly important.\n\nPlease confirm whether the Commission holds any record of notification of the proposed demolition, notification during the demolition, a request for (or consideration of, or decision not to undertake) emergency recording, a site visit before, during or immediately after demolition, or contact with Cadw, GGAT, the relevant local authority, BP Properties or its agents, or Mrs Buckler or any other family member.\n\nI am aware that the Commission may not have been under a statutory duty to receive notice merely because the building was unlisted. I am not assuming otherwise. The question is simply whether any such recorded information exists. The Commission's own addition to the plan on 12 December 1988 is the only institutional recording event so far identified in the immediate post-demolition period; any residual notes or correspondence from that visit would therefore be of particular value.\n\n11. Search statement\n\nBecause the principal issue is now the distinction between “not in the registered files” and “not held anywhere by the Commission”, I would be grateful for a short factual search statement identifying:\n\n- which physical record series were searched;\n- which electronic/catalogue systems were searched;\n- the principal names, site identifiers or reference numbers used;\n- whether relevant archive staff or custodians were consulted; and\n- whether any potentially relevant material was excluded because it was uncatalogued, separately indexed, deposited or otherwise outside the registered-file series.\n\nA concise factual description is sufficient; I am not asking for an elaborate report.\n\n12. Statutory status\n\nFinally, I do not want the distinction between the Commission's public enquiry/research service and its statutory information-rights function to become blurred.\n\nMy requests of 8, 15, 17 and 20 September 2026 remain as made. I am content for the Commission to answer them together where that is administratively easier, but I am not withdrawing them or converting them into paid research enquiries.\n\nPlease therefore confirm:\n\n1. which request or requests your present email is intended to answer;\n2. whether each outstanding request remains open;\n3. whether your present email is intended to constitute a formal FOIA/EIR response;\n4. where you say information is not held, the scope of the search supporting that conclusion;\n5. where information is being withheld rather than not held, the relevant statutory basis; and\n6. the applicable internal-review procedure and the name/contact details of the officer responsible for information rights.\n\nI appreciate the distinction you have drawn between material the Commission currently holds and material which may once have existed. That distinction is precisely why I am trying to establish the documentary chain carefully rather than draw conclusions from gaps in the archive.\n\nI am deliberately approaching this as a records-reconstruction exercise. I am not asking the Commission to reach a conclusion about ownership, the legality of the demolition, or the conduct of any person or institution.\n\nMy aim is to establish what records were created, what survives, what entered or left the Commission's custody, what was transferred or disposed of, what cannot now be located, and what searches have actually been undertaken.\n\nThank you again for your assistance. I would be grateful if the outstanding September requests could remain open while these points of clarification are addressed.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a110a1e67c69f50","subject":"RE: Enquiry — does D153/1–8 contain a c.1875–1880 Llandough-juxta-Penarth instrument?","name":"RE: Enquiry — does D153/1–8 contain a c.1875–1880 Llandough-juxta-Penarth instrument?","date":"2026-10-06T09:53:24Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a110a1e67c69f50.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0ac815c712ae7c-enquiry-does-d153-1-8-contain-a-c-1875-1880-llandough-juxta-penarth-instrument","scopeTopics":["glamorgan"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["glamorgan"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0ac815c712ae7c","direction":"received","from":"Glamro / Swyddfa Cofnodion Morgannwg","institutions":[{"id":"glamorgan","name":"Glamorgan Archives"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a110a1e67c69f50.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Ref: 2026/4274\n\nDear Sion Buckler,\n\nThank you for your email received into our enquiries system 17th September.\n\nThe majority of your email relates to document reference D153/1–8.

In responding to the present request, further enquiries were undertaken with Archaeology, Industry and Social History Collections. These enquiries built upon the searches already undertaken for the earlier requests.\n\nCollections staff reviewed records identified through references to Great House Farm, Ty Mawr and Llandough Farm, Llandough (Vale of Glamorgan), together with records returned through associated place-name searches. Records relating to the wider Llandough area, to other locations sharing the name \"Llandough\", or to other properties bearing the name \"Great House Farm\" were reviewed but were not considered to relate to the location specified in your request.\n\nQuestion 1\nA schedule of every object, archive file, accession, loan, enquiry or correspondence record that Amgueddfa Cymru holds which is indexed, provenanced or otherwise recorded as from Great House Farm / Ty Mawr / Llandough Farm, Llandough (Penarth / Vale of Glamorgan).\nThe schedules provided in response to FOI 2026-032 contained the records previously identified as relating to the location specified in your request.\nThe additional enquiries undertaken for this request identified the following records:\nReference\nTitle\nDate\nDescription\nRef 13.2\nWaterwheel from Llandough Farm\nCollected 1 April 1979\nWaterwheel collected from Llandough Farm. Museum records state that the item was donated by Wales and West Housing Association in connection with development of the site. The item was never formally accessioned and has subsequently been deaccessioned.\nMS 3360/3\nParticulars, Conditions and Plans of the Sale of Nine Well-Known Farms in the Vale of Glamorgan forming part of the Llandough Estate\n1924\nPhotostat copy. Collections staff identified a page relating to Great House Farm within the document. Provided in FOI: 2026-032\nNo further records relating specifically to Great House Farm / Ty Mawr / Llandough Farm, Llandough were identified.\n\nQuestion 2\nThe same schedule for Church Farm, Llandough, but only insofar as records were retrieved during the searches undertaken for FOI 2026-024 and can be identified without a new full search.\nThe record identified is:\nReference\nTitle\nDescription\n63.24\nArchaeological accession\nDetails attached\nNo further records were identified from the material retrieved during the searches undertaken for FOI 2026-024.\n\nQuestion 3\nAny accession, register entry, day-book, donations book or correspondence in the collections of Amgueddfa Cymru or of its predecessor Cardiff Museum / Welsh Museum of Natural History / National Museum of Wales, dated 1875-1915, recording ironwork, armour, a visor, a lance, a helmet, \"armour from Llandough\", or a find from Great House / Llandough Farm.\nNo such records were identified.\n\nFor clarification, the accession registers maintained by Cardiff Museum form the earliest accession registers of the National Museum of Wales collection. Objects held by Cardiff Museum were not re-accessioned when responsibility for the collections transferred to the National Museum of Wales and the accession numbering sequence continued uninterrupted. Searches of the earliest accession registers therefore encompass the former Cardiff Museum accession records.\n\nAs part of the enquiries undertaken in response to this request and previous requests concerning the same location, accession records and associated collections documentation were reviewed for the objects and locations specified above. No accession record, register entry, day-book entry, donations book entry or correspondence dated between 1875 and 1915 relating to finds from Great House Farm, Ty Mawr or Llandough Farm was identified.\n\nQuestion 4\nAny object record for Llandough ironwork that is not labelled \"visor\" or \"lance\" but is or was associated with the farmhouse floor or rear wing / dairy.\nNo such records were identified.\n\nArchaeology Collections have confirmed that they hold no record of any additional ironwork from Llandough associated with the farmhouse floor, rear wing or dairy beyond material already considered in previous responses concerning this location.\n\n\n\n\nI hope this information is helpful.\n\nIf you are dissatisfied with the way your request has been handled, you may request an internal review. Requests for an internal review should be submitted within 40 working days of the date of this response.\n\nIf you remain dissatisfied following the outcome of the internal review, you have the right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) for a decision. The ICO can be contacted at www.ico.org.uk.\n\nCofion cynnes,\n\n[A picture containing text, tableware, plate, dishware  Description automatically generated]\nFOI Team\n[cid:image003.png@01DD54BD.2E027CD0]\n[email redacted]<[email redacted]>\namgueddfa.cymru<applewebdata://288FE56C-5BFC-474C-ADB3-A1017EF25E69/amgueddfa.cymru> | museum.wales<applewebdata://288FE56C-5BFC-474C-ADB3-A1017EF25E69/museum.wales>\n\nRhif elusen | Charity number 525774\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nSent: 08 September 2026 04:05\nTo: FOI Requests <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nSubject: ALLANOL/EXTERNAL - Great House Farm, Llandough, Cardiff\n\n\nThis email comes from outside the organisation.\n\nDo not click links or open attachments unless it is an email you expected to receive.\nFOI Team,\n\nThis is a new request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. It is not a repeat of FOI 2026-024 and it is not a comment on the internal review of that request.\n\nIn your letter of 25 August 2026 (FOI 2026-024) you stated:\n\n  \"For completeness, our searches identified records relating to other archaeological finds from Church Farm, Llandough and to other archaeological discoveries recorded at Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough. These records do not relate to, nor are they otherwise associated with, the discovery described in your request. We have therefore not considered them to fall within the scope of this request.\"\n\nI now request those records.\n\nPlease provide:\n\n1. A schedule of every object, archive file, accession, loan, enquiry or correspondence record that Amgueddfa Cymru holds which is indexed, provenanced or otherwise recorded as from Great House Farm / Ty Mawr / Llandough Farm, Llandough (Penarth / Vale of Glamorgan). For each entry: accession or archive number, object or file title, date of acquisition or creation, donor or excavator if recorded, and a one-line description.\n\n2. The same schedule for Church Farm, Llandough, but only so far as the records were retrieved in the 2026-024 search and can be identified without a new full trawl.\n\n3. Any accession, register entry, day-book, donations book or correspondence in the collections of Amgueddfa Cymru or of its predecessor Cardiff Museum / Welsh Museum of Natural History / National Museum of Wales, dated 1875-1915, recording ironwork, armour, a visor, a lance, a helmet, \"armour from Llandough\", or a find from Great House / Llandough Farm.\n\n   Published sources which state that such ironwork is in the National Museum, and which therefore make a search of predecessor registers reasonable, are:\n\n   * GGAT, Land at Great House Farm, Llandough: An Archaeological Assessment, August 1990 (planning file 89/01396/OUT and 92/00671/RES): \"it is likely that some medieval ironwork which is held by the National Museum of Wales was discovered under the rear wing c 1880 (RCAHMW 1988).\"\n\n   * Holbrook & Thomas, Medieval Archaeology 49 (2005), p. 70 n. 142: \"medieval ironwork was discovered under the rear wing of Great House Farm c. 1880. It is now in the collections of the National Museums & Galleries of Wales.\"\n\n   I note that the National Museum of Wales was not founded until 1907. If a find of c.1880 entered a public collection in Cardiff it would have done so through the earlier municipal museum. Please search those predecessor accession registers, not only the post-1907 NMW database.\n\n4. Any object record for Llandough ironwork that is not labelled \"visor\" or \"lance\" but is or was associated with the farmhouse floor or rear wing / dairy (the room identified on H. J. Thomas's 1974 RCAHMW plan).\n\nPlease treat this as a request for recorded information only.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler\n[email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n\n------------------------------------------------------------\nAttachments (3)\n- 63.24.1.pdf (application/pdf, 68 KB): https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/pdf/foi/2026-10-05_museum-wales_foi-2026-036_63-24-1-rowel-spur.pdf\n- 63.24.2.pdf (application/pdf, 64 KB): https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/pdf/foi/2026-10-05_museum-wales_foi-2026-036_63-24-2-spearhead.pdf\n- 63-24 letter.pdf (application/pdf, 78 KB): https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/pdf/foi/2026-10-05_museum-wales_foi-2026-036_63-24-letter-1931.pdf"},{"id":"gm-1a10ac1941cfaedc","subject":"Please update the status of your request - BP vs Buckler 1987","name":"Please update the status of your request - BP vs Buckler 1987","date":"2026-10-05T06:30:20Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a10ac1941cfaedc.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a10ac1941cfaedc-please-update-the-status-of-your-request-bp-vs-buckler-1987","scopeTopics":["nactso"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["nactso"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a10ac1941cfaedc","direction":"received","from":"(name not shown; whatdotheyknow.com)","institutions":[{"id":"nactso","name":"Counter Terrorism Policing (NaCTSO)"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a10ac1941cfaedc.json","textStatus":"available","text":"To let everyone know, follow this link and then select the appropriate box.\n\nhttps://www.whatdotheyknow.com/profile/sign_in?r=%2Frequest%2Fbp_vs_buckler_1987_1988%23describe_state_form_1\n\nYour request was called 'BP vs Buckler 1987'.

It will be treated in the utmost confidence.\n\n\n**\n------------------------------------------------------------\n\nNEXT WEEK:\nRedlands Road diversion\n\nRedlands Road will be closed between 9th and 11th October to vehicles travelling towards Dinas Powys towards Llandough.\n\nThis is because the right hand turn will be closed to allow gas works to be carried out safely.\n\nDetails of the diversion can be found above.\n\nAs you'll see, drivers are being told to travel past the Merrie Harrier and the Barons Court to the Cardiff Bay roundabout, where they will be able to turn around and travel back towards Penarth, before using the left hand turn to access Redlands Road.\n\nThe route for vehicles travelling in the opposite direction is unaffected.\n\nWhile this is unlikely to be particularly problematic for Llandough residents, I'm concerned some drivers may attempt to use the Dochdwy estate or the Merrie Harrier car park to turn around, potentially causing a bottleneck.\n\nI've therefore put together a short video, explaining the diversion route in place, which avoids our village.\n\nIt would be helpful if you would share it on social media, Hywel.\n\nTo do so, you can click below now.\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/r/1CJhqM9XTD/\n\nRoad markings:\nPen-y-turnpike Road\n\nThe road markings at the junction between Pen-y-turnpike Road and Leckwith Road have now been repainted.\n\nWe secured these works together, by pressuring the Council to get them done.\n\nIt may seem like a small thing, but making it clear to drivers they need to give way will help stop accidents.\n\nThank you to everyone across Llandough, Leckwith and Michaelston-le-Pit who helped.\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/r/1EaRtbbAVJ/\n\nPreventing overdevelopment\n\nWhen I'm out and about in our community, many residents express concerns about overdevelopment and the way it threatens our village's distinct identity and character.\n\nThe proposals to build 250 houses on Eastbrook Road are a good example.\n\nWhile outside our village, the site is located just down from the Merrie Harrier, on green fields that form a natural boundary between Llandough and Dinas Powys.\n\nThis boundary is crucial in ensuring both villages remain separate, unique entities.\n\nYou can watch my comments at the last Full Council meeting below.\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/r/1Fff7ZbyuK/\n\nDochdwy Road pavement defects\n\nHuge thanks to the resident who got in touch about pavement defects on Dochdwy Road.\n\nAs you'll see, these have now all been marked up for repair.\n\nBy getting in touch, the resident helped ensure the issue was taken forward quickly.\n\nWhen you contact me about things you spot, you're not causing a bother.\n\nTo the contrary, you're playing a crucial role in our team, as we work to improve things in our village.\n\nThat's what Our Plan for Llandough is all about!\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/r/1Hy7k64Xw5/\n\nCommunity drop-in event:\n20th October\n\nOur next community drop-in event takes place at the Merrie Harrier on 20th October.\n\nLike the last one, it'll start at 7.00pm.\n\nThe pub is a key asset to our community.\n\nTracey and the team do a lot for us - help return the favour by lending them your support.\n\nYou can see some of their midweek offers below!\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/r/1EM9z5wbMs/\n\nOur Plan for Llandough!\n\n\nAs your councillor, I'm working with you all to secure a better future for Llandough. Together, we have a plan to deliver for the village.\n\nOur plan is making Llandough better by:\n\n1. Sorting out the parking problems\n2. Stamping out dog fouling\n3. Repairing our roads\n4. Stopping littering and flytipping\n5. Delivering better sports facilities\n6.

Land north of Leckwith Road, Llandough (Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr).\n\nThis is not a request for an official copy of the register. It is a request for personal data in the working file in which I am identifiable, including customer-complaint files, the pack sent to Stephen Doughty MP, and any note of my correspondence on N610CGV.\n\nPlease also say whether the first-registration file contains personal data about Mary Doreen Williams (died 26 March 1983) or William Buckler, so far as you can disclose it to me as a family representative, and what identity you require before the month starts.\n\nThe matters to which that file goes, so you can search properly, are these. They are questions, not findings against Land Registry:\n\n1. First-registration applications: WA231076 on 30 November 1982 (form 1E); WA240304 on 23 February 1983 (form 1C); later amalgamation and closure of WA240304.\n2. A 31 December 1969 conveyance, Western Ground Rents to BP Pension Trust, identified as a root, and whether it is on the 30 July 2026 schedule of documents surviving on the file.\n3. Notice and opportunity to object in 1982–83, while Mary Williams remained in occupation of the farmhouse. Family evidence is that notification was not received until after her death on 26 March 1983.\nI am seeking the notice and service record.\n4. What the 1987 Court of Appeal decided (possession, limitation, October 1974 letters) and what it did not decide (documentary root of the farmhouse and garden parcel).\n\nThe public evidence index is https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/ .\n\nPlease preserve the first-registration file and the complaint file. Do not start the statutory month until you have said what identification you need.

I apologise for the delay in replying. Please take the request off hold on the following basis.\n\n1. The FOI request (CAS-347296) is limited to the six numbered questions in my email of 13 August: whether the searches were limited to the PRO and RW series and four place-name terms; whether the named companies, court proceedings and application references were searched; whether TNA holds any transfer, accession, retention, destruction or disposal information for records concerning the property, companies or litigation; the reason for any \"not held\" answer; whether HMC9/311 was checked; and whether there are central-government, court or departmental records on the litigation or entities that would not be found by a place-name search.\n\n2. My email of 20 August about the National Farm Survey and the Glamorgan War Agricultural Executive Committee (1936–1950) is not part of this FOI request. Please treat it as a records enquiry under the existing case CAS-344046-K1S1R2. My chase of that case on 20 August bounced from [email redacted]<[email redacted]>, so I would be grateful if you could pass it to the Records Enquiries team.\n\nI am not asking TNA to research the contents of uncatalogued records, only to tell me what recorded information it holds about the searches, the catalogue and the transfer or disposal of relevant records.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\nPlease don't print this e-mail unless you really need to. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- National Archives Disclaimer This email and any files transmitted with it are intended solely for the use of the individual(s) to whom they are addressed.

The FOI Act gives you the right to know whether we hold the information you want and to have it communicated to you, subject to any exemptions which may apply.\n\nI can confirm that The National Archives holds some information relevant to your request. We are pleased to be able to provide some of this information to you.\n\nOur response\n\nThe initial response from our records enquiries team looked for the four terms (“Great House Farm”, “Ty Mawr”, “Llandough” or “Cedfin”) within the PRO and RW series and did not find any relevant information. We have now tried those terms and the further twelve terms that you have specified in a wider catalogue search. We have provided the results of our search below.\n\nThe crux of your query is local land ownership dispute in Glamorgan and the demolition of some buildings by a private company; generally speaking, these are not matters dealt with by central government and we would not expect to see anything within our collections. As such, there would have been no records to transfer. The exception is the court case relating to BP properties, which generated some papers. Links to the catalogue pages for these records can be seen below.\n\nThere are likely to be records of the farm in the 1940s as part of the National Farm Survey series but these cannot all currently be searched online by farm.\n\nWe are unable to conduct this research on the archival collections on your behalf without charging fees to conduct research on your behalf (Paid Search). A public authority is allowed to charge fees under section 9 of the Freedom of Information Act and within this section of the Act it states: \"provision is made by or under any enactment as to the fee may be charged by the public authority for the disclosure of the information\" (S9(5) FOIA).\n\nThe Public Records Act (1958) enables a statutory instrument to be made setting out the fees which may be made in connection with the supply of information from The National Archives. The prices we charge are set out by our Fees Regulations<https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2025/1243/made>.\n\nIf you are interested in paying for research to be conducted on your behalf, then details of our Paid Search service and other options for paying for research are available here: Paying for research - The National Archives<https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/help-with-your-research/paying-for-research/>\n\nIf you would prefer to conduct this research yourself then you may find the following research guide to be of assistance: National Farm Survey of England and Wales 1941-1943 - The National Archives<https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/help-with-your-research/research-guides/national-farm-survey-england-wales-1941-1943/>\n\nThere are Agricultural Executive Committee minutes and papers for Glamorgan; but again, these cannot be searched online by name of farm and we are unable to conduct this research without charging a fee: Browse records of other archives | The National Archives<https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/browse/r/h/C42711>\n\nWe can provide the following advice regarding the search terms you have specified:\n\n\n  1.

You have the right to ask the Information Commissioner (ICO) to investigate any aspect of your complaint. However, please note that the ICO is likely to expect internal complaints procedures to have been exhausted before beginning his investigation.\n\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nFOI Assessor\nThe Freedom of Information Centre\nGovernment and Archives Leadership\nThe National Archives\n\n\n\n\n\nYour request\n\nOriginal email dated 13/08/2026:\n\nMy request was deliberately framed more broadly than a simple catalogue search for the words “Great House Farm”, “Ty Mawr”, “Llandough” or “Cedfin”. I specifically asked The National Archives to identify recorded information concerning the existence, transfer, retention, destruction, disposal or absence of records, including records that might not be catalogued under the property's later or local names.\n\nYour response confirms only that you searched the PRO and RW series using:\n\n“Great House Farm” OR “Ty Mawr” OR Llandough OR Cedfin\n\ncombined with “Glamorgan”, and that this produced no catalogue results.\n\nYou also correctly state that Discovery searches catalogue titles and descriptions rather than the contents of records. That qualification is important, because it means the search described cannot establish that relevant records did not exist, were never transferred, or were destroyed.\n\nIn particular, your response does not appear to address the other categories expressly identified in my request, including searches or recorded information relating to:\n\n\n   *   Western Ground Rents Ltd;\n   *   BP Pension Trust Ltd;\n   *   BP Properties Ltd;\n   *   Mountjoy Ltd;\n   *   the proceedings in BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2;\n   *   the 1982–1983 registration and associated government or administrative records;\n   *   the 1980–1988 public campaign and governmental correspondence;\n   *   the 1988 eviction and demolition;\n   *   Cadw or central-government communications concerning the property;\n   *   European Commission of Human Rights Application 14464/88;\n   *   records concerning transfer, destruction or disposal of potentially relevant material; and\n   *   HMC9/311 or related archival references.\n\nThese alternative lines of enquiry are intentional. The purpose is to establish whether relevant information can be identified through the government bodies, corporate entities, court proceedings, administrative processes and archival transfers associated with the property, rather than relying solely upon the modern name by which the property is known.\n\nI am conducting corresponding enquiries with other repositories and public bodies. This is specifically intended to triangulate the documentary history where records may have been catalogued under a different creator, department, legal proceeding, estate, corporate body or administrative function.\n\nI therefore ask that you do not treat the absence of a Discovery keyword hit as an answer to the substantive questions raised.\n\nPlease clarify:\n\n\n  1.  Whether the searches undertaken were limited to the PRO and RW catalogue series and the four property/location search terms identified in your email.\n\n\n  2.  Whether The National Archives searched for the named corporate bodies, court proceedings and application references identified in my request, rather than only searching the property names.\n\n\n  3.  Whether The National Archives holds any recorded transfer, accession, disposal, destruction or retention information indicating that records concerning the relevant property, estate, companies, litigation or government involvement were transferred elsewhere, destroyed, or otherwise disposed of.\n\n\n  4.  If such information is not held, whether this is because no such records are held, because no relevant records were ever transferred to TNA, or because TNA's catalogue/search systems contain no discoverable description of them.\n\n\n  5.  Whether HMC9/311 or related series have been checked, or whether that reference falls outside the search undertaken.\n\n\n  6.  Whether there are central-government, court, departmental or administrative records relating to the litigation and entities identified above which may contain references to the property without using “Great House Farm”, “Ty Mawr”, “Llandough” or “Cedfin” in the catalogue description.\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, I am not asking The National Archives to infer the contents of uncatalogued records or to undertake an unlimited research project. I am asking for confirmation of the recorded information held by TNA concerning the existence, provenance, transfer, retention, destruction or disposal of potentially relevant records, and for the searches undertaken to locate that information.\n\nThat distinction is particularly important because a catalogue search returning no result is not equivalent to a finding that no relevant historical, governmental or archival records existed.\n\nI would therefore be grateful if this could be reconsidered as a response to the scope of the original FOI enquiry rather than treated solely as a request for assistance with a Discovery keyword search.\n\nI am continuing parallel enquiries with the National Library of Wales, Glamorgan Archives, Cadw, RCAHMW, HM Land Registry and other relevant bodies. The purpose of these enquiries is to establish the documentary chain independently and to identify where records were created, transferred, retained or potentially destroyed.\n\nFollow-up email dated 20/08/2026\n\nIn addition, please expand the scope of the search to include any records held relating to the Glamorgan War Agricultural Executive Committee (“War Ag” / CWAEC) and Great House Farm / the relevant land at Llandough, covering approximately 1936–1950 (with particular focus on 1939–1945). This should include, where held:\n\n\n   *   Any orders, notices or decisions taking possession of, directing cultivation of, or otherwise requisitioning land forming part of Great House Farm (or the specific parcel now associated with Llandough Motor Sales / Llandough Trading Estate).\n   *   Any compensation claims, assessments, payments or settlements under the Compensation (Defence) Act 1939 or related wartime legislation, including the identity of the recipient(s).\n   *   Relevant minutes, correspondence or case files of the Glamorgan CWAEC concerning the farm or land in question.\n   *   Any related material in the MAF series that links the National Farm Survey entries with wartime agricultural possession or compensation.\n\nI hold original documents recording compensation payments in connection with this land and am seeking to identify the wartime status of the holding and the party recognised as entitled to compensation.\n\nClarification email dated 02/09/2026\n\nIn summary, I am seeking recorded information held by The National Archives concerning:\n\n\n   *   Existence, transfer, retention, destruction or disposal of records relating to Great House Farm / Ty Mawr (and earlier descriptions) and associated entities, litigation and administrative processes (as previously detailed).\n\n\n   *   National Farm Survey / MAFF records for the holding.\n\n\n   *   Any Glamorgan CWAEC / War Ag records, possession/requisition orders, cultivation directions, and compensation claims/payments under the Compensation (Defence) Act 1939 or related wartime legislation in respect of the land (or the parcel now associated with Llandough Motor Sales / Llandough Trading Estate), including identity of any compensation recipients.\n\nI am not asking for an open-ended research exercise. I am asking for confirmation of what recorded information (including transfer, accession, disposal or destruction records) is held, the series searched, and the results of those searches."},{"id":"gm-1a0f7435f1e7cf6d","subject":"New response to your FOI request - BP vs Buckler 1987","name":"New response to your FOI request - BP vs Buckler 1987","date":"2026-10-01T11:39:42Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0f7435f1e7cf6d.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0f7428edff878c-new-response-to-your-foi-request-bp-vs-buckler-1987","scopeTopics":["nactso"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["nactso"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence);

There's a glimmer of legitimacy and good governance in the\nhandling of this case. Possibly even as much as 2%, in my estimation so far.\n\nAs I may have already stated, I'm already resigned to the idea that my\nWelsh family in Wales has been practically ethnically cleansed, which this\nBP vs Buckler case alone attests to. Hence why I'm looking to rebuild and\nresume our home life at the Welsh settlement in Argentina, where they\ncelebrate instead of exterminate and replace us - as the Brit'ish are doing\nto us Britons in Britain.\n\nI'm the first of my family to speak out about this case because of the\nimperialist trauma already suffered. Everyone else in my family who has\nchallenged the narrative died at all-too-convenient moments — like my\ngrandmother Mary, during the appeal window of BP registering our land\nparcel in their names.\n\nI was also at our home during our dispossession in 1988, which, according\nto ITV News reports, may have involved SAS personnel under cover as BP\nbailiffs. One of whom threw my pregnant mother over the gate and into a\npuddle when she attempted to get medicine for my father in hospital during\nhis heart attack. She was also a young mother, 22 years old at the time.\nThis is why her arm is in a sling as ITV interviewed her, but they fail to\nreport her pregnancy or that there were three infant children in the house\nat the time the pickaxes came smashing through our home's east-wing roof\nand windows.\n\nSo, if I have erred in writing to you, let my emotions get the better of\nme, I anticipate your forgiveness — as Gandhi once said to Hitler. But I am\nraising all these concerns of fraud, concealment and government involvement\nfrom a place of deep trauma, having had no trauma counselling or post-event\nsupport during what happened to our family for decades in this dispute.\n\nI'm also left to investigate because police or CPS won't, as yet. Land\nRegistry won't accept that they made any mistake, not to me or in a reply\nto the MP. The MP took months to respond, but is now involved. The\ncouncillor for Llandough won't respond, and those responding to my\ncomplaint about that refuse to hold him to account for a non-response. His\ncouncil clerk took retirement the day he responded to my FOI, after\ninitially refusing to participate and trying to fob me off. The Vale of\nGlamorgan Council are also so suspicious from both ends that I can't tell\nwhere the scandal begins or ends with them.\n\nI would like to think the government, and synonymous BP, have evolved since\ntheir siege on our family and home for practically the whole of the last\ncentury. BP won't show me records after 1955, which is another huge scandal\nin itself.\n\nSomething is still very rotten in Denmark. Except not in Denmark, but South\nWales.\n\nI'm not surprised or horrified anymore. I just think that, until proven\notherwise, the Brit'ish State is now a rogue state and terrorist\norganisation which Britons should stop harbouring on our small pale island.\nIts networks/cells are occupying our stolen land with officer or\nPoW/hostage housing, having committed its terrorist act and ethnic\ncleansing to dispossess us.\n\nMy language on this may appear disproportionate and even absurd. But just\nstudy the case, the history and heritage, and you may see what I see.\n\nI was with the UN in Cyprus, when I was RAF Akrotiri guard commander. I\ntook my soldiers there for tours I would arrange. They had to return stolen\noccupied land to the indigenous Greeks.\n\nI understand synthetic land parcels can be created where there's a dog's\ndinner made of the previous administration of title and estate. I know this\nvery well from almost a decade, on and off, in the Dominican Republic over\nthe last decade, where my wife and daughter are.\n\nBut the missing title deed and confusion which led to BP's synthetic land\nparcel doesn't appear to be naturally occurring in BP v Buckler 1987. The\ncase cites \"the whole farm\", treating it as one, then afterwards, as my\nfather was mid-appeal, they clandestinely merge the parcels back together\nto create the \"whole farm\" alleged single land parcel, but with a synthetic\nversion of our Parcel A.\n\nAnd all while we were still alive, on our land since 1667, asserting\nownership, and a family and family home.\n\nWe got buried alive. With our legitimate land-parcel title. Albeit the\npaper stolen. And in lieu of a mimic synthetic parcel, born from an\narguably permissive-occupancy allegation, not permissive occupancy. And\nafter a long line of failed ploys to make our occupancy permissive.\n\nNotwithstanding that, even deprived of our paper title from 1950/52, we\nhadn't paid rent from when we got the freehold to our parcel in 1928,\nmeaning our occupancy will already have qualified for adverse possession by\n1940. The issue was that the two parcels were falsely treated as the same\nprior to them actually merging into one, and with a clandestine\nregistration of our parcel in BP's name in 1983.\n\nIf I'm mistaken — which I surely am about parts of this — I will\nwholeheartedly accept that. But there's no smoke without fire. There is\nsomething to this case that stinks. And much was known at the time, but\nconcealed. I understand the threshold for fraud is high, and I am still\ninvestigating and gathering evidence.\n\nBut my 22 years in Oath ended in 2024, employed under the Vale of Glamorgan\nCouncil, of all entities. I'm no longer a public servant. And I should not\nbe encountering resistance or obstacles like I am, nor should I be the only\none intrigued by this case.\n\nIf there's more your office can do on this case, would you just do it? — so\nthat the Brit'ish State at least resembles a legitimate regime instead of\nfulfilling its own definition of what a terrorist organisation is, with one\nof your networks/cells' camps illegitimately occupying our family's literal\nancestral birthland, and for several straight decades.\n\nIt appears to be pure theatre why the UK Regime's on our land in Wales,\nlike an actual trespassing circus trick and circus. This is a dog's dinner.\n\nAlso, I flew Colombia to Chile earlier this month and was reminded of the\nvastness of land on this planet, and Britain's 0.21% of the landmass of\nthis planet. And the intensity of the claws digging into our land is\nabsurd. The United Kingdom should revisit its position on this matter. I\nrequire that of you. I also wrote to the Royal Family.\n\nI'm also fairly sure the reason the unicorn on the Royal Family Coat of\nArms is now chained down, as of 2024, is my campaigning to the Home Office\nsince 2015. So I do hold some hope that the circus that is the UK regime\ndoes and can alter direction, albeit slowly.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sgt)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\nWilliams/Buckler Family — Great House Farm, Llandough\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOn Wed, 30 Sept 2026, 14:50 Disclosure Team, <[email redacted]>\nwrote:\n\n> OFFICIAL\n>\n> Good afternoon,\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your email.

My request was\nspecifically for recorded information relating to furniture, furnishings,\nfixtures, household effects and movable property connected with Great House\nFarm (Ty Mawr), Llandough.\n\nThe questions I sought answers to were therefore about the existence of\nrecords such as inventories, valuations, estate correspondence, fixture\nrecords, transfers, disposals, provenance information and references within\nrelevant archival collections.\n\nTo avoid any misunderstanding, could you please confirm specifically:\n\n1. Whether the Bute Estate series D153, D205 and D219 were searched only\nfor references to the property name (for example \"Ty Mawr\", \"Great House\nFarm\" or \"Llandough\"), or whether searches were also undertaken for related\nterms such as:\n\n\n- inventory;\n- valuation;\n- contents;\n- furniture;\n- furnishings;\n- fixtures;\n- household effects;\n- sale;\n- transfer;\n- disposal.\n\n\n2.\n\nWhether any archival collections other than the identified Bute Estate\nseries were considered relevant and searched.\n3.\n\nWhether the Library holds, or has confirmed it does not hold, any:\n\n\n- household inventories;\n- estate valuations;\n- tenant records;\n- correspondence regarding contents or fixtures;\n- records of removal, disposal or transfer of items;\n- photographs or descriptions of household contents connected with Ty\nMawr/Llandough.\n\n\n4. If no such records were identified, please confirm that this\nconclusion is based on searches undertaken across the relevant archival\ncollections, rather than solely on the absence of catalogue descriptions\ncontaining the property name.\n\nI appreciate that archival catalogues do not always describe individual\nitems or subjects in detail. However, the purpose of this clarification is\nto establish precisely what searches were undertaken and what records were\nconsidered, so that there is a clear and accurate record of the Library’s\nposition.\n\nI am grateful for the assistance provided so far and would appreciate a\nspecific response to each point above.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber & Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member ------------------\n\nOwain Roberts\n\nJul 30 2026, 02:41PM via System\n\nDear Sion Buckler\n\nThank you for your message of acknowledgement.\n\nKind regards and best wishes,\n\nDr Owain Rhys Roberts\n------------------\n\nSion Buckler\n\nJul 29 2026, 02:10PM via Email\nDear Dr Roberts,\nThank you for the detailed internal review outcome of FOI/2026/09 dated 29\nJuly 2026.\nI note the clarification of the searches undertaken (including Bute Estate\nseries D153, D205 and D219), the rationale for limiting terms to the\nproperty name, and the application of section 21 to the publicly accessible\ncatalogue and Reading Room material.\nThis closes the internal review from my side. I will proceed via the\nLibrary’s normal catalogue and Reading Room services for the identified\nestate records. ------------------\n\nOwain Roberts\n\nJul 29 2026, 11:21AM via System\n\nDear Sion Buckler,\n\nPlease find attached the outcome of the internal review that you requested on the 20 July 2026. I can confirm that the internal review considered the clarification that you provided on the 20 July 2026.\n\nRegards,\nDr Owain Rhys Roberts\n\nAttached Files\n\n-FOI2026-09-Internal_Review_Outcome.pdf <https://national-library-wales.libanswers.com/loaderTicket?fid=4534050&type=0&key=f13df66d89dd9bb9040b52659665094b>\n\n------------------\n\nSion Buckler\n\nJul 20 2026, 08:37PM via Email\nMs Daniel,\n\nFurther to my internal review request, I would like to provide a short\nclarification regarding the scope of my original FOI request.\n\nHaving reviewed my original request submitted on 3 July 2026, I wish to\nemphasise that the request was expressly for recorded information, not\nmerely for physical objects held within NLW collections.\n\nThe original request specifically sought:\ninventories, catalogues and asset registers;\nacquisition, disposal, loan and transfer records;\nprovenance files and ownership records;\nphotographs;\ncorrespondence concerning identification, recovery, ownership or location;\ninternal reports, legal advice and memoranda;\ncorrespondence involving the Buckler or Williams families;\ncorrespondence with Bute Estate, Cardiff Castle, museums and other public\nbodies.\n\nTherefore, my concern is not that NLW does not hold furniture as part of a\ncollection. I understand that point. My concern is whether relevant\ndocumentary records were searched across appropriate archival collections\nwhere references to such items may exist.\n\nFor example, where NLW holds Bute Estate material relating to Ty\nMawr/Llandough, I would appreciate confirmation as to whether those\ncollections were searched for incidental references to:\nhousehold inventories;\nfixtures;\nvaluations;\nestate correspondence;\ntransfers or disposals;\nprovenance information;\nreferences to occupants or contents of the farmhouse.\n\nThis clarification is provided to assist the internal review and ensure the\noriginal request is considered in its full context.\nI appreciate the catalogue references already provided and look forward to\nconfirmation of the searches undertaken. ------------------\n\nSion Buckler\n\nJul 20 2026, 08:35PM via Email\nMs Daniel,\n\nThank you for your response dated 20 July 2026 regarding FOI/2026/09 and\nfor identifying the catalogue references relating to Ty Mawr/Llandough\nwithin the Bute Estate collections.\n\nI would like to request an internal review, as I believe the response may\nhave interpreted the scope of my request too narrowly.\n\nMy request was for:\n\n\"All recorded information held concerning furniture, furnishings, antiques,\nfixtures, heirlooms and other movable property originating from Great House\nFarm (Ty Mawr), Llandough, including any and all items received from Bute\nEstate, Cardiff Castle, Cardiff Council.\"\n\nI appreciate that the National Library of Wales does not collect furniture\nas a category of object and therefore may not hold the physical items\nthemselves. However, my request was not limited to physical objects or\nacquisition files. It sought *all recorded information* relating to such\nitems.\n\nThis could include, for example:\n\n- inventories;\n- valuations;\n- estate correspondence;\n- fixture schedules;\n- probate references;\n- sale catalogues;\n- photographs;\n- tenancy records;\n- references within Bute Estate papers;\n- records of transfer, removal or disposal.\n\nThe response confirms that NLW holds significant Bute Estate material\nrelating to Ty Mawr, including maps, leases and deeds. However, it does not\nclarify whether those wider collections were searched for references to the\nfarmhouse contents, fixtures, or related estate administration records.\n\nCould the internal review please clarify:\n\n1.\n\nWhat collections and record series were searched in responding to this\nrequest?\n2.\n\nWere searches undertaken beyond acquisition files, including within Bute\nEstate papers and related archival collections?\n3.\n\nWere terms such as:\n\n\n- Great House Farm;\n- Ty Mawr;\n- Llandough;\n- fixtures;\n- inventory;\n- valuation;\n- contents;\n- furnishings;\n- sale;\n- transfer;\n\nused as part of the search?\n\n4. If no relevant records are held, could you please confirm the\nsearches undertaken and the basis for that conclusion?\n\nThe reason this distinction matters is that my wider research concerns the\ndocumentary history of the farmhouse and garden plot following changes\naffecting Ty Mawr/Llandough after the 19th century. Records relating to\nfixtures, valuations, inventories or estate administration may provide\nimportant historical context, regardless of whether the physical items\nthemselves remain.\n\nI am not asking NLW to determine ownership or provide a legal opinion. I am\nseeking confirmation that all relevant archival holdings have been\nconsidered and that the request has been searched against the appropriate\ncollections.\n\nThank you for your assistance. I look forward to the outcome of the\ninternal review. ------------------\n\nIwan ap Dafydd\n\nJul 20 2026, 05:10PM via System\n\nDear Sion Buckler,\n\nAttached is the response to your recent Freedom of Information request.\n\nRegards,\n\nIwan ap Dafydd\n\nAttached Files\n\n-FOI2026-09.pdf <https://national-library-wales.libanswers.com/loaderTicket?fid=4517166&type=0&key=5afe8f6fd61ea76cddc027c015f0bfb2>\n\n------------------\n\nIwan ap Dafydd\n\nJul 03 2026, 11:45AM via System\n\nDear Sion Buckler,\n\nI am writing in response to your recent application for information held by the Library\n \n(Ref FOI/2026/09) received here at the Library on 3 July, 2026\n \nYou will receive a reply within 20 working days, being 31 July, 2026\n\nBest wishes,\n\nIwan ap Dafydd\n\n------------------\n\nCwestiwn gwreiddiol\n\nJul 02 2026, 08:51PM via Email\nGreat House Farm, Llandough | Cardiff Castle Furniture\n\nFreedom of Information Act 2000 Request\n\nSir/Madam,\n\nI am making this request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.\n\nI seek all recorded information held concerning furniture, furnishings, antiques, fixtures, heirlooms and other movable property originating from Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough, including any and all items we received from Bute Estate, Cardiff Castle, Cardiff Council.  Weather it be museums, archives or any other public body. I know museums have artifacts from our land in Llandough. \n\nSpecifically, I request copies of all:\n-Inventories, catalogues and asset registers.\n-Acquisition, disposal, loan and transfer records.\n-Provenance files and ownership records.\n-Photographs of items identified as originating from Great House Farm.\n-Correspondence concerning the identification, recovery, ownership or location of such items.\n-Internal reports, legal advice and memoranda relating to Great House Farm furniture or household effects.\n-Correspondence mentioning the Buckler or Williams families in connection with these items.\n-Records concerning any efforts by Cardiff Council or Cardiff Castle to trace, recover or secure items believed to have originated from Great House Farm.\n-Correspondence with the Bute Estate, museums, the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, the Reviewing Committee on the Export of Works of Art and Objects of Cultural Interest (RCEWA), Arts Council England or any other public authority regarding objects from Great House Farm.\n\nFor context, I am allegeing that my family was unlawfully dispossessed of Great House Farm through fraud, and that furniture and other historic possessions belonging to the family were consequently dispersed. It's possible the bailiffs from BP were also SAS soldiers. We are still gathering actionable intelligence. \n\nI appreciate that the Freedom of Information Act does not require the authority to determine the merits of that allegation. However, it is directly relevant to understanding why I seek the recorded information.\n\nI am currently developing a full-scale replica of Great House Farm in Patagonia, Argentina as a museum dedicated to preserving the history of the house, its occupants and its contents. Should records identify surviving items from the farm, whether held by Cardiff Council, Cardiff Castle, museums or other public institutions, I intend to pursue their lawful return or transfer so they may ultimately be reunited with the reconstructed Great House Farm museum. This statement is provided solely as context for my request and does not seek a determination under the Freedom of Information Act.\n\nIf any information is withheld, please identify each exemption relied upon and explain why it applies, including the outcome of any public interest test where required.\n\nIf another public authority is more likely to hold the requested information, I would be grateful if you would transfer the request or advise me accordingly.\n\nI look forward to your response within the statutory time limit.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\n\n\n\n\n------------------\n\nThank you for using the National Library of Wales Enquiry Service.\n\n\n\nThis email is sent from LibAnswers in relationship to ticket #9603180.\n\nRead our privacy policy. <https://springshare.com/privacy.html>"},{"id":"gm-1a0f2f0f54a36630","subject":"RE: Ty Mawr, Llandough, Cardiff","name":"RE: Ty Mawr, Llandough, Cardiff","date":"2026-09-30T15:31:07Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0f2f0f54a36630.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a02ad4c2f0fd6e3-ty-mawr-llandough-cardiff","scopeTopics":["glamorgan"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["glamorgan"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a02ad4c2f0fd6e3","direction":"received","from":"Glamro / Swyddfa Cofnodion Morgannwg","institutions":[{"id":"glamorgan","name":"Glamorgan Archives"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0f2f0f54a36630.json","attachments":[{"name":"Bute 10.doc","title":"Bute 10 catalogue document (resent under 2026/4097b)","url":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/pdf/foi/2026-09-30_glamorgan-archives_bute-10.doc","mime":"application/msword","bytes":133120,"sha256":"1e3aaf941bbeb767d2cb8bc6534ffc817c93541d8838a0ad87a5dbb63e02e870"}],"textStatus":"available","text":"Ref: 2026/4097b\n\nDear Sion Buckler,\n\nThank you for your additional email that was received on 8th September.  Please accept our apologies for the delay in responding; we have recently been receiving a large number of enquiries.\n\nIn response to your questions below:\n\n\n  1.  Daniel Thomas 1877 deed: we do not appear to hold any deeds relating to this transaction.  A search of our catalogue has been carried out and we cannot suggest any documents that would be worth searching to find record of the transaction you are seeking information on that are within our collections.  There are some records in the Cardiff Library Bute collection that may be relevant though, see point 3 below.\n  2.  D696 Western Ground Rents: please see our catalogue for descriptions of the three volumes included in this collection: D696/1<https://canfod.glamarchives.gov.uk/en/records/D696/1>, D696/2<https://canfod.glamarchives.gov.uk/en/records/D696/2>, D696/3<https://canfod.glamarchives.gov.uk/en/records/D696/3>.  As mentioned previously, a member of our team could search these records on your behalf at a charge, or they can be accessed for free in our public searchroom.  Only once the records have been searched would we be able to confirm whether any information is held within them in relation to land in Llandough and Ty Mawr / Great House Farm.\n  3.  Cardiff Library Bute Estate records: one possible record that could be worth searching in this collection is document reference Bute X.6(12) which contains abstracts of payments and receipts by the trustees of the Marquis of Bute's properties, 1877 (copy).

The key transaction I am trying to locate and verify is the 1877 transaction concerning Daniel Thomas and the Bute Estate, which I understand from the surviving family evidence to have concerned a defined portion of Great House Farm, including the farmhouse and surrounding land. I see an 1877 agreement between both parties, for that year, but for a different property in Cardiff. I wondered if it was mis labelled and if you could validify its content, particularly any map data. So as the integrity of the descriptor of the record is assured or revisited.\n\nThe issue is whether the Bute Estate conveyed, granted or otherwise dealt with that defined parcel in favour of Daniel Thomas, and, crucially, what the instrument and its plan actually show about the boundaries and the nature of the interest created. In 1877.\n\nThis is important because the present documentary reconstruction I am preparing treats the 1877 instrument as the potential starting point for the separate House Plot chain. The working case is that the instrument dealt with the farmhouse land separately from the eastern agricultural/quarrying parcel, with provisions connected to quarrying and the subsequent passing of the house land to the occupying Williams family when quarrying ceased. That proposition is expressly being treated as a matter requiring verification against the original instrument and plan, rather than as an established fact.\n\nI therefore wonder whether the catalogue search could be reconsidered specifically on the following basis:\n\nBute Estate → Daniel Thomas → defined land at Llandough / Great House Farm, approximately 1876–1878\n\nincluding instruments which may not themselves be catalogued under “Great House Farm” or “Daniel Thomas”, but which might appear under:\n\n  *   the name of the property or former field name;\n  *   the Marquess of Bute or his trustees as grantor;\n  *   Daniel Thomas as builder, quarryman, lime-burner or occupier;\n  *   a lease, conveyance, agreement, surrender or counterpart;\n  *   quarrying or mineral rights;\n  *   a plan accompanying an instrument;\n  *   or a transaction recorded in a Bute Estate rental, ledger or estate correspondence rather than in the deed catalogue.\n\nI appreciate that your catalogue may simply contain no surviving record of this transaction. If that is the position, that is useful information in itself. What I am particularly trying to establish is whether the 1877 transaction has been positively searched for and not found, as opposed to there being no later catalogue entry linking Daniel or Alfred Thomas to the Bute Estate.\n\nD696 and the later Western Ground Rents material\n\nThank you also for pointing me towards D696. Please do let me know which item(s) within D696 contain the book plans and rental books for Western Ground Rents Ltd c.1938–1944, particularly anything relating to Great House Farm, Llandough or the land occupied by John Williams.\n\nThis is potentially very relevant because the documentary issue I am investigating is whether the later WGR estate corresponded geographically with the parcel dealt with by the Bute Estate in 1877, or instead with the separate agricultural/quarrying parcel.\n\nBute Estate finding aid\n\nI would also be grateful if you could retain my enquiry against the Bute Estate material being transferred from Cardiff Library. In particular, I would be interested in any items concerning:\n\n  *   Llandough / Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr;\n  *   Daniel Thomas;\n  *   the 1870s Bute Estate conveyances or leases;\n  *   estate plans showing parcel boundaries;\n  *   quarrying or lime works;\n  *   rentals distinguishing the farm from the farmhouse/cottages; and\n  *   subsequent dealings with the relevant parcels.\n\n1910 Land Valuation map\n\nFinally, thank you for identifying DVAL/1/33. If Glamorgan Archives has any information enabling me to identify the corresponding 1910 valuation map held by The National Archives, I would be grateful for the relevant reference. I am trying to make a targeted request rather than simply asking The National Archives to search broadly for a Llandough map.\n\nThank you again for your assistance. The clarification regarding what is and is not held at Glamorgan Archives is useful, and I appreciate your help in narrowing down the surviving documentary trail.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\n**********************************************************************\nThe Council welcomes correspondence in Welsh, English or bilingually.

I note the five-week target.\n\nPlease treat this email as a supplement to that complaint. The attached is my report of GGATs involvement to the extent I know and a current consolidated account of GGAT’s role as curator, advisor, contractor and record-holder at Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough, and of the record now held by Heneb.\n\nAttachment\nGGAT — Forensic Critique, Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough, Version 4.0.3 (Final), 30 September 2026.\n\nMy AI agent generated report based on the info I hold thus far, does attempt to  distinguish established facts, reasonable inferences, matters that cannot be established, and facts that cut against the criticism. I took care not to allege dishonesty, bad faith or criminal conduct by named officers. It records nine defects: the standing building; the 1982–1988 SMR gap; an evaluation method mismatched to GGAT’s own predictive model; specify-price-bid-execute on the same application; a missing representation from a County Councillor identified as a member of GGAT; access converted into a “non-existent to low” zoning; failure to answer the Disused Burial Grounds question GGAT itself raised; a still-misclassified and inconsistently identified HER; and the absence, until your appointment, of any substantive institutional answer.\n\nWhat I ask Heneb to do on this complaint\n\n1. Give me a complaint reference and confirm the target date for a written response.\n\n2. Confirm which legal entity now holds GGAT’s records for this site (Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust Limited, company 01276976 / charity 505609 / Heneb operationally).\n\n3. Correct or formally review HER GGAT02038s, which remains classified as “POST MEDIEVAL – Farm” despite the 1994 cemetery and the 2005 publication of 1,026 burials as the largest early-medieval burial population then recovered in Wales.\n\n4. Reconcile the HER identifiers already supplied to the family (including GGAT02038s, GGAT03586s and GGATE003872) and supply the source file, not a public summary.\n\n5. Search and disclose, or certify as not held: file S387; the 1 October 1982 letter; the 1989 consultee report on 89/01396/OUT; the 8 February 1990 further comments (Appendix B to the officer’s report); the 1990 assessment archive; any emergency building record, watching brief or fabric report on the December 1988 demolition; and any conflicts register or trustee minute for the 1989–90 commission.\n\n6. Address the nine criticisms in the attached report in writing.\n\nOur family’s wider case, so the complaint is not read as a cataloguing dispute only\n\nSeparately from the archaeological record:\n\nI believe there has been fraud, concealment and government involvement resulting in the dispossession of our home and land. The family has occupied and claimed Great House Farm since at least 1667. In 1988, after BP Properties Ltd v Buckler, we were removed. The farmhouse was demolished on 6 December 1988. About twenty houses now stand on that ground. The narrative that followed treated us as peasant squatters evicted from an old farmhouse. That narrative is false.\n\nIn reconstructing the house as a Welsh heritage museum in Patagonia I found that our ownership of the house-and-garden parcel was never extinguished. The working case is two parcels: Parcel A (house and garden) belonging to Mary Williams; Parcel B treated as if it were the whole farm; a synthetic title built by decades of false assertion that occupation of Parcel A was permissive. Limitation is postponed if concealment is made out.\n\nThat title case is for the Land Registry, the courts and the other bodies already on notice. It is not for Heneb to adjudicate. It is why the archaeological record matters. The same ground GGAT evaluated as largely empty contained inhumations a few centimetres below the topsoil. RCAHMW’s own file records that the standing building remained partially recorded because of the ownership dispute, and was then destroyed.\n\nOur family has suffered shame, dispossession, ostracisation, exile, reputational harm, and the loss of our ancestral home, land and an incompletely recorded building. There were, on our case, serious human-rights failures in how that was done too. Such as my pregnant mum being thrown over the gateway of our property into a puddle, which is why she is in a sling with a dislocated collar bone on ITV News Wales footage afterwards. She was trying to get medicine for my father who lay in hospital after a heart attack. I watched helpless, as a child, while our home was demolished in front of us.\n\nI am giving each institution that held a public function over this site the opportunity to remedy what it accepts. For Heneb that means putting the record right, producing what it holds, and saying plainly where GGAT’s 1978–1995 conduct and the present HER fail the standards that applied then and apply now. Remedy from Heneb is correction of the record, disclosure, and an accountable written position — not a finding on title.\n\nPlease confirm receipt of the attached report and that it forms part of the complaint file you are investigating.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a0f294c9b3320c1","subject":"RE: FOI — Mary Williams probate records — death certificate enclosed","name":"RE: FOI — Mary Williams probate records — death certificate enclosed","date":"2026-09-30T13:50:21Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0f294c9b3320c1.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0e0b7ebcf0f20f-foi-mary-williams-probate-records-death-certificate-enclosed","scopeTopics":["moj"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["moj"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0e0b7ebcf0f20f","direction":"received","from":"Disclosure Team","institutions":[{"id":"moj","name":"Ministry of Justice / HMCTS"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0f294c9b3320c1.json","textStatus":"available","text":"OFFICIAL\n\n\nGood afternoon,\n\n\n\nThank you for your email.

She was the occupier and asserted owner of Great House Farm (Ty Mawr alias Cedfin aka Cedwyn), Llandough-juxta-Penarth, Cardiff.\n\nMy request, submitted 7 June 2026, seeks access to any probate records, wills, affidavits, or ownership claim documents referenced in court proceedings relating to Mary Williams and Great House Farm, Llandough, particularly in connection with the proceedings recorded in BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2.\n\nPlease can you confirm receipt and advise the expected response date.\n\nWith talk of civil war on the horizon and already a lot of government fiduciaries in less possession of records than I am in possession of, due to so much destruction of property and records and gaps in records by the government in this case, I am keen to salvage what remains of my family's history and heritage so that the historians and I at the Welsh settlement in Argentina can celebrate my family's homes and strongholds, Welsh history and heritage, rather than waiting more than the almost years we have already waited for the British State to stop its endless war it has waged on us to ethnically cleanse us indigenous Britons from our ancestral birthland in Wales. We'll just return if/when someone overthrows this terrorist organisation, the British State we now seem to be harbouring on the British Isles. All fear and respect for the United Kingdom government has gone for our family. Few care if you now bring guns and finish the job of erasing us, as they have lived four decades in what is effectively the concentration work-camp conditions our towns and cities have been turned into.\n\nBut before our county treasure, the former courthouse manorial 10-bedroom courthouse, was demolished, or looted of all our furniture from Cardiff by what appears to be SAS under cover as BP bailiffs, I do remember a different realm from the one now blocking out the sun on the British Isles. A realm less demonic, on our sacred Welsh Christian stronghold, upon which the suppressed history and heritage once stood: the Roman villa and medieval burial site and Celtic 2,200-year-old roundhouse and monastery. And Marconi staying with us while inventing radio, or world champion boxer Peerless Jim Driscoll fighting his first fight in our barns. Today there is no history tourist-board plaque, no park-bench plaque. Just 20 characterless houses, 13 of which are on our stolen occupied land.\n\nAs a bona fide, certified and experienced military commander and leader and warfare professional and war veteran, who was subject of this siege on our land and home in 1988, I have to say it is important to call a kettle black and call this what it was and is. This is all synonymous with a terrorist organisation, network or cell, committing an act of terrorism. Establishing a terrorist camp for its officers or PoW/hostages. Following an act of terrorism (my pregnant mum also thrown over our gate, into a puddle, collarbone dislocated, just for seeking medicine for my father who lay in the hospital bed after police left him in a cell and ignored him, complaining of a heart attack for six hours).\n\nMy family have lived as terrified hostage-like prisoners of war under the British State in Wales. Too frightened to speak up or out about any of this. Since everyone who has challenged acquiescing in our own replacement in my family, on our land since 1667, seems to have died at very convenient timings.\n\nI don't fully understand how deep this all goes. I suspect it was a military operation disguised as a civilian action. Perhaps hybrid warfare annexure of our land as some of the last in Wales to fall victim to British State imperialsim. Our home was literally looted of our furniture from Cardiff castle. Our lands were literally looted of medieval burials. Including roman coins and so forth. Much of which ended up in a suspicious fire in Neath.\n\nI have called for a public enquiry from the Senedd. But it seems the fight to keep burying us alive is a never ending one.\n\nI wish you all the best with the civil war you've waged on us indigenous Britons on our ancestral birthland. I see the British State for what it is now. A terrorist organisation my countrymen will surely soon stop harbouring on our island.\n\nI think there's a small window of opportunity in our families case for your regime to even just take a break from trying to make us into striped pjamad hostages. And allow us to restore even parts of our dignity and minor gentry manorial 800 year old home and 4 century of occupancy before you stole and destroyed it by force.\n\nWe don't even seek to try to enjoy our language, history and herritage under this terrorist anarcho tyrant ethnic cleansing demonic realm regime in Wales anymore. We're committed to rebuilding the replica of our former home in Patagonia where our existence and culture and language and herritage as a race and ethnicity, isn't being actively exterminated and concealed and supressed.\n\nI did my 22 years in Oath. Served in war. I'm bona fide, left my military career with full honours. I'm a warfare professional and certified and experienced military commander and leader. And I can't even get back basic FOI's, after almost a year from many branches of your government. And I don't think its all negigence or incompetence.\n\nI think there's concealment and fraud and government involvement and your government are in dishonour and are a disgrace in this whole case and treatment of my family and our home and history and herritage.\n\nI feel having brought all this to everyone's attention. Which was also very difficult and sensitive to do considering nobody in my family will even speak up or out about it. To be met with such negligence and incompetence and obtuse, hostile, unco-operative, railroading and gatekeeping and delay is a disgrace.\n\nThis is nothing short of a nightmare under a demonic realm in a concentration work camp where we're being ethnically cleansed and ignored. There is no democracy here. There is no peace here.\n\nChurch View Close Llandough was once our lands of centuries. Its been nothing short of a crime scene since BP arrived onto the scene in 1969. It's only in these last few decades of the beautiful undisturbed centuries of life on our land overlooking Cardiff, WHICH WE STILL OWN, despite you lot illegally occupying it - its only in the last few decades we've seen all this ethnic cleansing British imperialism turned inwards on us.\n\nThe evidence is all in this case. The words I use to describe this are strong, but are actually proportionate to what has happened in this case. And is ongoing because nothing and nobody is doing a thing to undo this dogs dinner of a society.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\nWilliams/Buckler Family — Great House Farm, Llandough\n________________________________\nThis e-mail and any attachments is intended only for the attention of the addressee(s).

I note the five-week target.\n\nPlease treat this email as a supplement to that complaint. The attached is\nmy report of GGATs involvement to the extent I know and a current\nconsolidated account of GGAT’s role as curator, advisor, contractor and\nrecord-holder at Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough, and of the record\nnow held by Heneb.\n\nAttachment\nGGAT — Forensic Critique, Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough, Version\n4.0.3 (Final), 30 September 2026.\n\nMy AI agent generated report based on the info I hold thus far, does\nattempt to  distinguish established facts, reasonable inferences, matters\nthat cannot be established, and facts that cut against the criticism. I\ntook care not to allege dishonesty, bad faith or criminal conduct by named\nofficers. It records nine defects: the standing building; the 1982–1988 SMR\ngap; an evaluation method mismatched to GGAT’s own predictive model;\nspecify-price-bid-execute on the same application; a missing representation\nfrom a County Councillor identified as a member of GGAT; access converted\ninto a “non-existent to low” zoning; failure to answer the Disused Burial\nGrounds question GGAT itself raised; a still-misclassified and\ninconsistently identified HER; and the absence, until your appointment, of\nany substantive institutional answer.\n\nWhat I ask Heneb to do on this complaint\n\n1. Give me a complaint reference and confirm the target date for a written\nresponse.\n\n2. Confirm which legal entity now holds GGAT’s records for this site\n(Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust Limited, company 01276976 / charity\n505609 / Heneb operationally).\n\n3. Correct or formally review HER GGAT02038s, which remains classified as\n“POST MEDIEVAL – Farm” despite the 1994 cemetery and the 2005 publication\nof 1,026 burials as the largest early-medieval burial population then\nrecovered in Wales.\n\n4. Reconcile the HER identifiers already supplied to the family (including\nGGAT02038s, GGAT03586s and GGATE003872) and supply the source file, not a\npublic summary.\n\n5. Search and disclose, or certify as not held: file S387; the 1 October\n1982 letter; the 1989 consultee report on 89/01396/OUT; the 8 February 1990\nfurther comments (Appendix B to the officer’s report); the 1990 assessment\narchive; any emergency building record, watching brief or fabric report on\nthe December 1988 demolition; and any conflicts register or trustee minute\nfor the 1989–90 commission.\n\n6. Address the nine criticisms in the attached report in writing.\n\nOur family’s wider case, so the complaint is not read as a cataloguing\ndispute only\n\nSeparately from the archaeological record:\n\nI believe there has been fraud, concealment and government involvement\nresulting in the dispossession of our home and land. The family has\noccupied and claimed Great House Farm since at least 1667. In 1988, after\nBP Properties Ltd v Buckler, we were removed. The farmhouse was demolished\non 6 December 1988. About twenty houses now stand on that ground. The\nnarrative that followed treated us as peasant squatters evicted from an old\nfarmhouse. That narrative is false.\n\nIn reconstructing the house as a Welsh heritage museum in Patagonia I found\nthat our ownership of the house-and-garden parcel was never extinguished.\nThe working case is two parcels: Parcel A (house and garden) belonging to\nMary Williams; Parcel B treated as if it were the whole farm; a synthetic\ntitle built by decades of false assertion that occupation of Parcel A was\npermissive. Limitation is postponed if concealment is made out.\n\nThat title case is for the Land Registry, the courts and the other bodies\nalready on notice. It is not for Heneb to adjudicate. It is why the\narchaeological record matters. The same ground GGAT evaluated as largely\nempty contained inhumations a few centimetres below the topsoil. RCAHMW’s\nown file records that the standing building remained partially recorded\nbecause of the ownership dispute, and was then destroyed.\n\nOur family has suffered shame, dispossession, ostracisation, exile,\nreputational harm, and the loss of our ancestral home, land and an\nincompletely recorded building. There were, on our case, serious\nhuman-rights failures in how that was done too. Such as my pregnant mum\nbeing thrown over the gateway of our property into a puddle, which is why\nshe is in a sling with a dislocated collar bone on ITV News Wales footage\nafterwards. She was trying to get medicine for my father who lay in\nhospital after a heart attack. I watched helpless, as a child, while our\nhome was demolished in front of us.\n\nI am giving each institution that held a public function over this site the\nopportunity to remedy what it accepts. For Heneb that means putting the\nrecord right, producing what it holds, and saying plainly where GGAT’s\n1978–1995 conduct and the present HER fail the standards that applied then\nand apply now. Remedy from Heneb is correction of the record, disclosure,\nand an accountable written position — not a finding on title.\n\nPlease confirm receipt of the attached report and that it forms part of the\ncomplaint file you are investigating.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a0f25f79b136104","subject":"[NLW English] Preservation notice — Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough — do not destroy, transfer or dispose","name":"[NLW English] Preservation notice — Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough — do not destroy, transfer or dispose","date":"2026-09-30T12:52:17Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0f25f79b136104.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0e9e1e5a4586bf-nlw-english-preservation-notice-great-house-farm-t-mawr-llandough-do-not-destroy-transfer-or-dispose","scopeTopics":["nlw"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["nlw"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0e9e1e5a4586bf","direction":"received","from":"National Library of Wales","institutions":[{"id":"nlw","name":"National Library of Wales"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0f25f79b136104.json","textStatus":"available","text":"--# Teipiwch eich ateb uwchben y llinell hon #--\n------------------\n\nNia Daniel\n\nSep 30 2026, 01:52PM via System\nDear Sir\n \nPlease refer to previous correspondence for details of the searches conducted on your behalf.\n \nWe can reassure you that as a Library and archive we do not routinely destroy, transfer or dispose\nof historical documents.\n \nYours faithfully,\n------------------\n\nCwestiwn gwreiddiol\n\nSep 28 2026, 10:42PM via Email\nPreservation notice — Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough — do not destroy, transfer or dispose\nTo each recipient, in your own capacity as holder or likely holder of\nrecords.

The issue I am raising is whether the documentary history gives\nrise to potential criminal offences, whether those matters warrant\ninvestigation, and, if a private prosecution is subsequently instituted,\nwhether the circumstances are such that the Director's power under section\n6(2) of the Prosecution of Offences Act 1985 should be considered.\n\n1. Police engagement and current references\n\nOn 28 September 2026 I submitted a formal crime-recording request to South\nWales Police ([email redacted]), copied to Stephen Doughty\nMP for constituency-record purposes only.\n\nThe request asks South Wales Police to record, or explain in writing why\nthey will not record, a report concerning suspected fraud and related\nconcealment in the creation and subsequent use of registered title to the\nformer Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough. It identifies, in particular,\nthe first-registration application for WA231076 dated 30 November 1982, the\napplication for WA240304 dated 23 February 1983, and matters arising from\nthe subsequent 1987 proceedings.\n\nI also have a live Subject Access Request with South Wales Police\nconcerning the 1988 eviction and demolition and related personal data.\n\nI previously reported suspected irregularities concerning the 1982\nregistration to HM Land Registry (reference 260202-5732372). Further HM\nLand Registry enquiry references include 260929-6766714 and related\nreferences generated in September 2026.\n\nIf a Report Fraud reference is issued, I will provide it immediately. For\npresent purposes, I ask that the South Wales Police crime-recording request\nand the HM Land Registry report of suspected registration irregularities be\ntreated as the principal current investigative references.\n\n2. Documentary title sequence and suspected criminality\n\nThe public evidence index is available at:\n\nhttps://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/\n\nThe material assembled there identifies a documentary sequence which, in my\npresent assessment, raises questions as to whether the family's historic\nproprietary interest in the farmhouse parcel was displaced through the use\nof records, possession evidence and registration material relating to a\ndifferent or wider parcel, and whether subsequent registration and dealings\nthen relied upon that resulting title position.\n\nFor convenience, I refer on the website to this as the \"synthetic title\"\nissue. That is a description of the documentary pattern I have identified,\nrather than an assumption that criminal liability has already been\nestablished.\n\nThe distinction is important because the 1987 Court of Appeal proceedings\nconcerned possession, limitation and the October 1974 correspondence. My\nconcern is that those proceedings did not determine the underlying\ndocumentary root of title to the farmhouse parcel now represented by the\nregistered title history.\n\n3. 1955 possession order and the neighbouring parcel\n\nA further issue requiring examination is the relationship between the 1955\npossession order and the land historically occupied and claimed by the\nWilliams/Buckler family.\n\nMy evidence indicates that the 1955 order related to a neighbouring parcel\nrather than the family's core farmhouse holding. I am concerned that\nsubsequent possession and development activity may nevertheless have\ntreated that order, or the associated possession history, as extending to\nland outside the parcel to which it actually related.\n\nRecent excavation and works on the former family land make this a live\nevidential issue. I ask that the underlying order, plans, descriptions and\nsubsequent land use be considered against the documentary title sequence\nrather than assuming that the parcels were identical.\n\n4. Possible loss or destruction of relevant records\n\nI hold dated photographs concerning works which removed a commemorative\ntree planted by my great-grandfather on or adjoining the former Great House\nFarm / Church View Close land.\n\nI have made a narrowed FOI request to the Vale of Glamorgan Council (case\n00211484) seeking the instruction, works order, authorisation and any\nrecord linking the tree to the Williams/Buckler family or to the 1988\ndemolition.\n\nMore generally, I am concerned that parts of the planning and land-history\nrecord which could bear upon the ownership history are incomplete or\nunavailable. I am not presently asking the CPS to draw an inference from\nthat absence. I ask that any potentially relevant records held by public\nauthorities or other custodians be identified and preserved while the\npolice and other investigations are ongoing.\n\n5. Existing correspondence and preservation\n\nI have maintained a continuous documentary record of communications\nconcerning these issues with:\n\n- South Wales Police, including FOI, SAR, crime-recording and preservation\ncorrespondence;\n- HM Land Registry and the Independent Complaints Reviewer (ICR/090/26);\n- Cadw, Heneb, RCAHMW, Glamorgan Archives, National Library of Wales and\nother heritage bodies; and\n- Vale of Glamorgan Council, including FOI requests and internal reviews.\n\nPreservation requests/notices have also been made to principal\nrecord-holders where I consider material may be relevant, so that\npotentially significant evidence is not inadvertently destroyed,\ntransferred or disposed of while these matters are being examined.\n\n6. Request to CPS Cymru-Wales\n\nI respectfully ask CPS Cymru-Wales to:\n\n(a) note the South Wales Police crime-recording request of 28 September\n2026 and HM Land Registry reference 260202-5732372 as the present principal\nreferences, with any subsequent police or Report Fraud reference to be\nadded when available;\n\n(b) ensure that the material is considered by the appropriate CPS\nprosecutor or team if it is referred for prosecutorial consideration,\nincluding consideration of whether the alleged documentary conduct raises\nsufficiently serious or complex criminal issues to require specialist\ncasework;\n\n(c) note that, should a private prosecution subsequently be instituted, I\nmay make a specific request for the CPS to consider the Director's power\nunder section 6(2) of the Prosecution of Offences Act 1985; and\n\n(d) advise me of the appropriate procedure for making such a request, and\nthe evidence CPS would require, if that stage is reached.\n\nI appreciate that the CPS does not itself conduct the police investigation.\nMy purpose at this stage is to ensure that the potential prosecutorial\ndimension is properly identified and that the present material is capable\nof being matched to any police investigation or later referral.\n\nI remain ready to provide an indexed evidential bundle comprising the 1955\nand 1974 material, historical conveyances and plans, HM Land Registry\ndocumentation for WA231076, WA240304 and related titles, relevant court\nrecords, chronology, and photographs concerning the former property and\nsubsequent works. The website provides a public index to much of this\nmaterial.\n\nI note the previous deadline of 13 October 2026.

I do not expect a reply before the stage-one response. It adds seven matters under the existing headings at section 7, and one addition to the outcomes at section 9, set out at the end.\n\nThe public interest is engaged alongside my family's. Great House Farm stood beside the Grade I church at Llandough, was recorded by the Royal Commission in 1974, sat within a known archaeological site, and was described in the post-demolition planning record as a \"county treasure\". I do not ask Cadw to treat the 1994 discoveries as knowledge it had in 1988. They show what was lost; the pre-1988 record is the measure of Cadw's process.\n\nOn my family's account and the contemporary press report, protection was being sought in the first days of December 1988 and the house was demolished almost immediately afterwards. I do not ask Cadw to determine responsibility for the demolition. The grievance is narrower: protection was sought at the critical moment, and Cadw cannot now show what it considered.\n\n1. The adopted development plan (matter A)\n\nThe planning officer's report on application 89/01396/OUT records that the supporting information to Policy H.2 of the East Vale Local Plan \"states that buildings on the site should be retained, however were unfortunately demolished a little while ago.\" I do not say this bound Cadw or required listing. I ask:\n(a) was Cadw aware of it in December 1988;\n(b) did the planning authority draw it to Cadw's attention; and\n(c) if neither can be established, will Cadw say so expressly.\n\n2. The search undertaken on 21 May (matters D and F)\n\nMr Weatherhead wrote that he had asked a colleague to search other paper files, \"including the Welsh Office files\", and would write again with the result, while fairly warning that some files had quite likely been destroyed. I have not received that letter. Please confirm whether the search was carried out, which series were searched, what was found, and whether Cadw regards the ATISN 27021 response of 11 June as its report of that search.\n\n3. The meaning of \"YYY\" (matter J)\n\nCadw has given two accounts of the marking — that the buildings were \"marginally below the bar for listing\" (21 May) and that the building did not meet the criteria (10 July) — and one inference, that it did not meet the criteria \"as it was not included on the list\" (29 July). I ask for one settled meaning, the documentary source for it, and, if there is none, a statement to that effect.\n\n4. The retention period (matter J)\n\nYour email of 27 August said that no records of the historic retention arrangements are available, and that the three-year period is what current colleagues advised from their knowledge of the systems then in place. I ask only that the complaint response confirm expressly that this is an account of general practice, not evidence that the Great House Farm file was in fact destroyed after three years.\n\n5. Professional archaeological knowledge of this site before December 1988 (matter C)\n\nOn 22 September 2026 Amgueddfa Cymru disclosed to me, under FOI 2026-032, its collections records for two accessions from this site. The first, 82.44H, is the material from the Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust's excavation of 1979 on land formerly part of Great House Farm, carried out in advance of housing development. The museum's records give the findspot as ST 168 733, the donor as Wales & West Housing Association Ltd, and the published report as Owen-John 1988. The accession runs to several hundred entries and includes Roman coins, samian, glass, a bone scabbard slide and querns, together with medieval pottery and ironwork.\n\nThis is not archaeology discovered after the event. By the time Cadw considered this building, the site had been professionally excavated, the finds had been accessioned by the national museum under a 1982 accession number, and the excavation report had been published. I therefore ask, as an addition to matter C:\n(a) whether Cadw held, or had access to, the 1979 excavation record or its published report when it considered the buildings in 1988;\n(b) whether that material was drawn to its attention by GGAT, the planning authority or the Royal Commission; and\n(c) if neither can now be established, that Cadw say so in terms.\n\nI do not say this material required the building to be listed. I say that the conclusion recorded in December 1988, that the site was not of sufficient archaeological interest, was reached against a professional record that already existed and is still held by the national museum today.\n\n6. The National Museum attribution (matter H)\n\nThe GGAT assessment of August 1990, which Cadw supplied to me on 21 May, states that \"it is likely that some medieval ironwork which is held by the National Museum of Wales was discovered under the rear wing c 1880 (RCAHMW 1988).\"\n\nThe museum's disclosure allows that sentence to be tested, and the position is more precise than either of us has previously put it. The museum does hold medieval ironwork from this site — knife blades, arrowheads, a buckle and a pair of compasses within accession 82.44H — but as excavated material from 1979, not as an 1880 discovery beneath the rear wing. Its searches found no accession, donation or deposit answering the c.1880 provenance at all. The museum's own explanation, given in its disclosure, is that objects recorded as found at Church Farm, Llandough in 1858 and donated in 1963 under accession 63.24 \"could well be the basis for such a local story/tradition\".\n\nI therefore no longer ask Cadw to accept that the attribution is uncorroborated in the round. I ask, more narrowly, whether Cadw holds anything supporting the c.1880 rear-wing provenance beyond the GGAT sentence it forwarded, and whether it will ask that the derived record note the museum's findings rather than continue to carry the 1880 attribution unqualified.\n\n7. Correcting the record (matter H)\n\nYou directed me to Heneb as manager of the HER, which was reasonable. The only substantive reply I have had from Heneb is its statement of 22 May that it is not subject to FOI as a limited company; a schedule I sent on 19 September remains outstanding.\n\nThe museum's disclosure now gives a firm anchor for what the record should show. Accession 95.56H comprises the material from the Cotswold Archaeological Trust excavation of 1994, donated by Ideal Homes Wales Ltd, and its locality is recorded in the museum's own collections database as \"Great House Farm Llandough\" at ST 1681 7331 — the grid reference carried by the historic environment record for this site. That accession runs to several hundred sets of early medieval human remains from this ground.\n\nAs the statutory duty to keep historic environment records rests with the Welsh Ministers, I ask:\n(a) which body is responsible for correcting an inaccurate or incomplete historic environment record;\n(b) what Cadw's own role is where the record is managed by Heneb; and\n(c) what Cadw will do if the entry for this site (GGAT02038s) is not corrected to reflect the 1979 and 1994 excavations and the accessions arising from them.\n\nCorrection to my letter of 20 September\n\nI said [email redacted]  had rejected my correspondence on three occasions. Having checked properly, it rejected messages on at least eight occasions between January and September 2026: 23 January; 9 May (twice); 17 May; 10 August; 11 August; 29 August; and 17 September. Separate failures on 29 August and 17 September came from the retired address [email redacted] . I correct this because I have asked Cadw to distinguish what is established from what is inferred, and the same standard applies to me.\n\nAddition to the outcomes at section 9\n\n6. A written acknowledgement that the 21 May undertaking was not reported on, and that Cadw's accounts of the 1988 assessment have varied.\n7. A single statement of what can and cannot now be established about the 1988 decisions, which my family can rely on and cite.\n8. That Cadw write to Heneb and the Royal Commission asking that their records for this site reflect that statement and the museum's accession records.\n9. Consideration, under the Welsh Government complaints policy, of redress for the time and trouble my family has spent since May pursuing questions that Cadw's own records could not answer.\n\nI am content to supply the museum's disclosure to Cadw if that would assist, and my offer of 20 September stands: any 1988 Cadw correspondence recovered from the Royal Commission or Heneb will be sent to you. I remain grateful for the courtesy you and your colleagues have shown me.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\nSganiwyd y neges hon am bob feirws hysbys wrth iddi adael Llywodraeth Cymru.

It does not replace that letter. It does not ask\nyou to adjudicate title.\n\nThree corrections to the letter of 20 September\n\n1. A sentence in the middle of that letter was left unfinished. Please\ndisregard it. Nothing in the requests depends on it.\n\n2. The HM Land Registry letter forwarded by the constituency MP was dated\n18 September 2026, not “yesterday”. On 27 September I wrote separately to\nHM Land Registry to correct a year I had used in earlier correspondence\nabout titles WA231076 and WA240304. That correction is not a request to you.\n\n3. I asked whether guidance under section 196 had been issued. Cadw’s\npublished page now states that Historic Environment Records in Wales:\nCompilation and Use (2017) is issued as statutory guidance under section\n196 of the 2023 Act. What I still need is confirmation whether that 2017\ntext has been substantively reviewed since sections 194 to 196 came into\nforce on 4 November 2024, and the date on which the current guidance was\nissued under section 196 and laid before Senedd Cymru. I would also be\ngrateful for confirmation whether the current guidance addresses primary\nclassification of records and the behaviour of the public interface.\n\nWhat has happened since 20 September, relevant to the duties\n\nOn 27 September I made a formal complaint to Heneb concerning the HER\nidentifiers, classification and the 1978–1995 record. Steven Foulston\nacknowledged it on 29 September as investigating officer, with a five-week\ntarget. That is Heneb’s own process. It does not discharge the Ministers’\nduties under sections 194 and 195.\n\nOn 29 September the Royal Commission (RC26-0375) supplied the core\ndescription it says is used for GGAT02038s on Archwilio. That description\nis of a post-medieval farmhouse and barn. It records medieval finds, the\n1974 survey and the demolition of 6 December 1988. The live HER also links\nthe site to the separate 1994 excavation event, GGATE003875, which contains\nthe excavation details and findings.\n\nThe adequacy question in my letter of 20 September can therefore be put\nmore precisely: whether the HER, taken as a whole, provides the details of\nrelevant investigations and their findings required by section 194(2)(j),\nand whether the way those records are classified, linked and presented\npublicly is sufficient for that purpose.\n\nCadw’s stage-one complaint on the 1988 listing decision remains open\n(ticket #628635887). That is a separate file. I mention it only so the two\nare not confused. The latest position is that the complaints investigation\nhas commenced.\n\nThe five requests in the letter of 20 September stand. The one that can be\ntested immediately remains the Archwilio silent-substitution question:\nwhether an unresolved HER reference can silently resolve to a different\nrecord without warning.\n\nI will work to the published seventeen-working-day response aim from 20\nSeptember. If a substantive response will take longer, I would be grateful\nsimply to be told.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a0efc00fee23928","subject":"Automatic reply: [2] Re: Supplement to complaint re-served 20 September 2026 — Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough","name":"Automatic reply: [2] Re: Supplement to complaint re-served 20 September 2026 — Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough","date":"2026-09-30T00:38:53Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0efc00fee23928.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0efc00fee23928-automatic-reply-2-re-supplement-to-complaint-re-served-20-september-2026-great-house-farm-t-mawr-llandough","scopeTopics":["cadw"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["cadw"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0efc00fee23928","direction":"received","from":"(name not shown; gov.wales)","institutions":[{"id":"cadw","name":"Welsh Government / Cadw"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0efc00fee23928.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Diolch am eich neges.\nRydw allan o'r Swyddfa.\nByddaf yn delio â’m he-byst ar ôl dychwelyd (1/10/26).\nAm unrhyw beth brys cysylltwch â [email redacted] \n\nThank you for your message.\nI am out of the office.\nI will respond to my e-mails on my return (1/10/26).\nIf your email is urgent please contact [email redacted] \n\n\n\nSganiwyd y neges hon am bob feirws hysbys wrth iddi adael Llywodraeth Cymru.

A written stage-one decision on whether Cadw’s 1988 assessment was\nadequate having regard to the material then available and the criteria and\nprocess applicable at the time, including the relevant 1979 GGAT excavation\nrecord concerning the Roman villa and associated early-medieval archaeology\non land formerly within the farm holding.\n\n2.

It is\nparticularly helpful to have your confirmation that Archive 6048945 records\nRichard Suggett's visit to the site after its demolition in December 1988,\nand for identifying Archives 6048941, 6048942 and 6048944.\n\nI have considered your response alongside the Commission's catalogue\nentries and the other records now available. Before any of the outstanding\nSeptember requests are treated as concluded, I need to clarify one\ndistinction.\n\nYou state (as in your emails of 28 May, 10 June and 11 June) that there are\nno letters or records concerning Tŷ Mawr Farm, Llandough, in the\nCommission's registered files, which you describe as the only campaign\nrecords kept in the long term.\n\nI note that answer. My requests were not confined to registered campaign\nfiles. They concern recorded information held by the Commission relating to\nthe site, including records which your own archive identifies as existing,\nlost, received or created in connection with it.\n\nI am happy for the points below to be answered in whatever order is most\nconvenient, provided the FOIA/EIR status and original dates of the\nSeptember requests are preserved. Where a point has already been answered\nin full, a short confirmation that nothing further is held will suffice; I\ndo not wish the Commission to repeat itself.\n\n1. Scope of the search\n\nPlease confirm whether the search has extended beyond registered files to\nother relevant NMRW collections and systems, including (where applicable):\n\n- Inventory working papers, drafts, record cards and historic index cards;\n- field and survey notes;\n- measured drawings, sketches, plans and elevations;\n- maps and plan collections;\n- photographic collections, negatives and indexes;\n- vertical and oblique aerial photography and its indexes;\n- grey literature and unpublished reports;\n- special, personal or specialist collections;\n- background records;\n- historic administrative records;\n- digital and legacy catalogue systems;\n- accession and deposit records;\n- transfer, withdrawal, de-accession or disposal records; and\n- uncatalogued or separately catalogued material reasonably capable of\ncontaining information about the site.\n\nPlease also confirm whether the search used the principal known identifiers\nand variants, including:\n\nGreat House Farm; Great House; Tŷ Mawr; Ty Mawr Farm; Llandough;\nLlandochau; Llandough-juxta-Penarth; NPRN 20182; ST 1681 7331; ST16707335;\nGGAT02038s; Inventory site 425; NA/GL/88/49; NA/GL/89/208; RCS2/1/1777;\nRCS2/1/1776; 6048941; 6048942; 6048944; 6048945; C.N. Johns; CN Johns; and\nMrs Buckler.\n\nIf any of the categories above were not searched, a simple statement to\nthat effect is sufficient.\n\n2. The lost C.N. Johns / Mrs Buckler correspondence\n\nThe surviving Suggett record (Archive 6048945) identifies correspondence\nbetween C.N. Johns and Mrs Buckler as having been lost from the file since\n1986/87.\n\nYour response establishes that the correspondence itself cannot now be\nlocated. Please therefore confirm whether the Commission has also searched\nfor any residual records about that correspondence, including:\n\n- a file cover or wrapper;\n- enclosure or contents list;\n- accession or receipt entry;\n- issue, loan or handling record;\n- reader-request record;\n- catalogue or index card;\n- duplicate copy;\n- draft, extract or summary;\n- contemporary note concerning its absence;\n- later note concerning its loss;\n- correspondence concerning its loss;\n- transfer or return record; or\n- any other record identifying when or how the correspondence ceased to be\nwith the file.\n\nIf none of those records exists, please say so expressly. The question is\nno longer simply whether the correspondence survives, but whether the\nsurviving archive contains any documentary trace of its provenance and\ndisappearance.\n\n3. Archive 6048945\n\nPlease provide the complete surviving contents of Archive 6048945 (every\npage, card, continuation sheet, annotation and enclosure).\n\nPlease also confirm whether 6048945 is a complete standalone record, part\nof a larger file or collection, an extract separated from a parent record,\nor linked in any catalogue, accession or administrative system to other\nrecords concerning Great House Farm/Tŷ Mawr.\n\nYou have confirmed that Suggett visited the site after demolition. Please\nalso confirm whether there is any surviving record giving the date or\npurpose of that visit beyond the description currently catalogued, or any\nassociated site note, field sheet, photograph, sketch or correspondence.\n\n4. NA/GL/88/49 and NA/GL/89/208\n\nThank you for explaining the relationship between those admission\nreferences and Archives 6048945 and 6048941.\n\nPlease confirm whether the Commission retains any admission register entry,\nreceipt, accession sheet, contents list, file wrapper, box/listing record,\ncatalogue amendment, transfer record or other metadata showing what was\noriginally received under NA/GL/88/49 and NA/GL/89/208.\n\nIn particular, if 6048941 is the only surviving record received under\nNA/GL/89/208, please confirm whether that conclusion comes from an original\nadmission record or simply from what is currently visible in the catalogue.\n\n5. RCS2/1/1777 and RCS2/1/1776\n\nI appreciate the clarification concerning Archive Numbers 6364275 and\n6364276.\n\nThe separate question concerning RCS2/1/1777 remains open. Please confirm\nwhether the contents of RCS2/1/1777 have actually been inspected (including\nlocation plan, photographs, captions and associated recording material)\nsufficiently to establish whether the site is Bonvilston or Llandough.\n\nIf it is Bonvilston, I will record that as resolved. If it is Llandough,\nplease explain whether the catalogue has been or will be corrected or\nlinked to NPRN 20182, and provide the contents and copies requested earlier.\n\nPlease also confirm whether RCS2/1/1776 has been checked for the same\nreason.\n\n6. Photographs and aerial photography\n\nI note your explanation that searching the aerial collection may involve a\ncharge.\n\nBefore deciding whether to commission a paid search, please tell me what\nthe Commission's existing indexes or catalogue systems establish about\naerial coverage of the relevant location:\n\n- Is there any aerial coverage containing the site?\n- Is there any vertical or oblique coverage for the relevant period?\n- Is there any photograph taken during or after the demolition?\n- Are there catalogue entries for photographs which are no longer held?\n- Does the Commission have any image connected to NPRN 20182 which is not\npresently visible on Coflein?\n\nThis is relevant to Suggett's statement that there was apparently no\nphotographic record of the site. I would like to distinguish “Suggett could\nidentify no photographic record at the time” from “the Commission has\nsearched its photographic collections and holds no photograph of the site”.\nA nil return following a defined search of the photographic and aerial\nindexes would itself be a useful result.\n\n7. The 1974 survey and the ownership dispute\n\nYour quotation of Archive 6048945 now establishes (as a matter of the\nCommission's own file) that the house remained partially recorded because\nof problems created by an ownership dispute. That point is therefore\nsettled.\n\nPlease confirm whether the Commission holds anything beyond the material\nalready visible on Coflein concerning:\n\n- H.J. Thomas's 26 April 1974 survey;\n- the 1974 site notes;\n- the 12 December 1988 additions to the plan;\n- measured drawings;\n- field notes;\n- correspondence concerning access; or\n- any decision about what could or could not be recorded because of the\nownership dispute.\n\nI am not asking the Commission to adjudicate the ownership dispute. I am\nseeking only to establish what recording opportunities existed and what\nrecords were actually made. (For context, the Commission's post-demolition\naddition to the 1974 plan on 12 December 1988 is the only institutional\nbuilding-recording event identified in the immediate aftermath of the\ndemolition.)\n\n8. Transfers, retention and disposal\n\nPlease confirm whether any records concerning Great House Farm/Tŷ Mawr were\never transferred to another repository, received from another repository,\nreturned to a depositor, withdrawn, de-accessioned, destroyed, or otherwise\nremoved from the Commission's custody. Where such an event occurred, please\nprovide the recorded date, description, authority/reference and destination\nwhere held.\n\nIn particular, please confirm whether relevant material was ever\ntransferred to or received from Cadw/Welsh Office/Welsh Government,\nGlamorgan Archives, The National Archives, Amgueddfa Cymru, GGAT/Heneb or\nanother institution. (I note that the public HER entry GGAT02038s now\nincorporates material derived from the Commission's 1988 records; any\nresidual administrative link or transfer record relating to that would be\nuseful.)\n\n9. The nineteenth-century deposit\n\nThank you for identifying Archives 6048942 and 6048944.\n\nI am not asking the Commission to endorse the historical account. I would\nlike the provenance of the RCAHMW record established, so far as it can be:\n\n- what source was used to create Archive 6048942;\n- whether that source was contemporary, retrospective or copied from\nanother publication;\n- whether RCAHMW ever examined the alleged objects itself;\n- whether any accession, transfer or correspondence record connected the\naccount with Amgueddfa Cymru; and\n- whether the attribution that material was held by the National Museum of\nWales appears elsewhere in the Commission's records.\n\nIf the Commission has no such provenance information, please say so. (For\ncompleteness, Amgueddfa Cymru has separately stated that it holds no record\nof such an acquisition; I raise the point only to establish the documentary\ntrail within the Commission's own holdings.)\n\n10. The demolition sequence\n\nYour confirmation that Suggett visited after demolition makes the following\nquestion particularly important.\n\nPlease confirm whether the Commission holds any record of notification of\nthe proposed demolition, notification during the demolition, a request for\n(or consideration of, or decision not to undertake) emergency recording, a\nsite visit before, during or immediately after demolition, or contact with\nCadw, GGAT, the relevant local authority, BP Properties or its agents, or\nMrs Buckler or any other family member.\n\nI am aware that the Commission may not have been under a statutory duty to\nreceive notice merely because the building was unlisted. I am not assuming\notherwise. The question is simply whether any such recorded information\nexists. The Commission's own addition to the plan on 12 December 1988 is\nthe only institutional recording event so far identified in the immediate\npost-demolition period; any residual notes or correspondence from that\nvisit would therefore be of particular value.\n\n11. Search statement\n\nBecause the principal issue is now the distinction between “not in the\nregistered files” and “not held anywhere by the Commission”, I would be\ngrateful for a short factual search statement identifying:\n\n- which physical record series were searched;\n- which electronic/catalogue systems were searched;\n- the principal names, site identifiers or reference numbers used;\n- whether relevant archive staff or custodians were consulted; and\n- whether any potentially relevant material was excluded because it was\nuncatalogued, separately indexed, deposited or otherwise outside the\nregistered-file series.\n\nA concise factual description is sufficient; I am not asking for an\nelaborate report.\n\n12. Statutory status\n\nFinally, I do not want the distinction between the Commission's public\nenquiry/research service and its statutory information-rights function to\nbecome blurred.\n\nMy requests of 8, 15, 17 and 20 September 2026 remain as made. I am content\nfor the Commission to answer them together where that is administratively\neasier, but I am not withdrawing them or converting them into paid research\nenquiries.\n\nPlease therefore confirm:\n\n1. which request or requests your present email is intended to answer;\n2. whether each outstanding request remains open;\n3. whether your present email is intended to constitute a formal FOIA/EIR\nresponse;\n4. where you say information is not held, the scope of the search\nsupporting that conclusion;\n5. where information is being withheld rather than not held, the relevant\nstatutory basis; and\n6. the applicable internal-review procedure and the name/contact details of\nthe officer responsible for information rights.\n\nI appreciate the distinction you have drawn between material the Commission\ncurrently holds and material which may once have existed. That distinction\nis precisely why I am trying to establish the documentary chain carefully\nrather than draw conclusions from gaps in the archive.\n\nI am deliberately approaching this as a records-reconstruction exercise. I\nam not asking the Commission to reach a conclusion about ownership, the\nlegality of the demolition, or the conduct of any person or institution.\n\nMy aim is to establish what records were created, what survives, what\nentered or left the Commission's custody, what was transferred or disposed\nof, what cannot now be located, and what searches have actually been\nundertaken.\n\nThank you again for your assistance. I would be grateful if the outstanding\nSeptember requests could remain open while these points of clarification\nare addressed.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a0ee493c00fb442","subject":"Great House Farm / suspected historic fraud","name":"Great House Farm / suspected historic fraud","date":"2026-09-29T17:49:12Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0ee493c00fb442.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0ee493c00fb442-great-house-farm-suspected-historic-fraud","scopeTopics":["cps"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["cps"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0ee493c00fb442","direction":"received","from":"Victim Liaison Cymru-Wales","institutions":[{"id":"cps","name":"Crown Prosecution Service"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0ee493c00fb442.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Mr Buckler\n\nThank you for your email dated 28 September 2026.\n\nUnfortunately, I have been unable to locate a case file based on the information provided.

I am not asking the Wales Office to\n> determine title, to reopen BP Properties Ltd v Buckler, or to adopt\n> any party's case on the land. I am asking whether the letter of 22\n> September 2026 answered the request that was made, and whether the\n> search described in it was adequate.\n>\n> A. What is already on this file\n>\n> 1. 29 August 2026 — I asked the Wales Office for recorded information\n> about Great House Farm. Your letter of 22 September quotes the request\n> as five points. I adopt that quotation. The points were:\n>\n> - records of any communication or outreach between Cadw, or its\n> predecessor functions, and the Office of the Secretary of State for\n> Wales / Welsh Office concerning Great House Farm during July–December\n> 1988;\n> - records of any recommendation, briefing, submission, notification or\n> formal appeal concerning the protection or listing of Great House Farm\n> submitted to the Secretary of State;\n> - records of any communications with the occupiers and owners of the\n> property before the refusal decision of 5 December 1988;\n> - any surviving destruction, disposal, transfer or accession\n> documentation relating to the Great House Farm 1988 assessment file,\n> including certificates, dockets, lists, database entries, retention\n> schedules, disposal authorities or other contemporaneous records held\n> by the Welsh Office, its predecessors, Cadw, or any repository to\n> which relevant records were transferred;\n> - information regarding a decision made in relation to Great House\n> Farm in 1988, including the evidence that was used to support that\n> decision.\n>\n> 2. 8 September 2026 — acknowledgement from NIO FOI ([email redacted]),\n> recording the request date as 29/08/26. It named no officer and\n> described no search.\n>\n> 3. 22 September 2026 — covering email from the same NIO FOI mailbox,\n> attaching “26FOI 103 - Buckler - Response.pdf”. The covering email\n> contained no substance. The letter is signed Freedom of Information\n> Team, Wales Office, and directs any review to\n> [email redacted].\n>\n> This review is within the two calendar months stated in that letter.\n> The deadline you gave is 22 November 2026.\n>\n> B. What the letter actually says, and what it does not\n>\n> The operative paragraph is this:\n>\n> “We have carried out a search of our digital records and have\n> determined that the Wales Office does not hold the information\n> requested. Any paper files previously held by the former Welsh Office\n> relating to this matter would have been transferred to the National\n> Assembly for Wales in 1999, and subsequently to the Welsh Government\n> in 2007.”\n>\n> That paragraph does not answer the request. The gaps are these.\n>\n> 1. Digital records only. The letter says a search of digital records.\n> It does not say that paper, microfilm, card indexes, transfer lists,\n> accession registers, or destruction schedules were searched. A 1988\n> Welsh Office file is a paper file. A search confined to current\n> digital holdings cannot find it, and cannot find the transfer or\n> destruction docket that the fourth bullet asked for.\n>\n> 2. “Would have been transferred” is not a search result. It is an\n> assumption about devolution. It is not a statement that a transfer\n> list was consulted, that a file for this house appears on that list,\n> or that the file was received in Cardiff. “Would have been” covers\n> three different outcomes: transferred, destroyed, or still here under\n> another description. The letter does not distinguish them.\n>\n> 3. The fourth bullet asked for the transfer, disposal and accession\n> records themselves. Those records, if they exist, are Wales Office\n> records of what left the building. They are not the assessment file.\n> Pointing me to the Welsh Government does not answer a request for the\n> docket, the list, the database entry or the disposal authority. Those\n> may still be held here even if the file went to Cardiff. The letter\n> does not say they were searched for.\n>\n> 4. The five bullets are not answered one by one. There is no finding\n> on communications with Cadw; no finding on any briefing or appeal to\n> the Secretary of State; no finding on communications with occupiers\n> and owners before 5 December 1988; no finding on the evidence said to\n> have supported a 1988 decision. A single sentence that digital records\n> do not hold “the information requested” does not show that each limb\n> was searched.\n>\n> 5. The letter uses “the refusal decision of 5 December 1988” only\n> because I used it. It does not say whether that decision is\n> recognised, whether a file for it was identified, or whether the\n> decision is one of the papers “which would have been transferred”.\n> Silence on a dated decision is not a not-held finding.\n>\n> 6. “You may therefore wish” is not section 16 advice. Section 16\n> requires advice and assistance so far as reasonable. A reasonable\n> step, where the department asserts a transfer, is to give the\n> receiving body's file reference, the date of transfer, and the series.\n> None is given. If the intention was section 21 (information reasonably\n> accessible elsewhere), that exemption is not named, and the conditions\n> are not addressed. A suggestion that I write to\n> [email redacted] is not a section 21 notice.\n>\n> 7. “Does not hold” is stated as a conclusion. The search described\n> cannot support it. A not-held finding under section 1 requires a\n> search capable of finding the information. A search of digital\n> records, plus an assumption about 1999, is not that search.\n>\n> 8. The request was answered from a Northern Ireland Office mailbox.\n> The letter is in the name of the Wales Office. The review must be of\n> the Wales Office search. Please confirm it will not be taken by the\n> person who signed the 22 September letter.\n>\n> C. What the reviewing officer is asked to determine\n>\n> 1. What was searched, by name: digital systems, paper series, transfer\n> lists, accession registers, destruction schedules, Gwydyr House\n> holdings, and any index of files passed to the National Assembly in\n> 1999 or to the Welsh Government in 2007. If a location was not\n> searched, say so.\n>\n> 2. For each of the five bullets, a separate finding: held, not held\n> after the searches at (1), transferred (with date, recipient and\n> reference), or destroyed (with date and disposal authority).\n>\n> 3. Whether any transfer, disposal or accession record relating to a\n> Great House Farm 1988 assessment file is held by this department, as\n> distinct from the assessment file itself.\n>\n> 4. Whether any record of a decision on or about 5 December 1988, or of\n> communications with the occupiers or owners before that date, was\n> identified even as an index entry.\n>\n> 5. If information is held and is not to be disclosed, a section 17\n> notice naming the exemption. Do not replace that notice with a\n> referral.\n>\n> 6. If the review maintains that the file went to Cardiff, the transfer\n> reference. Without it, the referral is an assertion.\n>\n> D. Scope, so the review is not narrowed again\n>\n> The window is July–December 1988. Possession of Great House Farm / Tŷ\n> Mawr, Llandough, adjoining St Dochdwy's, was taken on 29 November\n> 1988. Demolition of the farmhouse began on 6 December 1988. The\n> refusal date in the request is 5 December 1988. Those dates fix the\n> search. They do not ask you to decide the land.\n>\n> I have made a parallel request to the Welsh Government, following the\n> referral. That does not discharge 26FOI 103. A file can have been\n> transferred and the transfer docket can still be here. Both questions\n> were asked. Only one was gestured at.\n>\n> E. Why these records are in scope, without asking you to decide title\n>\n> The public index is https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/\n>\n> The investigation distinguishes Parcel A (farmhouse, garden, buildings\n> and yard — the family's maintained freehold interest out of the Bute\n> estate) from Parcel B (eastern fields). Later papers use “whole farm”.\n> BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2 decided possession,\n> limitation and the October 1974 letters. It did not decide the\n> documentary root of Parcel A. Whether the Secretary of State or Cadw\n> looked at this house in the week it was refused and pulled down is a\n> records question. It is not a request that you adopt the family's\n> case.\n>\n> F. Preservation\n>\n> Please preserve any record that may fall within 26FOI 103 while this\n> review is open, including transfer lists, destruction schedules and\n> anything due for routine disposal. Do not transfer or destroy in-scope\n> material without a written receipt that can be disclosed on the\n> review.\n>\n> G. Reservation\n>\n> This letter does not waive any position on title, registration,\n> concealment, limitation, or any later reopening. It is an internal\n> review under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. It is not a claim\n> form and is not service of proceedings.\n>\n> Please acknowledge receipt, give the review reference, and state the\n> date by which the review will be completed. ICO guidance is that an\n> internal review should normally be completed within 20 working days.\n>\n> Yours faithfully,\n>\n> Sion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n> Royal Signals\n> [email redacted]\n>"},{"id":"gm-1a0edcd27db639d9","subject":"Welsh Water - Mail reference 93047764/01","name":"Welsh Water - Mail reference 93047764/01","date":"2026-09-29T15:33:57Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0edcd27db639d9.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0edcd27db639d9-welsh-water-mail-reference-93047764-01","scopeTopics":["dwrcymru"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["dwrcymru"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0edcd27db639d9","direction":"received","from":"CustomerCareTeam","institutions":[{"id":"dwrcymru","name":"Dwr Cymru Welsh Water"}],"refs":["93047764/01"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0edcd27db639d9.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Mail reference: 93047764/01\n\nYour email of: 17th September 2026\n\n\nHello Mr Buckler,\n\nThank you for your further email.\n\nI have reviewed the points you have raised and can confirm that Welsh Water's position remains unchanged.\n\nAs explained in our previous correspondence, we have undertaken searches using the information available and have been unable to identify any records relating to either yourself or Great House Farm (Ty Mawr).

The investigation distinguishes the farmhouse parcel from the eastern\nfields. The 1987 Court of Appeal decided possession, limitation and the\nOctober 1974 letters.

Gyda llaw, mae rhan fwyaf o’r cofnod hon wedi’i thanysgrifennu fel disgrifiad y safle gan Heneb, GGAT02038s (https://archwilio.org.uk/her/chi3/report/page.php?watprn=GGAT02038s&dbname=ggat&tbname=core&sessid=CHI4nj4fn3q&queryid=Q383581001790598378). Yr wyf yn gynnwys eu disgrifiad isod, wedi’i gwirio er mwyn adlewyrchu y testun gwreiddiol:\n‘Great House Farmhouse and barn formed an attractive group, built of local lias limestone, and occupied an historic site next to the parish church. Finds of medieval ironwork and pottery have been reported from the site. Great House was the chief freehold farm of the parish and was occupied by the Vaughan's, a minor gentry family, from the mid C16 until the latter part of the C18. Several memorial inscriptions relating to the family are preserved in the church and churchyard. In the early C19 the freehold was acquired by the Bute Estate and the manorial courts for Llandough and Leckwith were held in Great House.\n\n‘Externally both farmhouse and barn appeared to be of nineteenth-century date. Internally, however, surviving vernacular detail- a blocked stone fireplace stair and agee-stopped beams- suggested a seventeenth-century date for the house. The ground floor of the house was surveyed in unusual circumstances in 1974 by H.J.T. Much detail was then concealed and it was not possible to examine the first floor and roof trusses. The house remained partially recorded because of problems of access created by an ownership dispute. The house and farm buildings were suddenly and completely demolished by B.P. Properties Ltd. on 6th December 1988 amid considerable local controversy.\n\n‘The plan of Great House was not published in the Inventory of Farmhouses & Cottages because of the incompleteness of the available information but it was classified as a sub-medieval house of direct-entry type (site no. 425). However, certain features suggested that the core of the house may have been medieval. The clearly-defined cross-passage end-chimney plan with masonry partitions and external wall batter (on the unreconstructed N side) had clear affinities with Brynwell, a medieval farmhouse in the neighbouring parish of Leckwith, Brynwell was built as a direct-entry, end-chimney, storeyed pre-Reformation house (Inventory, pp.187, 192). Brynwell, like Great House, was modernised in the C19th by the Bute Estate but the medieval date of the house is clearly shown by a small first-floor cusped-head window and the remodelled roof trusses. Unfortunately it was not possible to examine the fabric of Great House before the demolition of the house. Examination of the rubble brought to light no new features except an ogee-stopped beam with torus, a form of decoration that is not particularly common in Glamorgan (Inventory, Map 50).’\n\nEr hynny, y mae dau gofnod sydd yn cyfeirio at ddarganfod yr arwisg, sef Rhif Archif 6048942 (https://coflein.gov.uk/en/archives/6048942), le y nodir ‘At one time it was reputed to be the stable of a Castle, which could be verified by the finding of the remains of a soldier in armour, his horse, lance and small shield under the dining room floor’, a Rhif Archif 6048944 (https://coflein.gov.uk/en/archives/6048944), sef erthygl o’r Daily Telegraph, 16 Ebrill 1974, le y nodir ‘Its history has never been fully chronicled but a theory that it was originally a coaching house near a Castle was supported by the discovery benieth the dining room floor in about 1870 of the remains of a soldier in armour, his horse, a lance and shield’. Gyda llaw, canys sefydlwyd y CBHC ac Amgueddfa Cymru yn yr ugeinfed ganrif gynnar a darganfuwyd yr arwisg yn y bedwaredd ganrif ar bymtheg, mae’n annhebyg y byddai’r Comisiwn Brenhinol yn rhan o rodiad yr arfwisg i’r Amgueddfa.\n\nGellir archebu sganiau'r tri chofnod hyn gan ddefnyddio’r ffurflen archebu a atodir. Wrth i ni hepgor ffioedd ar gyfer archebion bychain (llai na pum sgan cyfraniad ymchwil),  y mae’n debygol byddai darparir yr archeb hon am ddim.\n\nYnglŷn â’ch ymholiad ynglŷn â’r cofnodion Rhifau Archif 6364275 (https://coflein.gov.uk/en/archives/6364275)  a 6364276 (https://coflein.gov.uk/en/archives/6364276), yr wyf wedi ymgynghori’r ddau. Gallaf gadarnhau y mae’r ddau yn berthnasol i’r ddau safle y adnabyddir yn ein catalog archif, sef Tŷ Mawr, Tresimwn, a 33 Whitecross Street, Fynwy, ac nid Tŷ Mawr, Llandochau Fach.\n\nYnglŷn â’ch ymholiadau o 11 Mehefin, fel y dwedir uchod, nid oes unrhyw lythyrau na chofnodion ynglŷn â’r safle hon, sef Fferm Tŷ Mawr, Llandochau Fach, yn ein ffeiliau cofrestredig, sef yr unig gofnodion ymgyrchol rydem eu cadw yn y tymor hir. Nid ydy unrhyw gofnodion wedi dod yn amlwg yn ystod y cyfnod ers hynny. Er hynny, y mae’n amlwg bod aelod o’n tîm arolwg, sef Richard Suggett, wedi ymweld â’r safle yn fyr ar ôl ei dymchwel yn fis Rhagfyr 1988 (sef cynnwys y cofnod Rhif Archif 6048945), ond nid chofnodir rheswm yr ymweliad hwn.\n\nYnglŷn â’ch ymholiadau bellach o 20 Medi, fel y dwedir uchod, nid oes unrhyw lythyrau na chofnodion ynglŷn â’r safle hon, sef Fferm Tŷ Mawr, Llandochau Fach, yn ein ffeiliau cofrestredig, sef yr unig gofnodion ymgyrchol rydem eu cadw yn y tymor hir. Canys hynny, nid oes gennem lythyrau na chofnodion ynglŷn â’r llythyrau rhwng ‘C.N. Johns a Mrs Buckler, Great House Farm’, fel y dwedais yn fy e-bost o 10 Mehefin, na unrhyw amgylchiadau eraill ynglŷn â dymchwel y safle.\n\nY mae’r rhifau cofnodion a nodir yn eich e-bost o 20 Medi, sef NA/GL/88/49 a NA/GL/89/208 yn edrych yn debyg at rifau cofnodion derbyniadau. NA/GL/88/49 yw’r rhifyn derbyniad ar gyfer y disgrifiad gan Richard Suggett, sef Rhif Archif 6048945, fel uchod. Yr unig gofnod a dderbynid fel rhan o NA/GL/89/208, ar ôl ein cofnodion, oedd Rhif Archif 6048941 (https://coflein.gov.uk/en/archives/6048941). Gyda llaw, mae’r cofnod hon wedi cael ei gynnwys yn yr adroddiad GGAT ‘Land at Great House Farm, Llandough. An Archaeological Assessment’ (1990), sef Rhif Archif 6524751 (https://coflein.gov.uk/en/archives/6524751).

On the Welsh Language Standards point raised in your signature — I am Welsh and I would be glad to receive correspondence in Welsh, but please use whichever language is quicker for you. I do not want language to delay anything, and I will not treat a Welsh reply as needing translation.\n>\n> This is a request under section 1 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and, so far as the records concern the historic environment, under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004.\n>\n> **First, a point of housekeeping. Nothing in this email amends, clarifies, narrows or withdraws my requests of 8, 15 or 17 September.** Those stand exactly as made and their statutory periods run from their own dates. This is an additional request, and I would not want it to be treated as restarting any clock. On my reckoning:\n>\n> - **8 September 2026** — FOI/EIR on R. F. Suggett's December 1988 unpublished records, H. J. Thomas's 1974 survey, the source of the \"held by the National Museum of Wales\" attribution, and copy correspondence with Amgueddfa Cymru, GGAT, Cadw and the Vale. Acknowledged by you the same day, twenty working days. **Due Tuesday 6 October 2026.** No reference number issued; nothing yet supplied.\n> - **15 September 2026** — catalogue check on Emergency Recording case **RCS2/1/1777**, filed under Great House (Ty Mawr), Bonvilston, where the material described is the pattern one would expect for the Llandough demolition. **Due Tuesday 13 October 2026.**\n> - **17 September 2026** — whether the Commission was notified, consulted or asked to record the farmhouse before its demolition on 6 December 1988. **Due Thursday 15 October 2026.**\n>\n> The second and third received only the automated enquiry acknowledgement, which cites fifteen working days and notes that the priority search service is suspended. I understand the staffing position and I am not complaining about it. But both emails ask for recorded information, and a request for recorded information is a request under section 1 whether or not it is labelled as one. **Please confirm that all three are logged as FOIA / EIR requests and let me have the reference numbers.** If they are currently sitting in the research-enquiry queue rather than the information-rights queue, that is easily fixed now and much harder to fix later.\n>\n> **On the number of requests.** I am conscious that this is my fifth email in twelve days. It is not an attempt to burden the Commission. Each request arose from a document I only found after sending the last one — the GGAT 1990 assessment led me to Suggett, Suggett's own note led me to the lost correspondence, and a Coflein search led me to RCS2/1/1777. I am content for all of them to be answered together in a single response if that is more efficient for you, and if the whole exceeds the appropriate limit under section 12 I will happily tell you which items to do first rather than have anything refused outright. Please just ask.\n>\n> **The site.** Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough (Llandochau) juxta Penarth, Vale of Glamorgan — the community of St Dochdwy's Church and Llandough Hospital. **Not** Llandough near Cowbridge, and **not** Ty Mawr, Bonvilston (Cadw 13603), which is a different and still-standing house. NPRN 20182. ST 1681 7331. HER GGAT02038s. Now Church View Close. Outbuildings demolished 30 November 1988; farmhouse 6 December 1988.\n>\n> Holdings I am aware of include file references **NA/GL/88/49** and **NA/GL/89/208**, NMR site file material catalogued on Coflein (a plan with additions dated 12 December 1988, a descriptive account, a press cutting), Inventory working papers for Glamorgan Inventory site 425, and the disputed ERC bundle RCS2/1/1777.\n>\n> **Why this matters to me.** The farm was my family's. The immediate reason for this request is a line in your own records: R. F. Suggett's December 1988 assessment notes that *\"Correspondence between C. N. Johns and Mrs Buckler, Great House Farm, has been lost from the file since 1986/87\"*, and that *\"There is apparently no photographic record of the site.\"* Mrs Buckler was my relative. I want the correspondence if it survives, the record of how it came to be lost if it does not, and the rest of the file either way. I am not asking the Commission for a view on title or on the legality of the demolition, and I would not expect one.\n>\n> **Information requested**\n>\n> Please supply copies, so far as held:\n>\n> 1. A full contents list or file schedule for **NA/GL/88/49** and **NA/GL/89/208**, itemising every document on each file, whether or not the documents themselves are disclosed.\n> 2. Copies of all documents on those two files.\n> 3. **The file cover, front sheet or wrapper of each file**, and any enclosure list, loans register, issue slip, reader-request record or file-tracking entry attached to or kept for them.\n> 4. Every record concerning the **C. N. Johns / Mrs Buckler correspondence** recorded as lost since 1986/87: any surviving copy, draft, extract, summary, index entry or catalogue stub; any contemporaneous or later note of its loss; any record of a search for it; any record of who consulted, borrowed or handled the file between 1 January 1985 and 31 December 1988; and any internal or external correspondence about its absence. If no such record exists, please say so expressly rather than leaving it unaddressed.\n> 5. The Commission's **retention and disposal schedule** applicable to site files and correspondence files in the 1980s and today, and confirmation whether any records relating to this site have been destroyed under it, and if so when and under what authority.\n> 6. Whether the files listed above have been **reviewed for transfer to, or retention from, The National Archives or the Glamorgan Archives**, and the outcome of any such review.\n> 7. All **Inventory working papers, drafts, card-index entries and record cards** for the site, including those for Glamorgan Inventory site 425.\n> 8. All **photographs** of the site in any format — prints, negatives, transparencies, digital images, and any oblique or vertical aerial coverage of Llandough showing the farm at any date — whether or not catalogued, with their catalogue entries. Given Suggett's 1988 note that there is apparently no photographic record, **please state expressly whether the Commission holds none**, and whether any images sit within RCS2/1/1777 or in uncatalogued Emergency Recording material.\n> 9. Confirmation, from the location plan, map copies and photographs inside **RCS2/1/1777**, whether that bundle is Bonvilston or Llandough. If Llandough, please re-link it to NPRN 20182 and supply a contents list and copies. Please also check adjacent case **RCS2/1/1776**. *(This is my request of 15 September, restated here for completeness only — it stands on its own date.)*\n> 10. Any record of a site visit, watching brief, recording exercise or emergency recording carried out or considered before, during or after the demolition; any notification of the proposed demolition, from whom and on what date; and any decision **not** to record the building together with the reasons recorded for it. The building was not listed — Cadw inspected on 29 July 1988 and did not list it — so I make no assumption that the Commission was entitled to notice. What I would like to know is what the Commission's own criteria for initiating Emergency Recording were at the time, and whether this site was considered against them. Contemporary reports of 3 December 1988 stated that Cadw was considering emergency listing and that discussion with the Commission was being arranged. The house came down three days later.\n> 11. The **1974 survey by H. J. Thomas**, his site notes of 26 April 1974 and 12 December 1988, and any measured drawings, sketches, plans or elevations, published or unpublished.\n> 12. **R. F. Suggett's December 1988 records in full** — every page, card, continuation sheet, annotation and enclosure — not only the passages concerning the c.1880 find.\n> 13. Any record of the source of the statement that the c.1880 ironwork \"is held by the National Museum of Wales\", and any later file that confirms, corrects or withdraws that attribution.\n> 14. All correspondence between the Commission and any of the following concerning this site, 1970–1995: Cadw or the Welsh Office; the Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust; Vale of Glamorgan Borough Council; BP Properties Limited or its agents, including Debenham Tewson & Chinnocks; Persimmon Homes (Wales) Limited; Ideal Homes Wales Limited; Amgueddfa Cymru; any Member of Parliament; and any member of my family.\n> 15. Any accession records for material deposited with the Commission by GGAT, Cadw, Cotswold Archaeology or any other body relating to this site.\n>\n> **Practicalities.** Please reply by email to this address. I cannot attend in person and I am not seeking anything that attracts a charge. Scans are fine. Where an item is already on Coflein, a stable reference and link is enough **provided** you confirm the online record is complete. If any item is held elsewhere — The National Archives, Glamorgan Archives, Cadw, Heneb or Amgueddfa Cymru — please name the body and reference so I can apply there directly, which I will.\n>\n> Finally, so that it is on record from the outset rather than raised later: please let me have the name and contact details of the officer responsible for information rights at the Commission, and confirmation of the internal review procedure, so that I know where to direct any review request if one becomes necessary.\n>\n> With thanks for your patience with a long list.\n>\n> Yn gywir / Yours faithfully,\n>\n> Sion Buckler\n> [email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n\n--\n\n------------------------------------------------------------\nAttachments (2)\n- LES08 Ffurflen Archebu 2023.docx (application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document, 135 KB): https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/pdf/foi/2026-09-29_rcahmw_rc26-0375_les08-order-form-2023.docx\n- LES16 Rhestr Brisiau 2026.pdf (application/pdf, 303 KB): https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/pdf/foi/2026-09-29_rcahmw_rc26-0375_les16-price-list-2026.pdf"},{"id":"gm-1a0ed4541d097398","subject":"Automatic reply: Great House Farm, Llandough","name":"Automatic reply: Great House Farm, Llandough","date":"2026-09-29T13:05:31Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0ed4541d097398.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0e110bed09b687-automatic-reply-great-house-farm-llandough","scopeTopics":["hmlr"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["hmlr"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0e110bed09b687","direction":"received","from":"_Notice Response","institutions":[{"id":"hmlr","name":"HM Land Registry"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0ed4541d097398.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Thank you for your recent communication.　\n\nYour email and any attachments have been passed to an HM Land Registry caseworker for consideration.\n\nIf you would like to discuss this correspondence or require it in an alternate format, please contact us at [email redacted]\n\n\n\n\nHM Land Registry’s purpose is to protect your land ownership and provide services and data that underpin an efficient and informed property market.

Please do not treat this as a joint reply. Answer only for your own holdings.\n\nSirs/Madam,\n\nThis is a preservation notice. It is not a claim form and not service of proceedings. It does not replace any FOI, review or subject access request already with you.\n\nLand: Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough-juxta-Penarth, adjoining St Dochdwy's. Titles WA231076, WA240304 (closed), WA513690, WA735527, and any related title. Planning refs 89/01396/OUT and 92/00671/RES.\n\nPlease preserve, and do not destroy, transfer out of your custody without a written receipt, or dispose of, any file, plan, photograph, tape or electronic record in your possession, custody or control relating to:\n\n1. The 1877 split, the 1916 and 1939 tenancies, and the 1938 Bute to Western Ground Rents conveyance.\n2. The 1955 and 1962 possession orders, the 1974 proceedings, and BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2.\n3. First registration: WA231076 application 30 November 1982; WA240304 application 23 February 1983; later amalgamation.\n4. The 1988 possession (29 November) and demolition (begun 6 December), including listing, planning, police and any liaison papers.\n5. Mary Doreen Williams (died 26 March 1983) and William Buckler, so far as your file concerns this land.\n\nAlso preserve, if you hold them, the following planning and land-charge classes. Absence from a 2026 file disclosure is not proof they never existed:\n\n6. Any section 52 Town and Country Planning Act 1971 agreement, later section 106 instrument, deed, undertaking or other agreement regulating the development or use of this land, and any corresponding local-land-charge entry.\n7. The historic planning-register entries required by the Town and Country Planning General Development Order 1988 for 89/01396/OUT and 92/00671/RES (applications, reserved matters, plans and drawings, and decision information).\n8. The officer's report annexes to 89/01396/OUT, including Appendix B (further GGAT comments after discussions with the Trust), and Appendices C–E.\n9. The condition chain on 89/01396/OUT: conditions 16–18; the Council's October 1990 confirmation of condition 17; GGAT's July 1992 archaeological warning; the September 1992 reserved-matters approval; and the 1993–94 papers on whether condition 18 had been discharged.\n10. Any preliminary environmental-assessment / screening determination for the outline application (site described as about 3.4 acres / 1.38 ha).\n11. Any record of the statutory consultation route used because the land was, or was treated as, a site of archaeological interest / SMR entry under the 1988 Order.\n12. The complete 92/00671/RES file, and any sale, option, conditional-contract or transfer paper on the planning files covering BP Properties to Ideal Homes Wales, including the recorded transfer of\n3 December 1993.\n13. The application-receipt record for 89/01396/OUT (form dated October 1989; reconstructed Council receipt 8 November 1989).\n\nPlease stop routine deletion, including archived mailboxes, for anything in that scope.\n\nThe public evidence index is https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/\n. The investigation distinguishes the farmhouse parcel from the eastern fields. The 1987 Court of Appeal decided possession, limitation and the October 1974 letters. It did not decide the documentary root of the farmhouse parcel. These records go to that question. This notice is not a finding against any of you.\n\nPlease acknowledge, name the officer responsible for the hold, and say what you hold in scope. If you hold nothing, say what you searched.\n\nNothing in this letter abandons any claim concerning title, registration, concealment, limitation, reopening or alteration of the register.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals\n[email redacted]"},{"id":"gm-1a0ecc942f0fb115","subject":"Your complaint about HM Land Registry - reference ICR/090/26","name":"Your complaint about HM Land Registry - reference ICR/090/26","date":"2026-09-29T10:50:05Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0ecc942f0fb115.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0ecc942f0fb115-your-complaint-about-hm-land-registry-reference-icr-090-26","scopeTopics":["hmlr-icr"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["hmlr-icr"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0ecc942f0fb115","direction":"received","from":"ICR Office Inbox","institutions":[{"id":"hmlr-icr","name":"HM Land Registry (Independent Complaints Reviewer)"}],"refs":["ICR/090/26"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0ecc942f0fb115.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Mr Buckler\n\nI am writing to acknowledge receipt of the following further emails from you:\n\n1.)

It is not a joint request, and it does not ask any recipient to speak for, investigate on behalf of, or answer in place of any other person or organisation. Each recipient is asked to respond only in respect of records within that recipient's own possession, custody or control, including records inherited from a predecessor organisation or retained on its behalf.\n\n1. Nature and purpose of this notice\n\nThis is a formal preservation notice concerning documentary material relating to Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough-juxta-Penarth, adjoining St Dochdwy's, and the subsequent development of the site, including the area now associated with Church View Close.\n\nIt is not a claim form, is not service of proceedings, and is not intended to constitute or replace any FOI request, internal review, complaint, subject-access request or other statutory process already made to any recipient.\n\nThe purpose of this notice is to require the preservation of potentially relevant material while the documentary history, title chain, registration history, planning history, possession proceedings, demolition and subsequent development are being reconstructed.\n\nA separate first-stage preservation notice has been issued or is being issued to Cadw / Welsh Government FOI, HM Land Registry Wales Office and DPO, Heneb / GGAT HER, RCAHMW, Vale of Glamorgan FOI Unit and DPO, Glamorgan Archives, South Wales Police FOI, The National Archives, the Wales Office FOI team, and the National Library of Wales. Persimmon Homes (Wales) Ltd has received a separate preservation letter.\n\nYou are receiving this notice separately because the published documentary record places you, or a predecessor whose records may remain in your custody or control, within the documentary, legal, professional, administrative or development chain concerning this land.\n\n2. Land and documentary scope\n\nPlease preserve, and do not destroy, alter, overwrite, discard, transfer out of custody without a recorded handover, or otherwise dispose of, any record within your possession, custody or control relating to the land or matters identified below.\n\nThe scope includes, without limitation, originals, copies, working papers, drafts, annotations, plans, photographs, negatives, films, tapes, maps, registers, indexes, correspondence, emails and attachments, electronic files, archived mailboxes, databases, metadata, internal notes, meeting records, instructions, client or matter files, survey material and other associated records.\n\nThe material requested includes:\n\n1. Historical ownership, occupation and conveyancing\n\nThe 1877 split; the 1916 and 1939 tenancies; the 1938 Bute to Western Ground Rents conveyance; the 1969 Western Ground Rents to BP Pension Trust conveyance; and any plans, schedules, abstracts, searches, correspondence or other documents relied upon in relation to those transactions.\n\n2. Possession proceedings and subsequent litigation\n\nThe 1955 High Court and 1962 Cardiff County Court possession orders; the 1974 proceedings; BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2; House of Lords leave papers, including YHL/PO/JO/10/11/2536; and Buckler v United Kingdom (1989), including associated correspondence, instructions, evidence, plans and working papers.\n\n3. Land registration\n\nThe first registration of WA231076, including the application dated 30 November 1982; the first registration of WA240304, including the application dated 23 February 1983; subsequent amalgamation, transfer or closure; and every plan, conveyance, abstract, search, application, correspondence trail or professional file relied upon in connection with those registrations or changes.\n\n4. 1988 possession and demolition\n\nThe taking of possession on or about 29 November 1988 and the demolition commenced on or about 6 December 1988, including any planning, listed-building, heritage, police, enforcement, media, contractor, survey, photographic or inter-agency liaison material.\n\n5. Planning and subsequent development, 1989–1996\n\nPlanning application 89/01396/OUT; reserved matters application 92/00671/RES; conditions 16–18; GGAT / Cotswold Archaeology material; records concerning any section 52, section 106, planning obligation, local land charge or equivalent instrument; and the transfer from BP to Ideal Homes dated 3 December 1993, together with all associated plans, correspondence, approvals, agreements, searches and completion material.\n\n6. Family records\n\nRecords concerning Mary Doreen Williams (died 1983) and William Buckler, insofar as those records relate to Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, the land described above, its occupation, ownership, possession, disposal, registration, development or demolition.\n\n3. Predecessor and inherited files\n\nWhere you hold, or may hold, a file originating with a predecessor, successor, merged practice, affiliated practice, client or other entity, that material is also within scope.\n\nThis includes, without limitation, records originating from:\n\nLoosemores of Cardiff; Robbins Olivey & Blake Lapthorn / Blake Morgan; Linklaters & Paines; Debenham Tewson / DTZ / Cushman & Wakefield; Wyn Thomas + Partners; Ideal Homes Wales; BP Properties; BP Pension Trust; Cotswold Archaeological Trust; Cardiff Bay Development Corporation; and South Glamorgan County Council.\n\nThe reference to a predecessor file does not assert that you necessarily hold such a file. It identifies material for which a reasonable custody or succession inquiry should be made where applicable.\n\n4. Preservation steps\n\nPlease take reasonable steps to prevent the routine destruction, deletion, alteration or overwriting of potentially relevant material, including material held in archived mailboxes, legacy systems, off-site storage, document-management systems, backup repositories and other electronic or physical stores.\n\nWhere relevant material has been transferred to another repository, archive, successor organisation or third party, please preserve the information necessary to identify the transfer and its current location, including any accession, file, box, reference or custody details.\n\nNothing in this notice requires the creation of records that do not exist. The request concerns the preservation of records already held or controlled by you.\n\n5. Purpose and legal position\n\nThis notice is not a finding against any recipient, and I am not asking any recipient to determine title or adjudicate the underlying dispute.\n\nThe 1987 Court of Appeal judgment is relied upon here only for matters actually determined by that judgment, including the issues concerning possession, limitation and the October 1974 letters. This preservation notice does not treat that judgment as having determined the complete documentary root of title to the farmhouse parcel.\n\nThe underlying documentary history, including the relationship between the farmhouse parcel and the agricultural land subsequently dealt with through Western Ground Rents and BP, remains a matter requiring reconstruction from the primary records.\n\nAccordingly, preservation is requested precisely so that the documentary record can be established from the records themselves rather than through assumptions based on later registration, later occupation, later planning treatment or secondary descriptions.\n\n6. Acknowledgement and identification of records\n\nPlease acknowledge receipt of this notice and, in your own capacity, confirm:\n\n(a) the officer, partner, records manager or other person responsible for implementing the preservation hold;\n\n(b) what records within your possession, custody or control you have identified as falling within the scope above; and\n\n(c) where you identify no records within scope, what relevant systems, files, repositories or predecessor records you searched in reaching that conclusion.\n\nA substantive assessment of title is not requested from you. The immediate requirement is preservation and identification of the documentary material you hold.\n\nThe public documentary index and developing evidence record is available at:\n\nhttps://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/ \n\nPlease monitor that site for subsequent identification of documents, references and specific schedules relevant to your organisation's records.\n\nWhere a reliable public email address is unavailable, a postal preservation notice will also be sent. For example, a postal notice will follow to Loosemores, Alliance House, 18–19 High Street, Cardiff [postcode redacted].\n\nNothing in this notice constitutes an abandonment, waiver or limitation of any claim, position or remedy concerning title, registration, concealment, limitation, reopening, rectification or alteration of the register, or any associated matter.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nAny business communication sent by or on behalf of Linklaters LLP or one of its affiliated firms or other entities (together \"Linklaters\") is confidential and may be privileged or otherwise protected.

Therefore, no action will be taken with this enquiry.\n\nOur Contact HM Land Registry page  has comprehensive help pages for most enquiries.\n\nPlease resubmit your enquiry via our online contact form.\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler  \nSent: 27 September 2026 05:12\nTo: Wales.OfficeMail  \nCc: Coventry.OfficeMail  \nSubject: Great House Farm, Llandough\n\nSirs/ Ma'ams,\n\nI need to correct a date I have used in earlier correspondence about Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough, titles WA231076 and WA240304.\n\nI had treated 1983 as the year the two titles were merged. That was wrong. HM Land Registry’s own letter of 23 March 2026 (Lisa Griffiths, ref N610CGV) separates the two acts.\n1982–83 was first registration of two live titles, not a merger.\n30 November 1982: application to first-register WA231076. The Court of Appeal later treated BP Properties Ltd as registered proprietors of “the farm” from November 1982.\n23 February 1983: application to first-register a second title, WA240304.\n26 March 1983: Mary Williams died. On the family’s case, notice of those applications did not reach us until after her death, while the family was in mourning. She had no window in which to object. The family was not in a position to use any window that arrived after that.\nThose two titles remained separate through first instance.\n24 July 1986: Hollis J. Both titles were still live. The judgment language treats Great House Farm as one holding. It had not been one holding on the register. On the family’s case it had not been one holding since the 1877 split: Parcel A (house, buildings, garden/yard and about 10 acres, the Thomas/Williams line) and Parcel B (the eastern fields retained by Bute and later WGR/BP).\n2 February 1987: application to amalgamate the two titles. WA240304 was then closed and registration continued under WA231076. That is the merge. It was made after the 1986 ruling and before the Court of Appeal gave judgment on 31 July 1987.\nSo 1983 is silent first registration of a second title while Mary was still in Parcel A, or had only just died. 1987 is the administrative merger, carried out while the appeal was still open.\nThis was not a dispute about a single land parcel that BP already owned. Mary was on Parcel A, which the family says she owned, with occupation on that house parcel running in the family from at least 1667. BP, and WGR before it from 1949, were the neighbouring interest on Parcel B. From 1949 onwards the family’s case is that those neighbours ran a decades-long series of tenancy offers, “whole farm” wording, possession orders and the 1974 letters to make her occupation of her own parcel look permissive, and to make both parcels look like one estate they had acquired. They never produced a conveyance of Parcel A. What they had was an unfounded claim that her occupancy was permissive.\nPlease treat any earlier letter from me that said the titles merged in 1983 as corrected by this email. The dates that matter are:\n1982/83 — first registration of two titles, without the occupier being heard;\n24 July 1986 — first-instance judgment describing one farm while two titles still stood;\n2 February 1987 — amalgamation, before the appeal ended;\n31 July 1987 — Court of Appeal.\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler\nRefs where relevant: N610CGV; 260919-6726246; titles WA231076 and WA240304.\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\ngreathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com \n\n\n\n\n\nHM Land Registry’s purpose is to protect your land ownership and provide services and data that underpin an efficient and informed property market.

Possession was taken on 29 November 1988. Demolition of the farmhouse began on 6 December 1988. The land is now Church View Close. The current registered proprietor of WA231076 is Persimmon Homes (Wales) Ltd. First-registration applications were made on 30 November 1982 (WA231076) and 23 February 1983 (WA240304, later closed into WA231076).\n\nBP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2 decided possession, limitation and the effect of letters in October 1974. It did not decide whether the documentary root of the farmhouse and garden was ever established. The family's investigation is that the house and garden were a separate parcel from the eastern fields, and that later papers used \"whole farm\" for both. That is a working reconstruction, set out on the site with the documents and the gaps. It is not a judgment.\n\nThis month, on the disclosure side, not as findings: Wales Office answered 26FOI 103 and pointed 1988 listing papers to the Welsh Government. A Vale of Glamorgan internal review requested on 7 July (00210772) has no outcome. HM Land Registry file N610CGV is with the Independent Complaints Reviewer. A replica of the house is being built in the Welsh settlement in Patagonia as a museum, not as restitution.\n\nContemporary reporting described the 1988 scene in the language of a battleground.

Please do not merge them.\n\nI am not asking you to decide the civil claim. I am asking you to apply the recording rules, and to disclose personal data.\n\n1. Subject access, UK GDPR Article 15. Personal data you hold about me, Sion Buckler, arising from the eviction and demolition at Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough, between 29 November and 6 December 1988, and from later correspondence including 719/26 and the request of 20 August 2026 concerning the deaths of William Buckler and Mary Doreen Williams. Say what identification you need before the month starts.\n\n2. Crime recording. Please record, or explain in writing why you will not record, a report of suspected fraud and concealment in the creation and use of title to that land, including first registration of WA231076 (application 30 November 1982) and WA240304 (application 23 February 1983), and the 1987 proceedings. The question is whether a crime record should be opened. It is not a request that you find the civil title.\n\n3. Search note on 719/26. “No records held” for a documented multi-officer operation in November–December 1988 still requires a note of systems searched, years searched, and whether South Wales Constabulary paper has gone to Glamorgan Archives. That note can sit with the internal review. I ask for it here so the crime-recording decision is not made without it.\n\nThe public evidence index is https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/ .

I am asking whether the Council made and recorded the determination at all.\n\n6.

I am not asking you to treat SMR status as automatic proof of a particular duty. I am asking what route was used.\n\n7. Application receipt date\nThe Council's receipt record for 89/01396/OUT. The application form is dated October 1989. The reconstructed planning record gives 8 November 1989 as receipt of the application and plans. Please supply the date-stamped receipt, validation or register entry.\n\n8. 92/00671/RES completeness and applicant standing\n(a) A file list or register for 92/00671/RES showing what the reserved-matters file originally contained.\n(b) Any sale, option, conditional-contract or authority-to-apply paper on the planning files covering the change from BP Properties (1989 outline applicant) to Ideal Homes Wales (appearing on the 1992 reserved-matters trail), including the recorded BP-to-Ideal Homes transfer of 3 December 1993.\nThis is a documentary interest/authority question. It is not an allegation that the 1992 application was invalid.\n\nIf a record is not held, say so for that item. If it was destroyed, transferred or archived, give the date, the schedule, and any surviving catalogue. Search planning, legal, land charges and archived/scanned holdings.\n\nPlease give a new reference and the 20 working-day date. Preserve anything in scope.\n\nThe public evidence index is https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/ . I am not asking the Council to decide title.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals\n[email redacted]"},{"id":"gm-1a0e9f7a1a4fa353","subject":"Subject access request — WA231076 / WA240304 — Great House Farm, Llandough — Williams / Buckler","name":"Subject access request — WA231076 / WA240304 — Great House Farm, Llandough — Williams / Buckler","date":"2026-09-28T21:41:54Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0e9f7a1a4fa353.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0e3f997bc1bf94-subject-access-request-wa231076-wa240304-great-house-farm-llandough-williams-buckler","scopeTopics":["hmlr"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["hmlr"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0e3f997bc1bf94","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"hmlr","name":"HM Land Registry"}],"refs":["N610CGV"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0e9f7a1a4fa353.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Data Protection Officer\nHM Land Registry\n[email redacted]\ncc: [email redacted]; [email redacted]\nRefs already with you: N610CGV; letter of SG Haste, 30 July 2026\n\nSirs/Madam,\n\nSubject access request under UK GDPR Article 15.\nRequester: Sion Buckler.\nTitles: WA231076 and WA240304 (closed).

I am not asking the Wales Office to determine title, to reopen BP Properties Ltd v Buckler, or to adopt any party's case on the land. I am asking whether the letter of 22 September 2026 answered the request that was made, and whether the search described in it was adequate.\n\nA. What is already on this file\n\n1. 29 August 2026 — I asked the Wales Office for recorded information about Great House Farm. Your letter of 22 September quotes the request as five points. I adopt that quotation. The points were:\n\n- records of any communication or outreach between Cadw, or its predecessor functions, and the Office of the Secretary of State for Wales / Welsh Office concerning Great House Farm during July–December 1988;\n- records of any recommendation, briefing, submission, notification or formal appeal concerning the protection or listing of Great House Farm submitted to the Secretary of State;\n- records of any communications with the occupiers and owners of the property before the refusal decision of 5 December 1988;\n- any surviving destruction, disposal, transfer or accession documentation relating to the Great House Farm 1988 assessment file, including certificates, dockets, lists, database entries, retention schedules, disposal authorities or other contemporaneous records held by the Welsh Office, its predecessors, Cadw, or any repository to which relevant records were transferred;\n- information regarding a decision made in relation to Great House Farm in 1988, including the evidence that was used to support that decision.\n\n2. 8 September 2026 — acknowledgement from NIO FOI ([email redacted]), recording the request date as 29/08/26. It named no officer and described no search.\n\n3. 22 September 2026 — covering email from the same NIO FOI mailbox, attaching “26FOI 103 - Buckler - Response.pdf”. The covering email contained no substance. The letter is signed Freedom of Information Team, Wales Office, and directs any review to [email redacted].\n\nThis review is within the two calendar months stated in that letter. The deadline you gave is 22 November 2026.\n\nB. What the letter actually says, and what it does not\n\nThe operative paragraph is this:\n\n“We have carried out a search of our digital records and have determined that the Wales Office does not hold the information requested. Any paper files previously held by the former Welsh Office relating to this matter would have been transferred to the National Assembly for Wales in 1999, and subsequently to the Welsh Government in 2007.”\n\nThat paragraph does not answer the request. The gaps are these.\n\n1. Digital records only. The letter says a search of digital records. It does not say that paper, microfilm, card indexes, transfer lists, accession registers, or destruction schedules were searched. A 1988 Welsh Office file is a paper file. A search confined to current digital holdings cannot find it, and cannot find the transfer or destruction docket that the fourth bullet asked for.\n\n2. “Would have been transferred” is not a search result. It is an assumption about devolution. It is not a statement that a transfer list was consulted, that a file for this house appears on that list, or that the file was received in Cardiff. “Would have been” covers three different outcomes: transferred, destroyed, or still here under another description. The letter does not distinguish them.\n\n3. The fourth bullet asked for the transfer, disposal and accession records themselves. Those records, if they exist, are Wales Office records of what left the building. They are not the assessment file. Pointing me to the Welsh Government does not answer a request for the docket, the list, the database entry or the disposal authority. Those may still be held here even if the file went to Cardiff. The letter does not say they were searched for.\n\n4. The five bullets are not answered one by one. There is no finding on communications with Cadw; no finding on any briefing or appeal to the Secretary of State; no finding on communications with occupiers and owners before 5 December 1988; no finding on the evidence said to have supported a 1988 decision. A single sentence that digital records do not hold “the information requested” does not show that each limb was searched.\n\n5. The letter uses “the refusal decision of 5 December 1988” only because I used it. It does not say whether that decision is recognised, whether a file for it was identified, or whether the decision is one of the papers “which would have been transferred”. Silence on a dated decision is not a not-held finding.\n\n6. “You may therefore wish” is not section 16 advice. Section 16 requires advice and assistance so far as reasonable. A reasonable step, where the department asserts a transfer, is to give the receiving body's file reference, the date of transfer, and the series. None is given. If the intention was section 21 (information reasonably accessible elsewhere), that exemption is not named, and the conditions are not addressed. A suggestion that I write to [email redacted] is not a section 21 notice.\n\n7. “Does not hold” is stated as a conclusion. The search described cannot support it. A not-held finding under section 1 requires a search capable of finding the information. A search of digital records, plus an assumption about 1999, is not that search.\n\n8. The request was answered from a Northern Ireland Office mailbox. The letter is in the name of the Wales Office. The review must be of the Wales Office search. Please confirm it will not be taken by the person who signed the 22 September letter.\n\nC. What the reviewing officer is asked to determine\n\n1. What was searched, by name: digital systems, paper series, transfer lists, accession registers, destruction schedules, Gwydyr House holdings, and any index of files passed to the National Assembly in 1999 or to the Welsh Government in 2007. If a location was not searched, say so.\n\n2. For each of the five bullets, a separate finding: held, not held after the searches at (1), transferred (with date, recipient and reference), or destroyed (with date and disposal authority).\n\n3. Whether any transfer, disposal or accession record relating to a Great House Farm 1988 assessment file is held by this department, as distinct from the assessment file itself.\n\n4. Whether any record of a decision on or about 5 December 1988, or of communications with the occupiers or owners before that date, was identified even as an index entry.\n\n5. If information is held and is not to be disclosed, a section 17 notice naming the exemption. Do not replace that notice with a referral.\n\n6. If the review maintains that the file went to Cardiff, the transfer reference. Without it, the referral is an assertion.\n\nD. Scope, so the review is not narrowed again\n\nThe window is July–December 1988. Possession of Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough, adjoining St Dochdwy's, was taken on 29 November 1988. Demolition of the farmhouse began on 6 December 1988. The refusal date in the request is 5 December 1988. Those dates fix the search. They do not ask you to decide the land.\n\nI have made a parallel request to the Welsh Government, following the referral. That does not discharge 26FOI 103. A file can have been transferred and the transfer docket can still be here. Both questions were asked. Only one was gestured at.\n\nE. Why these records are in scope, without asking you to decide title\n\nThe public index is https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/\n\nThe investigation distinguishes Parcel A (farmhouse, garden, buildings and yard — the family's maintained freehold interest out of the Bute estate) from Parcel B (eastern fields). Later papers use “whole farm”. BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2 decided possession, limitation and the October 1974 letters. It did not decide the documentary root of Parcel A. Whether the Secretary of State or Cadw looked at this house in the week it was refused and pulled down is a records question. It is not a request that you adopt the family's case.\n\nF. Preservation\n\nPlease preserve any record that may fall within 26FOI 103 while this review is open, including transfer lists, destruction schedules and anything due for routine disposal. Do not transfer or destroy in-scope material without a written receipt that can be disclosed on the review.\n\nG. Reservation\n\nThis letter does not waive any position on title, registration, concealment, limitation, or any later reopening. It is an internal review under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. It is not a claim form and is not service of proceedings.\n\nPlease acknowledge receipt, give the review reference, and state the date by which the review will be completed. ICO guidance is that an internal review should normally be completed within 20 working days.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals\n[email redacted]"},{"id":"gm-1a0e9f79f062df99","subject":"Formal concern, preservation and subject access — Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough — remedy before escalation","name":"Formal concern, preservation and subject access — Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough — remedy before escalation","date":"2026-09-28T21:41:54Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0e9f79f062df99.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0e9e2089441e30-formal-concern-preservation-and-subject-access-great-house-farm-t-mawr-llandough-remedy-before-escalation","scopeTopics":["vale-foi"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["vale-foi"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0e9e2089441e30","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"vale-foi","name":"Vale of Glamorgan Council"}],"refs":["00210772","00211463","00211484"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0e9f79f062df99.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Victoria Davidson\nMonitoring Officer and Head of Legal and Democratic Services\nVale of Glamorgan Council\n[email redacted]\nAlso: [email redacted]; [email redacted]\n\nSirs/Madam,\n\nThis is a formal concern, a preservation notice, and a subject access request.

Subject access under UK GDPR Article 15: personal data you hold about me, Sion Buckler, in those files, and about Mary Doreen Williams (died 26 March 1983) and William Buckler so far as the law allows a relative to see it. Say what identification you need before the month starts.\n\nThe public evidence index is https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/ .

It is *not a\njoint request*, and it does not ask any recipient to speak for, investigate\non behalf of, or answer in place of any other person or organisation. Each\nrecipient is asked to respond only in respect of records within that\nrecipient's own possession, custody or control, including records inherited\nfrom a predecessor organisation or retained on its behalf.\n1. Nature and purpose of this notice\n\nThis is a *formal preservation notice* concerning documentary material\nrelating to Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough-juxta-Penarth, adjoining\nSt Dochdwy's, and the subsequent development of the site, including the\narea now associated with Church View Close.\n\nIt is *not a claim form, is not service of proceedings, and is not intended\nto constitute or replace any FOI request, internal review, complaint,\nsubject-access request or other statutory process already made to any\nrecipient.*\n\nThe purpose of this notice is to require the preservation of potentially\nrelevant material while the documentary history, title chain, registration\nhistory, planning history, possession proceedings, demolition and\nsubsequent development are being reconstructed.\n\nA separate first-stage preservation notice has been issued or is being\nissued to Cadw / Welsh Government FOI, HM Land Registry Wales Office and\nDPO, Heneb / GGAT HER, RCAHMW, Vale of Glamorgan FOI Unit and DPO,\nGlamorgan Archives, South Wales Police FOI, The National Archives, the\nWales Office FOI team, and the National Library of Wales. Persimmon Homes\n(Wales) Ltd has received a separate preservation letter.\n\n*You are receiving this notice separately because the published documentary\nrecord places you, or a predecessor whose records may remain in your\ncustody or control, within the documentary, legal, professional,\nadministrative or development chain concerning this land.*\n2. Land and documentary scope\n\nPlease preserve, and do not destroy, alter, overwrite, discard, transfer\nout of custody without a recorded handover, or otherwise dispose of, any\nrecord within your possession, custody or control relating to the land or\nmatters identified below.\n\nThe scope includes, without limitation, *originals, copies, working papers,\ndrafts, annotations, plans, photographs, negatives, films, tapes, maps,\nregisters, indexes, correspondence, emails and attachments, electronic\nfiles, archived mailboxes, databases, metadata, internal notes, meeting\nrecords, instructions, client or matter files, survey material and other\nassociated records.*\n\nThe material requested includes:\n\n*1. Historical ownership, occupation and conveyancing*\n\nThe 1877 split; the 1916 and 1939 tenancies; the 1938 Bute to Western\nGround Rents conveyance; the 1969 Western Ground Rents to BP Pension Trust\nconveyance; and any plans, schedules, abstracts, searches, correspondence\nor other documents relied upon in relation to those transactions.\n\n*2. Possession proceedings and subsequent litigation*\n\nThe 1955 High Court and 1962 Cardiff County Court possession orders; the\n1974 proceedings; *BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2*; House of\nLords leave papers, including *YHL/PO/JO/10/11/2536*; and *Buckler v United\nKingdom (1989)*, including associated correspondence, instructions,\nevidence, plans and working papers.\n\n*3. Land registration*\n\nThe first registration of *WA231076*, including the application dated 30\nNovember 1982; the first registration of *WA240304*, including the\napplication dated 23 February 1983; subsequent amalgamation, transfer or\nclosure; and every plan, conveyance, abstract, search, application,\ncorrespondence trail or professional file relied upon in connection with\nthose registrations or changes.\n\n*4. 1988 possession and demolition*\n\nThe taking of possession on or about *29 November 1988* and the demolition\ncommenced on or about *6 December 1988*, including any planning,\nlisted-building, heritage, police, enforcement, media, contractor, survey,\nphotographic or inter-agency liaison material.\n\n*5. Planning and subsequent development, 1989–1996*\n\nPlanning application *89/01396/OUT*; reserved matters application\n*92/00671/RES*; conditions 16–18; GGAT / Cotswold Archaeology material;\nrecords concerning any *section 52, section 106, planning obligation, local\nland charge or equivalent instrument*; and the transfer from BP to Ideal\nHomes dated *3 December 1993*, together with all associated plans,\ncorrespondence, approvals, agreements, searches and completion material.\n\n*6. Family records*\n\nRecords concerning *Mary Doreen Williams (died 1983)* and *William Buckler*,\ninsofar as those records relate to Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, the land\ndescribed above, its occupation, ownership, possession, disposal,\nregistration, development or demolition.\n3. Predecessor and inherited files\n\nWhere you hold, or may hold, a file originating with a predecessor,\nsuccessor, merged practice, affiliated practice, client or other entity,\nthat material is also within scope.\n\nThis includes, without limitation, records originating from:\n\n*Loosemores of Cardiff; Robbins Olivey & Blake Lapthorn / Blake Morgan;\nLinklaters & Paines; Debenham Tewson / DTZ / Cushman & Wakefield; Wyn\nThomas + Partners; Ideal Homes Wales; BP Properties; BP Pension Trust;\nCotswold Archaeological Trust; Cardiff Bay Development Corporation; and\nSouth Glamorgan County Council.*\n\nThe reference to a predecessor file does not assert that you necessarily\nhold such a file. It identifies material for which a reasonable custody or\nsuccession inquiry should be made where applicable.\n4. Preservation steps\n\nPlease take reasonable steps to prevent the routine destruction, deletion,\nalteration or overwriting of potentially relevant material, including\nmaterial held in *archived mailboxes, legacy systems, off-site storage,\ndocument-management systems, backup repositories and other electronic or\nphysical stores*.\n\nWhere relevant material has been transferred to another repository,\narchive, successor organisation or third party, please preserve the\ninformation necessary to identify the transfer and its current location,\nincluding any accession, file, box, reference or custody details.\n\nNothing in this notice requires the creation of records that do not exist.\nThe request concerns the preservation of records already held or controlled\nby you.\n5. Purpose and legal position\n\nThis notice is *not a finding against any recipient*, and I am not asking\nany recipient to determine title or adjudicate the underlying dispute.\n\nThe *1987 Court of Appeal judgment* is relied upon here only for matters\nactually determined by that judgment, including the issues concerning\npossession, limitation and the October 1974 letters. This preservation\nnotice does not treat that judgment as having determined the complete\ndocumentary root of title to the farmhouse parcel.\n\nThe underlying documentary history, including the relationship between the\nfarmhouse parcel and the agricultural land subsequently dealt with through\nWestern Ground Rents and BP, remains a matter requiring reconstruction from\nthe primary records.\n\nAccordingly, preservation is requested precisely so that the documentary\nrecord can be established from the records themselves rather than through\nassumptions based on later registration, later occupation, later planning\ntreatment or secondary descriptions.\n6.

I note that\nan investigation officer will contact me within ten working days.\n\nI would like to place four further points on the file for the investigation\nofficer, in addition to those already set out in my emails.\n\n1. Public record\n\nPlease treat https://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/ as part of the\nmaterial already cited.\n\nThe landing page sets out, diagrammatically and with links to the\nunderlying evidence, the family’s case that Parcel A — the farmhouse,\ngarden and associated land on the Williams/Thomas line — was included\nwithin a whole-farm registered title even though the documentary root by\nwhich BP acquired that parcel remains unresolved.\n\nOur paper title deed being stolen from our home resulting in us not able to\nbe present in court in 1974 (and so ownership adjudication was ajourned and\nour ownership assertion was weakened (not exstiguished) we understand. But\nthe stretch of the imagine it takes to ever believe it was Western Ground\nRents or BPs is all based on absurdity after absurdity and does not in my\nestimation, meet the criteria of what a sane, reasonable person would do.\n\nThe website greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com\ndeliberately distinguishes documentary records from family evidence,\nreconstruction and unresolved inference. I am therefore not asking ICR to\naccept every proposition on the site as established fact; I am asking that\nthe underlying records and the specific questions identified there be\nconsidered.\n\n2. Chronology now recorded by HM Land Registry\n\nI had earlier written as if the two titles merged in 1983. That was wrong.\nHM Land Registry’s letter of 23 March 2026 (Lisa Griffiths, ref N610CGV)\nseparates the first-registration events from the later amalgamation. My\ncorrection of 27 September is already on your file.\n\nThe chronology that now matters is:\n\n• 30 November 1982 — application to first-register WA231076.\n\n• 23 February 1983 — application to first-register WA240304.\n\n• 26 March 1983 — Mary Williams died. Our family’s account is that notice\nof BP’s registration was received only after her death, during/ after that\nmourning period. Whether that account can be established from the notice,\nservice and correspondence records is itself a question for investigation.\n\n• 24 July 1986 — Hollis J. The historical title material still showed both\ntitles live.\n\n• 2 February 1987 — an application to amalgamate the two titles was\nrecorded. WA240304 was subsequently closed and registration continued under\nWA231076. This is the amalgamation event, distinct from the 1982/83 first\nregistrations. It occurred while the BP Properties Ltd v Buckler litigation\nwas still live and before the Court of Appeal judgment of 31 July 1987.\n\n• *14 April 1989 — Buckler v United Kingdom was declared inadmissible by\nthe European Commission of Human Rights.*\n\nI regard this as a further institutional failure that now requires\nreconsideration. The decision treated BP as having rights in our land\nparcel and referred to BP as the owners, although BP had been awarded\npossession, not ownership, and ownership of Parcel A had never been\nadjudicated in BP’s favour. The distinction is fundamental. Possession is\nnot the same thing as ownership, and an order for possession did not itself\ndetermine that BP had acquired the underlying proprietary interest in\nParcel A.\n\nOn the family’s case, our ownership claim to Parcel A was never\nextinguished. The question therefore is not simply whether BP obtained\npossession through the proceedings, but whether any legal process ever\ntransferred, extinguished or superseded the family’s underlying proprietary\ninterest. If it did not, the basis upon which BP was subsequently treated\nas having superior rights in the parcel requires examination.\n\nThat issue also goes directly to the later assertion that the family’s\noccupation became “permissive” under BP’s 1974 licence letters. A party\ncannot ordinarily confer a proprietary right it does not itself possess. If\nBP did not own Parcel A, it is necessary to establish what legal interest\nBP actually held that enabled it to grant my grandmother, or anyone else,\npermissive occupation of that parcel — particularly where there had already\nbeen a long succession of earlier attempts to establish a permissive basis\nfor the family’s occupation.\nThe point is especially significant because the person whose occupation was\nsupposedly made permissive was herself the long-standing occupier and, on\nthe family’s case, the superior title holder of the parcel, with the\nfamily’s occupation extending back centuries. I therefore ask that the\ninvestigation distinguish carefully between *possession awarded to BP,\nownership of Parcel A, and any alleged power to license the family’s\noccupation*. Those are not interchangeable propositions, and the\ndocumentary basis for treating them as such requires examination.\n\n3. What I am asking ICR to review\n\nHM Land Registry has told my MP, and said in its stage-two decision of 25\nMay 2026, that the title was registered correctly and that there is no\nevidence of a mistake. That is the institutional position my family has\nencountered for decades.\n\nI am not asking ICR to determine title. I am asking whether that conclusion\nwas reached after a proper examination of the first-registration files and,\nin particular:\n\n• the documentary basis and extent claimed for Parcel A in the\nfirst-registration applications;\n\n• the missing 31 December 1969 conveyance and the 1971 abstract of title;\n\n• the notice and service records, including what notice was given to the\noccupier, when, and what effective opportunity existed to object;\n\n• the three inconsistent closure dates now appearing in the HMLR record for\nWA240304; and\n\n• the 2 February 1987 amalgamation application, including what was actually\namalgamated, on what plans and documents, and what title information\nexisted at that point in the still-live litigation.\n\nThe concern is therefore not simply one of hindsight. Much of the relevant\nmaterial was created contemporaneously with the events in question. That is\nwhy I raise mistake, concealment and procedural unfairness as matters\nrequiring investigation, rather than as findings I am asking you to make at\nthis acknowledgement stage.\n\n4. Why the record was reconstructed from Y Wladfa\n\nFor almost two years I have been in the Welsh Settlement in Patagonia,\nrebuilding a replica of the farmhouse in which I was born.\n\nThat reconstruction prompted me to revisit the documentary history of Great\nHouse Farm and, in doing so, to compare the family evidence with the\nsurviving land-registration, court and archival records. That work is what\nbrought the title chronology and the unresolved Parcel A question back into\nfocus.\n\nThe replica is also a way of preserving the history of a house that was\ndemolished in December 1988. I mention this not as an argument on the\nmerits, but to explain why a historical record that had remained largely\nunexamined for decades was reconstructed now, and why I have pursued the\nunderlying documents rather than relying solely on inherited family\naccounts.\n\nY Wladfa itself exists because Michael D. Jones and those who followed him\njudged that Welsh language, history, heritage, people, landscape and\nbuildings were being overwritten in Wales — the process they cited as the\nwork of a “decapitation committee”. Which makes it interesting 99% of UK\nMPs refused to sign an EDM in 2025 condemning us Christians being\ndecapitated. Our land parcel was clearly a Christian stronghold and holy\nsacred lands and we were clearly stewards of it for centuries.\n\nThe Patagonia Welsh settlement is where those things are instead kept,\ncelebrated and respected. The replica stands there for the same reason the\noriginal house cannot stand on Parcel A.\n\nI will wait to hear from the investigation officer.\n\nI also take this opportunity to draw your attention to the enclosed PDF,\nwhich contains photographs relating to a tree-planting ceremony on the\nsouthernmost part of our claimed Parcel A and subsequent photographs\nshowing the tree being demolished. The ceremony is part of the family’s\nevidence of its assertion of ownership: my great-grandfather is recorded as\nplanting the tree to commemorate that ownership. The photographs also\npreserve contemporaneous visual evidence, including identifiable\nindividuals and machinery vehicle registration numbers, which may assist in\nestablishing who carried out the later destruction and in what\ncircumstances.\n\nThere is a further land-history issue which may be relevant to the wider\nquestion of how our claimed parcel came to be treated as no longer\nbelonging to the family. The woodland to the north of our home, on our\nclaimed parcel, was taken at a time when my grandmother had undergone a leg\namputation in 1955 and had become wheelchair-bound. I understand that this\nwoodland was subsequently gifted to a charity, which has itself contacted\nme recently; I enclose that correspondence with the present material.\n\nSimilarly, I understand that land to the south of the farmhouse was also\ntaken, notwithstanding that the 1955 possession order appears, on the\ndocumentary material presently available to me, to have concerned the\nparcel to the east of ours. The Council subsequently made the southern land\ninto a small green or park and, in the process, the commemorative tree and\nother physical evidence of the family’s assertion of ownership were\ndestroyed. I appreciate that this moves beyond the immediate registration\nquestion, but the destruction of physical evidence bearing directly upon\nthe family's historic claim may be relevant to understanding the subsequent\nevidential position.\n\nThere is also a further matter which I mention cautiously because I do not\nyet know its full significance. It has been alleged to me that the\nlong-serving Council Clerk for Llandough played a role in the destruction\nof this evidence. When I initially raised the matter through FOI, his\nresponse was, as I understand it, an attempt not to become involved. When\nsubsequently required to respond, he retired after approximately 35 years'\nservice. I am not asserting that these events establish misconduct or that\nhis retirement was connected with this matter; I do not presently know the\nextent, if any, of the connection.\n\nI include the material because I believe it may have evidential relevance,\nwhether to the immediate investigation or, if not, at a later stage when\nthe wider history of the land and the disappearance of evidence is\nconsidered. The tree ceremony, its subsequent destruction, the photographs,\nand the associated correspondence provide material evidence which I do not\nthink should be disregarded simply because some aspects of it may\nultimately fall outside the immediate scope of this review.\n\nThere is also an important cultural dimension to the evidence. The tree was\nnot merely a physical object: its planting appears to have been an act of\nasserting and commemorating ownership according to the family’s\nlongstanding traditions and understanding of the land. I recognise that\nquestions of ancient custom and tradition may not fall within the immediate\nlegal scope of ICR/090/26. I mention them because the destruction of the\nphysical manifestation of that assertion removed evidence of the very claim\nwhose documentary survival is now being investigated.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/ Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nICR/090/26\nTitles WA231076 / WA240304 (closed)\nHMLR refs: N610CGV; 260919-6726246\nhttps://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/"},{"id":"gm-1a0e91087e035256","subject":"Great House Farm, Llandough","name":"Great House Farm, Llandough","date":"2026-09-28T17:29:29Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0e91087e035256.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0e8f80ef591718-great-house-farm-llandough","scopeTopics":["vale-scrutiny"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["vale-scrutiny"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0e8f80ef591718","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"vale-scrutiny","name":"Vale of Glamorgan Council (Scrutiny)"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0e91087e035256.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Chris,\n\nI flew back, I'm even at Mamgus old house in Dinas from time to time.\n\nHere's a website AI generated and maintains which articulates my grievance.\nhttps://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com\n\nI shared with the charity who own the woodland. They're immidiate response\nwas to do what everyone has always done to us and ignore our ownership\nclaim and assertion and acknowledge someone else as the owner.\n\nMany and myself are still investigating. But in a nutshell a synthetic\nparcel appears to have been created, based on enough years of attempts to\nmake our occupancy appear permissive, so that the land registry can accept\nthe story. So 1974 licence letters was also a failed attempt and premis my\nfamily rejected, in a long line of failed attempts spanning back to at\nleast 1949.\n\nThe registration then made the 1987 ruling possible. And that ruling is\nwhat the land registry depend on to justify its decision to allow BP to\nregister a synthetic mimic of our parcel in their names, without notifying\nus until long after the appeal of that registration had ended. In which my\nnan conveniently died. Equally that 1987 ruling depends on the 1983\nregistration of our land parcel (or mimic synthetic version of it, built\nfrom a falsehood of a chain that didn't have root title and was not and\nnever was successful attempts to make our occupancy permissive.\n\nFurthermore the \"whole farm\" being treated as one parcel, was not merged\nback into one parcel (a synthetic version of our parcel too, not ours),\nuntil after the 1986/1987 case.\n\nSo my nan Mary Williams didn't get a fair opportunity to reject the licence\nletter in 1974 between it being offered and quashing the 1962 possession\norder for our land parcel. Which itself was never enforced and arguably not\nlegally enforceable as it was based on ambuguity from the 1955 order which\nmade our occupancy of our parcel simply appear permissive with concealment\nof the fact my nans resistence was due to her ownership claim. And\nconcealment of the fact \"whole farm\" excluded our parcel of land and was\nnot in the 1939 tenancy agreement. So not conveyed to Western Ground Rents\nin 1938.\n\nFurther to that my nans ownership claim, even though unable to be proven\ndue her title being stolen in 1950/52, still means having not paid anyone\nfor anything on her parcel since 1928 she will have already qualified for\nadverse possession by 1940.\n\nWe didn't get fair opportunity to appeal the 83 registration either. We\nalso didn't get opportunity to appeal CADWs decision to not list our county\ntreasure 800 year old home as a grade II before BP demolished it at 4am the\nnext day.\n\nThen the council didn't hold them to any account when they returned in 1989\nto get planning permission. The council are also under the microscope for\nmany failures. Failure to issue a demolition block order. Also two annexes\nare missing from those planning docs which are local historic societies\ntestemony to petition demolition citing our old ancestral homes\nsignificants (home since 1667 and my birth home I remind you).\n\nPlease just look at the evidence.\nhttps://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com\n\nMy family are living like hostages under terrorists and have done for 38\nyears. It's not acceptable. This demonic realm and spell has to be fought\noff.\n\nDo what you can please. Even if its a small prayer for us. I thank you in\nadvance.\n\nSee attached a few images from my military service. I served this country.\nI'm still trying to here. I left my career with full honours. My last\nemployer in the Vale Council. I hope this betrayal will end.

That was wrong. HM Land Registry’s own letter of 23 March 2026 (Lisa Griffiths, ref N610CGV) separates the two acts.\n1982–83 was first registration of two live titles, not a merger.\n30 November 1982: application to first-register WA231076. The Court of Appeal later treated BP Properties Ltd as registered proprietors of “the farm” from November 1982.\n23 February 1983: application to first-register a second title, WA240304.\n26 March 1983: Mary Williams died. On the family’s case, notice of those applications did not reach us until after her death, while the family was in mourning. She had no window in which to object. The family was not in a position to use any window that arrived after that.\nThose two titles remained separate through first instance.\n24 July 1986: Hollis J. Both titles were still live. The judgment language treats Great House Farm as one holding. It had not been one holding on the register. On the family’s case it had not been one holding since the 1877 split: Parcel A (house, buildings, garden/yard and about 10 acres, the Thomas/Williams line) and Parcel B (the eastern fields retained by Bute and later WGR/BP).\n2 February 1987: application to amalgamate the two titles. WA240304 was then closed and registration continued under WA231076. That is the merge. It was made after the 1986 ruling and before the Court of Appeal gave judgment on 31 July 1987.\nSo 1983 is silent first registration of a second title while Mary was still in Parcel A, or had only just died. 1987 is the administrative merger, carried out while the appeal was still open.\nThis was not a dispute about a single land parcel that BP already owned. Mary was on Parcel A, which the family says she owned, with occupation on that house parcel running in the family from at least 1667. BP, and WGR before it from 1949, were the neighbouring interest on Parcel B. From 1949 onwards the family’s case is that those neighbours ran a decades-long series of tenancy offers, “whole farm” wording, possession orders and the 1974 letters to make her occupation of her own parcel look permissive, and to make both parcels look like one estate they had acquired. They never produced a conveyance of Parcel A. What they had was an unfounded claim that her occupancy was permissive.\nPlease treat any earlier letter from me that said the titles merged in 1983 as corrected by this email. The dates that matter are:\n1982/83 — first registration of two titles, without the occupier being heard;\n24 July 1986 — first-instance judgment describing one farm while two titles still stood;\n2 February 1987 — amalgamation, before the appeal ended;\n31 July 1987 — Court of Appeal.\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler\nRefs where relevant: N610CGV; 260919-6726246; titles WA231076 and WA240304.\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\ngreathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com"},{"id":"gm-1a0e6dc8c61aeba3","subject":"RE: FOI - 2026-032 - Great House Farm, Llandough","name":"RE: FOI - 2026-032 - Great House Farm, Llandough","date":"2026-09-28T07:13:17Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0e6dc8c61aeba3.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0c8b62d56ff57c-foi-2026-032-great-house-farm-llandough","scopeTopics":["museum"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["museum"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0c8b62d56ff57c","direction":"received","from":"FOI Requests","institutions":[{"id":"museum","name":"Amgueddfa Cymru - Museum Wales"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0e6dc8c61aeba3.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Mr Buckler\n\nThank you for your email.\n\nJust to clarify, our collections management system records items individually and does not group records together based on similar place names.

Persimmon is therefore a present link in the conveyancing chain\narising from the registration of this land in BP Properties Ltd's name in\n1982–83, BP's subsequent transfer to Ideal Homes in 1993, and the later\ndevelopment history.\n\nI am conducting a documented investigation into the legitimacy of that\ntitle chain. This is not a speculative historical enquiry. The issues arise\nfrom identified Land Registry, conveyancing, court, planning and\npublic-authority records, and from specific documentary gaps which remain\nunresolved.\n\nThe central issue is the historic identity and ownership of the land.\n\nThe evidence presently assembled indicates two historically distinct\nparcels:\n\n• Parcel A: the farmhouse, garden, buildings, yard and associated woodland,\nwhich the Williams family maintains was acquired out of the Bute estate\nthrough the Daniel Thomas transaction and subsequently became the family's\nfreehold interest; and\n\n• Parcel B: the eastern agricultural fields, whose subsequent passage from\nBute to Western Ground Rents and then to BP is not presently disputed by\nthe family.\n\nThe significance of that distinction is that later documents repeatedly use\nthe expression “whole farm”, although the surviving 1939 tenancy plan is\nunderstood to show the eastern fields only. The 1938 Bute-to-Western Ground\nRents conveyance is therefore a material title-chain question: what estate\nwas actually capable of being conveyed by Bute in 1938, and did that\nconveyance include Parcel A?\n\nThere is further evidence requiring examination of the period from 1949 to\n1974, including repeated attempts to characterise Mary's occupation of the\nfarmhouse parcel as tenancy or permission; the loss of the family's title\npapers in about 1950–52; the 1955 possession order expressed in “whole\nfarm” terms but enforced everywhere except the farmhouse and garden; the\nseparate 1962 possession proceedings concerning the farmhouse and garden;\nMary's express assertion of ownership; and the 1974 proceedings, which were\nadjourned part-heard and were never finally adjudicated on the family's\nhistoric ownership claim.\n\nThe Court of Appeal's decision in BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA\nCiv 2 subsequently concerned possession, limitation and the legal effect of\nthe October 1974 letters. The judgment records Mary's asserted ownership\nand the absence of the documents she said supported it. The present\ninvestigation therefore distinguishes carefully between what that judgment\ndecided concerning possession and limitation and the separate question of\nwhether the documentary root and extent of WGR/BP's title to Parcel A were\never actually established.\n\nThat distinction becomes particularly important in relation to first\nregistration.\n\nHM Land Registry records show BP's first-registration applications for\nWA231076 and WA240304 in 1982–83. The surviving registration material also\nidentifies a 31 December 1969 conveyance from Western Ground Rents to BP\nPension Trust as a root of title, but that conveyance is not presently\nincluded in the 30 July 2026 schedule of documents surviving on the\nrelevant first-registration files. The 1975 conveyance and plan, the\n1982–83 registration material, the extent of the two titles and their later\namalgamation therefore require direct reconciliation against the underlying\ndocumentary title.\n\nThere is also an unresolved procedural issue concerning notice and\nopportunity to object during the 1982–83 first-registration process. Mary\nWilliams remained in occupation of the farmhouse. The family evidence\nrecorded on the evidence index is that notification was not received until\nafter her death on 26 March 1983. I am obtaining the primary notice,\nservice, application and registration records to establish exactly what\noccurred.\n\nThe matters under investigation consequently include possible registration\nmistake, procedural unfairness, material non-disclosure and, depending upon\nwhat the primary records establish, possible fraud or deliberate\nconcealment. There are also unresolved public-authority record questions\ninvolving HM Land Registry, court administration and other authorities.\nThese are identified as evidential questions, not asserted as established\nfindings against Persimmon or any individual.\n\nPersimmon's position is therefore directly relevant because its present\nregistered title derives from the historic chain now being examined.\n\nPlease provide a substantive response to the following:\n\n   1.\n\n   *Title chain:* What documentary chain does Persimmon say establishes its\n   predecessor's title to the whole of WA231076, including the farmhouse,\n   garden and associated land now comprising Church View Close?\n   2.\n\n   *BP / Ideal Homes due diligence:* What title, acquisition and\n   due-diligence documents were supplied to and reviewed by Persimmon in\n   connection with the acquisition from Ideal Homes, including deeds, plans,\n   title abstracts, searches, requisitions, Land Registry correspondence and\n   enquiries concerning the extent of WA231076/WA240304?\n   3.\n\n   *Earlier title documents:* Does Persimmon hold, or has it ever held,\n   copies of the 1969 WGR-to-BP Pension Trust conveyance, the 1975 BP Pension\n   Trust-to-BP Properties conveyance and plan, the 1982–83 first-registration\n   application/bundle, or documents explaining the inclusion of the farmhouse\n   parcel within the registered extent?\n   4.\n\n   *1996 correspondence:* Does Persimmon retain the correspondence from\n   March 1996 with HM Land Registry concerning WA231076, identified in the\n   surviving title chronology as the last dealing on the file? If so, please\n   provide a copy, subject to any properly applicable exemption or privilege.\n   5.\n\n   *Parcel A:* Has Persimmon ever reviewed the underlying documentary title\n   sufficiently to satisfy itself that the farmhouse/garden parcel was\n   actually comprised in the title acquired by BP, rather than being brought\n   within the registered extent through the later “whole farm” description?\n   6.\n\n   *Present position:* Having regard to the matters above, does Persimmon\n   maintain that its title to the farmhouse/garden parcel is supported by an\n   identifiable documentary root independent of the possession and limitation\n   history considered in BP Properties Ltd v Buckler?\n\nIf Persimmon maintains that the documentary title to Parcel A is\nestablished, please identify the instrument or instruments on which that\nposition depends and the land those instruments actually comprise.\n\nI am seeking voluntary or pre-action disclosure of non-privileged material\nwhere possible. If any requested document is withheld, please identify the\ndocument or category concerned and the basis upon which it is withheld.\n\n*Preservation notice*\n\nPlease treat this correspondence as formal notice to preserve all documents\nand electronically stored information within Persimmon's possession,\ncustody or control that may be relevant to the title, acquisition,\nregistration, extent, occupation, planning or development of this land.\n\nThis includes historical material inherited from BP Properties, Ideal Homes\nor any other predecessor, together with deeds, conveyances, plans, title\nabstracts, searches, due-diligence files, acquisition memoranda,\nlegal/property correspondence, Land Registry correspondence, planning\nrecords and communications with public authorities.\n\nPlease ensure that no routine retention, deletion, destruction, disposal or\noverwriting process removes potentially relevant material.

A\npolice presence on that scale would have generated records: a duty or\ndeployment record, an operational order or briefing, an occurrence or\nincident log, liaison with the Under-Sheriff or bailiffs, press office\nmaterial, and possibly photographs.\n\nFor the review, please confirm in writing:\n\n(a) Which systems, archives and paper holdings were searched, including\npre-1990s paper records of the former Penarth/Barry division and any South\nGlamorgan command records.\n(b) The search terms used. Records of that period may be indexed under\n\"Leckwith Road\", \"Llandough\", \"BP Properties\", \"Buckler\", \"Williams\", \"Ty\nMawr\", \"eviction\", \"breach of the peace\" or the date, rather than \"Great\nHouse Farm\".\n(c) Whether records of that type from 1988 were destroyed under a retention\nschedule, and if so which schedule and whether any disposal record survives.\n(d) Whether any records were transferred to Glamorgan Archives or the South\nWales Police Heritage Centre, with the reference if known.\n\nIf records were destroyed, a record of their destruction is itself\ninformation I am asking for. If they are held elsewhere, please tell me\nwhere, under your duty to advise and assist.\n\nI was present at the eviction as a child.

HMLR\nreferences: N610CGV, 260919-6726246.\n\nI ask you to review how HM Land Registry handled my complaint. HMLR gave\nits final decision on 25 May 2026 that the title was \"registered\ncorrectly\". I understand you cannot review that registration decision\nitself. My complaint is about the way it was reached and handled:\n\n1. The decision came before the file was examined. HMLR gave its final\ndecision on 25 May 2026, but did not list what the first-registration files\nactually contain until 30 July 2026. A final complaint decision cannot\nproperly rest on documents that had not yet been identified.\n\n2. The decision relies on a document that does not appear on the file.\nHMLR's letter of 19 April 2026 described a 15-year root of title. The root\nrelied on, a conveyance of 31 December 1969, was under 13 years old at\nfirst registration in 1982. Neither that conveyance nor the 1971 abstract\nsaid to prove it appears on the 30 July 2026 file list, and HMLR has not\nexplained this.\n\n3. HMLR has given three different dates for the closure of title WA240304:\n1983 (file correspondence of 12 April 1983), 1987 (an amalgamation\napplication of 2 February 1987, made while my family's appeal was pending)\nand 2005 (an email of 21 September 2026). It has not reconciled them.\n\n4. The stage 1 response relied on a form FR1 certificate, although the\napplications were on forms 1E and 1C.\n\n5. The file holds examination material (form D23 and a letter of 8 April\n1983) and two 1994 applications \"to correct the title\". HMLR has not\nexplained any of them.\n\n6. My written questions, including through my MP Stephen Doughty, have been\nredirected to a property search service instead of being answered.\n\nThe outcome I seek is a numbered written answer to these points,\nconfirmation that all first-registration, amalgamation and correction\nrecords for both titles are being preserved, and acknowledgement of any\nfailure in how the complaint was handled.\n\nI am separately taking advice on whether to apply to alter the register.

ST 167 733).\n\nGlamorgan Archives (Louise Hunt, ref. 2026/4097, 24 September 2026) has confirmed that the following references are yours, not theirs, and has directed me to you:\n\n1. D153 — Deeds relating to premises in p. Llandough, co. Glam., comprising a dwelling house adjoining the churchyard, 1811 (D153/1–2), and land (D153 onwards, including items sometimes cited as D153/4–8).\n2. D219 — Llandough manorial leases and agreements.\n3. The main Bute Estate deposit, GB 0210 BUTE (deeds to 1937; Glamorgan / Cardiff rentals).\n\nI do not ask you to adjudicate title. I ask only whether the following instruments exist in your holdings, and for catalogue references, dates, parties, acreages, and whether a plan is attached.\n\nA. The 1877 division\nDoes the Bute deposit contain a conveyance, agreement, or other instrument of about 1876–1877 by which the Marquess of Bute (or trustees) conveyed or contracted to convey the farmhouse, buildings and about 10 acres adjoining the churchyard at Llandough to Daniel Thomas (or Thomas and another), while retaining about 9 acres of agricultural land to the east?\n\nB. The 1916 agricultural tenancy\nDoes the deposit contain a yearly agricultural tenancy, or counterpart, of 1916 from the Marquess of Bute to John Williams of Great House Farm, Llandough?\nIf yes:\n- does the parcels clause describe the whole farm, or only the land Bute still owned after 1877?\n- is there a plan?\n- what acreage is stated?\n\nC. Rentals 1877–1936 for this farm\nDo Glamorgan / Cardiff / Llandough rentals in GB 0210 BUTE distinguish, after c.1877, between:\n- a house/buildings holding (Thomas / later Williams), and\n- a residual Bute field holding later passed to Western Ground Rents in 1938?\n\nD. Anything that would show the two holdings were treated as one unit again before 1938.\n\nPurpose. HM Land Registry first-registered titles WA231076 (30 November 1982) and WA240304 (23 February 1983; later amalgamated). The 1982/83 files treat the land as one farm. The family case is that Parcel A (house and about 10 acres) had already left Bute in 1877 and was not the land let in 1916, so the 1982 merged title cannot be the same unit as the 1916 tenancy. Your deeds and rentals are the estate-side evidence that can confirm or deny that.\n\nI live in Patagonia and cannot visit Aberystwyth in person in the short term. I would be grateful for:\n- catalogue references and a short description of any matching items;\n- whether copies can be supplied, and the cost;\n- if the 1916 tenancy is not in GB 0210 BUTE, any note of where Bute tenancy counterparts after 1910 were deposited.\n\nThis is a new enquiry. It is not a repeat of FOI/2026/11. Glamorgan Archives hold the 1938–44 Western Ground Rents plan/rental book (D696) and have already answered on their own Bute material.\n\nSion (Hywel) Buckler\n[email redacted] <[email redacted]>\n[phone redacted]\n\nPublic chronology and parcel statement:\nhttps://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/the-two-parcels/\nhttps://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/1916-tenancy/\nhttps://greathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com/land-registry-titles/\n\n------------------\n\n\n\n\nThis email is sent from LibAnswers in relationship to ticket #9816877.\n\nRead our privacy policy. <https://springshare.com/privacy.html>"},{"id":"gm-1a0e1141d1bbf552","subject":"RE: FOI - 2026-032 - Great House Farm, Llandough","name":"RE: FOI - 2026-032 - Great House Farm, Llandough","date":"2026-09-27T04:16:26Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0e1141d1bbf552.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0c8b62d56ff57c-foi-2026-032-great-house-farm-llandough","scopeTopics":["museum"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["museum"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0c8b62d56ff57c","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"museum","name":"Amgueddfa Cymru - Museum Wales"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0e1141d1bbf552.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear FOI Team,\n\nFOI 2026-032\n\nDiolch yn fawr. Thank you for the records, the descriptors and the\npublished references. This is a thorough response and it is genuinely\nuseful.\n\nOne correction of place is required.\n\nThe request concerns Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough near Penarth /\nCardiff. Among the disclosed PAS material is at least one record for a\ndifferent property of the same name: Great House Farm, Llandough near\nCowbridge (including 2022.18.1, NGR SS9934672805, medieval lead Romanesque\nmount). There is also a Great House farm entry at Llandow. Those are not\nthe site named in the request. Two Llandoughs, and more than one Great\nHouse Farm, sit in the same county. The homonym is easy to miss and\nmaterial.\n\nPlease treat the Cowbridge / Llandow entries as out of scope for this\nrequest unless you hold recorded information showing they were, at any\ntime, indexed, cited, or treated as if they related to Great House Farm,\nLlandough (Penarth / Cardiff). If any such cross-attribution exists in\nhistoric files, catalogues, correspondence, or search notes, that recorded\ninformation is within scope and I ask that it be disclosed.\n\nIf labels or findspot fields are now amended to distinguish the two farms,\nplease do not overwrite the original wording without retaining the prior\nform.

Please do not destroy, weed,\nor replace the versions as disclosed on 22 September 2026.\n\nOne small point from my email of 26 August also remains.

Cadw and RCAHMW have supplied\nthree unreconciled HER references for the same site: GGAT02038s, GGAT03586s\nand GGATE003872.\n\nThis is not a chaser of my records request of 8 September 2026 or the\nschedule of 19 September (ref GHF/HENEB/2026-09-20). That request remains\nopen and is due a response by 6 October. Please treat this complaint as a\nseparate file and give it a complaint reference.\n\nWhat this is not. It is not an allegation that GGAT demolished the house,\nadvised that it be demolished, or decided that it should not be listed. It\nis not an allegation of dishonesty, bad faith or criminal conduct. It is\nnot a title claim and I do not ask you to adjudicate BP v Buckler. GGAT's\nletters of 13 and 15 December 1993, recommending a Breach of Condition\nNotice when Condition 18 had not been met, were the Trust doing its\ncuratorial job. That is recorded here so it is not lost in what follows.\n\nThe charge, put narrowly. GGAT was the public curator of the regional\nrecord; the adviser who told the planning authority it could not determine\n89/01396/OUT without an archaeological assessment; the body which, in the\nsame document, specified machine-trench evaluation, quoted £2,000 and two\nweeks, and recorded that it was already negotiating that work with BP\nProperties; the contractor who then executed that evaluation on a\nchurchside monastic site its own 1978–80 excavations and its own 1982\nletter had already flagged; and the author of a zoning map which treated as\nempty ground in which, four years later, inhumations were found a few\ncentimetres below the topsoil. Disclosure of the dual role was not\nmanagement of it. The public record still does not reliably carry what was\nfound. Heneb's entire substantive reply since May is one sentence about\ncorporate form.\n\nI enclose GGAT — Forensic Critique, Version 4.0.0 (21 September 2026). It\ndistinguishes established fact, reasonable inference, what cannot be\nestablished, and facts that cut against the criticism. Where earlier\nversions were wrong, the corrections are printed and kept. The critique is\nthe sourcing. This letter is the complaint. Please answer the letter. Treat\nthe critique as the schedule of sources, not as a substitute for numbered\nanswers.\n\n1. I have not seen the HER\n\nI do not assert the wording of GGAT02038s, because I have not been allowed\nto read it. Cadw has said the content of the HER is managed by Heneb.\nRCAHMW and Cadw have given three different identifiers for the same site.\nTests of Archwilio on 20 September 2026 did not return an error for\nunresolved records. They returned a different record, from a different\ntrust, for a different site, with no warning:\n\nGGAT02038s → GAT46242 (Gwynedd desk-based assessment)\nGGAT03586s → GAT92911 (farmstead, Warwick Place, Gwynedd)\nGGAT02038s, alternative path, three attempts → E001657 each time\n\nA control query for an indexed record returned correctly. Please test those\nthree queries, correct the substitution if confirmed, and tell me the\noutcome. Then permit inspection of the source file and supply an index of\nevery linked site and event record with its correct reference.\n\n2. \"Partially recorded\" is RCAHMW's phrase, not a finding I have verified\non the HER\n\nOn 10 June 2026 Dr Adam Coward quoted NMR 6048945: \"The house remained\npartially recorded because of problems created by an ownership dispute. The\nhouse and farm buildings were suddenly and completely destroyed by B. P.\nProperties Ltd. on 6th December 1988 amid considerable local controversy.\"\n\nThat is the Royal Commission's file. I hold H. J. Thomas's measured\nground-floor plan of 26 April 1974, at 1:100, identifying the principal\nrooms including the Dairy and recording the beams. GGAT reproduced that\nplan as Figure 2 of its 1990 assessment, by kind permission. A measured\nground-floor survey that could not reach the first floor and roof is not,\nwithout more, a failed survey.\n\nPlease state, from records you hold:\n(a) whether the HER uses the phrase \"partially recorded\", and if so from\nwhich source;\n(b) what parts of the building the 1974 survey measured, and what it did\nnot;\n(c) what contemporaneous document, if any beyond NMR 6048945, establishes\nthat access was restricted by the ownership dispute, by whom, on what date,\nand to whom;\n(d) whether Trench 7 of 1990 (north-east corner / former dairy, stone\nfloor, mortared partition) was ever reconciled against the 1974 plan, and\nif the Trench 7 drawings, photographs and grid survive.\n\n3. What GGAT held in 1988, and what it did not do\n\nOn 1 October 1982 GGAT told the Vale that occupation might continue north\nof the church and that thorough investigative work should precede\ndevelopment. Between that letter and November 1988 no GGAT act concerning\nthis site has been identified. RCAHMW added to its 1974 plan on 12 December\n1988, six days after the demolition. There is no equivalent GGAT event. The\n1990 report notes architectural features \"observed in the rubble\" and then\nbegins GGAT's own account with the words \"Following the demolition… GGAT\nentered into discussion with Debenham Tewson\".\n\nPlease state what the SMR entry contained immediately before December 1988;\nwhether the 1982 advice was on it; whether any emergency building record,\nwatching brief on the demolition or the rubble, or post-demolition fabric\nreport exists; and where the carved stone and other architectural material\nlater referred to now is.\n\n4. \"County treasure\"\n\nGGAT 1989 §2.3: \"At present our information on the Great House Farm area is\nlimited to the records of the recently demolished property which was listed\nas a 'county treasure'.\" The phrase conferred no statutory protection.\nIdentify the list or card, the date, the criteria, and what information\nabout the building accompanied it. If you do not hold that document, say so.\n\n5. Specify, price, bid, execute\n\nIn one 1989 consultee report GGAT advised that 89/01396/OUT should not be\ndetermined without an assessment; specified machine-excavator trial\ntrenching; quoted two weeks at £2,000; and recorded that negotiations with\nBP Properties via Debenham Tewson were already under way. BP then\ncommissioned GGAT. The 1990 report disclosed a \"dual role\" and invited\neither party to go elsewhere. Disclosure is recorded. It is not the same as\nmanagement.\n\nThe IFA Code of approved practice for contractual arrangements was adopted\non 17 September 1990, after the assessment was delivered. It does not bind\nthat commission. The Welsh Archaeological Trusts' Code of Practice dates\nfrom November 1997 and is not applied retrospectively. What did bind the\n1989–90 arrangement, as contemporaneous standards rather than as a pleaded\ncause of action: the IFA Code of Conduct in force from June 1985; the BADLG\nCode, which GGAT expressly endorsed in the 1989 report; section 13 of the\nSupply of Goods and Services Act 1982 as the implied standard of care\nbetween GGAT and BP (the family was not a party); and the fiduciary duty of\ncharity trustees to identify and manage conflicts, not merely to notify two\ncommercial counterparties.\n\nOn 18 May 1994 GGAT's Curatorial Section wrote, of another contractor: \"An\narchaeological contractor should never be in the position of writing his\nown Brief as well as carrying out the work.\" That principle was not met by\nGGAT's own 1989–90 arrangement.\n\nPlease identify who wrote the 1989 recommendation, who accepted the\ncommission, whether those functions were separated, whether trustees or\nCadw were told, and who wrote the 1990 brief. If you hold Appendix \"B\" to\nthe officer's report (GGAT's further comments of 8 February 1990), Appendix\n\"D\" (the representation from a County Councillor identified as a member of\nGGAT), or Appendix \"E\" (the applicant's agents' written response to GGAT's\nreport), produce them. None of those three is in the planning file released\nin 2026. Appendix \"A\" is. I do not assert that GGAT removed them. I ask\nwhether copies survive in GGAT/Heneb files.\n\n6. The 1990 method against GGAT's own model\n\nGGAT had excavated an early-medieval cemetery, a Roman villa and a\nTewkesbury Abbey grange immediately south of the same church, on the same\nalkaline Liassic geology, and had written that occupation might continue\nnorth of it. It chose eight machine-cut trenches, some placed \"at random\",\nand then rated uninvestigated eastern ground \"non existent to low\"\npotential. That rating converted a logistical limit into an empirical\nclaim. Cotswold's December 1994 preliminary report recorded that burials\ncontinued into that zone and \"lay only a few centimetres below the topsoil\".\n\nI do not say a 1990 evaluation had to predict 1,026 burials. I ask whether\nthe method was capable of detecting shallow inhumations on ground where\nGGAT's own experience predicted excellent bone survival, and whether the\n1990 evaluation has ever been reviewed against the 1994 results. If it has\nnot, will Heneb review it now.\n\n7. Human remains and the 1981 Act\n\nGGAT identified the Disused Burial Grounds (Amendment) Act 1981 and found\ndisarticulated human bone by the churchyard wall. That Act turns on whether\nthe land is a burial ground. A colour-coded potential map cannot answer it.\nWhat legal advice was obtained, when, and from whom? What evidence set the\nburial-ground boundary? Was a review undertaken after 1994?\n\n8. Two burial figures, both correct\n\nCotswold's December 1994 preliminary report, §4.2: 858 inhumations and 152\ndisarticulated bone groups. Holbrook and Thomas, Medieval Archaeology 49\n(2005): 1,026 burials comprising 814 articulated inhumations and 212\ndisarticulated bone groups, of which 801 skeletons received full\nosteological analysis; \"by far the largest Early-medieval burial population\nso far recovered from Wales\". They are the same excavation counted twice.\nPlease confirm which figure the HER now carries, and that both stages are\nidentified as such.\n\n9. The c.1880 ironwork sentence, and what Amgueddfa Cymru now holds\n\nGGAT 1990: \"it is likely that some medieval ironwork which is held by the\nNational Museum of Wales was discovered under the rear wing c 1880 (RCAHMW\n1988).\" By 2005 that hedged sentence had become flat assertion in print.\n\nAmgueddfa Cymru's disclosures of 25 August 2026 (FOI 2026-024 and internal\nreview 22 September 2026) and 22 September 2026 (FOI 2026-032) establish\nthe following, so far as the Museum holds recorded information:\n\n(a) No accession, donation, transfer or deposit answering a visor, lance,\nhelmet, armour, soldier, horse, or nineteenth-century discovery under the\nfarmhouse floor.\n(b) Accession 82.44H is the 1979 GGAT excavation assemblage. Collected by\nGlamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust Ltd, 1979; donated 14 June 1982 by\nWales & West Housing Association Ltd; bibliographic reference Owen-John\n1988. The collections database locality field is \"Llandough Roman Villa\",\nNGR ST 168 733 — not \"Great House Farm\".\n(c) Accession 95.56H is the 1994 Cotswold Archaeological Trust cemetery\nassemblage. Collected by CAT, 1994; donated 28 July 1994 by Ideal Homes\nWales Ltd. Locality field: \"Great House Farm Llandough\", NGR ST 1681 7331.\nPeriod on the human-remains entries: Early Medieval (c.400–c.1070).\n(d) Accession 63.24 is objects stated to have been found at Church Farm,\nLlandough, in 1858. The Museum's explanatory note of 22 September 2026\nrecords that this is the only paperwork on that file, and that staff\nconsider it possible those objects are the basis of the later local story.\nThat is the Museum's observation, not a finding I ask you to adopt as fact.\n\nQualify or withdraw the 1880 sentence if you hold no source beyond the 1990\nwording. Carry 82.44H and 95.56H on the principal HER description, with\ncollector, donor, donation date, locality field as catalogued, and NGR. If\nthe HER still points a professional user first to a post-medieval dwelling,\nthat is a record defect against what both excavations produced and what the\nnational museum now catalogues.\n\nPlease also confirm whether GGAT retained copies of the 1980 donation\ncorrespondence with the National Museum (letters of 14 and 24 April 1980\nare on the public record) and of any transfer file for 82.44H.\n\n10. What the public record must now say\n\nIf GGAT02038s, or its successor identifier, still leads as a post-medieval\nfarm or dwelling, it does not satisfy the function of a working historic\nenvironment record, and it is difficult to reconcile with section 194(2)(j)\nof the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2023. I have not seen the source\nfile, so I put that as a request for correction if the classification is as\ndescribed by Cadw officers, not as a finding I have verified on the face of\nthe record.\n\nA professional user needs, in the principal description and not only in a\nlater narrative paragraph: the 1974 measured survey; GGAT's 1978–80 work\nand 1982 advice; that the 1990 evaluation followed demolition and found\nhuman bone; that the 1994 excavation recovered the assemblage above,\nincluding in the 1990 low-potential zone; museum accessions 82.44H and\n95.56H with their catalogued localities; and a note that the c.1880 NMW\nironwork attribution is uncorroborated by the institution said to hold the\nobject.\n\nPlease also reconcile the NGRs in use for the farmhouse, the 1990 trenches,\nthe 1994 excavation, the churchyard and the development parcels.\nDistinguish this site from Great House Farm, Llandough near Cowbridge, and\nfrom Llandow. Two Llandoughs sit in the same historic county. Homonym error\nis a live records risk.\n\nWhat I ask now\n\nA. A complaint reference, the name of the person who will determine it, the\nprocedure you will apply, the timescale, and any independent review route.\nPreserve all surviving Great House Farm records pending that determination.\n\nB. Confirm which legal entity holds the records and functions formerly of\nGGAT Ltd, and who handles HER corrections.\n\nC. Answer sections 1 to 10 from the documents you hold. Where a document\ndoes not survive, say when it left the file, under what retention rule, and\nby whose authority.\n\nD. Correct the HER so that the 1979 and 1994 investigations and accessions\n82.44H and 95.56H sit in the principal description, the 1880 attribution is\nqualified, the 1990 low-potential zone is annotated against the 1994\nresult, the three identifiers are reconciled, and Archwilio does not\nsilently substitute another trust's site.\n\nE. Test and, if confirmed, correct the Archwilio substitution.\n\nF. If you accept any part of this complaint, say what remedy you offer:\nrecord correction, release of surviving files or an index, a written\naccount of the 1989–90 dual-role arrangement, and a methodological note on\nthe 1990 evaluation against the 1994 excavation.\n\nI do not ask you to adjudicate title. I do ask you to account for what GGAT\nknew, what it recorded, what it advised, what it then sold and executed,\nwhat was found four years later, what the national museum now catalogues\nfrom GGAT's own 1979 work, and whether the public record now tells the\ntruth of that sequence.\n\nThis letter is sent so that Heneb and GGAT Ltd have a fair opportunity to\ninvestigate, answer, and offer remedy before any further process. Please\nanswer each numbered section.

ST 167 733).\n\nGlamorgan Archives (Louise Hunt, ref. 2026/4097, 24 September 2026) has\nconfirmed that the following references are yours, not theirs, and has\ndirected me to you:\n\n1. D153 — Deeds relating to premises in p. Llandough, co. Glam., comprising\na dwelling house adjoining the churchyard, 1811 (D153/1–2), and land (D153\nonwards, including items sometimes cited as D153/4–8).\n2. D219 — Llandough manorial leases and agreements.\n3. The main Bute Estate deposit, GB 0210 BUTE (deeds to 1937; Glamorgan /\nCardiff rentals).\n\nI do not ask you to adjudicate title. I ask only whether the following\ninstruments exist in your holdings, and for catalogue references, dates,\nparties, acreages, and whether a plan is attached.\n\nA. The 1877 division\nDoes the Bute deposit contain a conveyance, agreement, or other instrument\nof about 1876–1877 by which the Marquess of Bute (or trustees) conveyed or\ncontracted to convey the farmhouse, buildings and about 10 acres adjoining\nthe churchyard at Llandough to Daniel Thomas (or Thomas and another), while\nretaining about 9 acres of agricultural land to the east?\n\nB. The 1916 agricultural tenancy\nDoes the deposit contain a yearly agricultural tenancy, or counterpart, of\n1916 from the Marquess of Bute to John Williams of Great House Farm,\nLlandough?\nIf yes:\n- does the parcels clause describe the whole farm, or only the land Bute\nstill owned after 1877?\n- is there a plan?\n- what acreage is stated?\n\nC. Rentals 1877–1936 for this farm\nDo Glamorgan / Cardiff / Llandough rentals in GB 0210 BUTE distinguish,\nafter c.1877, between:\n- a house/buildings holding (Thomas / later Williams), and\n- a residual Bute field holding later passed to Western Ground Rents in\n1938?\n\nD. Anything that would show the two holdings were treated as one unit again\nbefore 1938.\n\nPurpose. HM Land Registry first-registered titles WA231076 (30 November\n1982) and WA240304 (23 February 1983; later amalgamated). The 1982/83 files\ntreat the land as one farm. The family case is that Parcel A (house and\nabout 10 acres) had already left Bute in 1877 and was not the land let in\n1916, so the 1982 merged title cannot be the same unit as the 1916 tenancy.\nYour deeds and rentals are the estate-side evidence that can confirm or\ndeny that.\n\nI live in Patagonia and cannot visit Aberystwyth in person in the short\nterm. I would be grateful for:\n- catalogue references and a short description of any matching items;\n- whether copies can be supplied, and the cost;\n- if the 1916 tenancy is not in GB 0210 BUTE, any note of where Bute\ntenancy counterparts after 1910 were deposited.\n\nThis is a new enquiry.

I do travel back and forth to the UK and will visit\nLeckwith in person, where I look forward to meeting you and the team and\nthanking you personally.\n\nI wanted to reply because I think I can now explain more precisely what I\nam trying to establish from the records.\n\nI am trying to reconstruct what happened historically which led my late\ngrandmother and father, over many decades, to continue asserting that our\nfamily owned the land at Great House Farm, while that position was\nrepeatedly contested and ultimately possession was awarded to BP in *BP\nProperties Ltd v Buckler*.\n\nWhat has caused me to revisit the documentary history is that the later\nposition is not as straightforward as I had previously assumed. Land\nRegistry has now told me that its position is not that it determined that\nmy family did not own the land; but it insists that no registration mistake\nhas been identified, which is what the MP forwarded me (they're fobbing him\noff too).\n\nLand registry will wake up to this soon I'm sure. Or I'm wrong and I need\nto wake up. But I am a military warfare professional, and while I make\nmistakes, or AI makes mistakes on my behalf, I have no issue holding my\nhands up. I'm just trying to understand what happened to us and our home\nand our land as children in the 80's, and why it all happened.\n\nAt the same time, I have so far found no convincing documentary evidence of\nmy family paying rent for the particular parcel which we occupied and\nclaimed as our own after the quarrying arrangement appears to have come to\nan end.\n\nI have therefore had one of my AI agents published my current\nreconstruction, including the documentary sources behind it, here:\n\nGreat House Farm research <https://reference-url-citation.invalid/3>\n\nI am not asking you to accept that reconstruction. It's clearly hit and\nmiss as an early technology. I am asking for your help in testing it\nagainst the records held by Glamorgan Archives.\nThe central question\n\nMy present understanding is that what had originally been treated as one\nagricultural holding can, when the surviving documents are examined\nchronologically, be distinguished into two areas.\n\nFor simplicity, I have called them *Parcel A* and *Parcel B*:\n\n   - *Parcel A* — the farmhouse, house plot, garden and associated land\n   north/west of St Dochdwy's Church, occupied by my family; and\n   - *Parcel B* — the agricultural land to the east which was subject to\n   the agricultural tenancy and subsequently associated with Western Ground\n   Rents.\n\nI appreciate that “Parcel A” and “Parcel B” are my labels, not historical\ndescriptions appearing in the documents. But they aren't entirely just my\nlabels, parcel B is clearly what is in the 1939 map, which you hold, which\nthe council clerk for Llandough directed me to earlier this year, on his\nday of retirement.\n\nAlso in 1983 two parcels were merged at the land registry, by BP. Which\nconfirms two parcels. I have purchased all those records avaliable and the\nmaps do confirm what I suspect.\n\nThe important question is whether the *underlying documents themselves\nsupport the physical distinction*.\n\nMy working reconstruction is that the 1877 Daniel Thomas/Williams\narrangements ultimately resulted in my family acquiring the freehold\ninterest in the land around the farmhouse when the quarrying arrangement\ncame to an end, with the last machinery leaving in 1928.\n\nIf that is correct, it would explain something which otherwise appears very\ndifficult to reconcile.\n\nThe 1916 agricultural tenancy may have covered both parcels of the farm as\na whole at that time. But if part of that holding subsequently ceased to be\npart of the agricultural tenancy because of my family's interest in the\nparcel A crystallising into our freehold of parcel A, then the 1938 Western\nGround Rents acquisition and the *1939 revised agricultural tenancy* would\nnot necessarily concern our farmhouse land. Despite decades of it being\ntreated as though it did and our occupancy being allegedly permissive,\nwhich is a narrative forced upon us to believe, when it most likely wasn't\nthe case. And why my nan rejected the premis and my dad too. Until their\ndying breaths. I inherit this interest in this land parcel A as heir and\nsuccessor.\n\nThat is why the 1939 plan was so important and helpful.\nThe point I would particularly like you to confirm\n\n*When you look at the actual 1939 Western Ground Rents revised tenancy and\nits plan, I presume you see the same thing I see?*\n\nMy reading is that the plan depicts *Parcel B, the eastern agricultural\nland, but does not depict or include Parcel A containing the farmhouse and\nthe land immediately associated with it.*\n\nIf that is what the plan shows, I would be very grateful if you could\nsimply confirm that.\n\nIf I am wrong, I would equally value you telling me that I am wrong and,\nideally, pointing me to the feature of the plan or accompanying document\nwhich demonstrates that.\n\nI am not asking you to determine what that means in law. Only whether *we\nare looking at the same physical information in the same historical\ndocument*.\n\nThat distinction is crucial because I am increasingly concerned that the\nlater history may have proceeded on the assumption that there was only one\nundivided parcel, when the contemporary records may actually distinguish\ntwo different interests.\nI would like to do the same exercise with the other records\n\nYour response itself says:\n\n“With all historical research of this nature, it is necessary to piece\ntogether information from surviving records that have been deposited with\nus.”\n\nThat is precisely what I am now trying to do.\n\nI understand the scientific process demands you look at the evidence and\ntell what it tells. But I've done that, I'm making my case. And I'm\nactually drawing the conclusion South Wales might be hexed under a spell\nnot seeing what I see. We also have hallucination with AI which is why I\nask for this specific clarification of the evidence you hold against my\ninterpretation of it.\n\nBecause in one hand I have the narrative, from court documents and news\narticles saying we were squatters. In the other hand I have credible\nevidence we had no issue relinquishing their parcel. The problem was all\nwith us on our parcel. And Western Ground Rents and BP don't appear to ever\nhad our parcel to be able to assert we were on it permissively. And the\n1982 registration of their parcel in their name, is paradoxically based on\nan alledged no contest our  occupancy was permissive. When its all we've\ndone since the 40's is challenge it. Almost a century.\n\nI would therefore be grateful if, where reasonably possible, you could look\nat the relevant surviving records and tell me whether the documentary\nevidence supports, contradicts, or simply does not establish the following:\n\n*1. 1916*\n\nI think the 1916 agricultural tenancy appears to encompass the whole farm\nas it then stood. Weather it was 2 seperate parcels then I don't know.\n\n*2. 1877 / 1928*\n\nDo the surviving Thomas/Williams/quarrying records support or contradict\nthe proposition that the farmhouse parcel was treated differently from the\neastern agricultural land, and that the relevant quarrying arrangement had\nan effect on the family's interest in that land by 1928?\n\n*3. 1938*\n\nDoes the Western Ground Rents conveyance or associated material show that\nWGR acquired the farmhouse/house plot itself, or does it appear to concern\nonly the agricultural interest which subsequently appears in the 1939\ntenancy?\n\n*4. 1939*\n\nDoes the revised WGR tenancy plan contain only the eastern agricultural\nparcel, excluding the farmhouse and its immediate land?\n\nThis is the point on which I would particularly appreciate a direct\nconfirmation or correction.\n\n*5. 1955 / 1962 / 1974*\n\nDo the surviving records contain any express documentary act which actually\ntransferred, extinguished or otherwise conclusively disposed of the\nfamily's claimed interest in the farmhouse parcel?\n\nI am deliberately not asking you to determine the legal effect of those\nevents. I am asking whether such an express documentary act appears in the\nrecords.\n\n*6. Later title history*\n\nDo the surviving Glamorgan Archives records contain documentary evidence\nshowing how the farmhouse parcel itself passed from the earlier family\ninterest into Western Ground Rents, BP or another owner before the 1982/83\nregistration?\n\nOr is that documentary chain simply not present in the surviving archive?\nI would genuinely welcome correction\n\nI want to emphasise this because I do not want this correspondence to\nbecome an exercise in asking the Archive to validate my theory.\n\nIf I have misunderstood the records, *please tell me plainly*.\n\nIf the records support what I am seeing, please tell me that plainly too.\n\nAnd if the surviving material cannot establish the point either way, that\nis also a useful and perfectly acceptable answer.\n\nSomething as simple as:\n\n*Supported by the surviving record*\n*Not supported / contradicted by the surviving record*\n*Cannot be determined from the surviving record*\n\nwould be enormously helpful to me, together with the relevant reference\nwhere possible.\n\nI am particularly keen to establish this because the research has already\ndemonstrated the value of going back to the underlying documents rather\nthan relying upon later descriptions of them. The 1877 material is a good\nexample: what initially appeared to be an inconsistency has been capable of\nbeing reconsidered once the underlying research and records were examined.\n\nThat has made me realise that I need to make sure that I am not making the\nsame mistake in reverse.\n\nI do not want to build an elaborate theory around a document which I have\nsimply misunderstood.\nI am not asking the Archive to become a party to the dispute\n\nI completely understand the distinction between an archive holding a record\nand a court or Land Registry determining legal title.\n\nI am not asking Glamorgan Archives to adjudicate the dispute, give me legal\nadvice, determine ownership, or take sides against any present landowner or\npublic authority.\n\nI am asking for something considerably narrower:\n\n*I want to know whether the historical documentary evidence held by the\nArchive actually shows what I think it shows.*\n\nThat seems to me to be a legitimate research question for an archive\nservice, particularly where the answer can be expressed simply by reference\nto what is physically depicted or expressly recorded in the documents.\n\nI also appreciate that the statutory FOI duty itself does not necessarily\nrequire an archive to create a new interpretation of information merely\nbecause a requester asks for one. I am not trying to turn this into such a\ndemand. I am asking for professional assistance and dialogue in\nunderstanding the historical material, which seems consistent with\nGlamorgan Archives' own published access principles concerning open two-way\ncommunication, active participation by users and responsiveness to the\ncommunity it serves. The wider Archive Service Accreditation framework\nlikewise recognises access and engagement with communities as a core part\nof the function of an archive service.\n\nI think that distinction is important.\nWhy this matters to me\n\nI am trying to establish what actually happened to my late grandmother and\nfather's claimed ownership of their home and land.\n\nMy family maintained that claim for decades. The claim was contested. The\nmatter eventually resulted in the loss of possession and the subsequent\ndemolition of the farmhouse.\n\nI completed 22 years of military service in 2024, leaving my career with\nhonour. I am now approaching this as a researcher trying to establish the\ndocumentary truth of a family and community history.\n\nI am not asking anyone to believe my family merely because it is our family\nhistory.\n\nQuite the opposite.\n\n*I want the records to decide what can and cannot properly be said.*\n\nThat is why I would value an open exchange with the people who hold those\nrecords.\n\nIf you look at the 1939 plan and say, “No, Sion, I don't think it excludes\nthe farmhouse parcel, and this is why,” I would consider that extremely\nuseful.\n\nIf you say, “Yes, I can see exactly what you are seeing — the plan depicts\nthe eastern agricultural land and does not include the farmhouse parcel,”\nthat is equally important.\n\nAnd if the surviving records simply do not allow the point to be\ndetermined, I would rather have that stated clearly than have either of us\ninfer something which the evidence cannot sustain.\n\nI think that is the most constructive way for us to proceed.\n\nThere is a shared interest here in getting the history right. These are\nrecords of the community in which we all live, and I think their greatest\nvalue is realised when the surviving evidence can be examined openly,\ncritically and collaboratively.\n\nI would therefore be very grateful if you could engage with the question at\nthat documentary level and tell me, as plainly as possible, *whether you\nsee what I see*.\n\nThank you again for all your assistance so far. I genuinely appreciate it.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\ngreathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOn Thu, 24 Sept 2026, 16:56 Glamro / Swyddfa Cofnodion Morgannwg, <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> *Ref: 2026/4097*\n>\n>\n>\n> Dear Sion Buckler,\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your email received into our enquiries system 8th\n> September.

This means that we may be unable to provide access to this information via a Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) request.\n\nStatutory Routes of Access to information held on Public Registers\n\nThe Land Registration Act 2002 is the principal legislation governing land registration in England and Wales. It sets out provisions for keeping a register of title to land and property, and in accordance with Section 66 & 67 of the Land Registration Act, it is a requirement that the Chief Land Registrar makes this information (including any documents held on the register of title) available for public inspection.\n\nHow to access information held on our Registers\n\nThe information you have requested is available to access under our statutory protocol under section 66 & 67 of the Land Registration Act 2002.\n\nSearch for Land and Property\n\nPlease visit our website for further information about our registers:\n\nwww.gov.uk/get-information-about-property-and-land<http://www.gov.uk/get-information-about-property-and-land>\n\nOfficial Copies\n\nFor information about how to apply for official copies of documents held in relation to registered titles, and information about the types of documents available, please refer to practice guide 11:\n\nwww.gov.uk/government/publications/inspection-and-application-for-official-copies/practice-guide-11-inspection-and-application-for-official-copies<http://www.gov.uk/government/publications/inspection-and-application-for-official-copies/practice-guide-11-inspection-and-application-for-official-copies>\n\nIndex of proprietors’ names\n\nUnder rule 11 of the Land Registration Rules 2003 the registrar is required to keep an index of proprietors’ names which shows for each individual register the proprietor of the registered estate and the proprietor of any registered charge together with the title number.

This is defined in the Land Registration Act 2002.\n\nParagraph 5 of Schedule 2 Part 1 of the Data Protection Act 2018 provides the following exemption from the specified UK GDPR provisions:\n\n“The listed UK GDPR provisions do not apply to personal data consisting of information that the controller is obliged by an enactment to make available to the public, to the extent that the application of those provisions would prevent the controller from complying with that obligation.”\n\nThe Land Registration Act 2002 is the principal legislation governing land registration in England and Wales. It sets out provisions for the keeping of a register of title to land and requirements for its administration by HM Land Registry under a Chief Land Registrar.\n\nThe Chief Land Registrar is required by the Land Registration Act 2002 and to make register information (including any documents held on the register of title) available to the public, therefore the following data protection provisions do not apply:\n\n\n  *   the requirement to provide ‘privacy notices’ to individuals\n  *   the requirement to provide personal data in response to subject access requests\n  *   the requirement to rectification\n  *   the requirement to comply with requests to erasure (right to be ‘forgotten’)\n  *   most of the principles of UK GDPR\n\n\nPlease visit our website for further information about our registers:\n\nwww.gov.uk/get-information-about-property-and-land<https://www.gov.uk/get-information-about-property-and-land>\n\nFor further information in relation to your rights and how HMLR processes personal data please refer to our Personal Information Charter:\n\nwww.gov.uk/government/organisations/land-registry/about/personal-information-charter<http://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/land-registry/about/personal-information-charter>\n\n\n\n\nHM Land Registry’s purpose is to protect your land ownership and provide services and data that underpin an efficient and informed property market.

That was wrong.\nHM Land Registry’s own letter of 23 March 2026 (Lisa Griffiths, ref\nN610CGV) separates the two acts.\n1982–83 was first registration of two live titles, not a merger.\n30 November 1982: application to first-register WA231076. The Court of\nAppeal later treated BP Properties Ltd as registered proprietors of “the\nfarm” from November 1982.\n23 February 1983: application to first-register a second title, WA240304.\n26 March 1983: Mary Williams died. On the family’s case, notice of those\napplications did not reach us until after her death, while the family was\nin mourning. She had no window in which to object. The family was not in a\nposition to use any window that arrived after that.\nThose two titles remained separate through first instance.\n24 July 1986: Hollis J. Both titles were still live. The judgment language\ntreats Great House Farm as one holding. It had not been one holding on the\nregister. On the family’s case it had not been one holding since the 1877\nsplit: Parcel A (house, buildings, garden/yard and about 10 acres, the\nThomas/Williams line) and Parcel B (the eastern fields retained by Bute and\nlater WGR/BP).\n2 February 1987: application to amalgamate the two titles. WA240304 was\nthen closed and registration continued under WA231076. That is the merge.\nIt was made after the 1986 ruling and before the Court of Appeal gave\njudgment on 31 July 1987.\nSo 1983 is silent first registration of a second title while Mary was still\nin Parcel A, or had only just died. 1987 is the administrative merger,\ncarried out while the appeal was still open.\nThis was not a dispute about a single land parcel that BP already owned.\nMary was on Parcel A, which the family says she owned, with occupation on\nthat house parcel running in the family from at least 1667. BP, and WGR\nbefore it from 1949, were the neighbouring interest on Parcel B. From 1949\nonwards the family’s case is that those neighbours ran a decades-long\nseries of tenancy offers, “whole farm” wording, possession orders and the\n1974 letters to make her occupation of her own parcel look permissive, and\nto make both parcels look like one estate they had acquired. They never\nproduced a conveyance of Parcel A. What they had was an unfounded claim\nthat her occupancy was permissive.\nPlease treat any earlier letter from me that said the titles merged in 1983\nas corrected by this email. The dates that matter are:\n1982/83 — first registration of two titles, without the occupier being\nheard;\n24 July 1986 — first-instance judgment describing one farm while two titles\nstill stood;\n2 February 1987 — amalgamation, before the appeal ended;\n31 July 1987 — Court of Appeal.\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler\nRefs where relevant: N610CGV; 260919-6726246; titles WA231076 and WA240304.\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\ngreathousefarmwiki.wordpress.com"},{"id":"gm-1a0e10fdcfb4fd43","subject":"Automatic reply: Great House Farm / N610CGV — chase: MoJ response and HMLR first-registration file","name":"Automatic reply: Great House Farm / N610CGV — chase: MoJ response and HMLR first-registration file","date":"2026-09-27T04:11:42Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0e10fdcfb4fd43.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0e10fdcfb4fd43-automatic-reply-great-house-farm-n610cgv-chase-moj-response-and-hmlr-first-registration-file","scopeTopics":["mp"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["mp"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0e10fdcfb4fd43","direction":"received","from":"DOUGHTY, Stephen","institutions":[{"id":"mp","name":"Member of Parliament"}],"refs":["N610CGV"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0e10fdcfb4fd43.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Hello,\n\nThank you for your email.

We'll just return if/when someone overthrows this\nterrorist organisation, the British State we now seem to be harbouring on\nthe British Isles. All fear and respect for the United Kingdom government\nhas gone for our family. Few care if you now bring guns and finish the job\nof erasing us, as they have lived four decades in what is effectively the\nconcentration work-camp conditions our towns and cities have been turned\ninto.\n\nBut before our county treasure, the former courthouse manorial 10-bedroom\ncourthouse, was demolished, or looted of all our furniture from Cardiff by\nwhat appears to be SAS under cover as BP bailiffs, I do remember a\ndifferent realm from the one now blocking out the sun on the British Isles.\nA realm less demonic, on our sacred Welsh Christian stronghold, upon which\nthe suppressed history and heritage once stood: the Roman villa and\nmedieval burial site and Celtic 2,200-year-old roundhouse and monastery.\nAnd Marconi staying with us while inventing radio, or world champion boxer\nPeerless Jim Driscoll fighting his first fight in our barns. Today there is\nno history tourist-board plaque, no park-bench plaque. Just 20\ncharacterless houses, 13 of which are on our stolen occupied land.\n\nAs a bona fide, certified and experienced military commander and leader and\nwarfare professional and war veteran, who was subject of this siege on our\nland and home in 1988, I have to say it is important to call a kettle black\nand call this what it was and is. This is all synonymous with a terrorist\norganisation, network or cell, committing an act of terrorism. Establishing\na terrorist camp for its officers or PoW/hostages. Following an act of\nterrorism (my pregnant mum also thrown over our gate, into a puddle,\ncollarbone dislocated, just for seeking medicine for my father who lay in\nthe hospital bed after police left him in a cell and ignored him,\ncomplaining of a heart attack for six hours).\n\nMy family have lived as terrified hostage-like prisoners of war under the\nBritish State in Wales. Too frightened to speak up or out about any of\nthis. Since everyone who has challenged acquiescing in our own replacement\nin my family, on our land since 1667, seems to have died at very convenient\ntimings.\n\nI don't fully understand how deep this all goes. I suspect it was a\nmilitary operation disguised as a civilian action. Perhaps hybrid warfare\nannexure of our land as some of the last in Wales to fall victim to British\nState imperialsim. Our home was literally looted of our furniture from\nCardiff castle. Our lands were literally looted of medieval burials.\nIncluding roman coins and so forth. Much of which ended up in a suspicious\nfire in Neath.\n\nI have called for a public enquiry from the Senedd. But it seems the fight\nto keep burying us alive is a never ending one.\n\nI wish you all the best with the civil war you've waged on us indigenous\nBritons on our ancestral birthland. I see the British State for what it is\nnow. A terrorist organisation my countrymen will surely soon stop\nharbouring on our island.\n\nI think there's a small window of opportunity in our families case for your\nregime to even just take a break from trying to make us into striped pjamad\nhostages. And allow us to restore even parts of our dignity and minor\ngentry manorial 800 year old home and 4 century of occupancy before you\nstole and destroyed it by force.\n\nWe don't even seek to try to enjoy our language, history and herritage\nunder this terrorist anarcho tyrant ethnic cleansing demonic realm regime\nin Wales anymore. We're committed to rebuilding the replica of our former\nhome in Patagonia where our existence and culture and language and\nherritage as a race and ethnicity, isn't being actively exterminated and\nconcealed and supressed.\n\nI did my 22 years in Oath. Served in war. I'm bona fide, left my military\ncareer with full honours. I'm a warfare professional and certified and\nexperienced military commander and leader. And I can't even get back basic\nFOI's, after almost a year from many branches of your government. And I\ndon't think its all negigence or incompetence.\n\nI think there's concealment and fraud and government involvement and your\ngovernment are in dishonour and are a disgrace in this whole case and\ntreatment of my family and our home and history and herritage.\n\nI feel having brought all this to everyone's attention. Which was also very\ndifficult and sensitive to do considering nobody in my family will even\nspeak up or out about it. To be met with such negligence and incompetence\nand obtuse, hostile, unco-operative, railroading and gatekeeping and delay\nis a disgrace.\n\nThis is nothing short of a nightmare under a demonic realm in a\nconcentration work camp where we're being ethnically cleansed and ignored.\nThere is no democracy here. There is no peace here.\n\nChurch View Close Llandough was once our lands of centuries. Its been\nnothing short of a crime scene since BP arrived onto the scene in 1969.\nIt's only in these last few decades of the beautiful undisturbed centuries\nof life on our land overlooking Cardiff, WHICH WE STILL OWN, despite you\nlot illegally occupying it - its only in the last few decades we've seen\nall this ethnic cleansing British imperialism turned inwards on us.\n\nThe evidence is all in this case. The words I use to describe this are\nstrong, but are actually proportionate to what has happened in this case.\nAnd is ongoing because nothing and nobody is doing a thing to undo this\ndogs dinner of a society.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\nWilliams/Buckler Family — Great House Farm, Llandough"},{"id":"gm-1a0df1f896c4122a","subject":"Great House Farm, Llandough","name":"Great House Farm, Llandough","date":"2026-09-26T19:09:40Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0df1f896c4122a.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0d618398424383-great-house-farm-llandough","scopeTopics":["hmlr-icr"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["hmlr-icr"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0d618398424383","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"hmlr-icr","name":"HM Land Registry (Independent Complaints Reviewer)"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0df1f896c4122a.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Sirs,\n\nI am seeking an independent review of HM Land Registry's handling of my\ncomplaint concerning the historic registration of land belonging to the\nWilliams/Buckler family at Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough, Cardiff,\nand the subsequent registered title history, including WA231076, WA240304\nand the later woodland title WA735527.\n\nHM Land Registry has now replied to my MP and has maintained, in essence,\nthat it does not accept that a mistake was made.\n\nMy concern is not simply that HM Land Registry reached a conclusion with\nwhich I disagree. It is that the conclusion appears to leave fundamental\ndocumentary questions unanswered and relies heavily upon historical\nproceedings which did not determine the underlying documentary root of the\nfamily's ownership claim.\n\nI have spent approximately twenty years researching this matter and have\nassembled a substantial body of documentary, archival, court, Land Registry\nand family evidence. I am not asking ICR to determine ownership itself. I\nam asking it to review whether HM Land Registry properly investigated and\nanswered the complaint put before it, whether it addressed the evidence I\nsupplied, and whether the reasons given for its conclusion adequately\nexplain how the disputed registration was accepted and subsequently\nmaintained.\n1. The underlying family ownership claim\n\nThe family's position is that our historic Parcel A was a distinct parcel\nof land around the farmhouse and woodland and that our underlying freehold\ninterest was never lawfully extinguished.\n\nMy grandmother, Mary Williams, consistently asserted ownership of the\nfamily parcel. The documentary history presently available to me raises a\nsubstantial question as to whether Parcel A was ever conveyed to Western\nGround Rents in the manner subsequently assumed.\n\nThere is an important distinction between:\n\n   - the family-occupied Parcel A surrounding the farmhouse; and\n   - the eastern agricultural Parcel B which was the subject of the later\n   agricultural tenancy arrangements.\n\nThe 1939 revised agricultural tenancy documentation which I have located\nappears to concern Parcel B and its associated land. The accompanying plan\ndoes not appear to include the family-occupied Parcel A.\n\nThis raises a basic documentary question:\n\nWhat instrument actually conveyed Parcel A to Western Ground Rents, if it\nwas ever conveyed to them at all?\n\nI have not yet obtained a document which satisfactorily answers that\nquestion.\n2. The 1928 / 1938 / 1939 documentary sequence\n\nThe present reconstruction begins with the 1877 arrangements involving the\nMarquess of Bute and Daniel Thomas & Son and the subsequent quarrying\narrangements.\n\nMy understanding from the evidence presently assembled is that the relevant\nquarrying arrangements were completed by 1928 and that the family\nthereafter continued in occupation of Parcel A as its own land.\n\nThe later 1938 conveyancing from the Bute estate to Western Ground Rents\ntherefore requires close examination as to precisely what land was conveyed.\n\nThis is particularly important because the 1939 revised agricultural\ntenancy record naming Western Ground Rents as landlord appears, from its\nplan, to concern Parcel B rather than Parcel A.\n\nThat record was brought to my attention by the clerk for Llandough Town,\nwho directed me to the archive material shortly before his retirement\nearlier this year.\n\nIf Parcel A was not conveyed to Western Ground Rents in 1938, and was not\nincluded in the 1939 agricultural tenancy, the subsequent legal narrative\nby which the family's occupation came to be treated as permissive requires\nconsiderably more examination than HM Land Registry's present response\nappears to have given it.\n3. The successive attempts to characterise the family occupation as\npermissive\n\nThe historical evidence reveals a sequence of events which I believe needs\nto be examined as a whole rather than in isolation.\n\nThese include:\n\n*1949* — an attempted tenancy arrangement concerning Parcel B which appears\nto have sought to include my grandmother in the tenancy and thereby connect\nher occupation of Parcel A with the agricultural tenancy of Parcel B;\n\n*1951* — the disappearance of important family papers, including the\nfamily's title documentation, which my grandmother reported as stolen;\n\n*1955* — possession proceedings in which the language concerning the “whole\nfarm” requires comparison with the actual definition of the agricultural\nholding and its separate parcels. The order also expressly excluded the\n“house and garden” and referred to my grandmother's “condition and\nresistance”;\n\n*1959* — an offer of a tenancy of the farmhouse and garden, which my\ngrandmother rejected while continuing to assert an ownership claim;\n\n*1962* — a possession order concerning the farmhouse and garden, the legal\neffect and subsequent enforcement history of which require examination;\n\n*1965* — a further attempt to place “Mrs Williams” into a weekly tenancy,\nagain rejected;\n\n*1974* — an ownership action was adjourned; leave to enforce the 1962\npossession order was obtained but the warrant was not pursued; and BP\nsubsequently relied upon the two letters of 31 October 1974 as establishing\na licence relationship.\n\nThe family interpretation is that these were not independent, isolated\nevents but a succession of attempts to convert or present an allegedly\nproprietary occupation as permissive.\n\nI appreciate that this is an interpretation requiring documentary testing.\nThat is precisely why I believe HM Land Registry should have engaged with\nthe underlying documents rather than treating the later registered position\nand the 1987 Court of Appeal judgment as effectively resolving the matter.\n4. The 1987 judgment does not answer the documentary provenance question\n\nA particularly important part of my complaint concerns the way HM Land\nRegistry has relied upon *BP Properties Ltd v Buckler* [1987] EWCA Civ 2.\n\nI do not dispute that this was an important Court of Appeal decision.\n\nHowever, the case concerned the adverse-possession and possession issues\nconcerning the farmhouse and garden. The Court considered the\nregistered/paper-title position relied upon by BP, the previous possession\nproceedings and the legal effect of the 1974 letters upon the character of\nMrs Buckler's occupation.\n\nThe judgment itself records that Mary Williams had asserted that she had a\ntitle to Great House Farm through her grandfather and believed that\ndocuments existed establishing that title, but that such documents were not\nproduced.\n\nThe point is therefore not that the Court of Appeal “never touched title”.\nIt plainly considered BP's registered/paper-title position.\n\nThe point is narrower and, in my view, fundamental:\n\nThe 1987 judgment is not itself the conveyance, plan, root deed or other\ndocumentary instrument establishing how the woodland and the family's\nhistoric Parcel A entered BP's registered title.\n\nNor did it adjudicate the validity of Forest of Cardiff's separate 1994\nacquisition of the woodland.\n\nI am concerned that HM Land Registry's present response treats the 1987\njudgment as though it answers a documentary provenance question which it\ndid not determine.\n5. The 1969 conveyance and 1971 abstract\n\nHM Land Registry has also told me that BP supplied a title chain extending\nback to 1969.\n\nThat raises another substantial documentary issue.\n\nThere were only thirteen years between the 1969 conveyance and BP's first\nregistration in 1982.\n\nThe 1969 conveyance from Western Ground Rents to BP Pension Trust therefore\nrequires examination as to exactly what proprietary interest was being\nconveyed.\n\nI understand the later title documentation to recite the 1969 conveyance as\na root document, while the 1971 abstract refers to the 1962 possession\norder and an OS plan.\n\nIf the underlying title to Parcel A was never conveyed to Western Ground\nRents, the critical question is how an asserted interest arising from\npossession proceedings could subsequently be treated as though it were\ndocumentary title to the parcel itself.\n\nThe 1971 abstract is therefore particularly important.\n\nHM Land Registry's own correspondence has recorded that such an abstract\nwas lodged. The 30 July 2026 schedule of surviving first-registration\ndocuments does not identify the 31 December 1969 conveyance itself, nor\ndoes it resolve the evidential gap concerning the 1971 abstract.\n\nI am continuing to pursue those underlying records.\n6. The 1982–83 registrations\n\nMy principal concern is that BP may have registered not the family's actual\nhistoric Parcel A, supported by a lawful root title, but a later\nconstructed or “synthetic” parcel derived from the succession of\npossession, tenancy and licence documents which had been used to\ncharacterise the family occupation as permissive.\n\nI use “synthetic parcel” as a description of the issue I am investigating,\nnot as a statement that this is already legally established.\n\nThe essential question is:\n\nWhat precise land did BP apply to register in 1982–83, what documentary\ninstrument entitled BP to register that land, and did that land correspond\nto the land actually conveyed to BP's predecessors?\n\nThe later amalgamation of the BP titles is also significant because what\nmay have originated as separate parcels or interests appears subsequently\nto have been brought together within the registered estate.\n\nIt is necessary to establish whether that process merely recorded an\nexisting lawful title or whether it caused an underlying proprietary\nboundary to disappear within a later registered estate.\n7. HM Land Registry's response\n\nHM Land Registry has now maintained that it was correct to register the\nland and has relied, in part, upon the 1987 judgment.\n\nI respectfully submit that this does not answer the complaint.\n\nAn administrative conclusion that a registration was “correct” cannot\nitself reconstruct a missing conveyance, establish the precise boundary of\nland conveyed decades earlier, or demonstrate that a later registered\nproprietor had documentary title to a distinct parcel where the underlying\nconveyancing remains disputed.\n\nNor does the existence of the 1987 judgment establish the documentary\nprovenance of WA735527 or the validity of the separate 1994 transfer to\nForest of Cardiff.\n\nI am particularly concerned that HM Land Registry appears to regard its\nreliance upon the 1987 judgment as effectively validating the 1982–83\nregistration, when the registration itself pre-dated the judgment.\n\nThe chronology matters.\n\nThe registration came first.\n\nThe litigation came afterwards.\n\nI therefore cannot see how a later judgment concerning possession and\nadverse possession can, without further analysis, resolve whether the\nearlier registration accurately represented the documentary title existing\nat the date of registration.\n8. Notification and my grandmother's death\n\nAnother issue which requires consideration is notification.\n\nTo my knowledge, the family was not notified that BP had applied to\nregister the relevant land in 1982.\n\nMy grandmother died on 14 March 1983, shortly after the first registration\nand within the period in which the registration would have been capable of\nbeing challenged had she known of it.\n\nShe had spent decades rejecting attempts to characterise her occupation as\npermissive and consistently maintaining an ownership claim.\n\nThe fact that she died shortly after the registration is not itself proof\nof wrongdoing. It is, however, a material chronological fact when\nconsidering whether she had a meaningful opportunity to challenge the\nregistration and whether HM Land Registry appropriately considered the\nnotification history.\n\nI ask the ICR to consider whether HM Land Registry has adequately addressed:\n\n   - what notice was given of the 1982 application;\n   - to whom it was given;\n   - what information was supplied to the persons potentially affected;\n   - whether any competing ownership claim was disclosed by the applicant;\n   - and what records exist showing how HM Land Registry assessed those\n   matters.\n\n9. Possible fraud, concealment and institutional involvement\n\nThrough my research I have also identified matters which I consider may\nwarrant investigation for possible fraud, deliberate concealment,\nmisrepresentation, mistake and institutional involvement.\n\nI want to be precise about this.\n\nI am not asking the ICR to find that fraud occurred.\n\nI am asking the ICR to consider whether HM Land Registry adequately\ninvestigated evidence raising those questions, particularly where the\nevidence concerns missing historic documents, the distinction between\nParcel A and Parcel B, the provenance of the 1969 title, the 1971 abstract,\nthe 1982–83 registrations and the subsequent amalgamation of titles.\n\nI have deliberately distinguished established documentary facts from\nmatters which remain hypotheses requiring investigation.\n\nThere are also serious questions concerning the destruction or absence of\nhistorical records and the later treatment of the land. Those matters are\nbeing pursued through separate archival and documentary channels.\n10. The human and public-interest dimension\n\nThis is not merely an abstract registration dispute.\n\nMy grandmother was a disabled widow and amputee who maintained an ownership\nclaim to the family land through decades of litigation and repeated\nattempts to characterise her occupation as permissive.\n\nThe family was ultimately removed from the property in 1988. The historic\nfarmhouse, which had been our family home and which we believe had\nsignificant architectural and historic importance, was subsequently\ndemolished.\n\nI was a child when we were removed.\n\nFamily possessions and historic material were lost or dispersed, while the\nland was subsequently developed and altered.\n\nThe family's connection with the site is recorded as extending back to the\nseventeenth century, and I was born at Great House Farm.\n\nThere are also wider heritage and archaeological questions concerning the\nsite and its subsequent development, which I am investigating separately.\n\nI mention these matters because they explain why I have continued the\ninvestigation for approximately twenty years and why the accuracy of the\nunderlying land record matters so profoundly to my family.\n\nMy professional background is in military cyber and electronic warfare, and\nmuch of my research has involved reconstructing fragmented documentary\nhistories and identifying discrepancies between records. I have approached\nthis as an evidential investigation rather than simply as a family\ngrievance.\n11. Why I am approaching the ICR\n\nI therefore ask the ICR to review HM Land Registry's handling of my\ncomplaint and, in particular, whether it:\n\n   1.\n\n   adequately investigated the distinction between historic Parcel A and\n   Parcel B;\n   2.\n\n   adequately considered the 1938 conveyance and 1939 revised tenancy plan;\n   3.\n\n   adequately addressed the documentary provenance of the 1969 conveyance\n   and the 1971 abstract;\n   4.\n\n   adequately examined the precise land comprised in the 1982–83\n   registration applications;\n   5.\n\n   relied upon the 1987 *BP v Buckler* judgment for a proposition which the\n   judgment itself did not determine;\n   6.\n\n   adequately considered the chronology whereby the 1982–83 registration\n   preceded the 1987 judgment;\n   7.\n\n   adequately investigated the notification given to persons asserting\n   ownership of the land;\n   8.\n\n   adequately addressed the missing or unavailable historic documents and\n   the evidential gaps I have identified;\n   9.\n\n   adequately considered the evidence I supplied rather than simply\n   reaffirming the existing registered position; and\n   10.\n\n   provided reasons sufficient to explain why, notwithstanding those\n   unresolved documentary questions, HM Land Registry considers that no\n   mistake or registration error occurred.\n\nI am not asking the ICR to adjudicate the family's ultimate title claim.\n\nI am asking for an independent examination of whether HM Land Registry's\ninvestigation and reasoning were adequate, proportionate and properly\nresponsive to the evidence and issues actually raised.\n12. Documents and evidence\n\nI can provide the relevant correspondence with HM Land Registry, the\nresponse to my MP, registration material, historical conveyancing, court\nrecords, archival plans, family evidence and other documents relied upon in\nmy complaint.\n\nI also maintain a detailed chronology of the matter, including:\n\n1916 — agricultural tenancy;\n\n1928 — completion of the relevant quarrying arrangements;\n\n1938 — Bute / Western Ground Rents conveyancing;\n\n1939 — revised agricultural tenancy and plan;\n\n1949 — tenancy attempt;\n\n1951 — missing/stolen title documentation issue;\n\n1955 — possession proceedings;\n\n1959 — farmhouse and garden tenancy offer;\n\n1962 — possession order;\n\n1965 — further tenancy attempt;\n\n1969 — Western Ground Rents → BP Pension Trust conveyance;\n\n1971 — abstract and plan material;\n\n1974 — ownership proceedings, possession enforcement history and licence\nletters;\n\n1975 — BP Pension Trust → BP Properties transfer;\n\n1982 — first registration;\n\n1983 — subsequent registration and title dealings;\n\n1987 — *BP Properties Ltd v Buckler* Court of Appeal judgment;\n\n1988 — final removal from the farmhouse and demolition; and\n\n1994 — subsequent acquisition of the woodland by Forest of Cardiff.\n\nThe chronology is significant because it demonstrates why I do not consider\nthe 1987 judgment, standing alone, capable of answering the earlier\nregistration question.\n13. What I am asking for\n\nI respectfully ask the ICR to accept this as a request for independent\nreview of HM Land Registry's handling of the complaint.\n\nIn particular, I ask that the reviewer consider whether HM Land Registry\nhas actually answered the documentary questions raised, rather than merely\nreaffirming the registered position.\n\nI would also ask that the underlying Land Registry records relevant to the\n1982–83 registration, notification, supporting title documents, plans, the\n1969 conveyance and the 1971 abstract be considered where they remain\navailable.\n\nI am not seeking a finding against individual Land Registry staff.\n\nI am seeking an independent assessment of whether the institution's\nhandling of this matter has been adequate and whether the reasons given for\nrefusing to recognise a possible mistake are properly supported by the\nunderlying record.\n\nThe issue remains live because the disputed land is now being dealt with\nthrough subsequent titles and, in the case of the woodland, is presently\nsubject to a proposed disposal by Forest of Cardiff.\n\nI therefore respectfully ask the ICR to consider this matter on the basis\nof the documentary chronology and evidence rather than treating the\nexistence of the current register as dispositive of the historical question.\n\nI am willing to provide a structured evidence bundle and chronology to\nassist the review.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a0d677d2f33f0ab","subject":"Re: Freedom of Information Request: Reference CAS-347296-M0V4Y1 CRM:007302479","name":"Re: Freedom of Information Request: Reference CAS-347296-M0V4Y1 CRM:007302479","date":"2026-09-25T02:49:31Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0d677d2f33f0ab.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0cf0a5c1c2a0a0-freedom-of-information-request-reference-cas-347296-m0v4y1-crm-007302479","scopeTopics":["tna"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["tna"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0cf0a5c1c2a0a0","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"tna","name":"The National Archives"}],"refs":["CAS-347296"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0d677d2f33f0ab.json","textStatus":"available","text":"FOI Team,\n\nI write in response to your disclosure dated 23 September 2026 concerning\nmy Freedom of Information request regarding Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr and\nrecords relating to BP Properties Ltd v Buckler.\n\nI appreciate the additional catalogue references and the release\ninformation provided. However, your response also identifies a number of\nmatters concerning the scope, timing and methodology of the searches\nundertaken which require clarification.\n\nPlease therefore treat this email as a *formal request for internal review*,\nas well as a request for clarification of the matters set out below.\n1. Physical accession/transfer of YHL/PO/JO/10/11/2536\n\nYour response states that:\n\n“The series that this record formed part of were released on our catalogue\non Discovery on 20th May 2026.”\n\nYou also state that TNA *holds transfer paperwork* for:\n\n*YHL/PO/JO/10/11/2536 – Judicial Papers A-C 1-63*\n\nPlease therefore confirm, insofar as the information is recorded in TNA's\ntransfer/accession records:\n\n   - the date on which the physical records comprising YHL/PO/JO/10/11/2536\n   were transferred into the custody of The National Archives;\n   - the accession/transfer reference associated with that transfer, if\n   recorded;\n   - whether the transfer paperwork identifies the transferring body or\n   institution;\n   - whether the physical records were already in TNA's custody during my\n   earlier enquiries in August 2026, notwithstanding that their catalogue\n   description was only released on Discovery on 20 May 2026; and\n   - whether the *20 May 2026* date refers solely to publication/release of\n   catalogue metadata on Discovery, rather than the date on which the physical\n   records entered TNA custody.\n\nI am particularly seeking to distinguish *physical custody/accession*\nfrom *catalogue\npublication*, as these are not necessarily the same event.\n2. Scope and methodology of the initial search\n\nYour response states:\n\n“The initial response from our records enquiries team looked for the four\nterms (‘Great House Farm’, ‘Ty Mawr’, ‘Llandough’ or ‘Cedfin’) within the\nPRO and RW series and did not find any relevant information.”\n\nMy original request, however, expressly identified a number of alternative\nsearch routes, including:\n\n   - Western Ground Rents Ltd;\n   - BP Pension Trust Ltd;\n   - BP Properties Ltd;\n   - Mountjoy Ltd;\n   - BP Properties Ltd v Buckler;\n   - the 1982–1983 registration;\n   - the 1980–1988 government/public campaign;\n   - the 1988 eviction and demolition;\n   - Cadw and central-government communications;\n   - ECHR Application 14464/88;\n   - transfer, destruction or disposal records; and\n   - HMC9/311 and related archival references.\n\nYour present response confirms that a wider catalogue search was\nsubsequently undertaken and that searching *BP Properties Ltd* produced the\nHouse of Lords judicial record.\n\nPlease therefore clarify:\n\n   - whether the *initial search* was in fact limited to the four\n   property/location terms and the PRO/RW series stated in your response;\n   - why the named corporate litigant *BP Properties Ltd*, expressly\n   identified in my request, was not included in that initial search;\n   - whether any search log, enquiry record, search worksheet or other\n   recorded audit trail exists showing the terms, series and dates searched at\n   each stage; and\n   - whether the later wider search was materially different from the\n   initial search in a way that explains why the judicial record was not\n   identified earlier.\n\nI recognise that TNA cannot necessarily undertake an unlimited historical\nresearch exercise. My question here is narrower: *what searches were\nactually undertaken, when, and against which terms/series?*\n3. Search undertaken after 20 May 2026\n\nYour response states that the relevant parliamentary series had been\nreleased onto Discovery on *20 May 2026*, yet the subsequent correspondence\nrecords a negative result until the search parameters were expanded to\ninclude the named legal/corporate party.\n\nPlease explain, insofar as this is recorded:\n\n   - whether any searches of Discovery or relevant TNA catalogue data\n   concerning this matter were conducted between *20 May 2026 and 13 August\n   2026*;\n   - if so, whether those searches included “BP Properties Ltd” or the case\n   title *BP Properties Ltd v Buckler*; and\n   - if no such search was undertaken before 13 August 2026, please confirm\n   that fact.\n\nThis is important because the chronology appears to be:\n\n*20 May 2026 – catalogue release of the relevant series*\n*earlier enquiries – negative result*\n*13 August 2026 – explicit instruction to search the named corporate/legal\nparty*\n*subsequent wider search – judicial record identified*\n\nI am seeking to establish the documentary search history accurately, rather\nthan infer the reason for the earlier negative result.\n4. Transfer, retention, destruction or disposal records\n\nYour response states that TNA holds transfer paperwork for\nYHL/PO/JO/10/11/2536 and has disclosed three documents concerning its\nrelease/manifest arrangements.\n\nPlease confirm whether those records contain, or whether TNA otherwise\nholds, information showing:\n\n   - the date of transfer or accession;\n   - the previous custody/location of the records;\n   - whether the records were transferred directly from the Parliamentary\n   Archives or another repository;\n   - whether any associated material was excluded, withheld, destroyed,\n   disposed of or retained elsewhere; and\n   - whether the transfer documentation identifies any earlier repository\n   or custodial history.\n\nI am not asking TNA to reconstruct the contents of uncatalogued material. I\nam asking what *recorded provenance and custody information* TNA holds\nconcerning the records now identified.\n\nI would also take this opportunity to ask again, if you hold any more\ninformation I've asked for, not disclosed to me, please disclose in your\nnext reply. This case went before ECHR (Buckler vs United Kingdom 1989) and\ntheir window to reopen that ruling based on such matters as concealment, is\nas I understand, 6 months. It would be a grave injustice to deny or delay\nor tortioustly interfere with our quest for justice, anymore than has\nalready been the case for my heavily dispositioned family by this whole\nalready very prolonged, very  traumatising matter.\n5. Internal-review outcome\n\nPlease review the original response in light of the above and confirm\nwhether TNA considers that the searches undertaken adequately addressed the\nscope of my original request.\n\nWhere TNA considers that information is not held, please distinguish where\npossible between:\n\n*(a)* information establishing that no such records were ever transferred\nto TNA;\n*(b)* information showing that records were transferred elsewhere;\n*(c)* information showing that records were destroyed/disposed of; and\n*(d)* the absence of a discoverable catalogue reference or search hit.\n\nThese are materially different conclusions for the purposes of my\ndocumentary research.\n\nI would be grateful for the internal-review response within 14 working days.\n\nRegards,\n\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber/ Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Wed, 23 Sept 2026, 17:12 FOI Requests, <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Ret'd Sergeant Sion Buckler,\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your enquiry in which you asked for the information\n> concerning the existence, provenance, transfer, retention, destruction or\n> disposal of records relating to Ty Mawr / Great House Farm.\n>\n>\n>\n> Your request has been handled under the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act\n> 2000.

I specifically asked The National Archives to identify recorded\n> information concerning the existence, transfer, retention, destruction,\n> disposal or absence of records, including records that might not be\n> catalogued under the property's later or local names.*\n>\n>\n>\n> *Your response confirms only that you searched the PRO and RW series\n> using:*\n>\n>\n>\n> *“Great House Farm” OR “Ty Mawr” OR Llandough OR Cedfin*\n>\n>\n>\n> *combined with “Glamorgan”, and that this produced no catalogue results.*\n>\n>\n>\n> *You also correctly state that Discovery searches catalogue titles and\n> descriptions rather than the contents of records.

Please find below answers to your questions in turn.  Please note that prices quoted are without VAT based on the fact that you are in Patagonia.\n\n**26 May 2026 (2026/2370)**\n1. 1974 demolition petition, Llandough juxta Penarth — ref or not held.\nThere is not a petition held within our collection. You would need to know who the petition was submitted to in order to search for any further reference to it.  If it was submitted to the planning authority there may be mention in the Planning Committee minutes and reports – see point 6 below.\n\n**29 May 2026 FOIA/EIR (2026/2372)**\n\n2. Williams/Buckler as owners, tenants, or reporters of the 1880 floor discovery.\nOne source of information about ownership would be rate books. UC/73/1 is a rate book for 1882 – this is the nearest we have to 1880.  A search of this (and later volumes UC/73/1-5 covers 1882-1902 and then UDPE/T/30 and UDPE/T/32 cover dates after 1900) could be undertaken by staff on your behalf at a charge of £50 which would include copies of relevant entries.\n\n3. Gaps / missing volumes / withdrawals 1950–1989.\nWe have never had a full set of records that would show the full tenancy/ownership history of Great House / Ty Mawr Farm. With all historical research of this nature, it is necessary to piece together information from surviving records that have been deposited with us.  There are not any records that have been withdrawn from our collections that would have provided additional information to this search for the period 1950-1989.\n\n4. Why the fabric was not scheduled before 1988 (or “Cadw holds this; we hold nothing”).\nNot held in our collections – suggest contacting Cadw and the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales.\n\n5. Internal preservation assessments.\nAs above - suggest contacting Cadw and the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales.\n\n6. Planning files for this acreage / demolition / Church View Close — file refs, not class names.\nWe do not hold planning files (it is possible some files may still be held by the Vale of Glamorgan Council Planning Department), but we do hold copies of the Planning Committee minutes and reports.  Mary Buckler started looking at the Planning Committee minutes and reports on her last visit to the searchroom on 13th August.  The document references to start with for these would be DCVG/C/4/36/76-77 and DCVG/C/4/36/94 these are for the planning applications 1989/01396/OUT and 1992/00671/RES.  It is possible that the minutes may make reference to any earlier applications or discussions.  A search of these records and anything else that they lead to could be carried out by staff at a charge of £50 to include copies of any relevant pages found.\n\n7. When the known archaeology was raised in planning.\nIf any record of this is in our collections it would appear in the Planning Committee records described above in point 6.\n\n8. EIAs / HER / developer briefs 1980–1990.\nThe HER for Wales is searchable via the Heneb website: Historic Environment Records (HER) - Heneb<https://heneb.org.uk/historic-environment-records-her/>.  You could also contact the Glamorgan Gwent Archaeological Trust to see if they have any relevant information.\n\n**27 July / 5 August 2026 (2026/3309)**\n9. DB/E/1–2 Stewart survey / Cedfin.\nThis was consulted and photographed by Mary Buckler in our public searchroom.  If you would like to receive copies of the pages relating to Ty Mawr this would be two images (one from DB/E/1 the survey and one from DB/E/2 the terrier).  Total cost £17 (£13 for the first image in the order and £4 for the next image).\n\n10. Lambert Williams–Bute agreements 1818–1835 (not the D160 maps already seen).\nNot held. Possibly at the National Library of Wales?\n\n11. Material related to NLW D219.\nNot held – this is a National Library of Wales reference: Llandough manorial leases and agreements, - National Library of Wales Archives and Manuscripts<https://archives.library.wales/index.php/llandough-manorial-leases-and-agreements> You should contact the NLW for access or copies.\n\n12. D153/4–8 1876 limeworks severance — not seen.\nNot held – this is a National Library of Wales reference: Deeds relating to premises in p. Llandough, co. Glam., comprising a dwelling house adjoining the churchyard, 1811 (D153/1-2), land (19 ..., - National Library of Wales Archives and Manuscripts<https://archives.library.wales/index.php/deeds-relating-to-premises-in-p-llandough-co-glam-comprising-dwelling-house-adjoining-churchyard-1811-d153-1-2-land-19>.  You should contact the NLW for access or copies.\n\n13. DXJF/64/27–32 full sketch bundle — notes seen; confirm sketches and refs.\nWe believe that the specific references within the bundle 27-32 that would be of interest to you are items DXJF/64/30-31: sketch of former layout of part of village of Llandough-juxta-Penarth by Mrs. Nancy Buckler of great house farm, Llandough, with notes c1950 [1 card, 1 paper]. Is that what you have already seen?  Other items in the bundle do not relate to Llandough.\n\n14. DCOWHS on Buckler of Penarth (not DCO/WHS/2).\nDCOWHS/2 is the only part of the DCOWHS (Cowbridge and District Local History Society) that relates to Buckler of Penarth. No other records held.\n\n15. Exact ref of the Nov 1877 counterpart already photographed; separate July 1877 counterpart?\nI think the items described below have been discussed previously – are these what you are seeking?  Please confirm and we can provide a quote for producing copies if required.\n\nDocument reference\n\n  *   DBDT/1/3\nTitle\n\n  *   Adamsdown Square leases from the trustees of the will of the late Marquess of Bute<https://glamorgan.epexio.com/en/records/DBDT/1-110/1>.

Cardiff RDC records for this farm.\nNo records found. The area was not covered by Cardiff Rural District Council but rather Penarth Urban District Council.\n\n17. DRA 418–420 / DRA 5/31 if this site.\nNeither of these are complete document references from our collection.  Perhaps you could check these references or let us know what you think they should be and we will be happy to search our catalogue.\n\n18. UDPE/S/1/68.\nThis was viewed by Mary Buckler on 6th August and is a set of plans for a pair of semi-detached houses on the road between Dinas Powys and Llandough.

Sections 194 and 195 of the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2023 require the Welsh Ministers to maintain publicly accessible Historic Environment\n Records, including information concerning archaeological investigations and their findings.\nI therefore ask that this request be considered under any applicable statutory information-access regime, including the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 insofar as Heneb considers that it falls within their scope.\nIf Heneb considers that the EIR do not apply to any or all of the information requested, please state that expressly and identify the legal basis for that position. I would nevertheless be grateful if Heneb would consider the request voluntarily as an information-access\n request, particularly where the information forms part of, or supports, the statutory Historic Environment Record or associated archaeological archive maintained on behalf of the Welsh Ministers.\nI have copied Cadw and the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales because the request concerns the statutory HER system and records said to have been transferred or accessioned into the National Monuments Record of Wales.\nThe request is for existing recorded information only. I am not asking Heneb to create a new report or undertake fresh archaeological interpretation.\nPurpose and evidential context\nThis request arises from a wider forensic examination of the surviving documentary record concerning Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough.\nTwo companion forensic critiques, dated 21 September 2026, have been prepared concerning respectively Cadw and GGAT/Heneb. They are not presented as proof of dishonesty, bad faith, corruption or deliberate destruction. Rather, they identify a series of documentary\n gaps, inconsistent records and questions which cannot properly be resolved without access to the underlying primary records.\nIn particular, the GGAT critique identifies questions concerning the Trust's historical roles as archaeological adviser, contractor, investigator, curator and record-holder, and concerning the provenance and subsequent custody of the 1990 Great House Farm\n assessment and associated material.\nThe purpose of this request is therefore to establish, from the records themselves, what material existed, what was lost, what survived, where it was held, when it was transferred, and whether the present HER and archive accurately represent the historical\n record.\nThe two distinct archaeological areas at Llandough\nFor the avoidance of doubt, I ask that the following be treated as separate investigations.\n1. Llandough Farm / Roman villa area south of St Dochdwy's church\nGGAT undertook excavation in this area in 1978–79, with the HER identifying event GGATE001109 as \"Llandough Farm\". The associated site record concerns an Iron Age/Roman villa complex with later early-medieval burial activity.\n2. Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr) area north of St Dochdwy's church\nGGAT undertook an archaeological assessment/evaluation of Great House Farm in 1990, followed by the substantially larger Cotswold Archaeological Trust excavation in 1994.\nThese should not be conflated in the records or in any response to this request.\nPart A — March 1983 warehouse fire\nI have identified contemporaneous newspaper reports concerning the March 1983 fire at the GGAT Swansea warehouse.\nThose reports state that substantial quantities of archaeological material were destroyed and specifically identify finds from Llandough among the losses. They also report the destruction of a photographic studio/darkroom and a substantial quantity of photographic\n material.\nI therefore request:\n1. Any surviving inventory, catalogue, accession register, storage list, box list, find list, archive schedule or other contemporaneous record identifying archaeological material held at the Swansea warehouse immediately before the fire.\n2. Any surviving inventory, assessment or other record identifying material from the 1978–79 Llandough Farm excavation which was destroyed, lost, damaged or rendered unrecoverable in the fire.\n3. Any records identifying Llandough photographic material lost in the fire, including, where recorded:\n\noriginal negatives;contact sheets;prints;transparencies/slides;photographic registers or catalogues;site photography logs; andduplicate or working copies.\n4. Any post-fire salvage, recovery, reconciliation or damage-assessment records concerning archaeological material or photographic material recovered from the warehouse.\n5. Any insurance claim, loss schedule, valuation, stock reconciliation, internal audit, board/minute record, memorandum or other contemporaneous document assessing the scale or nature of the archaeological and photographic losses.\n6. Any correspondence concerning the fire or its archaeological losses with Cadw/Welsh Historic Monuments, the Welsh Office/Welsh Government, Amgueddfa Cymru/National Museum Wales, RCAHMW, local authorities, funding bodies, insurers, fire\n authorities or other archaeological organisations.\n7. Any GGAT annual report, internal report, memorandum or other record discussing the fire, the losses, salvage, replacement of records, reconstruction of catalogues or subsequent archive-management arrangements.\nPart B — What survived from the 1978–79 Llandough excavation\n8. Any surviving GGAT records showing what material from the Llandough Farm excavation survived the 1983 fire, including finds, site records, plans, drawings, photographs, notebooks, context records, catalogues, reports and publication material.\n9. Any surviving records showing where surviving Llandough material was subsequently stored, transferred, deposited or otherwise held.\n10. Any transfer, accession or deposit records identifying material from the Llandough excavation now held by Heneb, Amgueddfa Cymru/National Museum Wales, RCAHMW, the Archaeology Data Service or another repository.\n11. If Heneb no longer holds material formerly held by GGAT from this excavation, please provide any recorded information showing when and how that material ceased to be held by GGAT or its successor organisations.\nPart C — Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr): the 1990 GGAT assessment\n12. Any records showing the complete archival history and custody of the GGAT 1990 archaeological assessment of Great House Farm, including the report associated with HER record GGAT02038s.\n13. Please provide any surviving records showing:\n\nthe date on which the assessment was completed;the date on which it was received or entered into GGAT records;its original file or archive reference;where the original and working copies were held;any subsequent movement between GGAT offices, stores or repositories;any transfer or deposit to RCAHMW/the National Monuments Record of Wales;the date and reference of any such accession; andthe identity and present location of associated archive material.\nI understand that the 1990 assessment was accessioned into the National Monuments Record of Wales on\n20 March 2019.\nPlease confirm whether that date is correct and provide the underlying accession, transfer, deposit or cataloguing record.\n14. If the assessment was not accessioned into the National Monuments Record until 2019, please provide any recorded information showing where the assessment and associated archive material were held between completion of the assessment\n and that accession.\n15. Please provide any surviving pre-1990 or 1990 GGAT material relating to Great House Farm/Tŷ Mawr, including correspondence, field notes, photographs, plans, drawings, draft reports, site notebooks, assessment notes and archaeological\n planning correspondence.\n16. Please specifically provide any surviving material corresponding to, or identified as,\nAppendix B and Appendix E of the 1990 GGAT assessment, together with any records showing whether either appendix has been lost, separated from the principal report, transferred elsewhere, superseded, or otherwise disposed of.\n17. Any records concerning the preparation, internal review, approval, issue and circulation of the 1990 assessment and its appendices.\n18. Any records concerning the commissioning, procurement, quotation, specification, fee, contract, invoice or other administrative arrangements under which GGAT undertook the 1990 Great House Farm assessment.\n19. Any records showing what information supplied by GGAT about Great House Farm was entered into, amended within, cross-referenced within, or omitted from the then South Glamorgan/West Glamorgan Sites and Monuments Record.\n20. Any audit trail, change history, correction record or equivalent metadata showing subsequent amendments to the relevant HER records and references for Great House Farm/Tŷ Mawr.\nPart D — Relationship between the 1990 assessment and the 1994 excavation\n21. Any records showing what information or archive material from the 1990 GGAT assessment was supplied to, transferred to, or made available to Cotswold Archaeological Trust in connection with the 1994 excavation.\n22. Any correspondence between GGAT and Cotswold Archaeological Trust concerning the archaeological potential, results, interpretation, extent or recording of the Great House Farm site.\n23. Any records showing whether the 1990 GGAT trench plan, archaeological potential map, appendices or conclusions were used to determine the location, extent or methodology of the 1994 excavation.\n24. Any records identifying any material change between GGAT's 1990 assessment and the findings of the 1994 excavation, including any contemporary acknowledgment within GGAT's records that the 1994 findings differed materially from the conclusions\n or zoning of the 1990 assessment.\nPart E — The 1994 Cotswold Archaeological Trust excavation archive\n25. Any records held by Heneb concerning the surviving archive of the 1994 Great House Farm excavation, including information on where the archive was deposited or transferred.\n26. Any records showing the date, destination and scope of any transfer or deposit of the 1994 excavation archive, including:\n\nfinds;human-remains records;context sheets;plans and drawings;photographs;catalogues;databases; andspecialist reports.\n27. The published excavation record states that 1,026 inhumation burials were examined, whereas the current Heneb HER record states\n858 inhumations.\nPlease provide any records held by Heneb which explain the difference between these figures, including whether they represent different stages of excavation, different archaeological categories, different counting methodologies, or subsequent correction\n or revision of the HER.\n28. Any records showing whether material from the 1994 excavation remains with Heneb/GGAT, Cotswold Archaeology, Amgueddfa Cymru/National Museum Wales, RCAHMW, the Archaeology Data Service or another repository.\n29. I understand that archive material relating to the 1994 excavation was deposited in or around 2014. Please confirm whether this is correct and, if so, provide the relevant accession/deposit information and identify the repository concerned.\nPart F — Archive management following the 1983 fire\n30. Any records concerning the archive-management arrangements implemented by GGAT following the 1983 fire for the preservation, cataloguing, duplication, storage and eventual deposition of excavation archives, photographs and associated\n records.\n31. Any records showing whether records affected by the fire were reconstructed, recreated, copied, replaced or otherwise restored, and which archaeological projects were affected by any such work.\n32. Any records concerning subsequent reviews of the completeness of excavation archives affected by the fire.\n33. Any retention schedules, disposal schedules, archive policies, accession procedures or records-management guidance used by GGAT during the relevant period which governed the retention or disposal of archaeological project records and\n photographs.\nPart G — Present completeness and custody of the archaeological record\n34. Any surviving GGAT/Heneb records identifying missing, lost, destroyed, separated or otherwise unaccounted-for archive components relating to either the Llandough Farm excavation or Great House Farm/Tŷ Mawr.\n35. Any records showing whether the 1978–79 Llandough excavation archive, the 1990 Great House Farm assessment and the 1994 Great House Farm excavation archive were ever cross-referenced, reconciled or treated as related archaeological records.\n36. Any records identifying discrepancies between the historical GGAT records, the present Heneb HER, the National Monuments Record of Wales and the published archaeological reports concerning these sites.\nPart H — Heneb's statutory HER role and custody of information\n37. Please identify the legal and administrative basis on which Heneb maintains the relevant Historic Environment Record on behalf of the Welsh Ministers, including any agreement, contract, service specification, grant agreement, memorandum\n of understanding or other instrument governing that arrangement.\n38. Does Heneb consider that information forming part of the statutory Historic Environment Record is held:\na. by Heneb in its own capacity;\nb. by Heneb on behalf of the Welsh Ministers; or\nc. on some other legal or administrative basis?\nPlease explain.\n39. Where historical GGAT material now held by Heneb forms evidence supporting a statutory HER record, please identify whether the underlying source archive is regarded as part of the HER itself, associated reference material, or a separate\n archaeological archive.\n40. If any of the information requested above is held by Heneb solely on behalf of the Welsh Ministers, please identify the relevant Welsh Government/Cadw body responsible for access to that information and the applicable access regime.\nSearches and records no longer held\nI appreciate that some historical records may no longer survive.\nWhere information requested above is no longer held, please state that clearly and, where recorded information exists concerning its destruction, disposal, transfer, loss or separation, please provide that information.\nFor each material category where the original record is no longer held, please provide any surviving record showing:\n\nwhen it ceased to be held;why it ceased to be held;whether it was destroyed, lost, transferred or otherwise disposed of;whether any replacement, copy or reconstruction was made; andthe repository or organisation to which it was transferred, where applicable.\nIf Heneb's searches establish that a record formerly known to exist cannot now be located, please identify the relevant search terms, archive locations or record systems searched and the outcome of those searches, insofar as such information is itself recorded.\nWhere records have been transferred to another body, please identify that body together with any accession, archive or reference number known to Heneb.\nScope and cost\nIf Heneb considers that this request is too broad or that responding to it would exceed any applicable statutory cost limit, please identify the specific questions or categories causing the difficulty and advise how I can narrow the request while retaining\n the central questions concerning:\n\nthe scale and nature of the archaeological and photographic losses in the March 1983 warehouse fire;what material from the 1978–79 Llandough excavation survived;the complete custody history of the 1990 Great House Farm assessment and its appendices;the relationship between that assessment and the 1994 excavation;the whereabouts and completeness of the 1994 excavation archive; andthe present accuracy and provenance of the relevant HER records.\nIf some information is already publicly available or is held by another body, please identify the relevant repository and, where possible, provide the relevant archive, accession or catalogue reference rather than simply directing me to the organisation\n generally.\nThis request is made in the public interest and is intended to establish the documentary record. It should not be read as an allegation that any individual or institution acted dishonestly, in bad faith, corruptly, or deliberately destroyed or concealed\n evidence.\nI would be grateful for confirmation of receipt and for the request to be dealt with under the appropriate applicable information-access regime.\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber/ Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a0d3f30a932fcc1","subject":"FOI \"Llandough Roman villa & medieval house finds were destroyed in a 1983 fire\"","name":"FOI \"Llandough Roman villa & medieval house finds were destroyed in a 1983 fire\"","date":"2026-09-24T15:05:15Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0d3f30a932fcc1.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0d3d85a7ef4715-foi-llandough-roman-villa-medieval-house-finds-were-destroyed-in-a-1983-fire","scopeTopics":["heneb"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["heneb"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0d3d85a7ef4715","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"heneb","name":"Heneb (formerly GGAT) / Historic Environment Record"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0d3f30a932fcc1.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Heneb: The Trust for Welsh Archaeology,\n\nI am writing to request access to recorded information concerning the March\n1983 fire at the former Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust (GGAT)\nwarehouse in Swansea, particularly the reported destruction of\narchaeological finds, excavation records and photographic material from\nLlandough, together with records concerning the subsequent custody,\npreservation, transfer and integrity of archaeological records relating to\nGreat House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough.\n\nI recognise that Heneb is an independent private company limited by\nguarantee and registered charity rather than a body ordinarily subject to\nthe Freedom of Information Act 2000.\n\nHowever, Heneb now maintains the statutory Historic Environment Records for\nWales on behalf of the Welsh Ministers.

Please confirm whether this is correct\nand, if so, provide the relevant accession/deposit information and identify\nthe repository concerned.\nPart F — Archive management following the 1983 fire\n\n*30.* Any records concerning the archive-management arrangements\nimplemented by GGAT following the 1983 fire for the preservation,\ncataloguing, duplication, storage and eventual deposition of excavation\narchives, photographs and associated records.\n\n*31.* Any records showing whether records affected by the fire were\nreconstructed, recreated, copied, replaced or otherwise restored, and which\narchaeological projects were affected by any such work.\n\n*32.* Any records concerning subsequent reviews of the completeness of\nexcavation archives affected by the fire.\n\n*33.* Any retention schedules, disposal schedules, archive policies,\naccession procedures or records-management guidance used by GGAT during the\nrelevant period which governed the retention or disposal of archaeological\nproject records and photographs.\nPart G — Present completeness and custody of the archaeological record\n\n*34.* Any surviving GGAT/Heneb records identifying missing, lost,\ndestroyed, separated or otherwise unaccounted-for archive components\nrelating to either the Llandough Farm excavation or Great House Farm/Tŷ\nMawr.\n\n*35.* Any records showing whether the 1978–79 Llandough excavation archive,\nthe 1990 Great House Farm assessment and the 1994 Great House Farm\nexcavation archive were ever cross-referenced, reconciled or treated as\nrelated archaeological records.\n\n*36.* Any records identifying discrepancies between the historical GGAT\nrecords, the present Heneb HER, the National Monuments Record of Wales and\nthe published archaeological reports concerning these sites.\nPart H — Heneb's statutory HER role and custody of information\n\n*37.* Please identify the legal and administrative basis on which Heneb\nmaintains the relevant Historic Environment Record on behalf of the Welsh\nMinisters, including any agreement, contract, service specification, grant\nagreement, memorandum of understanding or other instrument governing that\narrangement.\n\n*38.* Does Heneb consider that information forming part of the statutory\nHistoric Environment Record is held:\n\na. by Heneb in its own capacity;\n\nb. by Heneb on behalf of the Welsh Ministers; or\n\nc. on some other legal or administrative basis?\n\nPlease explain.\n\n*39.* Where historical GGAT material now held by Heneb forms evidence\nsupporting a statutory HER record, please identify whether the underlying\nsource archive is regarded as part of the HER itself, associated reference\nmaterial, or a separate archaeological archive.\n\n*40.* If any of the information requested above is held by Heneb solely on\nbehalf of the Welsh Ministers, please identify the relevant Welsh\nGovernment/Cadw body responsible for access to that information and the\napplicable access regime.\nSearches and records no longer held\n\nI appreciate that some historical records may no longer survive.\n\nWhere information requested above is no longer held, please state that\nclearly and, where recorded information exists concerning its destruction,\ndisposal, transfer, loss or separation, please provide that information.\n\nFor each material category where the original record is no longer held,\nplease provide any surviving record showing:\n\n   - when it ceased to be held;\n   - why it ceased to be held;\n   - whether it was destroyed, lost, transferred or otherwise disposed of;\n   - whether any replacement, copy or reconstruction was made; and\n   - the repository or organisation to which it was transferred, where\n   applicable.\n\nIf Heneb's searches establish that a record formerly known to exist cannot\nnow be located, please identify the relevant search terms, archive\nlocations or record systems searched and the outcome of those searches,\ninsofar as such information is itself recorded.\n\nWhere records have been transferred to another body, please identify that\nbody together with any accession, archive or reference number known to\nHeneb.\nScope and cost\n\nIf Heneb considers that this request is too broad or that responding to it\nwould exceed any applicable statutory cost limit, please identify the\nspecific questions or categories causing the difficulty and advise how I\ncan narrow the request while retaining the central questions concerning:\n\n   1. the scale and nature of the archaeological and photographic losses in\n   the March 1983 warehouse fire;\n   2. what material from the 1978–79 Llandough excavation survived;\n   3. the complete custody history of the 1990 Great House Farm assessment\n   and its appendices;\n   4. the relationship between that assessment and the 1994 excavation;\n   5. the whereabouts and completeness of the 1994 excavation archive; and\n   6. the present accuracy and provenance of the relevant HER records.\n\nIf some information is already publicly available or is held by another\nbody, please identify the relevant repository and, where possible, provide\nthe relevant archive, accession or catalogue reference rather than simply\ndirecting me to the organisation generally.\n\nThis request is made in the public interest and is intended to establish\nthe documentary record. It should not be read as an allegation that any\nindividual or institution acted dishonestly, in bad faith, corruptly, or\ndeliberately destroyed or concealed evidence.\n\nI would be grateful for confirmation of receipt and for the request to be\ndealt with under the appropriate applicable information-access regime.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber/ Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a0cf0a5c1c2a0a0","subject":"Freedom of Information Request: Reference CAS-347296-M0V4Y1 CRM:007302479","name":"Freedom of Information Request: Reference CAS-347296-M0V4Y1 CRM:007302479","date":"2026-09-23T16:12:31Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0cf0a5c1c2a0a0.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0cf0a5c1c2a0a0-freedom-of-information-request-reference-cas-347296-m0v4y1-crm-007302479","scopeTopics":["tna"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["tna"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0cf0a5c1c2a0a0","direction":"received","from":"FOI Requests","institutions":[{"id":"tna","name":"The National Archives"}],"refs":["CAS-347296"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0cf0a5c1c2a0a0.json","attachments":[{"name":"Item 01 - Release Schedule_On Discovery_Redacted.csv","title":"CAS-347296 item 01: release schedule (on Discovery)","url":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/pdf/foi/2026-09-23_tna_cas-347296_item01-release-schedule-on-discovery.csv","mime":"text/csv","bytes":549,"sha256":"7050146d5c76fd542fc174736d0591dba7e69a40be9aca1ff3d5850e4c8a8df4"},{"name":"Item 02 - Release Schedule_High Level Delivery Schedule_Redacted.csv","title":"CAS-347296 item 02: high-level delivery schedule","url":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/pdf/foi/2026-09-23_tna_cas-347296_item02-high-level-delivery-schedule.csv","mime":"text/csv","bytes":176,"sha256":"2fa452194df3dc863cb4f4ff2b377f12b98e0f756ec9ed22f9f3800d1775f3aa"},{"name":"Item 03 - Collect 27 Series 11_Manifest_Redacted.csv","title":"CAS-347296 item 03: Collection 27 series 11 manifest","url":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/pdf/foi/2026-09-23_tna_cas-347296_item03-collect27-series11-manifest.csv","mime":"text/csv","bytes":93,"sha256":"10681e85f7a96fc29959599f757aed67ffb745f264d89139e2dd73f315d5daab"}],"textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Ret'd Sergeant Sion Buckler,\n\n\n\nThank you for your enquiry in which you asked for the information concerning the existence, provenance, transfer, retention, destruction or disposal of records relating to Ty Mawr / Great House Farm.\n\n\n\nYour request has been handled under the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act 2000. The FOI Act gives you the right to know whether we hold the information you want and to have it communicated to you, subject to any exemptions which may apply.\n\n\n\nI can confirm that The National Archives holds some information relevant to your request. We are pleased to be able to provide some of this information to you.\n\n\n\nOur response\n\n\n\nThe initial response from our records enquiries team looked for the four terms (“Great House Farm”, “Ty Mawr”, “Llandough” or “Cedfin”) within the PRO and RW series and did not find any relevant information. We have now tried those terms and the further twelve terms that you have specified in a wider catalogue search. We have provided the results of our search below.\n\n\n\nThe crux of your query is local land ownership dispute in Glamorgan and the demolition of some buildings by a private company; generally speaking, these are not matters dealt with by central government and we would not expect to see anything within our collections. As such, there would have been no records to transfer. The exception is the court case relating to BP properties, which generated some papers. Links to the catalogue pages for these records can be seen below.\n\n\n\nThere are likely to be records of the farm in the 1940s as part of the National Farm Survey series but these cannot all currently be searched online by farm.\n\n\n\nWe are unable to conduct this research on the archival collections on your behalf without charging fees to conduct research on your behalf (Paid Search).

I specifically asked The National Archives to identify recorded information concerning the existence, transfer, retention, destruction, disposal or absence of records, including records that might not be catalogued under the property's later or local names.\n\n\n\nYour response confirms only that you searched the PRO and RW series using:\n\n\n\n“Great House Farm” OR “Ty Mawr” OR Llandough OR Cedfin\n\n\n\ncombined with “Glamorgan”, and that this produced no catalogue results.\n\n\n\nYou also correctly state that Discovery searches catalogue titles and descriptions rather than the contents of records. That qualification is important, because it means the search described cannot establish that relevant records did not exist, were never transferred, or were destroyed.\n\n\n\nIn particular, your response does not appear to address the other categories expressly identified in my request, including searches or recorded information relating to:\n\n\n\n  *   Western Ground Rents Ltd;\n\n  *   BP Pension Trust Ltd;\n\n  *   BP Properties Ltd;\n\n  *   Mountjoy Ltd;\n\n  *   the proceedings in BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2;\n\n  *   the 1982–1983 registration and associated government or administrative records;\n\n  *   the 1980–1988 public campaign and governmental correspondence;\n\n  *   the 1988 eviction and demolition;\n\n  *   Cadw or central-government communications concerning the property;\n\n  *   European Commission of Human Rights Application 14464/88;\n\n  *   records concerning transfer, destruction or disposal of potentially relevant material; and\n\n  *   HMC9/311 or related archival references.\n\n\n\nThese alternative lines of enquiry are intentional. The purpose is to establish whether relevant information can be identified through the government bodies, corporate entities, court proceedings, administrative processes and archival transfers associated with the property, rather than relying solely upon the modern name by which the property is known.\n\n\n\nI am conducting corresponding enquiries with other repositories and public bodies. This is specifically intended to triangulate the documentary history where records may have been catalogued under a different creator, department, legal proceeding, estate, corporate body or administrative function.\n\n\n\nI therefore ask that you do not treat the absence of a Discovery keyword hit as an answer to the substantive questions raised.\n\n\n\nPlease clarify:\n\n\n\n  1.  Whether the searches undertaken were limited to the PRO and RW catalogue series and the four property/location search terms identified in your email.\n\n\n\n  1.  Whether The National Archives searched for the named corporate bodies, court proceedings and application references identified in my request, rather than only searching the property names.\n\n\n\n  1.  Whether The National Archives holds any recorded transfer, accession, disposal, destruction or retention information indicating that records concerning the relevant property, estate, companies, litigation or government involvement were transferred elsewhere, destroyed, or otherwise disposed of.\n\n\n\n  1.  If such information is not held, whether this is because no such records are held, because no relevant records were ever transferred to TNA, or because TNA's catalogue/search systems contain no discoverable description of them.\n\n\n\n  1.  Whether HMC9/311 or related series have been checked, or whether that reference falls outside the search undertaken.\n\n\n\n  1.  Whether there are central-government, court, departmental or administrative records relating to the litigation and entities identified above which may contain references to the property without using “Great House Farm”, “Ty Mawr”, “Llandough” or “Cedfin” in the catalogue description.\n\n\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, I am not asking The National Archives to infer the contents of uncatalogued records or to undertake an unlimited research project. I am asking for confirmation of the recorded information held by TNA concerning the existence, provenance, transfer, retention, destruction or disposal of potentially relevant records, and for the searches undertaken to locate that information.\n\n\n\nThat distinction is particularly important because a catalogue search returning no result is not equivalent to a finding that no relevant historical, governmental or archival records existed.\n\n\n\nI would therefore be grateful if this could be reconsidered as a response to the scope of the original FOI enquiry rather than treated solely as a request for assistance with a Discovery keyword search.\n\n\n\nI am continuing parallel enquiries with the National Library of Wales, Glamorgan Archives, Cadw, RCAHMW, HM Land Registry and other relevant bodies. The purpose of these enquiries is to establish the documentary chain independently and to identify where records were created, transferred, retained or potentially destroyed.\n\n\n\nFollow-up email dated 20/08/2026\n\n\n\nIn addition, please expand the scope of the search to include any records held relating to the Glamorgan War Agricultural Executive Committee (“War Ag” / CWAEC) and Great House Farm / the relevant land at Llandough, covering approximately 1936–1950 (with particular focus on 1939–1945). This should include, where held:\n\n\n\n  *   Any orders, notices or decisions taking possession of, directing cultivation of, or otherwise requisitioning land forming part of Great House Farm (or the specific parcel now associated with Llandough Motor Sales / Llandough Trading Estate).\n\n  *   Any compensation claims, assessments, payments or settlements under the Compensation (Defence) Act 1939 or related wartime legislation, including the identity of the recipient(s).\n\n  *   Relevant minutes, correspondence or case files of the Glamorgan CWAEC concerning the farm or land in question.\n\n  *   Any related material in the MAF series that links the National Farm Survey entries with wartime agricultural possession or compensation.\n\n\n\nI hold original documents recording compensation payments in connection with this land and am seeking to identify the wartime status of the holding and the party recognised as entitled to compensation.\n\n\n\nClarification email dated 02/09/2026\n\n\n\nIn summary, I am seeking recorded information held by The National Archives concerning:\n\n\n\n  *   Existence, transfer, retention, destruction or disposal of records relating to Great House Farm / Ty Mawr (and earlier descriptions) and associated entities, litigation and administrative processes (as previously detailed).\n\n\n\n  *   National Farm Survey / MAFF records for the holding.\n\n\n\n  *   Any Glamorgan CWAEC / War Ag records, possession/requisition orders, cultivation directions, and compensation claims/payments under the Compensation (Defence) Act 1939 or related wartime legislation in respect of the land (or the parcel now associated with Llandough Motor Sales / Llandough Trading Estate), including identity of any compensation recipients.\n\n\n\nI am not asking for an open-ended research exercise. I am asking for confirmation of what recorded information (including transfer, accession, disposal or destruction records) is held, the series searched, and the results of those searches.\n\n\n\nPlease don't print this e-mail unless you really need to. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- National Archives Disclaimer This email and any files transmitted with it are intended solely for the use of the individual(s) to whom they are addressed.

My concern is the conduct, decision-making, record-keeping and accountability of public bodies responsible for heritage protection, planning and local government.\n\nThe surviving evidence presents a series of unusually important questions.\n\nGreat House Farm was professionally surveyed by the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales in 1974. In December 1988, Cadw was considering the building for emergency spot-listing, with a contemporary report stating that inspectors were due to visit and consider the case. The European Commission of Human Rights records that the Convention application had been introduced on 3 May 1988; BP obtained possession on 29 November 1988; demolition began on 6 December 1988; and the application was not registered by the Commission until 12 December 1988.\n\nThe evidence therefore establishes a very compressed sequence in which emergency heritage protection was being considered, domestic interim relief was refused, possession was obtained and the building was then destroyed within days.\n\nThat chronology does not, by itself, establish coordination, deliberate suppression or unlawful conduct. It does, however, warrant investigation.\n\nThere are several specific questions which I believe require answers from an authority independent of the present local authority:\n\n  1.  What information and records were actually considered by Cadw when the 1988 spot-listing decision was made?\n  2.  Was the 1974 RCAHMW architectural survey considered, and if not, why not?\n  3.  What communications took place between Cadw, South Glamorgan County Council, BP Properties Ltd, the courts and any other public bodies during the critical period immediately preceding demolition?\n  4.  What consideration was given by the local planning authority to the available statutory powers of preservation in circumstances where demolition was imminent?\n  5.  Why was the building destroyed before there could be an independent retrospective architectural examination of the fabric?\n  6.  How should the later archaeological evidence, including the discovery of approximately 1,026 burials in 1994, be understood in assessing the historic significance of the site and the adequacy of the earlier decision-making? I recognise that this later discovery cannot retrospectively prove that the 1988 listing decision was unlawful.\n  7.  A 1989 planning document appears to describe the site as having formerly contained Great House Farm “(a listed building)”. I ask that this apparent discrepancy be investigated and reconciled with the 1988 Cadw decision.\n  8.  What records relating to these decisions still exist, where are they held, and have reasonable steps been taken to preserve and disclose them?\n\nI am particularly concerned that the destruction of the physical building in December 1988 permanently removed primary architectural evidence which could otherwise have been examined independently.\n\nI also ask the Senedd to consider the wider public-interest question: whether the present mechanisms for accountability are adequate where a historic building is destroyed during a period of rapidly developing legal, planning and heritage proceedings and significant questions remain about what information was available to decision-makers.\n\nI would therefore ask the Petitions Committee to consider accepting a petition on this subject and, where appropriate, referring the matter to the relevant Senedd committee or committees for investigation. I would also welcome consideration of whether an independent public inquiry, committee inquiry or other form of external investigation would be appropriate.\n\nI am prepared to provide the underlying documents, chronology, court material, heritage records, planning documents and correspondence supporting these questions.\n\nI am not asking the Senedd to adopt my conclusions. I am asking that the evidence and unanswered questions be examined independently and that the relevant public bodies be required to account for what they did, what they knew, and what records exist.\n\nPlease confirm the appropriate route for submitting this formally to the Senedd and whether the material can be referred to the Petitions Committee for consideration.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\n\nOn Wed, 12 Aug 2026, 10:13 Pwyllgor Diwylliant, Cyfathrebu, y Gymraeg a Chwaraeon - Culture, Communications, Cymraeg and Sport Committee,  > wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler,\n\nThank you for your further correspondence and for clarifying the purpose of your submission.\n\nI understand the distinction you draw between seeking a review of the original 1988 decision and raising broader concerns about record-keeping, archival practice, and public accountability. However, the Committee's role is to scrutinise and hold the Welsh Government and associated public bodies to account in relation to policy, governance, and the use of public resources.\n\nWhile I appreciate the broader administrative concerns you have identified, the issues raised in your correspondence arise from a specific historical case. The Committee does not have a role in reviewing or overseeing day-to-day operational decisions taken in individual cases. Accordingly, the Committee is unable to take forward the matters raised in your correspondence.\n\nIf you wish to pursue concerns regarding the management, retention or preservation of historical records, these matters are most appropriately raised with the relevant public authority or archival body responsible for those records. Similarly, concerns regarding the administration of a public body should be pursued through that body's complaints procedure and, where appropriate, with the Public Services Ombudsman for Wales.\n\nThank you for taking the time to write to the Committee and to set out your concerns in detail.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nHaidee\n\n[cid:image001.png@01DD4ABC.6D312FB0]\nHaidee James[cid:image002.png@01DD4ABC.6D312FB0]\nAil Glerc, Pwyllgor Diwylliant, Cyfathrebu, y Gymraeg a Chwaraeon, Senedd Cymru\nSecond Clerk, Culture, Communications, Cymraeg and Sport Committee, Welsh Parliament\n[phone redacted] Rhagenwau|Pronouns: hi – she/her\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler  >\nSent: 11 August 2026 16:57\nTo: Pwyllgor Diwylliant, Cyfathrebu, y Gymraeg a Chwaraeon - Culture, Communications, Cymraeg and Sport Committee  >\nSubject: Re: Acknowledgement from the Culture, Communications, Cymraeg and Sport Committee\n\n\nDear Ms James,\n\nThank you for your considered response.\n\nI understand and accept that the Committee does not have a remit to adjudicate upon an individual dispute, determine whether a historical decision was lawful, or direct Cadw to reopen a particular case. My submission was deliberately framed so as not to ask the Committee to do any of those things.\n\nI would, however, respectfully clarify one point, because I am concerned that the nature of the request may have been characterised more narrowly than intended.\n\nThe attached report expressly states that it is not a legal challenge, a forensic proof of wrongdoing, a complaint seeking adjudication, or a demand for reversal of the 1988 decision. Its stated purpose is historical record correction, archival explanation and administrative acknowledgement. In particular, it asks for an explanation of why almost none of the records concerning the 1988 assessment survive, whether that reflects the applicable record-retention arrangements, and whether the surviving independent evidence should be properly reflected in the permanent public record.\n\nThe central issue therefore extends beyond the merits of the individual 1988 listing assessment.\n\nCadw's 2026 FOI response confirms that an assessment took place, but that only two exterior photographs now survive; the assessment report, reasons for refusal, site notes, internal recommendations and consultation correspondence are no longer available. The report does not assert that this proves wrongdoing. Rather, it identifies a straightforward public-administration question: how can the adequacy and evidential basis of an irreversible public heritage decision be understood or scrutinised when the underlying administrative record no longer survives?\n\nThat seems potentially relevant to the Committee's stated function of scrutinising the administration and accountability of Welsh Government and associated public bodies, even if the Committee cannot itself determine whether the 1988 decision was correct.\n\nI am therefore not asking the Committee to investigate the Buckler family's historical dispute with BP, adjudicate upon the 1988 decision, or direct Cadw to reverse anything. The specific administrative questions raised in the report are instead:\n\n  1.  What record-retention arrangements applied to the 1988 assessment?\n  2.  Why do the assessment report, reasons, site notes and consultation records no longer survive?\n  3.  Were the records destroyed under an applicable retention policy or other authority, and were they considered for transfer to the appropriate archival institution?\n  4.  Is the present position consistent with Welsh Government/Cadw expectations for the preservation of records concerning significant heritage decisions?\n  5.  Are current arrangements sufficient to ensure that comparable heritage assessments, particularly where a building is under imminent threat of demolition, are properly documented and retained?\n\nThese are not questions that require the Committee to determine the rights of either party to the original dispute. They concern administrative practice, institutional record-keeping and the ability of the Senedd and the public to scrutinise decisions taken by public bodies. The report specifically asks Cadw to explain the archival position and review its current record-keeping practices for this reason.\n\nI would therefore be grateful if the Committee could reconsider whether the broader administrative and accountability issue falls within its scrutiny function, even if the Committee cannot examine the underlying individual dispute.\n\nIf the Committee considers that it nevertheless cannot engage with the matter, I would appreciate clarification as to which Senedd or Welsh Government scrutiny, oversight, archival or complaints mechanism is considered appropriate for raising a documented concern about the absence of the administrative record of a historical Cadw decision and the implications this has for public accountability.\n\nFor completeness, I should also emphasise that the report itself deliberately recognises the limits of the surviving evidence. It does not claim that Cadw acted unlawfully or in bad faith, and it expressly acknowledges that the absence of the 1988 working papers means that the assessment cannot now be reconstructed definitively.\n\nMy objective is therefore quite limited: to ensure that the surviving evidence is preserved, that the archival gap is properly explained, and that the public record accurately distinguishes what is established from what can no longer be verified.\n\nI hope that clarification assists, and I would be grateful if you could confirm whether the Committee is able to consider the matter from that wider public-administration and accountability perspective.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret’d Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber & Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Tue, 11 Aug 2026, 07:58 Pwyllgor Diwylliant, Cyfathrebu, y Gymraeg a Chwaraeon - Culture, Communications, Cymraeg and Sport Committee,  > wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler,\n\nThank you for your correspondence and for sharing the forensic review of Cadw's 1988 assessment of Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough.

I do not expect a reply before the stage-one response. It adds\nseven matters under the existing headings at section 7, and one addition to\nthe outcomes at section 9, set out at the end.\n\nThe public interest is engaged alongside my family's. Great House Farm\nstood beside the Grade I church at Llandough, was recorded by the Royal\nCommission in 1974, sat within a known archaeological site, and was\ndescribed in the post-demolition planning record as a \"county treasure\". I\ndo not ask Cadw to treat the 1994 discoveries as knowledge it had in 1988.\nThey show what was lost; the pre-1988 record is the measure of Cadw's\nprocess.\n\nOn my family's account and the contemporary press report, protection was\nbeing sought in the first days of December 1988 and the house was\ndemolished almost immediately afterwards. I do not ask Cadw to determine\nresponsibility for the demolition. The grievance is narrower: protection\nwas sought at the critical moment, and Cadw cannot now show what it\nconsidered.\n\n1. The adopted development plan (matter A)\n\nThe planning officer's report on application 89/01396/OUT records that the\nsupporting information to Policy H.2 of the East Vale Local Plan \"states\nthat buildings on the site should be retained, however were unfortunately\ndemolished a little while ago.\" I do not say this bound Cadw or required\nlisting. I ask:\n(a) was Cadw aware of it in December 1988;\n(b) did the planning authority draw it to Cadw's attention; and\n(c) if neither can be established, will Cadw say so expressly.\n\n2. The search undertaken on 21 May (matters D and F)\n\nMr Weatherhead wrote that he had asked a colleague to search other paper\nfiles, \"including the Welsh Office files\", and would write again with the\nresult, while fairly warning that some files had quite likely been\ndestroyed. I have not received that letter. Please confirm whether the\nsearch was carried out, which series were searched, what was found, and\nwhether Cadw regards the ATISN 27021 response of 11 June as its report of\nthat search.\n\n3. The meaning of \"YYY\" (matter J)\n\nCadw has given two accounts of the marking — that the buildings were\n\"marginally below the bar for listing\" (21 May) and that the building did\nnot meet the criteria (10 July) — and one inference, that it did not meet\nthe criteria \"as it was not included on the list\" (29 July). I ask for one\nsettled meaning, the documentary source for it, and, if there is none, a\nstatement to that effect.\n\n4. The retention period (matter J)\n\nYour email of 27 August said that no records of the historic retention\narrangements are available, and that the three-year period is what current\ncolleagues advised from their knowledge of the systems then in place. I ask\nonly that the complaint response confirm expressly that this is an account\nof general practice, not evidence that the Great House Farm file was in\nfact destroyed after three years.\n\n5. Professional archaeological knowledge of this site before December 1988\n(matter C)\n\nOn 22 September 2026 Amgueddfa Cymru disclosed to me, under FOI 2026-032,\nits collections records for two accessions from this site. The first,\n82.44H, is the material from the Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust's\nexcavation of 1979 on land formerly part of Great House Farm, carried out\nin advance of housing development. The museum's records give the findspot\nas ST 168 733, the donor as Wales & West Housing Association Ltd, and the\npublished report as Owen-John 1988. The accession runs to several hundred\nentries and includes Roman coins, samian, glass, a bone scabbard slide and\nquerns, together with medieval pottery and ironwork.\n\nThis is not archaeology discovered after the event. By the time Cadw\nconsidered this building, the site had been professionally excavated, the\nfinds had been accessioned by the national museum under a 1982 accession\nnumber, and the excavation report had been published. I therefore ask, as\nan addition to matter C:\n(a) whether Cadw held, or had access to, the 1979 excavation record or its\npublished report when it considered the buildings in 1988;\n(b) whether that material was drawn to its attention by GGAT, the planning\nauthority or the Royal Commission; and\n(c) if neither can now be established, that Cadw say so in terms.\n\nI do not say this material required the building to be listed. I say that\nthe conclusion recorded in December 1988, that the site was not of\nsufficient archaeological interest, was reached against a professional\nrecord that already existed and is still held by the national museum today.\n\n6. The National Museum attribution (matter H)\n\nThe GGAT assessment of August 1990, which Cadw supplied to me on 21 May,\nstates that \"it is likely that some medieval ironwork which is held by the\nNational Museum of Wales was discovered under the rear wing c 1880 (RCAHMW\n1988).\"\n\nThe museum's disclosure allows that sentence to be tested, and the position\nis more precise than either of us has previously put it. The museum does\nhold medieval ironwork from this site — knife blades, arrowheads, a buckle\nand a pair of compasses within accession 82.44H — but as excavated material\nfrom 1979, not as an 1880 discovery beneath the rear wing. Its searches\nfound no accession, donation or deposit answering the c.1880 provenance at\nall. The museum's own explanation, given in its disclosure, is that objects\nrecorded as found at Church Farm, Llandough in 1858 and donated in 1963\nunder accession 63.24 \"could well be the basis for such a local\nstory/tradition\".\n\nI therefore no longer ask Cadw to accept that the attribution is\nuncorroborated in the round. I ask, more narrowly, whether Cadw holds\nanything supporting the c.1880 rear-wing provenance beyond the GGAT\nsentence it forwarded, and whether it will ask that the derived record note\nthe museum's findings rather than continue to carry the 1880 attribution\nunqualified.\n\n7. Correcting the record (matter H)\n\nYou directed me to Heneb as manager of the HER, which was reasonable. The\nonly substantive reply I have had from Heneb is its statement of 22 May\nthat it is not subject to FOI as a limited company; a schedule I sent on 19\nSeptember remains outstanding.\n\nThe museum's disclosure now gives a firm anchor for what the record should\nshow. Accession 95.56H comprises the material from the Cotswold\nArchaeological Trust excavation of 1994, donated by Ideal Homes Wales Ltd,\nand its locality is recorded in the museum's own collections database as\n\"Great House Farm Llandough\" at ST 1681 7331 — the grid reference carried\nby the historic environment record for this site. That accession runs to\nseveral hundred sets of early medieval human remains from this ground.\n\nAs the statutory duty to keep historic environment records rests with the\nWelsh Ministers, I ask:\n(a) which body is responsible for correcting an inaccurate or incomplete\nhistoric environment record;\n(b) what Cadw's own role is where the record is managed by Heneb; and\n(c) what Cadw will do if the entry for this site (GGAT02038s) is not\ncorrected to reflect the 1979 and 1994 excavations and the accessions\narising from them.\n\nCorrection to my letter of 20 September\n\nI said [email redacted] had rejected my correspondence on three occasions.\nHaving checked properly, it rejected messages on at least eight occasions\nbetween January and September 2026: 23 January; 9 May (twice); 17 May; 10\nAugust; 11 August; 29 August; and 17 September. Separate failures on 29\nAugust and 17 September came from the retired address [email redacted].\nI correct this because I have asked Cadw to distinguish what is established\nfrom what is inferred, and the same standard applies to me.\n\nAddition to the outcomes at section 9\n\n6. A written acknowledgement that the 21 May undertaking was not reported\non, and that Cadw's accounts of the 1988 assessment have varied.\n7. A single statement of what can and cannot now be established about the\n1988 decisions, which my family can rely on and cite.\n8.

These records were identified during searches undertaken in connection with the earlier request but were not considered to fall within the scope of that request, which concerned a specific reported discovery.\n\nWe have now reviewed those records for the purposes of your new request.\n\nAttached are copies of the relevant records. Certain information has been redacted from the disclosed records under section 40(2) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000, where it comprises the personal data of third parties. Disclosure of that information would contravene the data protection principles set out in UK data protection legislation.\n\nTo assist interpretation, we have also included a brief descriptor for each record, together with any available reference or catalogue information held within the Museum's records.\n\nFurther to these documents, we have also identified some publicly available records which I have referenced below.\n\nAn Early-medieval Monastic Cemetery at Llandough, Glamorgan: Excavations in 1994: Medieval Archaeology: Vol 49 , No 1 - Get Access<https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/epdf/10.1179/007660905x54044?needAccess=true>\n\nHighlight 5: Llandough early medieval cemetery, Glamorgan (1994) - Cotswold Archaeology<https://cotswoldarchaeology.co.uk/highlight-5-llandough-early-medieval-cemetery-glamorgan-1994/>\n\nPlease note that the provision of these records should not be taken as indicating any association between them and the discovery you have described in FOI 2026-024.

I do not consider the response sufficient because it appears that the searches were conducted too narrowly around the later description of a \"medieval visor, lance, helmet or other item of armour\", rather than around the underlying historical discovery at Great House Farm itself.\n\nThe issue I am investigating is a reported nineteenth-century discovery at Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough. My understanding from contemporary or near-contemporary newspaper and historical accounts is that the discovery was described as involving the remains of a Roman soldier, with associated remains and objects. The dating and description of the individual objects as \"medieval\" may therefore itself be inaccurate, or may represent a later conflation or retelling of the original discovery.\n\nYour response is particularly significant because it states:\n\n<\"Our searches identified records relating to ... other archaeological discoveries recorded at Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough. These records do not relate to, nor are they otherwise associated with, the discovery described in your request. We have therefore not considered them to fall within the scope of this request.\">\n\nI respectfully challenge that approach.\n\nThe central question is precisely whether the discovery described in later historical accounts can be identified, corroborated, corrected or explained through the Museum's records concerning archaeological discoveries at Great House Farm. If the Museum has identified records relating to other discoveries at the same historically significant site, it is not sufficient simply to conclude internally that they are unrelated without disclosing what those discoveries are, when they were recorded, and the basis upon which that conclusion was reached.\n\nI therefore request that the internal review reconsider the scope of my request and undertake searches using, at minimum, the following terms and concepts:\n\n- Great House Farm\n- Ty Mawr\n- Llandough\n- Llandough, Cardiff\n- Roman soldier\n- Roman burial\n- Roman grave\n- Roman remains\n- human remains\n- skeleton\n- horse remains\n- equine remains\n- soldier and horse\n- cavalry burial\n- military burial\n- grave goods\n- Roman military equipment\n- visor\n- helmet\n- lance\n- spear\n- armour\n- archaeological discovery\n- nineteenth-century discovery\n- 1870 and adjacent years\n\nPlease also search for relevant records under alternative historical place-name indexing, donor names, findspot descriptions, parish names and catalogue terminology where the precise modern name \"Great House Farm\" may not have been used.\n\nMost importantly, I ask that you disclose sufficient information about the \"other archaeological discoveries\" which your searches identified at Great House Farm to enable me to understand and assess the Museum's conclusion that they are unrelated. This should include, so far as held:\n\n1. A description or title of each relevant discovery or record.\n2. The approximate date of the discovery or record.\n3. The nature of the material or remains involved.\n4. Any accession number, catalogue number or archival reference.\n5. The recorded provenance or findspot.\n6. Any dating attributed to the discovery.\n7. The basis upon which Amgueddfa Cymru concluded that each record was unrelated to the nineteenth-century discovery described in my request.\n\nI am not asking the Museum to create new archaeological opinions or undertake speculative research. I am asking for recorded information which has already been identified during the searches and which directly concerns archaeological discoveries at the specific site named in my request.\n\nIf the Museum maintains that any of those records fall outside the original scope, then please treat this email additionally as a refined request for the recorded information identified above.\n\nI would also ask the reviewer to consider whether the original response gave insufficient weight to the possibility that the historical account may have inaccurately dated or described the find. A search which excludes Roman, nineteenth-century, burial and equine terminology risks missing the very records capable of establishing what was actually discovered beneath Great House Farm.\n\nGiven that your searches have already identified records concerning archaeological discoveries at Great House Farm itself, I would be grateful for a full reconsideration and disclosure of the recorded information requested above.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Tue, 25 Aug 2026, 04:25 FOI Requests, <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler,\n\nThank you for your request for information received on 27 July 2026 concerning records relating to a reported discovery at Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough, including a soldier, horse remains and items described as a visor and lance.\n\nAmgueddfa Cymru has undertaken searches of its collections management systems, accession records and associated documentation.\n\nWe have not identified any records relating to the acquisition, accession, donation, transfer or deposit of a medieval visor, lance, helmet or other item of armour associated with Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough.

I have carefully considered this point. However, when assessing whether information is held for the purposes of the Freedom of Information Act 2000, the relevant issue is not whether every conceivable search term has been used, but whether the authority has undertaken searches that are reasonable and proportionate in the circumstances and reasonably likely to identify relevant information if held.\n\nYour request concerned a specific reported discovery at a named location. Accordingly, the location identified in the request was used as the primary search criterion. Searches were undertaken across Amgueddfa Cymru's information holdings where records relating to acquisitions, accessions, archaeological finds, provenance information and associated correspondence would reasonably be expected to be held. This included collections management systems, accession records, archived documentation, shared electronic records and other organisational record repositories.\n\nRecords identified through those searches were reviewed by collections staff and the FOI team to determine whether they related to the reported discovery described in your request. As the search methodology was location-based rather than focused on a particular object type, archaeological period or interpretation, it was reasonably likely of identifying relevant records regardless of whether associated material had been recorded as Roman, medieval or otherwise.  I have therefore considered your suggestion that later historical accounts may have inaccurately described the nature, date or attribution of the reported discovery. I am satisfied that this possibility would not have affected the outcome of the searches undertaken.\n\nI have also considered whether broader keyword searches would have been appropriate. Given the scale and diversity of Amgueddfa Cymru's collections and records, generic terms such as \"horse\", \"burial\" or \"skeleton\" would retrieve large volumes of records relating to many different sites and periods and would not provide a reliable or proportionate means of locating records relating to a specific reported discovery at a named location. I am satisfied that the location-based search strategy adopted was the most appropriate and proportionate approach.\n\nThe searches undertaken did not identify any records relating to:\n* the acquisition, accession, donation, transfer or deposit of a visor, lance, helmet, armour or related objects associated with the discovery described in your request;\n* associated human or animal remains connected with that discovery;\n* reburial records relating to that discovery; or\n* excavation reports, discovery reports or watching-brief records relating to the discovery described in your request.\n\nHaving reviewed both the scope of the original request and the searches undertaken, I am satisfied on the balance of probabilities that, if information relating to the reported discovery were held by Amgueddfa Cymru, those searches would have been likely to identify it.\n\nYou also raised concerns regarding the reference in the original response to other archaeological records identified during the course of the searches. Those records were reviewed and were not considered to relate to, or otherwise be associated with, the reported discovery described in your request. However, I can confirm that this aspect has been subject to further consideration and a separate response will be issued in relation to those records.\n\nI therefore uphold the original conclusion that Amgueddfa Cymru does not hold recorded information falling within the scope of your request.\n\nThis concludes Amgueddfa Cymru's internal review process. If you remain dissatisfied, you may complain to the Information Commissioner's Office under section 50 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000.\n\n\nCofion cynnes,\n\n[A picture containing text, tableware, plate, dishware  Description automatically generated]\nFOI Team\n[cid:image002.png@01DD4A6D.9E375520]\n[email redacted]<[email redacted]>\namgueddfa.cymru<applewebdata://288FE56C-5BFC-474C-ADB3-A1017EF25E69/amgueddfa.cymru> | museum.wales<applewebdata://288FE56C-5BFC-474C-ADB3-A1017EF25E69/museum.wales>\n\nRhif elusen | Charity number 525774\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]>\nSent: 26 August 2026 07:24\nTo: FOI Requests <[email redacted]>\nSubject: Re: FOI - 2026-024 - Great House Farm, Llandough\n\n\nThis email comes from outside the organisation.\n\nDo not click links or open attachments unless it is an email you expected to receive.\nDear FOI Team,\n\nThank you for your response.\n\nI am requesting an internal review of the handling of my request.

Find a Property Support (Sandra, 21\nSeptember 2026, ref 260919-6726246) has confirmed that WA240304 is not a\ncurrent title number and that no copy of that register is available on that\nservice. That is why I am writing to you, as the officer who has already\nidentified the historic file.\n\nI have also already paid for a hand full of official copies and related\nland documents in this matter. I am asking you to issue, by email to\n[email redacted], unofficial or official copies of the below items\nfrom your 30 July schedule, and to waive the information-services fee for\nthis request, more so to make this all less problematic and cumberson.\nJustice delayed is justice denied.

Letter from Linklaters & Paines (undated) to Land Registry\n\nPlease also send the 1971 abstract of title if it survives, whether as a\nseparate document or as part of item 17.\n\nI ask for the fee to be waived because:\n- these documents cannot be bought on the public website for the closed\ntitle;\n- you have already retrieved and, as of February 2026, scanned the historic\npaper files;\n- I have already incurred repeated official-copy fees on the live title and\nrelated records;\n- Stephen Doughty MP and the Chief Land Registrar are already seized of\nthis file;\n- the request is confined to documents you have listed as still held.\n\nThis is not a request to reopen the stage 2 complaint concluded by Mr Gill\non 25 May 2026. I am not asking you to determine ownership. I am asking for\ncopies of records you have already said exist.\n\nIf you will not waive the fee or issue the copies by email, please say so\nin terms, confirm that each numbered item above is still held, and state\nthe exact OC2 wording and address so the application can go in the post\nwithout a further inventory letter.\n\nPlease reply to this email.\n\nIn light of land registry maintaining its position no mistake was made. And\nyour confidence in the 1987 ruling. I'm trying my best to deduce if either\nI am mistaken or BP commited purgergy and/or concealment when registering\nour land parcel in their names and registering.\n\nI'm 3 decades into my career in defence cyber and electronic warfare and\nI'm the son of Buckler in BP vs Buckler 1987. This is also my birthland.\nAnd I have 2 decades of evidence collected. All of which I've had A.I\nstudy.\n\nThe truth is always somewhere in the middle I guess. So perhaps yourselves,\nBP and my family are all in some ways correct and I other ways incorrect.\nEstablishing that is a key point of this whole excercise.\n\nI also suspect fraud, concealment and Government involvement. GGAT actually\nworked for both the government and BP in this case. UK Gov were also a\nmajor shareholder in BP until 1987 too. It's not such an outlandish\nallegation to make. The question is more to what extent the injustice\nagainst my family goes.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a0c4f015168ab78","subject":"RE: Ty Mawr/ Great House, Llandough, Cardiff","name":"RE: Ty Mawr/ Great House, Llandough, Cardiff","date":"2026-09-21T17:07:34Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0c4f015168ab78.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0bda2634ae66e1-ty-mawr-great-house-llandough-cardiff","scopeTopics":["rcahmw"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["rcahmw"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0bda2634ae66e1","direction":"received","from":"NMR Enquiries","institutions":[{"id":"rcahmw","name":"RCAHMW (Royal Commission)"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0c4f015168ab78.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Prynhawn da.\n\nDiolch am eich ymholiad rhyddid gwybodaeth.

On the Welsh Language Standards point raised in your signature — I am Welsh and I would be glad to receive correspondence in Welsh, but please use whichever language is quicker for you. I do not want language to delay anything, and I will not treat a Welsh reply as needing translation.\n>\n> This is a request under section 1 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and, so far as the records concern the historic environment, under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004.\n>\n> **First, a point of housekeeping. Nothing in this email amends, clarifies, narrows or withdraws my requests of 8, 15 or 17 September.** Those stand exactly as made and their statutory periods run from their own dates. This is an additional request, and I would not want it to be treated as restarting any clock. On my reckoning:\n>\n> - **8 September 2026** — FOI/EIR on R. F. Suggett's December 1988 unpublished records, H. J. Thomas's 1974 survey, the source of the \"held by the National Museum of Wales\" attribution, and copy correspondence with Amgueddfa Cymru, GGAT, Cadw and the Vale. Acknowledged by you the same day, twenty working days. **Due Tuesday 6 October 2026.** No reference number issued; nothing yet supplied.\n> - **15 September 2026** — catalogue check on Emergency Recording case **RCS2/1/1777**, filed under Great House (Ty Mawr), Bonvilston, where the material described is the pattern one would expect for the Llandough demolition. **Due Tuesday 13 October 2026.**\n> - **17 September 2026** — whether the Commission was notified, consulted or asked to record the farmhouse before its demolition on 6 December 1988. **Due Thursday 15 October 2026.**\n>\n> The second and third received only the automated enquiry acknowledgement, which cites fifteen working days and notes that the priority search service is suspended. I understand the staffing position and I am not complaining about it. But both emails ask for recorded information, and a request for recorded information is a request under section 1 whether or not it is labelled as one. **Please confirm that all three are logged as FOIA / EIR requests and let me have the reference numbers.** If they are currently sitting in the research-enquiry queue rather than the information-rights queue, that is easily fixed now and much harder to fix later.\n>\n> **On the number of requests.** I am conscious that this is my fifth email in twelve days. It is not an attempt to burden the Commission. Each request arose from a document I only found after sending the last one — the GGAT 1990 assessment led me to Suggett, Suggett's own note led me to the lost correspondence, and a Coflein search led me to RCS2/1/1777. I am content for all of them to be answered together in a single response if that is more efficient for you, and if the whole exceeds the appropriate limit under section 12 I will happily tell you which items to do first rather than have anything refused outright. Please just ask.\n>\n> **The site.** Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough (Llandochau) juxta Penarth, Vale of Glamorgan — the community of St Dochdwy's Church and Llandough Hospital. **Not** Llandough near Cowbridge, and **not** Ty Mawr, Bonvilston (Cadw 13603), which is a different and still-standing house. NPRN 20182. ST 1681 7331. HER GGAT02038s. Now Church View Close. Outbuildings demolished 30 November 1988; farmhouse 6 December 1988.\n>\n> Holdings I am aware of include file references **NA/GL/88/49** and **NA/GL/89/208**, NMR site file material catalogued on Coflein (a plan with additions dated 12 December 1988, a descriptive account, a press cutting), Inventory working papers for Glamorgan Inventory site 425, and the disputed ERC bundle RCS2/1/1777.\n>\n> **Why this matters to me.** The farm was my family's. The immediate reason for this request is a line in your own records: R. F. Suggett's December 1988 assessment notes that *\"Correspondence between C. N. Johns and Mrs Buckler, Great House Farm, has been lost from the file since 1986/87\"*, and that *\"There is apparently no photographic record of the site.\"* Mrs Buckler was my relative. I want the correspondence if it survives, the record of how it came to be lost if it does not, and the rest of the file either way. I am not asking the Commission for a view on title or on the legality of the demolition, and I would not expect one.\n>\n> **Information requested**\n>\n> Please supply copies, so far as held:\n>\n> 1. A full contents list or file schedule for **NA/GL/88/49** and **NA/GL/89/208**, itemising every document on each file, whether or not the documents themselves are disclosed.\n> 2. Copies of all documents on those two files.\n> 3. **The file cover, front sheet or wrapper of each file**, and any enclosure list, loans register, issue slip, reader-request record or file-tracking entry attached to or kept for them.\n> 4. Every record concerning the **C. N. Johns / Mrs Buckler correspondence** recorded as lost since 1986/87: any surviving copy, draft, extract, summary, index entry or catalogue stub; any contemporaneous or later note of its loss; any record of a search for it; any record of who consulted, borrowed or handled the file between 1 January 1985 and 31 December 1988; and any internal or external correspondence about its absence. If no such record exists, please say so expressly rather than leaving it unaddressed.\n> 5. The Commission's **retention and disposal schedule** applicable to site files and correspondence files in the 1980s and today, and confirmation whether any records relating to this site have been destroyed under it, and if so when and under what authority.\n> 6. Whether the files listed above have been **reviewed for transfer to, or retention from, The National Archives or the Glamorgan Archives**, and the outcome of any such review.\n> 7. All **Inventory working papers, drafts, card-index entries and record cards** for the site, including those for Glamorgan Inventory site 425.\n> 8. All **photographs** of the site in any format — prints, negatives, transparencies, digital images, and any oblique or vertical aerial coverage of Llandough showing the farm at any date — whether or not catalogued, with their catalogue entries. Given Suggett's 1988 note that there is apparently no photographic record, **please state expressly whether the Commission holds none**, and whether any images sit within RCS2/1/1777 or in uncatalogued Emergency Recording material.\n> 9. Confirmation, from the location plan, map copies and photographs inside **RCS2/1/1777**, whether that bundle is Bonvilston or Llandough. If Llandough, please re-link it to NPRN 20182 and supply a contents list and copies. Please also check adjacent case **RCS2/1/1776**. *(This is my request of 15 September, restated here for completeness only — it stands on its own date.)*\n> 10. Any record of a site visit, watching brief, recording exercise or emergency recording carried out or considered before, during or after the demolition; any notification of the proposed demolition, from whom and on what date; and any decision **not** to record the building together with the reasons recorded for it. The building was not listed — Cadw inspected on 29 July 1988 and did not list it — so I make no assumption that the Commission was entitled to notice. What I would like to know is what the Commission's own criteria for initiating Emergency Recording were at the time, and whether this site was considered against them. Contemporary reports of 3 December 1988 stated that Cadw was considering emergency listing and that discussion with the Commission was being arranged. The house came down three days later.\n> 11. The **1974 survey by H. J. Thomas**, his site notes of 26 April 1974 and 12 December 1988, and any measured drawings, sketches, plans or elevations, published or unpublished.\n> 12. **R. F. Suggett's December 1988 records in full** — every page, card, continuation sheet, annotation and enclosure — not only the passages concerning the c.1880 find.\n> 13. Any record of the source of the statement that the c.1880 ironwork \"is held by the National Museum of Wales\", and any later file that confirms, corrects or withdraws that attribution.\n> 14. All correspondence between the Commission and any of the following concerning this site, 1970–1995: Cadw or the Welsh Office; the Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust; Vale of Glamorgan Borough Council; BP Properties Limited or its agents, including Debenham Tewson & Chinnocks; Persimmon Homes (Wales) Limited; Ideal Homes Wales Limited; Amgueddfa Cymru; any Member of Parliament; and any member of my family.\n> 15. Any accession records for material deposited with the Commission by GGAT, Cadw, Cotswold Archaeology or any other body relating to this site.\n>\n> **Practicalities.** Please reply by email to this address. I cannot attend in person and I am not seeking anything that attracts a charge. Scans are fine. Where an item is already on Coflein, a stable reference and link is enough **provided** you confirm the online record is complete. If any item is held elsewhere — The National Archives, Glamorgan Archives, Cadw, Heneb or Amgueddfa Cymru — please name the body and reference so I can apply there directly, which I will.\n>\n> Finally, so that it is on record from the outset rather than raised later: please let me have the name and contact details of the officer responsible for information rights at the Commission, and confirmation of the internal review procedure, so that I know where to direct any review request if one becomes necessary.\n>\n> With thanks for your patience with a long list.\n>\n> Yn gywir / Yours faithfully,\n>\n> Sion Buckler\n> [email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n\n--"},{"id":"gm-1a0c1e743d10b2b2","subject":"Re: Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough — request for information under FOIA 2000 / EIR 2004","name":"Re: Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough — request for information under FOIA 2000 / EIR 2004","date":"2026-09-21T02:59:13Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0c1e743d10b2b2.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0c1e36871ebfd1-great-house-farm-t-mawr-llandough-request-for-information-under-foia-2000-eir-2004","scopeTopics":["llandough"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["llandough"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0c1e36871ebfd1","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"llandough","name":"Llandough Community Council"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0c1e743d10b2b2.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dr Misra,\n\nThank you for replying, and for doing so promptly and at a weekend.

Whether the Council holds any recorded information created after the\n2002 deposit — minutes, correspondence, reports, emails, photographs or\nfiles of any kind — concerning Great House Farm (Ty Mawr) / Church View\nClose, the village green in front of St Dochdwy's including registered\ngreen VG 41, or the roadside verge by the churchyard wall.\n\n2. Whether the Council holds any photographs, postcards or images of the\nfarm, the barn, the green or the church surroundings, of any date.\n\n3. Whether the Council holds any recorded information showing what, if\nanything, transferred to it from Penarth Town Council at the 1982\nreorganisation, and any recorded information identifying where the pre-1982\nLlandough community records were deposited.\n\nIf the answer to any of these is that no such information is held, I would\nbe content with a short statement to that effect — but I do need it stated.\nSection 1(1)(a) of the Act requires the Council to confirm or deny whether\nthe information is held.\n\nSection 10 (and regulation 5 of the EIR) allows twenty working days from\nreceipt, which on my request of 20 September 2026 I calculate as 16 October\n2026.\n\nIf the Council is refusing, section 17 (and regulation 14) requires a\nwritten refusal notice identifying the exemption or exception relied on;\nsection 17(7) requires the Council to give particulars of any complaints\nprocedure it operates, or to state that it has none, and to notify me of my\nright to apply to the Information Commissioner; and regulation 11 gives a\nright to an internal review of any refusal under the EIR.\n\n\"We have nothing more to add\" does not meet those requirements. If the\nperiod passes without a compliant response I will have no option but to\ncomplain to the Information Commissioner.\n\nPART TWO — MATTERS FOR THE COUNCIL'S DISCRETION\n\nThese are not part of the request above and carry no deadline. They are\nsimply things I would be grateful for.\n\nA. I am not asking for the name or contact details of any individual. I am\nasking whether the Council would be willing to pass my details to any\nformer member, former clerk or long-standing resident who might remember\nthe village between the 1950s and the 1990s, leaving it entirely to them\nwhether to contact me. I appreciate the Council may have data protection or\nadministrative reasons for declining, and I would not press it.\n\nB. Whether the Council would be willing to table this correspondence at a\nmeeting and minute it. I am content for it to be tabled in full.\n\nC. Whether the Council would consider, in due course, whether an\ninterpretation board or a plaque near the green would be appropriate. The\nexcavation on the land beneath Church View Close recorded 1,026 burials,\ndescribed in the published report as by far the largest early medieval\nburial population so far recovered from Wales, above a Roman villa and an\nIron Age roundhouse. That history belongs to Llandough as much as to my\nfamily, and there is nothing on the ground that records it. I would be glad\nto give the Council or the community a short talk on the documentary\nrecord, without charge, if that would be useful.\n\nI should be grateful for a response to items 1 to 3 by 16 October 2026.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/ Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\n\nOn Sun, 20 Sept 2026, 18:31 Mo Misra, <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler,\n>\n> Thanks for your email of 20th September 2026.\n>\n> I note that our Clerk, Paul Egan, has already directed you to all the\n> information we have on the matter as indicated in paragraph 6 of your\n> email.\n>\n> We have nothing more to add.\n>\n> Best regards\n>\n> Dr M C Misra,\n> Chair Llandough Community Council"},{"id":"gm-1a0c1cb194cd5fc4","subject":"Re: FOI/EIR request - Case Ref/ 00211463 — clarification and refinement of request","name":"Re: FOI/EIR request - Case Ref/ 00211463 — clarification and refinement of request","date":"2026-09-21T02:28:27Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0c1cb194cd5fc4.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0c1c87a6f1717d-foi-eir-request-case-ref-00211463-clarification-and-refinement-of-request","scopeTopics":["vale-foi"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["vale-foi"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0c1c87a6f1717d","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"vale-foi","name":"Vale of Glamorgan Council"}],"refs":["00211463"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0c1cb194cd5fc4.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Freedom of Information Officer,\n\nCase Ref: 00211463 — request received 17 September 2026\n\nI write to clarify and refine the above request while it remains open,\nhaving now examined the original manuscript of the planning officer's\nreport rather than a transcription.

A\nresponse that \"no additional information has been identified\" would not\naddress a request for annexes that the Council's own report records as\nattached.\n\nI note the Council's letter of 11 September 2026 in a related matter, which\nstated that \"further historical documentation has been found... not\nnecessarily Council documentation but is nonetheless in the Council's\npossession\".

I've therefore included a photo below.\nWhile the drain has helped reduce the problem significantly, issues remain.\n\nFor example, a leak on the Brook Green footpath has forced the Community Council to close the route.\n\nThis is problematic, as many residents of Willowmere and Llandough Hill who do not drive rely on the path to access bus stops on Penlan Road.\n\nWhile the Community Council are responsible for this stretch of land, it's clear the Vale Highways Department's works may well have diverted the water leak onto Brook Green.\n\nThey must therefore play their part in resolving the situation.\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/r/1GH3Nzx1q3/\nI raised the Llandough Hill water leaks again this week at the Council's Resources Scrutiny Committee.\n\nAn extra £17,000 has recently been allocated to flood risk management on Llandough Hill in the Council's capital budget.\n\nThe pressure our community placed on the Council resulted in this money being allocated.\n\nBut given the extent of the problem, I question if it is enough. You can view my comments in the meeting below.\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/v/1BwTiNDGbZ/\n\nPreventing water leaks, and their associated impacts such as damaging road surfaces and posing an ice risk, is a key part of Our Plan for Llandough.\n\nOur efforts have secured investment that has helped reduce the problem. It would not have happened without us.\n\nBut there is still much more to do.\n\nWe must double down our efforts and work together to resolve the problem once and for all.\n\n\n**\n------------------------------------------------------------\n\nCommunity Hero: Rachel Green\n\nYou may have seen Llandough resident Rachel Green in the news this week, following her life saving heroics.\n\nRachel was on her way to the gym when she saw a man, Alan Hale, collapsed on the side of the road.\n\nShe immediately stopped her car and performed CPR, saving Alan's life.\n\nRachel has now been honoured by the Royal Humane Society with its Resuscitation Certificate.\n\nIt goes without saying her award is fully deserved and our whole community is exceptionally proud.\n\nYou can read more about Rachel's story by clicking the link below.\nRead Rachel's story (https://www.penarthtimes.co.uk/news/26535649.woman-honoured-saving-mans-life-cpr-shock/)\n\nPenarth Road slip hazard\n\nEarlier this week, I received another complaint from a resident about the leak on Penarth Road.\n\nAlgae growing in the discharge is causing a slip hazard, posing a danger to pedestrians.\n\nAs you'll recall, this is not a Council manhole. It's the responsibility of BT.\n\nI raised the slip hazard with the Council, who confirmed they're continuing to push BT to resolve it.\n\nThe Council have also provided assurances they'll carry out regular sweeping to clear the algae.\n\nThis is not sustainable in the long term, and the leak must be repaired.\n\nI'll keep pushing all responsible authorities on this.\n\nCommunity drop-in event:\n20th October\n\nOur next community drop-in event takes place at the Merrie Harrier on 20th October.\n\nLike the last one, it'll start at 7.00pm.\n\nThe pub is a key asset to our community.\n\nTracey and the team do a lot for us - help return the favour by lending them your support.\n\nYou can see some of their midweek offers below!\n\nhttps://www.facebook.com/share/r/1EM9z5wbMs/\n\nOur Plan for Llandough!\n\n\nAs your councillor, I'm working with you all to secure a better future for Llandough. Together, we have a plan to deliver for the village.\n\nOur plan is making Llandough better by:\n\n1. Sorting out the parking problems\n2. Stamping out dog fouling\n3. Repairing our roads\n4.

And that a grave injustice \n> does appear to have occurred to my family and, as a matter of public \n> interest, others too. To be brutally honest I think my case shows signs \n> we are in a landmark bubble and a land-market crash is coming. This \n> racket of converting amputee, disabled widow pensioners' occupancy of \n> our lands from freehold to permissive (with ambiguity and \n> misinterpretation and fraud and concealment) possession orders and \n> conveyance, stealth/secrecy etc. -- was not a sustainable viable way of \n> annexing. You can fool some of the people some of the time. But not all \n> of the people all of the time.\n> \n> But this is a request for co-operation with reconstructing history, not \n> a complaint. And history which has already been driven to lands many \n> thousands of miles away, so it can remain buried in the British's \n> wardrobe of skeletons as you so wish.\n> \n> With 99% of British MPs refusing to sign EDM 2025 condemning \n> decapitating Christians, I think Argentina is an apt location for my \n> replica manorial house, notwithstanding Michael Jones who founded the \n> settlement in Patagonia had followers who even nicknamed the reason for \n> it as being the \"decapitation committee\" here on the British Isles (a \n> century after we acquired my birth home in Llandough, so some time in \n> the late 1700s).\n> \n> In the interests of being straight with you: I had difficulty getting \n> replies from the Vale ward member, Councillor George Carroll, and \n> earlier this year I made a formal complaint to the Vale of Glamorgan \n> about that. Which I was surprised at after he got thrown out of a \n> council meeting for being against the City of Sanctuary scheme. My \n> motto is, if you are not on a government watchlist by now, you should \n> be ashamed of yourself.\n> \n> I am already resigned to flying in and out of this small formerly pale \n> island, like it is another military tour of the Middle East. I actually \n> do not harbour much ill will; I am just sad it has gone to the dogs and \n> half expect a nuclear strike, flood or crusade.\n> \n> My advice to my followers is not even to keep defending the \n> concentration work camps our hijacked towns and cities have been turned \n> into.

I have since\nestablished that it never reached you.\n\nIt was addressed to [email redacted], which rejected it — my mail server\nrecorded \"message blocked… the address couldn't be found or is unable to\nreceive email.\" A copy addressed to [email redacted] also failed, that\ndomain having been decommissioned. The only addresses that accepted it were\n[email redacted] and [email redacted].\n\nThe latter is Cadw's visitor-services contact centre operated by Transport\nfor Wales, which replied on 18 September under reference #628635887 to say\nit had been passed to their complaints manager. That is plainly not the\nright destination for a complaint about a 1988 listing assessment, and I do\nnot want it pursued there. I would be grateful if that reference could be\nclosed.\nI should add that [email redacted] has now rejected correspondence from me on\nthree separate occasions — 23 January, 29 August and 17 September 2026. If\nthat address is still published anywhere as a contact point for Cadw, it\nmay be worth someone looking at.\n\nI am therefore re-serving the complaint on you directly, unchanged. The\ntext below is exactly as sent on 17 September. Please treat it as received\ntoday, and please let me have a complaint reference.\n\nTwo points of clarification, so that nothing is misread.\n\nFirst, this is not a further Freedom of Information request. I accept your\nemail of 4 September, in which you confirmed that Cadw has released all the\nrecords it holds concerning the 1988 listing decision, and I am not asking\nyou to produce documents you have already said no longer survive. I am\nconscious that I have made requests to Cadw and to the Welsh Government\nInformation Rights Unit since May of this year and that they have been\nanswered. My complaint is not that records are being withheld. It is about\nwhat can properly be established from the evidence that does survive, and\nabout whether Cadw's account distinguishes clearly enough between \"we\ncannot now establish this\" and \"this did not happen.\"\n\nSecond, I am treating this as stage one of the Welsh Government complaints\nprocess, not stage two. You directed me to that process on 4 September. I\nhave copied the Complaints Advice Team so that the complaint is logged and\ndated, but I am not asking for a formal investigation yet. I would rather\nCadw had the first opportunity to answer it. I will only escalate if the\nstage one response does not engage with the ten matters set out at section\n7 below.\n\nOne further matter, which I raise in the hope it is useful rather than as\npart of the complaint. Cadw's 1988 file is lost, but Cadw did not\ncorrespond with itself. Any letters Cadw wrote in 1988 about this building\nwere received by the Royal Commission, by Vale of Glamorgan Borough\nCouncil, and by the Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust, and copies may\nsurvive in their files even though yours have gone. I have requests with\nthe Royal Commission and with Heneb which cover exactly that. If either\nproduces Cadw correspondence you no longer hold, I will send it to you, as\nI said I would in August. I would rather Cadw's own record of this was\ncomplete than score a point off its being incomplete.\n\nI look forward to a complaint reference and to a substantive reply.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a0bda407bdaa9ab","subject":"Ty Mawr/ Great House, Llandough, Cardiff","name":"Ty Mawr/ Great House, Llandough, Cardiff","date":"2026-09-20T07:07:18Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0bda407bdaa9ab.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0bda2634ae66e1-ty-mawr-great-house-llandough-cardiff","scopeTopics":["rcahmw"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["rcahmw"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0bda2634ae66e1","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"rcahmw","name":"RCAHMW (Royal Commission)"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0bda407bdaa9ab.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Rhodri, dear colleagues,\n>\n> Diolch am eich cydnabyddiaeth ar 8 Medi.

It is not an attempt to burden the Commission. Each request\narose from a document I only found after sending the last one — the GGAT\n1990 assessment led me to Suggett, Suggett's own note led me to the lost\ncorrespondence, and a Coflein search led me to RCS2/1/1777. I am content\nfor all of them to be answered together in a single response if that is\nmore efficient for you, and if the whole exceeds the appropriate limit\nunder section 12 I will happily tell you which items to do first rather\nthan have anything refused outright.

The immediate\nreason for this request is a line in your own records: R. F. Suggett's\nDecember 1988 assessment notes that *\"Correspondence between C. N. Johns\nand Mrs Buckler, Great House Farm, has been lost from the file since\n1986/87\"*, and that *\"There is apparently no photographic record of the\nsite.\"* Mrs Buckler was my relative. I want the correspondence if it\nsurvives, the record of how it came to be lost if it does not, and the rest\nof the file either way. I am not asking the Commission for a view on title\nor on the legality of the demolition, and I would not expect one.\n>\n> **Information requested**\n>\n> Please supply copies, so far as held:\n>\n> 1.

The building was not listed — Cadw inspected\non 29 July 1988 and did not list it — so I make no assumption that the\nCommission was entitled to notice. What I would like to know is what the\nCommission's own criteria for initiating Emergency Recording were at the\ntime, and whether this site was considered against them.

I was born there. The site is now Church View\nClose.\n\nThat whole incident appears to stem from a 1955 possession order for a\nparcel of land east of the parcel we held freehold of. The order contained\nambiguity that was later misinterprited to make our occupancy of our parcel\nappear permissive, following our paper title copy being stolen. A 1962\npossession order for our parcel was created based on that but not enforced\non my disabled, widow grandmother. Who just had a leg amputated in 1955.\nInstead the interest in the 1962 order was conveyed from Western Ground\nRents to BP in 1969. BP altered the ordinance survey, shifting the\ndescriptor from their parcel onto my nans. And appending \"farm' to it. They\nagain made her occupancy appear pernissive in 1974 with their famous\nlicence letters. Then conveyed interest in that, again, to their own sister\ncompany in 1975. Not withstanding the possession of the 1962 order was\nquashed in 1974. Also in 1974 my nans ownership claim was not legally\nexstiguished and instead the court ajourned. In 1983 BP then quietly\nregistered our land in their names at the land registry, failing to\ndisclose my nans ownership claim, she also died in the 2 weeks she will\nhave had to challenge them. She had not been known to not challenge them in\ndecades of her campaigning. Land registry also didn't notify her/ us. BP\nthen merged our parcel into theirs, as my nan fought for her life and died.\nThe land registry wrote to the MP this week claiming not find anything\nwrong with the role they played in 1982/1983. .\n\nIn 1877 title became our families from Daniel Thomas & Son. But not until\n1928 when quarrying completed on the land. In 1916 Bute produced an\nagrictural tenancy for our family featuring our occupied parcel and a\nparcel to the east. The interest in this is what conveyed to Western Ground\nRents in 1938. And in 1939 they revised the agreement for the parcel east\nof ours. And excluded ours parcel from any tenancy due to the 1928 event\nand my great grandads registration of the freehold.\n\nThe 1877 - 1928 agreement and title deed was stolen from our home according\nto my late nans statement in these proceedings.\n\nWhen WGR saught possession of their parcel to the east of ours in 1955,\nthey exercised moral hazard to introduce ambiguity into the order,\nconsidering my nans vulnerable state (amputee, widow, pensioner, stolen\ntitle deed), which could have and did get later misinterprited to make my\nnans occupancy appear permissive. And Western Ground Rents the owner. Thus\nfabricating a defective title with the 1962 possession order for my nans\nparcel and through conveying that unenforced possession order to BP in\n1969. BPs permissive occupancy licence in 1974 and 1975 conveyance repeated\nthat process to make interest transfer and a title chain emerge, with no\nroot title.\n\nMr Paul Egan answered a request from me on 14 June this year. He searched\nthe Council's records, explained that the minute books from 1982 onward\nwere deposited with Glamorgan Archives in 2002, set out the section 21\nposition correctly, and pointed me to the Council's own pages on buildings\nof significance in the community. He also told me something I had not known\n— that before 1982 Llandough came under Penarth Town Council — which has\nopened a line of research I would otherwise have missed. I had written to\nhim in strong terms and he replied with courtesy and care anyway. I\nunderstand he has since retired after long service to the village. Please\npass on my thanks if you are able to. I am not asking the Council to\nrevisit his answer; it was a proper one.\n\nI am assembling a complete documentary and photographic record of my\nfamily's old manorial 10-bedroom birth and family home since 1667, at the\ncentre of that church you British built in the 1800s — I am interested in\neverything: planning, archaeology, land registration, family papers, oral\nmemory — all into a single, centralised searchable archive. So the actual\nfull story can be retold. Warts and all.\n\nPlease bear with me for the rest of my email. I was traumatised by our\nexperience being dispossessed in the 80's. We've seen no justice. My family\ndied challenging any of the false narrative. And the remaining alive won't\nspeak up. The State have tried covering this up and continue to do so for\ndecades too. I'm the first to try to bring this all to light.\n\nMy intent with all this is a Welsh heritage project I have underway in\nPatagonia, Argentina, where a replica of my old farm is to be constructed\nas a museum.\n\nIn Argentina they are different from you British currently occupying us\nWelsh in Wales, in that they celebrate and don't supress or conceal our\nWelsh heritage, culture, language, history. It is very refreshing for me\nthere, as an indigenous Briton who was brutally torn from my ancestral\nbirthland in 1988, in what can only be described as ethnic cleansing. I am\nnot even exaggerating; the particulars of the horrors done to my family\nthere make reconstructing the full chronology very challenging. It's not\nnew what Brit'ish do to indigenous people globally, or the Welsh\nhistorically. But we were maybe the last to be annexed, colonised and\nlooted in such a systematic and brutal way.\n\nIt would be passable if we were sincerely squatters being evicted as the\npress reported. Or even courts believed. But the land BP possessed they\nhad. We lost the parcel east of ours fair and square. They came to occupy\nour neighbouring land and home too out of greed, to build Church View\nClose. Using force, stealth/ secrecy and license. The destinction would\nhave been clear had BP not registered our land in their names and merged\nours into theirs, in such a clandestine way, in 1982/1983.\n\nSo much of my family's and people's history and heritage in Llandough\ncontinues to be completely covered up in lieu of those 20 characterless\n(Church View Close) concentration work-camp houses, without so much as a\npark-bench plaque to commemorate any of the following:\n\n- the 1,026 medieval burials\n- Marconi staying with us while inventing radio\n- Peerless Joe Driscoll fighting his first fight in our barn\n- the Roman villa\n- Christian monastery\n- 2,200-year-old Celtic roundhouse\n\nthe list goes on. The LiDAR scans etc.\n\nI find it abhorrent that the Llandough website history page does not\nmention any of this either. I know the British are proud of their No.1\ninvention: the concentration work camp — but it is sad witnessing all our\ntowns and cities being turned into them. Not that I am on the British Isles\nmuch, except occasionally as a sort of autochthonous Django Unchained.\nSeeing all the voters being imported to keep the kinds of governors,\nPrincess of Darkness and demons the Bible warns us about in power does not\neven sadden me anymore. I think crusades may happen sooner as a result, and\ntherein resides my hope for my small pale island.\n\nIt was not always such a demonic realm for us natives, nor our\nnon-indigenous actual guests, friends and family in Llandough. My family\nlived in the main manorial house in Llandough consecutively since 1667\nuntil the British's highly illegal, unlawful and unconstitutional siege and\ntheft of our stronghold in 1988. We still appear to own the land under\nChurch View Close. You British only awarded yourselves possession of our\nChristian stronghold. Possession being the weapon of choice of a demonic\nrealm. When I was a soldier in Cyprus I would enjoy watching the UN hand\nback stolen, occupied land to the Greeks and Turks. I look forward to that\noccurring when Wales literally, not figuratively, decolonises. Or Scotland\nrenounces. Or Ireland unites. I see the British State as more of a\nterrorist organisation than the IRA, and I think it is the British State we\nneed to stop harbouring on our motherland.\n\nIn the interim of revolution, I hold some faith in coalitions. Namely\nthanks to Councillor Chris Franks, my grandmother's old good friend of\ndecades, who at least acknowledged my email. And that a grave injustice\ndoes appear to have occurred to my family and, as a matter of public\ninterest, others too. To be brutally honest I think my case shows signs we\nare in a landmark bubble and a land-market crash is coming. This racket of\nconverting amputee, disabled widow pensioners' occupancy of our lands from\nfreehold to permissive (with ambiguity and misinterpretation and fraud and\nconcealment) possession orders and conveyance, stealth/secrecy etc. — was\nnot a sustainable viable way of annexing. You can fool some of the people\nsome of the time. But not all of the people all of the time.\n\nBut this is a request for co-operation with reconstructing history, not a\ncomplaint. And history which has already been driven to lands many\nthousands of miles away, so it can remain buried in the British's wardrobe\nof skeletons as you so wish.\n\nWith 99% of British MPs refusing to sign EDM 2025 condemning decapitating\nChristians, I think Argentina is an apt location for my replica manorial\nhouse, notwithstanding Michael Jones who founded the settlement in\nPatagonia had followers who even nicknamed the reason for it as being the\n\"decapitation committee\" here on the British Isles (a century after we\nacquired my birth home in Llandough, so some time in the late 1700s).\n\nIn the interests of being straight with you: I had difficulty getting\nreplies from the Vale ward member, Councillor George Carroll, and earlier\nthis year I made a formal complaint to the Vale of Glamorgan about that.\nWhich I was surprised at after he got thrown out of a council meeting for\nbeing against the City of Sanctuary scheme. My motto is, if you are not on\na government watchlist by now, you should be ashamed of yourself.\n\nI am already resigned to flying in and out of this small formerly pale\nisland, like it is another military tour of the Middle East. I actually do\nnot harbour much ill will; I am just sad it has gone to the dogs and half\nexpect a nuclear strike, flood or crusade.\n\nMy advice to my followers is not even to keep defending the concentration\nwork camps our hijacked towns and cities have been turned into. Instead I\nencourage soldiers under my command to enjoy exile or mass exodus. There is\nplenty in the British organisations' cells/camps and networks' own rules\nwhich permits corps and exodusers. That way everyone's happy.\n\nThe British State is not the first regime to go rogue. Terrorist\norganisations (now the official government) like in Afghanistan also have\nhostages and prisoners of war who are masochist submissives, like\nBritish/UK citizens. And it is a situationship that suits both parties. But\nnot something I would want to get in the middle of or encourage others to\nget in the middle of. I do not know why so many do.\n\nI am persuaded to organise veterans to attend funerals of casualties of the\ncivil war our infiltrated, hijacked and traitor-filled regimes waged on\nindigenous Britons, with its biological weapons, hybrid warfare, ethnic\ncleansing and so forth. And we simply wear our uniforms and salute the\ncasualties. It is some remedy for the grieving families who, even if\nspeaking out from the decades of being terrorised into silence, face\ndecades of being stonewalled from justice from the State. So I am all about\nthe peaceful, legal and lawful paths forward — as a bona fide, certified,\nexperienced military commander, leader and warfare professional.\n\nI have seen Councillor Carroll's recent social media posts standing in\nfront of the photograph of my old farm's only public photo that hangs in\nthe Merry Harrier pub. If it is in good faith and support I am glad.\nAnything less I would not be surprised. Only disappointed. But I extend the\nbenefit of the doubt with my farm case, because it is a complex case. Even\nin my profession as a seasoned cyber/electronic military warfare\nprofessional I find it colossal to navigate.\n\nWhat I would be grateful for from you who occupy and rule my land, in place\nof your Pharisee predecessors, is a coalition with counter-officers such as\nmyself.\n\nDoes your occupying forces/council hold any records that were created after\n2002 and therefore not part of the 2002 deposit, concerning our stolen,\noccupied Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr/Cedfin)/Church View Close land?\n\nAnd I should add: suspected, as I am still gathering evidence and\ninvestigating. Albeit it all looks damning for the British and many native\ntraitors already, and I am only scratching the surface of what happened in\nLlandough. My ancestral birthland would not be the first to be looted by\nthe British and I am doubtful it will be the last. Our SAS-looted treasures\nare actually now all captive in British museums. And our SAS-looted\nfurniture, all from Cardiff Castle, are also held hostage or in circulation\ntoo.\n\nMy focus and what I require of your Council, as but a humble (registered to\nvote) constituent of the home we got in Dinas Powys and have lived in since\nour land became illegally occupied by the British in 1988 — is the village\ngreen in front of St Dochdwy's — including registered village green VG 41,\nwhich your Council raised formally with the Vale when the Great House Farm\nsite came forward for planning in 1989.\n\nBy constituent I do mean I am happy to play the role of a member of society\nin a democracy. Albeit it is largely now pageantry and being made a mockery\nof in my estimation. I see something very different going on here, i.e. a\nterrorist/hostage situationship. And I do not play the role of a hostage or\nprisoner of war well — at all! Nor am I a masochist submissive and much\nlike kissing ring fingers or bending knees. My 22 in Oath ended in 2024\n(employed under the Vale of Glamorgan Council too, by some freak\ncoincidence). So I will thank you in advance not to ask weird stuff of me.\nI am nice until it is time not to be. And I believe we are all equal under\nlaw and God.\n\nMy family have endured enough force, stealth/secrecy and licence from the\nBritish in the 80s to last us a lifetime. And having been behind a machine\ngun in a helicopter in the Middle East, and trained on explosives and\nweapons and cyber/electronic warfare capabilities for my military career,\nwhich I left with full honours, I am well aware of how the British regime\noperates and human-farms and projects its force. I once had Britain's very\nown woke mind virus walking through my mind with its muddy boots. I hope\nyou all get better too.\n\nBetter your cell/network/camp just skip to bringing guns and trying to\nforce me at gunpoint if you demand anything of me that contrasts\nco-operation or coalition. I have seen already a lot of local authorities,\neven South Wales Police, opting for clandestine and shadowy silence and\nviolence, rather than just responding to public FOIs. I think your regime's\nattempt to keep our Llandough farm story from ever seeing the light of day\nis understandable. But I do find people from time to time, even Iraqis in\nIraq, even myself as a former British soldier, wanting to choose the right\nside of history rather than allegiance to a sinking rat ship.\n\nAny record of works carried out on the green and the roadside verge by the\nchurchyard wall in the mid-1980s is all I am asking for. I hold colour\nphotographs of trees being removed, spoil carted away and new kerbstones\nlaid; vehicle registrations in them date the works to between about 1983\nand 1990, on more than one occasion. (See attached.) Councillor Carroll's\nmonths of non-response to this specific request to find this information\nout was not going to stop me finding all this out. Asking for transparency\nand co-operation is mainly a courtesy and formality, seeing as I am a\nseasoned military cyber/electronic warfare professional. Going on 30 years\nnow in fact.\n\nMy great-grandfather planted a tree on that green to mark my family's claim\nto that land, and my family believe that tree was lost in the work of\nmaking that green, i.e. possible further destruction of evidence, possibly\nnothing. I should be clear that the green does not even appear to fall\ninside the boundary of land we have the interest in, in our ancestral town\nyou currently occupy, so this is a question about the village's history as\nmuch as ours.\n\nAny photographs, postcards or images of the farm, the barn, the green or\nthe church surroundings that the Council holds or knows of. Please\ndisclose. I have vacuumed most of Leckwith Archives already.\n\nAny guidance on where the pre-1982 community records now sit, given that\nLlandough fell within Penarth Town Council before then, and whether the\nCouncil holds anything that came across at the 1982 reorganisation, I would\nlike you to please disclose.\n\nThe names of any former members, former clerks or long-standing residents\nwho might be willing to talk to me about the village between the 1950s and\nthe 1990s. I would approach anyone you suggest courteously and would not\npress a refusal. Please disclose.\n\nI am content for this email to be tabled at a meeting and minuted if the\nCouncil wishes.\nI am also happy to give a short talk to the Council or the community,\nwithout charge, on what the records have revealed about Llandough's past —\nthe Roman villa, the early medieval cemetery beneath Church View Close, the\nmonastic history, and the farm itself.\n\nA good deal of what I have found belongs to the village as much as my\nfamily. Llandough just appears more committed to its current trajectory of\nbecoming even more of a concentration work camp, having already rejected\nmuch of this history and heritage and native people, in lieu of whatever it\nis you have underway there. I am not going to burn Llandough down to feel\nits warmth. I know demonic realms are inherently ice cold. To give an\nexample of what I speak of, I found the Llandough Facebook page to contain\nonly photos of exotic takeaway foods. Sad considering its rich history and\nheritage.\n\nI am not about leading my men to spill their lifeblood on Home Office\nMahmoods and other British blades, over any of this demographic replacement\nand ethnic cleansing. I am just trying to salvage, reconstruct a part of my\nfamily's and Welsh history and heritage while people still have heads on\ntheir shoulders here, to be able to co-operate in this matter. Even without\ncivil unrest, alleged fiduciaries have not kept proper records of this\ncase. Mine may be more complete than the British Government's and EU's at\nthis point. And even the Internet's, considering the heirlooms I have\ninherited.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nP.S.

I have also completed your online enquiry form, so the request\nis in your preferred channel.\n\nI appreciate a response would not fall due until 6 October, so this is not\na chaser. It is to put the detail in one place and to clarify the basis of\nthe request.\n\nOn your note of 22 May. You are right that Heneb, as a limited company, is\nnot a public authority under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, and I do\nnot pursue that. Two separate points remain, and I would welcome Heneb's\nposition on each.\n\nFirst, the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 apply on a different\ntest — regulation 2(2) reaches bodies carrying out functions of public\nadministration relating to the environment, or under the control of a\npublic authority. If Heneb considers it falls outside that, please say so\nexpressly with brief reasons, so that I can direct the request elsewhere.\n\nSecond, and independently, the Historic Environment Record is a statutory\nrecord: sections 194 and 195 of the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2023\nrequire the Welsh Ministers to maintain an HER for every local authority\narea and to make it available for public inspection, and Heneb keeps the\nsouth-east Wales record on their behalf. I therefore ask in the alternative\nthat this be treated as a request for access under that regime and under\nHeneb's own policy.\n\nTwo things that will make this easier. If any item is too broad, please\ntell me which and I will narrow it rather than have the whole request\nrefused. And if Heneb can supply, as a first step, simply a schedule or\nindex of the records it holds for this site — without copying them — that\nwould let me target the rest precisely and save your staff considerable\ntime. I am content to inspect material by appointment at Baglan or at the\nHER, and any reasonable copying or staff-time charge can be notified to me\nin advance for approval.\n\nTwo small administrative points. Please confirm which legal entity now\nholds the records and functions formerly of Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological\nTrust Ltd, and who within Heneb handles access requests of this kind.\n\nFinally, since my correspondence in May was framed more formally: my\npurpose is documentary. I am reconstructing the record of a farm my family\noccupied for generations, and I would far rather do that with Heneb's help\nthan around it.\n\nI should say plainly that I have read GGAT's December 1993 notification to\nthe Vale of Glamorgan that Condition 18 had not been complied with, and the\nrecommendation that a Breach of Condition Notice be issued. Whatever else\nis in dispute about this site, that was the Trust doing its job properly,\nand I am grateful for it.\n\nThank you in advance for your time in this matter,\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nEnc: Schedule of Records Requested, ref GHF/HENEB/2026-09-20"},{"id":"gm-1a0baa2acfb5f1ec","subject":"Automatic reply: Great House Farm, Llandough — two questions for HM Land Registry (ref N610CGV)","name":"Automatic reply: Great House Farm, Llandough — two questions for HM Land Registry (ref N610CGV)","date":"2026-09-19T17:06:47Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0baa2acfb5f1ec.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0baa2acfb5f1ec-automatic-reply-great-house-farm-llandough-two-questions-for-hm-land-registry-ref-n610cgv","scopeTopics":["mp"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["mp"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0baa2acfb5f1ec","direction":"received","from":"DOUGHTY, Stephen","institutions":[{"id":"mp","name":"Member of Parliament"}],"refs":["N610CGV"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0baa2acfb5f1ec.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Hello,\n\nThank you for your email.

HM Land\nRegistry has in fact already answered that, and I should have acknowledged\nit. Its letters of 23 March and 19 April 2026 identify a conveyance dated\n19 November 1982 for title WA231076, and a conveyance dated 23 May 1975 for\ntitle WA240304. I will apply to HM Land Registry directly, on form OC2, for\ncopies of those deeds and their plans. I am not asking you to obtain them\nfor me.\n\nTwo questions remain. Both concern inconsistencies within HM Land\nRegistry's own correspondence, rather than anything I am asserting. So that\nyou need not open any attachments, I have set out the relevant passages\nverbatim in the annex below, with dates and authors.\n\n1. The 1971 abstract of title. The letter of 19 April 2026 states twice\nthat an abstract of title dated 1971 was lodged with the applications. The\nletter of 30 July 2026 sets out a complete schedule of the documents held\non both first-registration files — thirty items for WA231076 and thirteen\nfor WA240304 — and no abstract of title appears anywhere on either list.\nWas the abstract lodged; does the list of documents lodged (item 17 on that\nschedule) record it; and if it was lodged, what became of it?\n\n2. The conveyance of 31 December 1969. Both operative conveyances recite\nthe same root of title: a conveyance dated 31 December 1969 between Western\nGround Rents Limited and The British Petroleum Pension Trust Limited. That\ndeed does not appear on the 30 July schedule either. Was it produced to the\nregistry at first registration; does the list of documents lodged record\nit; and if it was not produced, on what evidence was the recital accepted\nas establishing the root of title?\n\nBoth questions can be answered by examining a single document which HM Land\nRegistry confirms it holds and describes as open to public inspection. I am\nnot asking it to reopen BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2, to\ndetermine ownership, or to revisit any decision it has made. A written\nanswer to those two questions is all I am seeking.\n\nI can also withdraw one request from my earlier letter. I asked that the\nsurviving records be preserved; that is no longer necessary, as HM Land\nRegistry has confirmed the documents will remain on file.\n\nMy earlier request to meet you stands, but it is not pressing. These two\nquestions can be dealt with in writing.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler\n\nPS - see attached images. I purchased all deeds I could, but the primary\none is inaccessible for purchase as of today. I have raised this issue with\nA.I.\n\nANNEX — VERBATIM EXTRACTS FROM HM LAND REGISTRY CORRESPONDENCE\nAll under reference N610CGV. Originals available on request.\n\n\nA. Letter of 23 March 2026 — Lisa Griffiths, HM Land Registry Wales Office\n\n\"It appears Ty Mawr Farm was originally registered under two different\ntitle numbers, WA231076 and WA240304. These two titles were amalgamated.\nTitle WA240304 was closed as a result of the amalgamation and the\nregistration continued under title WA231076.\"\n\n\"We received an application for registration on 30 Nov 1982.

The land was\nconveyed to BP Properties Limited by a Conveyance dated 19 Nov 1982 made\nbetween (1) The British Petroleum Pension Trust Limited, (2) BP Trustees\nLimited and (3) BP Properties Limited\"\n\n\"We received an application for registration on 23 February 1983… The land\nwas conveyed to BP Properties Limited by a Conveyance dated 23 May 1975\nmade between (1) The British Petroleum Pension Trust Limited, (2) BP\nTrustees Limited, (3) BP Properties Limited.\"\n\n\nB. Letter of 19 April 2026 — Charlotte Takeuchi, Assistant Land Registrar\n(stage one complaint response)\n\nOn the standard applied:\n\n\"In unregistered conveyancing, title is ultimately based on the estate\nowner's right to be in possession of the land or to receive the rents and\nprofits of it.

That, however, does not answer the\nseparate question of whether the land registered in 1982/83 was correctly\nidentified and supported by the documentary title then placed before the\nRegistrar.\n\nMr Banfield's response relies heavily upon *BP Properties Ltd v Buckler*\n[1987] EWCA Civ 2. That judgment post-dated the registration by\napproximately four years. It records BP Properties Ltd as having become\nregistered proprietor of the \"whole farm\" in November 1982 and then\ndetermines the later adverse-possession dispute concerning the farmhouse\nand garden. It does not, however, determine whether the 1982\nfirst-registration application had itself correctly included the farmhouse\nparcel in BP's documentary title, or whether the registration had\nmistakenly conflated two historically separate parcels.\n\nThat distinction is fundamental.\n\nMy family's parcel — the former farmhouse, garden and curtilage, which I\nrefer to as the *House Plot* — was historically distinct from the adjoining\neastern agricultural land. The documentary history I have obtained\nindicates that these areas were not simply one undifferentiated proprietary\nparcel.\n\nThe 1916 agricultural tenancy is one important document because it embraced\nboth areas. But that is not the end of the conveyancing history. The\nearlier 1877 Daniel Thomas & Son instrument, and the arrangement\nsubsequently acted upon when the quarrying ceased in 1928, point to a\nseparate proprietary interest in the House Plot.\n\nI have the 1938 conveyance from the Marquis of Bute to Western Ground\nRents, and the revised 1939 version of the 1916 tenancy, and it did not\nconvey or demise the House Plot at all: the actual 1938 conveyance, the\n1939 tenancy and their plans need to be examined by you lot too, not just\nme. Indeed, the 1987 judgment itself records that the alleged yearly\ntenancy commencing in 1949 has not been produced in the proceedings. Its\ngeographical extent therefore remains unproved. Not withstanding it may\npertain to the parcel to the east we leased and defaulted on, not our\nfreehold parcel. Furthermore my nan expressly rejected the 1949 tenancy and\nattempt to make her occupancy of our parcel permissive in such a way, but\nexpressly rejecting it while asserting her ownership claim of her parcel.\n\nIt's adolescent of everyone to keep having a meltdown and failing to\ncompute the simplicity of the fact Mary Williams asserted she owned her\nparcel. And WGR saught possession of theirs, east of it. Western Ground\nRents, already described in UK Parliament as praying on elderly and being\nabhorrent and scrupilous, clearly tried to make Mary's occupany appear\npermissive in 1949 and the 1955  proceedings.\n\nThe 1987 judgment records that and the 1962 proceeding, after the\nagricultural tenancy was terminated, as Western Ground Rents obtaining a\n1955 possession order for the \"whole of the farm\". Crucially, however, when\nthat order was enforced on 4 July 1955, possession was taken of all\nparts *except\nthe farmhouse and garden*. The judgment gives the immediate reason as Mrs\nMary Buckler's condition and her strong resistance to leaving the\nfarmhouse. Ambiguity which is later misinterprited and clearly an early\nattempt at making her occupancy of her parcel appear permissive.\n\nWGR subsequently brought a *fresh action in 1962 specifically against Mr\nand Mrs  Buckler for possession of the farmhouse and garden and mesne\nprofits*, resulting in the possession and mesne-profits order of 11\nDecember 1962. The judgment records that this order was not enforced before\n1974.\n\nThat sequence matters.\n\nIf the two areas had genuinely always constituted one undifferentiated\nproprietary estate subject to the same right of possession, it is difficult\nto understand why possession of the agricultural land was recovered in 1955\nwhile the farmhouse and garden were left occupied and a separate possession\naction had to be brought in 1962.\n\nI therefore ask that this fact not be retrospectively converted into an\nassumption that the 1955 \"whole farm\" wording necessarily comprised the\nHouse Plot in the same legal sense as the agricultural land.\n\nThe statutory effect attributed by the Court of Appeal to the 1955/1962\nproceedings cannot itself establish title to a different, historically\nseparate parcel which was never actually comprised in those proceedings.\n\nThe possession orders were orders for possession and associated relief.\nThey were not conveyances. They did not retrospectively create a\ndocumentary chain of title where none existed, nor did they by themselves\ndetermine the geographical extent of an underlying freehold documentary\ntitle.\n\nThat is especially important in light of the sequence of events recorded in\nthe 1987 judgment. WGR's own successive proceedings and selective\nenforcement distinguished the agricultural land from the farmhouse and\ngarden in practical terms, whatever the later interpretation of the\nexpression \"whole farm\".\n\nThere is a further point which I believe HM Land Registry has not addressed.\n\nIn 1949, according to the history now being assembled, Mrs Mary Williams\nwas offered a tenancy of the farmhouse and garden which she rejected\nbecause she asserted ownership. The 1987 judgment itself confirms that she\nwas offered a tenancy of the farmhouse and garden by Western Ground Rents\nand refused it. It also records that she had come to believe she had a\ntitle through her grandfather and that documents existed which supported\nthat claim.\n\nThus there was plainly a known dispute over the House Plot long before\nfirst registration.\n\nThe 1974 proceedings and letters must also be put in their proper place.\nThe Court of Appeal held that the 1974 letters operated as a licence,\nnotwithstanding that Mrs Buckler had never expressly accepted them, and\nheld that her possession thereafter was no longer adverse.\n\nI am not asking HM Land Registry to disregard that decision.\n\nDespite it being clear to any sane, reasonable person to see that, given\nthe evidence, the 1974 order was not truly quashed due to the licence\nletters, which came afterwards and were backdated. Made out to a non\nexistent Mrs Buckler. And quashed the case within minutes of Mary being\nnotified of them, with no ample opportunity to respond. Albeit she actually\ndid in writing. And asserted her ownership and challenged BP in a public\nnewspaper. Not withstanding BP couldn't give something they don't own i.e.\npermissive occupancy.\n\nThis permissive occupancy followed by a conversion is a racket. Look at the\npattern;\n\n1955 permissive occupancy ploy > 1969 conveyance (WGR to BP Pension Trust\nLtd)\n\n1974 permissive occupancy ploy > 1975 conveyance (BP Pension Trust to BP\nProperties Ltd)\n\nNor am I asking the Land Registry to even acknowledge the fact court\nclerked notified the press who all decended on the scene, covered the story\n(that Mary asserted ownership, family occupancy since 1667, lawyer confirms\nher ownership claim was valid etc).\n\nI am asking a different question: *what land did BP actually have title to\nin 1974, and what land was actually capable of being registered in BP's\nname in 1982?*\n\nIf the House Plot had never formed part of WGR's documentary estate (not in\nthe 1938 conveyance from Bute, as it went to Daniel Thomas & Son in 1876\nthen to my great grandad John Williams in 1928), then the 1974 letters and\nthe 1962 possession order cannot simply be assumed to cure that problem.\nThe 1987 judgment did not adjudicate that separate issue of\nfirst-registration procedure and documentary extent.\n\nBP never had ownership. Ours ownership claim was never legally\nexstiguished. BP never even saught ownership, only possession. And with no\ntitle chain, only their own issuance of permissive occupancy, based on\ninterest they'd purchased in a possession order, which itself was also\nbased on issuance of permissive occupancy. And with little to no meeting of\nthe minds, but instead stealth/ secrecy. And the registration itself in\n1983 was secret and undisclosed to Mary Williams and us living heirs and\nsuccessors.\nThe Land Registry issue\n\nThe applicable statutory framework in 1982/83 was the Land Registration Act\n1925 and the Land Registration Rules 1925.\n\nThe Rules expressly contained provisions dealing with first registration,\nincluding *rule 20, requiring the applicant to deliver the original deeds\nand documents relating to the title which were in its possession or control*.\nThe operation of that rule in the first-registration context is confirmed\nin *Walker v Burton*, where the High Court described the requirement in\nthose terms.\n\nThe Rules also contained a specific provision headed *\"Examination of title\nby Registrar\"* and provisions concerning searches and enquiries by the\nRegistrar.\n\nThis means that the question cannot simply be reduced to \"Land Registry\nregisters what it is given\".\n\nThe relevant question is whether, in this case:\n\n   1.\n\n   the applicant supplied the material title documents in its possession or\n   control;\n   2.\n\n   the documents supplied actually demonstrated that the House Plot formed\n   part of the estate being registered;\n   3.\n\n   the Registrar examined the documentary chain sufficiently to identify\n   any inconsistency between the deeds and the land claimed for registration;\n   4.\n\n   any discrepancy between the deeds, plans, possession orders and the\n   proposed registration plan generated a requisition or further enquiry;\n   5.\n\n   the registration was completed as an absolute title despite a material\n   uncertainty as to the extent of the documentary title; and\n   6.\n\n   the Registrar's own records contain any warning, requisition, note,\n   correspondence or other indication that the separate House Plot issue was\n   considered.\n\nThere is a particularly important point concerning *registration in error*.\n\nThe Law Commission's review of the 1925 system records that the Land\nRegistration Rules 1925 contained a specific power in *rule 14* dealing\nwith \"registration in error\", including registration of too large a part of\na title, and explained that the registrar had an express power to rectify\nregistration arising from mistake.\n\nThat is significant because HM Land Registry is currently saying, in\neffect, that there was no mistake. That conclusion should not be treated as\nestablished unless HM Land Registry has actually examined the surviving\n1982/83 registration file and established what documentary evidence\njustified the extent registered.\n\nHM Land Registry's present published guidance also expressly recognises\nthat *including too much land in a registered title can constitute a\nmistake in the register*, and gives as an example a title being mapped to\ninclude land for which the registered proprietor has no documentary title.\nIt also recognises that failure by a solicitor to lodge documents in their\npossession can amount to lack of proper care. I appreciate that this is\nmodern guidance and I do not suggest that it can simply be imposed\nretrospectively as the law of 1983. It is nevertheless directly relevant to\nthe distinction HM Land Registry now draws between a genuine registration\nmistake and a mere disagreement about the title boundary.\n\nLikewise, HM Land Registry's current guidance states that a title plan\ncannot describe the land more accurately than the pre-registration deeds\nallow, and that the pre-registration deeds are crucial to resolving\nquestions about the extent of a registered title. Again, I cite this as an\nexpression of the documentary basis of registration, not as a claim that a\n2025/26 practice guide was itself the governing rule in 1983.\nThe present register raises further questions\nIn addition to reperations for the demolition of our 800 year old home with\nus practically still inside at the time, inhumane abuse of my pregnant mum,\nterminally ill father and amputee grandmother, not withstanding 3 toddlers:\nmyself included. I seek restoration of property in that I seek possession\nof the undeveloped woodland half of our land parcel. Which is virgin land,\nhaving not been touched since we were forced from it in 1988.\n\nThe current title material itself refers separately to:\n\n   - the *23 May 1975 conveyance of land tinted blue*, with the copy plan\n   filed under *WA240304*;\n   - the *19 November 1982 conveyance of land tinted pink*, with the\n   original filed under *WA231076*;\n   - rights and retained land associated with those separate conveyances;\n   and\n   - the vendors' adjoining or retained land.\n\nThose entries require the original plans to be compared with the House Plot.\n\nI am particularly concerned that two separate conveyancing areas were\nsubsequently presented as part of a single \"whole farm\" registered estate.\nIf the House Plot was not actually comprised in the conveyances relied\nupon, the relevant question is not whether the modern red edging can be\nmade to fit an Ordnance Survey map. The question is *what deed, order or\nother legally sufficient evidence put that specific land into BP's\nregistrable estate in the first place*.\n\nAn Ordnance Survey description cannot by itself create a conveyance. Much\nlike BPs 1971 alteration of the descriptor of our parcel, shifting \"ty\nmawr\" from theirs to ours and appending \"farm\" to the end of it.\n\nNor can a later registration description retrospectively supply a missing\nlink in the pre-registration conveyancing chain.\n\nI'll repeat this as its important;\n\nNor can a later registration description retrospectively supply a missing\nlink in the pre-registration conveyancing chain.\nThe 1982/83 registration file\n\nHM Land Registry's letter of *30 July 2026, reference N610CGV*, has already\nconfirmed that surviving first-registration material relating to the\nrelevant titles exists and is open to inspection.\n\nI therefore ask you to write again to HM Land Registry, not asking it to\ndecide the family title, but asking it to answer the following precise\nadministrative questions:\n\n*1.* What exact first-registration applications were made for *WA231076*\nand *WA240304*, and what deeds, abstracts, declarations, plans, court\norders and other documents accompanied each application?\n\n*2.* Did the application files contain the *1938 Bute–Western Ground Rents\nconveyance*, the *1939 revised tenancy and plan*, *1877 Daniel Thomas & Son\ninstrument*, or any other document showing that the House Plot was\nhistorically separate? What was included and not included.\n\n*3.* What document was relied upon to establish that the House Plot formed\npart of BP Properties Limited's documentary estate? How was Land Registry\nnot able to see only a plaintiff on the court paperwork preceeding 1982,\nand no defendant?\n\n*4.* What was the precise geographical extent attributed to the 1955\npossession order and the 1962 possession order by the Registrar, and were\nthe original orders or plans ever examined?\n\n*5.* Were the Registrar's records aware of the 1974 proceedings and Mrs\nWilliams  asserted ownership claim when the first-registration applications\nwere processed?\n\nThe only way they could have not been is if they willfully ignorantly and\nselective vision didn't see there was another party to the court\nproceedings, not just a claimant but also a defendant. They/ BP will have\nhad to have fished out a 1935 marriage certificate to find anything to\nmatch the name Mrs Buckler, on the licence letters. A deperate measure to\navoid any of this clandestine registration reaching the families knowledge,\nwhich we would have been very quick to correct all this. Not withstanding\nmy nan will have had to have died to not challenge this, having\nrelentlessly and unwaveringly challenged this for decades already. And low\nand behold she did conveniently die in the two weeks she will have had to\nchallenge this in 1983. I guess someone murdered her, just to be absolutely\nsure all this went ahead without any issues.\n\n*6.* Did the Registrar raise any requisition because the possession\nhistory, the separate 1955/1962 proceedings, the 1975 blue conveyance, the\n1982 pink conveyance and the proposed registered extent did not correspond\nstraightforwardly?\n\n*7.* On what evidence was the House Plot incorporated into the land\nregistered to BP, rather than being left outside the registration pending\nproof of title?\n\n*8.* Was the title registered with an absolute title, qualified title,\npossessory title or another class, and what was the evidential basis for\nthe class of title granted?\n\n*9.* Does HM Land Registry's surviving file contain any memorandum,\nexaminer's note, requisition, map correspondence or other record explaining\nhow the apparently separate areas were reconciled into the registered\nextent?\nWhat I am asking you to investigate\n\nI am not asking you, or HM Land Registry, to determine that my family is\npresently entitled to reporations of land now occupied by others. Or\npossession of the unoccupied woodlands north of church view close.\n\nI am asking that the Department distinguish between two entirely different\npropositions:\n\n*First:* the Court of Appeal decided the legal effect of the 1962\npossession order and the 1974 letters in the particular litigation that\ncame before it.\n\n*Second:* HM Land Registry registered land in BP's name in 1982/83. That\nadministrative act necessarily depended upon a first-registration\napplication, documentary evidence and a determination of the land capable\nof registration.\n\nThe second proposition cannot simply be proved by citing the first.\n\nIf HM Land Registry now asserts that there was no mistake in registration,\nit should be able to identify the documentary chain and the registration\nevidence which led it to that conclusion.\n\nIs land registry claiming my great grandad John Williams DID NOT gain and\nregister title, in 1928, when the 1876/77 Marquess of Bute to Daniel Thomas\nand Son agreement enacted, thus title chain/ freehold transferred from DT&S\nto us? Is their understanding it conveyed from Bute/ DT&S to Western Ground\nRents in 1938? Or even Williams Title ended up being conveyed to Western\nGround Rents prior to 1955. And then to BP in 1969?  Because both my nans\nstatement alleges her paper title was stolen in the 40's. And some family\nmembers rumour her own husband Fredrick, pawned it, possible to settle Mary\nWilliams fathers debts. That might explain Fredricks interest in the 1949\ntenancy offer from WGR, if it indeed compromised the House Plot.\n\nIf the surviving file shows that the House Plot was supported by a valid\nconveyance or other legally sufficient title, that would answer these\nquestions.\n\nIf, however, the file shows that the House Plot was included because an\nambiguous \"whole farm\" permissive occupancy/  possession history was\ntreated as equivalent to documentary title, or because two separate parcels\nwere inadvertently conflated, that would be a materially different\nsituation. It would raise an obvious question as to whether the\nregistration process contained an error, an omission, inadequate\nexamination, or reliance upon an incomplete or inaccurate presentation of\nthe title.\n\nI am deliberately not asserting fraud or negligence as an established fact\nat this stage. I'm just determined to make sense of what happened so that I\ncan make the case and get this matter and evidence adjudicated.\n\nEvidence must establish what happened. But the possibility of *administrative\nerror, inadequate examination, lack of proper care, or mistaken inclusion\nof land* cannot sensibly be dismissed until the original registration\nmaterial has been examined.\n\nThat is precisely why I am asking for the surviving file to be reviewed.\n\nI remain willing to provide the title extracts, the 30 July 2026 HM Land\nRegistry letter, the relevant historical documents and my chronology. I\nwould also be grateful for your assistance in obtaining a substantive\nanswer from HM Land Registry rather than a further general statement that\nit cannot reopen *BP Properties Ltd v Buckler*.\n\nI just bought some records from them ref the forest half of our land\nparcel. To begin seeking possession of that. But I don't want to be\nextorted by Land Registry and have yet another local authority gatekeep\ninformation in some ploy to mitigate their legal liability exposure if it\nshows any negligence or incompetence un 1982/83. I was born on this land,\nit seems to be my land. I could just as easily do GDPR and SAR and not just\nFOI's.\n\nI also resent Land Registry’s initial response to my intial enquiry was to\nconvert my enquriy into a complaint, only to shut it down. And say I could\nnever ask the same question again. This is the kind of behaviour that\nsignals guilty conscience and bad faith. It was very hostile. Much like\ntaking the maximum time to respond, is that really neccesary?\n\nI have allocated at least 6 years to gathering evidence and making my case\non this. It only looks damming for local authories when I visualise all\nthis back and forth for months just to get to the information I should have\nbeen presented with in the first instance. I've barely if at all paid for\nevidence or had my lawyer demand/ summon evidence be disclosed yet. I'm\njust finding out who will co-operate at this stage. I'm also perfectly\nwilling, like with CADW and Llandough councillor, to file complaints so\nthat each party has ample opportunity and due procedure to try to satisfy\nour grievances directly. Dwr Cymru already posted me a cheque for ignoring\nmy initial FOI. Albeit minor.\n\nI have travelled the world. My wife and daughter and dog from Swansea live\nin the Caribbean. I'm mainly in Argentina as of 2025 constructing a replica\nGreat House Farm Museum. What happens in this small county and country\ndoesn't concern me much anymore. I think its mostly a lot of massachrist\nsubmissive hostages in concentration work camps under plastic terrorists\nnow. And its a situationship that suits both parties and I don't intend on\ngetting in the way of either.\n\nI am more concerned to get the story of what happened in Llandough correct,\nso it can be accurately retold at the museum in Argentina. And gather\nevidence before any more goes missing or is destroyed. If it transpires the\ncase can be reopened and reporations are due and/or possession of some/ any\nof our ancestral birthland can be returned to us, then all the better.\n\nI'm also sure this what happened to us was an epademic racket/ playbook\nnationwide and if so, we're likely in a land market bubble and so a land\nmarket crash may come. Which would be literal, actionable and logistical\ndecolonisation, like the way occupying UN issued land in Nicosia back to\nGreeks/ Turks. Not just political and figurative decolonisation. Not\nwithstanding civil war brewing on British Isles, which is why having family\nestate records in order matters. I've already lost any confidence self\nproclaimed fudiciaries actually preserve records.\n\nI've got herlooms going back centuries. Which myself and my family have\nsomehow managed to preserve. How CADW and National Archieves and the Vale\nCouncil and even EU and Parliment don't have  records of this case anymore,\nbrings into question the point of their very existence.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\n*Sion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)*\n*Royal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member*\n\nOn Fri, 18 Sept 2026, 10:13 DOUGHTY, Stephen, <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Good morning Mr Buckler\n>\n>\n>\n> Following enquiries on your behalf, please see the attached response from\n> Chief Executive and Chief Land Registrar at HM Land Registry.\n>\n> We are sorry to provide what we understand may be a disappointing reply\n> but trust that the information is accurate and goes someway to clarify\n> their position.\n>\n> We are still waiting for a full response from the Ministry of Justice but\n> will of course let you know as soon as we hear back.\n>\n>\n>\n> Kind regards,\n>\n>\n>\n> *Office of Stephen Doughty MP / AS*\n> *Labour and Co-operative Member of Parliament for Cardiff South and\n> Penarth*\n>\n> *Llafur a Cydweithredol Aelod Seneddol dros Dde Caerdydd a Phenarth*\n>\n> *Westminster / San Steffan *| [phone redacted] | House of Commons, London,\n> [postcode redacted]\n>\n> *Email / E-bost                      *| [email redacted]\n>\n> *Website / Gwefan      *          | www.stephendoughty.wales\n>\n>\n>\n> For information about how we use your personal data, see our Privacy\n> Notice <https://www.stephendoughty.wales/privacynotice>.\n>\n>\n>\n>\n>\n> UK Parliament Disclaimer: this e-mail is confidential to the intended\n> recipient.

And you can fool some of\nthe people some of the time, but not all of the people all of the time.\n\nThe land registry even explicitly wrote to me, not just the MP today, to me\nthey stated they have never claimed we do not own our land parcel. Nor that\nevidence existed we don't own it. Nor has any court ever ruled we don't.\nPossession fell to BP due to their presentation to the court and lawfare.\nOur family fell for their theatrics as much as local authories. It doesn't\nchange the fact the title chain of the possessors is defective and is based\non a falsehood that our occupancy of our parcel was permissive. When in\nfact our undefeated title chain of our land parcel from 1928, is proceeded\nby Daniel Thomas & Son, before that Marquess of Bute, before that Vaughan\nfamily and the origin is a 1000 year freehold from Knight Sir Herbert of\nSwansea to Vaughan in the 1500's.\n\nBPs interest in our parcel was a 1969 purchase of interest in an unenforced\n(possible undeclaired) possession order, by Western Ground Rents, based on\na 1955 order that, like in 1974, attempted to make our occupancy of our\nland parcel permissive. It said the order was for the \"whole farm\" and only\nexcluded our parcel because of my nans \"condition and resistence\". Having\njust had her leg amputated.\n\nFirstly the whole farm was defined as the parcel they'd possessed to the\neast of ours, as per the 1939 agreement (see attached). It no longer\nincluded our parcel from the 1916 agricultral tenancy, because in 1928 our\n1877 agreement with Daniel Thomas enacted when the last quarrying machine\nwas removed. Our grandad even registered the land in our names in and\naround 1928 too. The 1939 revisal of the 1916 agricultural tenancy\nexplicitly didn't include our land parcel. So the whole farm was not the\nsame definition as the 1916 agricutural tenancy which was conveyed to\nWestern Ground Rents in 1938. Secondly my nan wasn't just resisting moving\ndue to having her leg amputated. She was asserting ownership. She also\nrefused a previous attempt to make her occupancy permissive in 1949, by\nrejecting a WGR attempt to get her into a tenancy. Which she explicitly\nrejected due to asserting ownership.\n\nSo you see my disabled, widow, pensioner grandmother, even until her\nconveniently timed death in 1983 , in the two week window she will have had\nto challenge BP registering our land in their names at the land registry\n(which she was never even made aware of, nor did BP disclose to land\nregistry her ownership claim), even unto her dying breath she challenged\npermissive occupancy and asserted ownership.\n\nThe land registry wrote back to the MP actually and is still trying to worm\ntheir way out of this. Them not admitting a mistake is even an audacity as\nit was clearly more than a mistake at the land registry in my estimation.\nThey will have had to look at the 1974 court proceedings to see BP seeking\npossession, yet ownership wasn't determined in case 1 of 1974, it was\najourned. And the quashing of the posssession order in case 2 in 1974 is\nalso dubious, as the case was quashed the same day my nan was notified of\nBPs offer. So she wasn't actually given ample time to respond. Furthermore\nthe license letters were to a mrs buckler, my nan was a Mrs Williams. The\nland registry admitted to me in writing they will have used my nans 1935\nmarriage certificate to officiate BPs 1974 license letters to a Mrs\nBuckler. Furthemore the land registry cite the 1983 decision they made was\nfine as the 1987 court paperwork says so. Not that they could have known\nits outcome in 1983. And the 1987 case is based on the 1983 land registry.\nAnd they both depended on BPs attempt to make our occupancy of our 800 year\nhome, and family home since 1667 - permissive, when we owned it since 1928.\nFurthmore, having never paid anything on our land since 1928, we will have\nqualified for adverse possession by 1940 in any case. The interruption of\nour adverse possession which is alleged to have begun in 1955, and was\ninterrupted in 1962 and 1974, will have only been for the land parcel to\nthe east of ours. Not the land parcel we were on.\n\nThis is the problem with theatre, fraud, concentalment, government\ninvolvement (force), corporate manslaughter, suppression, lawfare etc. It\nis all short term gains. But without legitimacy, local authorities lack\nactual authority. The authority must derive from legitimacy. What I am\nalluding to may be rough edged and not meticulous, but its not before a\ncourt yet. Also what I alledge isn't entirely contrary to the official\nnarrative. Both can be true simultaneously is the wild part of all this.\n\nThe concern I raise, is more for local authories sakes, because a lot of\nactions were taken by the council, CADW, Police, which were based on fraud\nand BPs defective title. My mum was physically thrown over our garden gate\nto get her off the property, while pregnant,  dislocating her collar bone\nin that process too. All she was doing was trying to get medicine from our\noccupied/ stolen home (since the 16th century), for my terminally ill dad\nwho was in hospital. The press all labelled us \"squatters being evicted\".\n\nI am horrified at the local authories here who insist on my family of\nmostly women being a hostage prisoner of war class under terrorists.\nThey're all afraid to even speak out or challenge the narrative as anyone\nin our family who has conveniently died. Myself, as a decorated war veteran\nwarfare peofessional with tens of soldiers I've served with, do not\nnegotatiate with terrorists as it is. We don't stand for this terroist/\nhostage situationship. Much like us indigenous Briton welsh nationals on\nour ancestral birthland, accept our towns and cities being turned into\nethnic cleansing concentration work camps.\n\nMarconi's stay with us is covered up. Even unto this day. Along with the\nRoman Villa, Monestry, Peerless Jims first fight in our barns. Even the\n2,200 year old round house isn't mentioned. Why? Llandough has been turned\ninto a concentration work camp. The town website history page doesn't even\nmention the half of this. Also all the campaigning to petition the housing\ndevelopment (on our land) in 1974 and affirm our home was a county\ntreasure, was suppressed. When BP demolished our home in 1988 and went back\nto the Vale council for planning approval. The council never held BP to\naccount for just demolishing our country treasure home. And even suppressed\nor down played any record it was ever a county treasure property. Or site\nof historic and archelogical signifcants.\n\nI am not just writing about my disappointment in the councillor. I know\nhe's likely already been scolded by the aforementioned terrorists that\noutrank him, in the aftermath of rejecting being replaced and ethnically\ncleansed which resulted in him being ejected from a council meeting for\nchallenging Cardiff being a city of Sanctuary.  My motto is different in\nthat I say \"Bring Guns\" and am fully aware everything comes down to guns\nand fire fights. So I will always need an actual gun to be fired at me or\nheld to my head to make me even consider standing down. And even then the\nlast 3 times firearms have been drawn on me I ended up disarming the\naggressor. So I'm perhaps a different breed to the councillor or civilians\nalike.\n\nBut I am bona fide. I left my military career with full honours.\n\nIn any case, separately from the Councillor Carroll complaint which you\nclosed today. This complaint concerns two connected matters: the custody\nand handling of Llandough Community Council records concerning Great House\nFarm / Tŷ Mawr, Llandough, and the completeness and treatment of Vale of\nGlamorgan Council's planning and heritage records relating to application\n89/01396/OUT and the subsequent reserved-matters application.\n\nI appreciate that you do not employ the former Clerk, Mr Paul R. Egan. I am\nnevertheless raising the matter with you as Monitoring Officer because the\nunderlying planning file is a Vale file, the Community Council's records\nform part of the local documentary record, and I need a clear written\naccount of who now has responsibility for those records and what has\nhappened to them.\n\nEveryone's also got a boss. Mine being God and my 56 British Soldier\nshareholders in my US based company private security group. So feel free to\npass this up your ranks to your overlords if you can't or won't make sense\nof it or take any action.\n\nI also want to be precise about what I am, and am not, alleging. I do not\nhave evidence that Mr Egan removed, altered or destroyed any document. Nor\ncan I establish from the present evidence why he retired when he did. The\nfact that a long-serving Clerk retired during the period in which I was\nseeking these records is, however, a material chronology, particularly\nbecause he had initially adopted a position of not engaging beyond a\nstatutory search. I therefore ask the Council to establish the facts rather\nthan assume either that the matter is innocuous or that any wrongdoing\noccurred.\n\n   1. Llandough Community Council records\n\nIn May and June 2026 I asked Mr Egan for Community Council records\nconcerning Great House Farm, including material concerning the events\nsurrounding my late father's involvement with the property in 1988.\n\nOn 14 June 2026 Mr Egan stated that minute books from 1982 onwards had been\ndeposited with Glamorgan Archives in 2002 and relied on section 21 FOIA. He\nsubsequently retired. On the day of his retirement he directed me towards\nLeckwith records and the 1939 Western Ground Rents tenancy with my\ngreat-grandfather.\n\nThat tenancy is significant because, on the documents I have examined, it\nappears to concern the eastern field rather than the House Plot containing\nthe farmhouse and associated buildings. I therefore do not regard that\nreference as resolving the documentary position concerning Great House Farm\nitself.\n\nI need the Council to establish:\n\n   - who is now Clerk and Proper Officer of Llandough Community Council;\n   - who currently has custody of its historic minute books, correspondence\n   and other records;\n   - what records were handed over or inventoried when Mr Egan retired;\n   - whether any search has been made specifically for Great House Farm /\n   Tŷ Mawr records, rather than relying solely on the general statement that\n   minute books were deposited in 2002; and\n   - whether any Community Council correspondence, consultation response or\n   minute relating to 89/01396/OUT or the later reserved matters survives.\n\nIf any part of this falls solely within the responsibility of Llandough\nCommunity Council or the Public Services Ombudsman for Wales, please\nidentify the appropriate authority and the person to whom I should address\nthat part of the complaint.\n\n   2. What the existing evidence establishes\n\nThis section turns from Community Council custody to the Vale's own\nplanning and archaeological file for 89/01396/OUT. The points below are\nbased on documents already in my possession and published archaeological\nmaterial, and are separate from the matters in Section 1, where I am asking\nthe Council to search its records.\n\n   1.\n\n   Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr is recorded in the historic environment\n   record as County Treasure, reference SMR/HER 2038s / GGAT02038s, at\n   approximately ST 1681 7331. The 1990 GGAT assessment records that, because\n   of an ownership dispute and the subsequent sudden destruction of the\n   property in 1988, the building was incompletely understood.\n   2.\n\n   Outline planning application 89/01396/OUT, submitted by BP Properties\n   Ltd, followed the 1988 demolition by approximately a year. The application\n   answers the relevant questions as follows: buildings to be demolished —\n   \"None\"; site — \"Disused\"; previous use — \"Not known\".\n   3.\n\n   The Vale officer material in my possession refers to an outline-stage\n   indicative scheme of 18 dwellings. The subsequent reserved-matters scheme\n   approved on 3 September 1992 is for 20 dwellings.\n   4.\n\n   The 1990 evaluation recorded archaeological potential to the north of\n   the churchyard and identified a medium-to-high potential area. What it does\n   not establish by itself is the full extent of the archaeological remains\n   subsequently encountered.\n   5.\n\n   Cotswold Archaeology excavated at the same general location in 1994,\n   immediately adjacent to St Dochdwy's Church. The published archaeological\n   account records 1,026 burials from an excavated area of 0.22 hectares. I am\n   relying on the excavators' published figure rather than the lower secondary\n   figure of 858, which appears to conflate different phases of investigation.\n   6.\n\n   PPG16 was issued in November 1990 and therefore post-dates the March\n   1990 outline decision, but was applicable by the time of the September 1992\n   reserved-matters decision. I am not presently asserting what archaeological\n   conditions were imposed in 1992. The drawings I hold are stamped as\n   approved on 3 September 1992, subject to compliance with conditions if any,\n   but I do not hold the decision notice setting out the actual conditions.\n   That decision notice is therefore a critical missing document.\n   7.\n\n   I am also not treating the handwritten numbering on the surviving\n   consultation material as conclusively establishing which sheet relates to\n   which responding body. The underlying consultation responses remain\n   relevant and should be located irrespective of that numbering issue.\n   8.\n\n   The documentary gap that now needs explaining\n\nThe sequence is straightforward.\n\nThe historic farmhouse and associated buildings were demolished in December\n1988.\n\nThe subsequent 1989 outline application described the site as \"Disused\",\nstated that there were \"None\" buildings to be demolished, and gave the\nprevious use as \"Not known\".\n\nThe 1990 archaeological evaluation had already identified significant\narchaeological potential near the churchyard.\n\nThe 1992 reserved-matters approval provided for 20 dwellings.\n\nThe 1994 excavation subsequently recorded 1,026 burials from 0.22 hectares\nimmediately adjacent to the church.\n\nWhat I cannot establish from the records presently available to me is how\nthe archaeological excavation area relates spatially to the approved\nhousing layout and retained areas. In particular, I need the 1994\nexcavation plan and the corresponding Ideal Homes layout so that the two\ncan be compared accurately.\n\nI also need to understand how the 1989 application descriptions came to be\naccepted against the documentary and historic-environment information\nalready available concerning the demolished farmhouse.\n\nI am not asking the Council to adopt my interpretation of these matters. I\nam asking it to establish what was known, what was checked, what was\nrecorded, and what records still exist.\n\n   4. Specific information and records requested\n\nPlease provide a substantive written response to each of the following:\n\n   1.\n\n   Who is currently Clerk and Proper Officer of Llandough Community\n   Council, and who has custody of its historic records?\n   2.\n\n   Was Llandough Community Council consulted on application 89/01396/OUT\n   and/or the subsequent reserved-matters application? If so, please provide\n   the consultation requests, replies, minutes and associated correspondence,\n   or confirm specifically that no such material is held.\n   3.\n\n   Please provide the full planning decision notice dated 3 September 1992,\n   including all conditions, rather than the approved drawings alone.\n   4.\n\n   Please confirm whether Vale holds the 1994 Cotswold Archaeology\n   site/excavation plans and the relevant Ideal Homes development layout\n   plans. Please also confirm whether the Council has ever undertaken or\n   commissioned a plan-to-plan comparison showing the excavation area against\n   the approved development footprint.\n   5.\n\n   Please identify the officer or officers responsible for assessing the\n   1989 application against the information then available concerning the 1988\n   demolition and HER/SMR record 2038s, including the entries \"None\",\n   \"Disused\" and \"Not known\".\n   6.\n\n   Please confirm what planning, enforcement, conservation/heritage,\n   archaeological, consultation, photographic and correspondence records\n   remain for the site and where they are presently held.\n   7.\n\n   Given the issues raised by my FOI/EIR correspondence and the corporate\n   complaint of 17 September 2026, please ensure that surviving records\n   concerning Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr, including Community Council records\n   where they remain identifiable, are preserved pending resolution of these\n   matters. I am particularly concerned that records should not disappear\n   simply because responsibility has passed from one office-holder to another.\n   8.\n\n   Please confirm whether there was a formal handover, inventory or records\n   transfer when Mr Egan retired, and whether any such documentation records\n   the location of material concerning Great House Farm, planning\n   consultations, or the 1988 demolition.\n   9.\n\n   Finally, if the Council considers that any aspect concerning Mr Egan's\n   conduct as Community Council Clerk falls outside the Vale's jurisdiction,\n   please identify the proper route and responsible body rather than simply\n   closing that part of the complaint.\n\nI am deliberately separating evidence from inference. I am not alleging\nthat Mr Egan's retirement was caused by my FOI requests, nor am I alleging\nthat any individual deliberately concealed records. The timing, however, is\nsufficiently relevant that the Council should establish what happened to\nthe records at the point responsibility changed. The immediate issue is\ncapable of being answered objectively: what records exist, what was known\nto the authority, what checks were carried out, what decisions were made,\nand where the missing documents are now.\n\nPlease treat this as a formal request for a written governance/records\nresponse and address each numbered question individually. It should be read\nalongside FOI/EIR reference 00210772 and my correspondence of 17–18\nSeptember 2026.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n------------------------------\n\nChanges made: added the Re: line, opened Section 2 with a sentence flagging\nthe shift from Community Council custody to the Vale's own file, and merged\nthe two closing paragraphs to drop the repeated point. Everything else —\nincluding all the evidence/inference hedging — is untouched. Want it as a\nWord doc or PDF instead, or any further tweaks?\n\n\n\nOn Fri, 18 Sept 2026, 15:01 Davidson, Victoria, <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler\n>\n> Thank you for your recent correspondence which I am responding to on\n> behalf of the Leader, concerning Great House Farm/Church View Close, the\n> removal of a commemorative tree and your communications with Councillor\n> Carroll.\n>\n> I have considered the matters you have raised.\n>\n> As you are aware, I have previously responded to your concerns regarding\n> Councillor Carroll's lack of response to your correspondence.

Having reviewed those concerns, I concluded that the matter did not fall within the Council's Corporate Complaints Policy and I did not identify any basis for further action under the Members' Code of Conduct process. The Council has no mechanism by which it can compel an elected member to respond to correspondence from a constituent and, accordingly, the Council's consideration of that aspect of the matter is concluded.\nPlease note that the Leader is not responsible for the conduct of Members other than those with her own political group\nI note that your recent correspondence extends beyond the issue of Councillor Carroll's responsiveness and raises a broader range of concerns relating to historical land ownership, planning and heritage matters associated with Great House Farm/Church View Close, together with a request for information regarding the removal of a commemorative tree.\nIn relation to the tree, I am making enquiries to establish whether the Council holds any records which may assist in answering your question regarding its removal. This is being dealt with by the Information Governance Team, I have copied in the FOI unit email domain. If relevant information is held by the Council, I will advise you accordingly. Equally, if no such records are held, I will confirm that position.\nIn respect of the wider matters raised in your correspondence, it is important that I clarify the scope of the Council's role. The Council is not able to determine disputed ownership of land, revisit historical legal proceedings, adjudicate upon competing title claims, or investigate allegations of fraud or other criminal conduct. Those matters fall within the jurisdiction of the courts, HM Land Registry, the police and other external bodies as appropriate.\nWhilst I appreciate the strength of feeling reflected in your correspondence and recognise the significance that these matters have for you and your family, the Council must limit its involvement to those issues which fall within its statutory functions and responsibilities. Any response provided by the Council will therefore be confined to matters upon which it may properly comment and any information which it may hold.\nThe FOI team will write to you further once enquiries regarding the tree have been completed.\nYours sincerely,\n\n\nVictoria Davidson\nMonitoring Officer/Head of Legal and Democratic Services / Swyddog Monitro / Pennaeth Gwasanaethau Cyfreithiol a Democrataidd\nDirector's Office - Resources / Swyddfa’r Cyfarwyddwr - Adnoddau\nVale of Glamorgan Council / Cyngor Bro Morgannwg\ntel / ffôn: [phone redacted]\nmob / sym: [phone redacted]\ne-mail / e-bost: [email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n\nConsider the environment.

D. Carroll, has not answered a sequence of written enquiries spanning more than six months. I am going above him for that reason alone. I am not asking you to adjudicate the historic title dispute. I am asking that a constituent with a documented family interest in the ward receive a reply that the ward member has declined to give.\n\nI understand that elected members do not have a line manager in the employment sense. Councillor Carroll is Leader of the Conservative Group. You are the political head of the authority. After the ward member and the Monitoring Officer, you are the proper next addressee.\n\nWhy I am writing to you rather than waiting further\n\n1. Councillor Carroll has not sent a single substantive reply to me at [email redacted]<[email redacted]>.\n2. On 27 July 2026 I filed a formal complaint about that silence (copied to him, Democratic Services and the Monitoring Officer).\n3. On 12 August 2026 Victoria Davidson, Monitoring Officer, wrote that the matter fell outside the Corporate Concerns and Complaints Policy and that she had not identified a Code of Conduct breach. That determination did not require him to respond. It left the original questions unanswered.\n4. I followed up with the Monitoring Officer on 12 August, 21 August and 24 August 2026. The position did not change.\n5. I copied Councillor Carroll again on 28 August 2026 (joint letter with Stephen Doughty MP). Still no reply from him.\n\nThe questions he has not answered include a simple, current, ward-level one: who removed the tree my great-grandfather planted to mark the family’s claim, as recorded in the Collection of Wales / archival image. That is a local enquiry a ward member can signpost to Parks, Highways, Planning or the landowner. It is not a request that he retry BP Properties Ltd v Buckler.\n\nFrom his public output, Councillor Carroll appears to concentrate on blocked drains, potholes and similar highway defects. Those matters matter. The correspondence I sent him is of a different character: heritage, planning and enforcement records, the 1988 demolition of Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), now Church View Close, and the removal of a commemorative tree. I accept that may be outside the type of casework he usually handles. That is why a short, honest reply — even if only to say the questions sit with named officers, and to pass the tree query to the correct department — would have been sufficient. Silence is not.\n\nRecorded approaches to Councillor Carroll ([email redacted]<[email redacted]>)\n\nAll sent. No substantive reply on any of them.\n\n- 16 February 2026 — “Title Fraud and Procedural Concealment – Church View Close, Llandough (formerly Great House Farm / Ty Mawr)”. Planning and record-keeping gaps; 1988 demolition.\n- 4 May 2026 — follow-up on BP v Buckler 1987; ITV footage; request for attention as Llandough councillor.\n- 3 May 2026 — joined the public “George Carroll for Llandough” Facebook group (approved). Not a substitute for a council-email reply.\n- 9 May 2026 — a wider formal notice also addressed to [email redacted]<[email redacted]>. That address bounced. Subsequent mail used the correct gdcarroll@ address.\n- 7 June 2026 — “Church View Close, Llandough”. 1988 events from public records, family testimony and media.\n- 25 June 2026 — “Great House Farm, Llandough”. Asked whether he had reviewed the earlier concerns and whether any discussion was possible.\n- 13 July 2026 — “Great House Farm / Church View Close”. Full timeline restated. Ten-working-day request. Explicit question: who removed the tree my great-grandfather planted to commemorate the ownership claim, as shown in the Collection of Wales archive image.\n- 27 July 2026 — formal complaint to [email redacted]<[email redacted]>, copied to Councillor Carroll, Democratic Services and the Monitoring Officer.\n- 28 August 2026 — further letter to Councillor Carroll and Stephen Doughty MP on the same site.\n\nWhat I am asking you to do\n\n1. Note that the ward member has not answered, and that the complaint process produced no requirement that he do so.\n\n2. Ask Councillor Carroll, or the relevant Director, to provide a short written reply on the tree: which department or landowner authorised or carried out its removal, on what date, and under what power or works order — or to confirm that the Council holds no such record.\n\n3. Identify the correct officer contact for heritage, trees and historic planning records at Church View Close / former Great House Farm, so I am not left circling a silent ward inbox.\n\n4. Confirm whether the Council will treat a documented family connection to a demolished historic farmstead in the ward as a legitimate basis for a reply, even where the correspondent is not presently resident in Llandough.\n\nThe thesis of my concern is that the lawfare/ warfare that systematically attempted to make our occupancy permissive as early as the 40's (with my grandmothers statement of title being stolen, a failed attempt to get us into a tenancy afterwards, and ambiguity in a 1955 order for another parcel we leased and defaulted on, which later meant it was able to be misinterpreted to make it appear our parcel of land (now Church View Close) was part of theirs, like it was in 1916 - 1928) is a racket. The ownership dispute was a problem created. The reaction followed and the solution was to focus on possession. And so in 1987 BP were awarded possession with what was a defective title chain.\n\nI do not expect you to reopen 1987 litigation. I do expect the authority, once the ward member has been given months and a formal complaint, to answer a factual question about a tree on land in that ward. Because that tree was part of a long list of evidence supporting our ownership claim.\n\nI can supply the original emails and the 27 July complaint in full if Democratic Services does not already have them. See attached the aforementioned tree planting ceremy image. I also enclose a draft chancery court allocation so you can understand the legal arguments.\n\nDue to a lot of suspicious and conveniently timed deaths in our family, surrounding this case, like my grandmother dying in the 2 weeks she will have had to challenge BP quietly registering our land parcel in their names in 1983, without declaring our ownership claim, which was never exstinguished as the first 1974 court case was ajourned. Or my fathers death after his appeal of the 1987 ruling was dismissed on grounds of \"heads BP win, tails we lose\". Followed by ECHR rejection citing BP own the land, despite BP only seeking possession and never seeking or gaining ownership.\n\nI have a trove of evidence and I am collecting more and investigating and in talks with CPS and Fraud Police and MoJ and Land Registry. The initial thing I would like from you is the record of the removal of the tree we planted. The picture attached depicts its location. I'd like to know who removed it and when it was removed?\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Hywel Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/ Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n[address redacted], Dinas Powys, [postcode redacted]\n\n[cid:image001.jpg@01DD477E.9C9D0350]"},{"id":"gm-1a0b4a2578a1c042","subject":"Re: From the Office of Stephen Doghty MP","name":"Re: From the Office of Stephen Doghty MP","date":"2026-09-18T13:08:52Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0b4a2578a1c042.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0b3cb33eb0553d-from-the-office-of-stephen-doghty-mp","scopeTopics":["mp"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["mp"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0b3cb33eb0553d","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"mp","name":"Member of Parliament"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0b4a2578a1c042.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Thank you.\n\nCould we meet so that I may explain this to you in person? I flew back from\nArgentina for this. I'm at my house in Dinas Powys, which has been my home\nsince, Great House Farm, Llandough is my previous address. I'm registered\nto vote, I am a constituent. And my last employer was the Vale Council.\n\nI left my military career with full honours. I'm a decorated war veteran.\nI'm in full mental and physical health. I just wholeheartedly reject a\nterrorist/ hostage situationship/ relationship. I don't play the role of\nanyone's prisoner of war or hostage well.\n\nThe land registry didn't appear to have notified my grandmother. She also\nconveniently died in the 2 weeks she will have had to challenge this had\nshe known. Land registry also seem to have somehow looked at the 1974 court\nproceedings between BP and my disabled, widow, pensioner grandmother Mary\nWilliams and selectively not seen her on there. The licence letters BP\npresented also said Mrs Buckler, her name was Mrs Williams. She was only a\nBuckler from marriage in 1935 for a brief period afterwards. In that period\nshe was married to her husband Fredrick Buckler,  they were presented a\ntenancy for the parcel of land they lived on and claimed to own, which my\ngrandmother rejected specifically asserting ownership. Despite reporting\n(as per her statement) her paper title deeds were stolen shortly\nbeforehand. Therfore the land registry didn't consult Mrs Williams, and\ndidn't challenge the discrepancy with the name difference in 1982/1983,\nthey instead fished out my 1935 marriage certificate with Mr Buckler, to\nofficiate and provide supporting evidence of a Mrs Buckler. So much of all\nof this was done by force/ stealth, secrecy and license. BP also moved the\ndescriptor from their parcel to our parcel in 1971 on the ordinance survey.\nMaking it more neatly appear to be the subject of thr 1962 possession order\nfor our parcel. Which was itself possible generated in secrecy, as it was\nrecorded as not being enforced, only the interest in it conveyed to BP in\n1969. But that 1962 order, is based on misinterpretation of the ambiguity\nin the 1955 order.\n\nThe 1955 order is for the \"whole farm\" and excluded our parcel because of\nmy nans \"condition and resistenance\" having just had her leg amputated. But\nthe definition of whole farm had changed from the 1916 agricultural tenancy\nit was based on, from 2 parcels to 1 parcel. Our parcel wasn't in what was\nconveyed from marquess of bute to western ground rents in 1938. Because\nthe 1977 Daniel Thomas & Son agreement enacted in 1928 when the last quarry\nmachine left. Nor was our parcel in the revised tenancy between Western\nGround Rents and my great grandfather in 1939. So the definition \"whole\nfarm\" in the 1955 order didn't include our parcel of land but was treated\nas though it was, just temporarily excluded due to my nans \"condition and\nresistenance\". And her condition and resistance was, like in 1949's\nrejection of WGR's attempt to offer her and her husband a tenancy on her\nown land, rejected due to her ownership claim.\n\nThere's a rumour her own husband stole her title deed and pawned it, but\nthat would still be theft and my grandmothers and us heirs and successors\ninterest would remain in the land. But keeping her as Mrs Buckler when she\nwasn't appeared to be important to BP. Even in the 1987 case the judge\ndefended our family when BP tried to claim Mr Fredrick Buckler (my grandad)\nexpressed interest in the 1949 tenancy offer, and in doing so waivered any\nownership claim in any case, which the judge actually rejected.\n\nIrrespective of if Frederick Buckler was or was not involved in my\ngrandmothers and dad's and our current generations highly unlawful,\nunconstitutional, inhumane and illegal dispossession of our land and home\nis largely inconsequential. The judge even said that would have died when\nhe died. And the conveniently timed deaths of my grandad, nan, father also\nraise bigger concerns here.\n\nThe core issue is the 1916 agricultural tenancy from Bute to our family was\n2 parcels. Our house and farm north of the church, with woodland north of\nthat. And the land to the east of this parcel (see attached) we leased,\ndefaulted on and was repossessed. But merging our parcel into the parcel\npossessed, and ignoring the split so that from 1916 to 1983 the \"whole\nfarm\" can appear and be treated as one parcel, with WGR and later BP\nappearing to own both parcels during that split is fraud. Fraud unravels\nall. Not withstanding the Government involvement and concealment. And so\nthe statue of limitation doesn't apply. I am seeking to reopen this case.\nAnd have ownership adjuctated, as the ownership ruling was adjourned and\nonly possession was awarded and final.\n\nWe also don't seek possession of the 13 houses, which were being planned to\ngo on our land long before ownership was even tried in 1974 (and\npetitioned) and long before even possession was awarded to BP in 1987. They\ndidn't even have the land to give, in 1974, when they gave their licence\nletters. Their title for our parcel was defective all along.\n\nLand registry took the ploy by WGR and BP to make our occupancy permissive,\nwhich wasn't just in 1974 with the licence letters, but the ambiguity\ninjected into the 1955 order so it could later be misinterpreted, like with\nthe stealthful 1962 (unenforced/ possibly undeclared) possession order for\nour parcel based on misinterpretation of the ambiguity inserted into the\n1955 order. Not withstanding the 1949 and other 40's attempt to make our\nownership claim difficult to prove and our occupancy permissive.\n\nI've even had archives check the content of packets to see if their titles\nhad been tampered with and they confirm there was errors. Much like records\nare missing or alleged to have been destroyed with no authorised record\ndisposal registery entry. I also believe I may have located other records\nwhich support our ownership claim but the titles have been altered so as\nthey don't appear in searched.\n\nI have only 6 years from discovery of fraud to reopen this case, and I'm\nconcerned the local authories months of lies, negligence, incompetence,\nrail roading, obstructing, time waiting, refusals to co-operate is an\noutrage. I'm furious at this. Surely local authories should want correct\nrecords as fudiaries. Surely concealment of the sites historic and\narcheligical significance needs to end at some point.\n\nAs stated, I'm having to reconstruct a replica of our former 800 year old\nhome as a museum in patagonia, just to tell the story of the Roman Villa\nunder it, the largest most significant medieval burials site, Cedwyn,\nPeerless Jim fighting his first fight in our barn. Because everyone here is\nbeing as dead as a door nail about this scandal. Which isn't just upon my\nfamily but it is and always was a matter of public interest. 2,200 year old\nceltic round houses also we're discovered under our farm house. The church\nbuilt in 1840 also got grade II listing with ease in 1989, after our 1200's\nhome was denied it in 1988. Despite a huge huge pile of advice to\nacknowledge it's historic significants. Much evidence was ignored, IS\nMISSING, was downplayed etc.\n\nSorry but people got bought. The council, CADW, the list goes on and on. I\nam a cyber and electronic warfare professional and I have AI and it's not\njust I have the intelligence to make sense of this. But the responses I get\nto even FOI's the last year make it very damming for all parties involved.\nMore damming that things already are for local authories.\n\nSouth Wales police first said they held no records. Then I cited collar\nnumbers of officers and some info I have from my father's diaries and\ndeclassified footage. Then they said they'd only speak by phone not in\nwriting. Always taking the maximum time to respond. So I provided my\nnumber. Then got no call for weeks. So I followed up. They then said I\ndidn't provide my number, when the thread clearly shows my phone number\nprovided in my previous email under their statement fasly alledging I\ndidn't provide a contact number.\n\nI'm a military warfare professional. I have 56 British soldiers in my close\ncommunity. I don't appreciate the effort to drag this matter into the\nshadows, buy time to get to me before I get to the truth and evidence. I\ndon't appreciate clandestine warfare because it will become a case of\nsilence and violence and bloodshed. And this isn't me creating that\nenvironment. I'm insisting on open/ transparent handling of this. Not more\nfighting and more loss of liberty and life than has already been the case.\n\nI also wish to state that this modern land annex racketing (making\noccupancy permissive > ceizing possession) , may extend beyond our sole\nparcel, to other parcels we held before. Ty Mawr was actually the north\nhalf of Llandough and Leckwith up to Ely river. Some 40 parcels. I believe\nCedwyn Estate. Our manorial house and home since 1667 was the manner house.\nAnd many of our dealings with Bute were that of equals and minor gentry. So\nthis unravelling of fraud is only for one land parcel, but more appear to\nexist.\n\nNot withstanding nationwide. We may have identified we are in a land market\nbubble. And so a land market crash may come from this. So I would encourage\nall parties to take this case more seriously as every aspect of it will be\nscrutinised later. And more likely by AI and so with relative ease.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\n\n\n\nOn Fri, 18 Sept 2026, 10:13 DOUGHTY, Stephen, <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Good morning Mr Buckler\n>\n>\n>\n> Following enquiries on your behalf, please see the attached response from\n> Chief Executive and Chief Land Registrar at HM Land Registry.\n>\n> We are sorry to provide what we understand may be a disappointing reply\n> but trust that the information is accurate and goes someway to clarify\n> their position.\n>\n> We are still waiting for a full response from the Ministry of Justice but\n> will of course let you know as soon as we hear back.\n>\n>\n>\n> Kind regards,\n>\n>\n>\n> *Office of Stephen Doughty MP / AS*\n> *Labour and Co-operative Member of Parliament for Cardiff South and\n> Penarth*\n>\n> *Llafur a Cydweithredol Aelod Seneddol dros Dde Caerdydd a Phenarth*\n>\n> *Westminster / San Steffan *| [phone redacted] | House of Commons, London,\n> [postcode redacted]\n>\n> *Email / E-bost                      *| [email redacted]\n>\n> *Website / Gwefan      *          | www.stephendoughty.wales\n>\n>\n>\n> For information about how we use your personal data, see our Privacy\n> Notice <https://www.stephendoughty.wales/privacynotice>.\n>\n>\n>\n>\n>\n> UK Parliament Disclaimer: this e-mail is confidential to the intended\n> recipient.

I accept that Cadw has stated that all records it currently\n holds concerning the 1988 listing decision have been released.\nMy complaint concerns what can properly be established from the surviving evidence, whether the responses I have received have adequately addressed that evidence, and whether the historical record can now be described accurately where the underlying file\n has been lost.\n1. The newly identified 1982 evidence\nI have now identified a 1 October 1982 consultation letter from the Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust concerning the East Vale Local Plan and the proposed Ty Maw Farm site, identified as\nH2.1.\nThe letter states:\n\n“Ty Maw Farm (H2.1) is designated as a three-acre residential site. As you will see from the enclosed information the settlement at Llandough developed considerably from farming and fishing... Recent excavations at Llandough by the Trust revealed early occupation,\n part of the villa and medieval grange buildings. There remains a possibility that occupation continues to the north of the church; provision should be made, therefore, for thorough investigative work prior to the development.”\n\nI do not suggest that this document, by itself, establishes that the standing farmhouse was required to be listed.\nIts significance is narrower and more demonstrable: six years before the 1988 demolition, the archaeological and planning system already contained site-specific information identifying Ty Maw Farm as a proposed development site and recording substantial\n archaeological sensitivity in the immediate Llandough area, including possible continued occupation north of the church.\nThat materially affects the historical context in which Cadw's 1988 assessment needs to be understood.\nI therefore ask Cadw to address:\n\n\nWhether this 1982 information was held by, available to, or capable of being obtained by Cadw in the period leading to the 1988 decision.\n\nWhether Cadw has any surviving evidence showing what archaeological, planning or historic-building information was available to the inspectors or decision-makers in 1988.\n\nWhether there was communication between Cadw and the relevant planning/archaeological authorities concerning the proposed development of Ty Maw Farm and the need for investigation or protection.\n\nIf it is no longer possible to establish whether this evidence was actually considered, whether Cadw will expressly acknowledge that uncertainty rather than treating the absence of the historic file as evidence that the relevant information was absent.\n\n2. The 1974 RCAHMW survey\nI have previously drawn Cadw's attention to the 26 April 1974 Royal Commission survey by H.J. Thomas at ST16817331.\nThat survey recorded Great House Farm as a historic building, including features such as the late seventeenth-century character of the house, its cross-passage arrangement, adze-worked beams, ogee stops and barrel-vaulted cellar.\nCadw has stated that only two photographs from its relevant historic material survive and that it cannot now establish whether the 1974 survey was taken into account in the 1988 listing consideration.\nI accept that this may now be incapable of being proved from the surviving file.\nHowever, there is an important distinction between:\n“Cadw cannot now establish whether the information was considered”\nand\n“there is no evidence that the information was available or relevant.”\nThe surviving RCAHMW material demonstrates that professional historic-building recording existed well before the 1988 decision.\nI therefore ask Cadw to address specifically whether that material was available to Cadw through the inter-agency heritage system at the time and, if so, what can now be established about its availability.\n3. Cadw's own evidence that listing was actively being considered in 1988\nThe surviving contemporary material indicates that in December 1988 Cadw was actively considering emergency protection/spot-listing of Great House Farm, including inspection and consultation concerning the building's historic significance.\nThat is important because it demonstrates that this was not retrospectively invented as a heritage issue decades later. Cadw itself was considering protection immediately before the building was demolished.\nCadw's present position is that the historical listing file no longer survives and that its retention arrangements at the time cannot now be established with certainty.\nI am not asking Cadw to speculate about what a destroyed file contained.\nI am asking Cadw to distinguish clearly between:\n\nwhat the surviving evidence positively establishes;what information was demonstrably available by 1988;what actions by Cadw in 1988 can still be established;what cannot now be established because the historic record has been lost; andany conclusions Cadw considers cannot responsibly be drawn.\nThat distinction is particularly important when assessing whether the surviving record provides a sufficiently reliable account of what happened.\n4. The planning authority and temporary protection\nI also wish to clarify the position concerning temporary protection.\nI am not suggesting that Cadw itself necessarily possessed the statutory power to serve a Building Preservation Notice. I understand that such protection was a matter for the relevant local planning authority under the legislation then in force.\nThe question for Cadw is therefore whether, during the 1988 consideration, \nCadw advised, discussed or communicated with the relevant planning authority concerning any available temporary protection mechanism or the need to prevent demolition pending consideration of listing.\nIf Cadw cannot establish what was discussed because the records no longer survive, that should be stated expressly.\n5. The later description of Great House Farm as “a listed building”\nI have also identified later archaeological/planning documentation in which the former site is described in terms including:\n\n“The site formerly contained Great House Farm (a listed building).”\n\nI am not asserting that this wording conclusively proves that Great House Farm was formally listed at that time.\nI am asking Cadw to explain, insofar as the surviving evidence permits, whether there is any known provenance for that description and whether Cadw considers it accurate, erroneous, or simply impossible now to determine.\nThis is relevant because it illustrates the existence of potentially conflicting historical accounts concerning the building's protection status.\n6. The significance of the loss of the 1988 record\nCadw has understandably stated that the historic file cannot now be produced.\nHowever, the loss of that file creates a historical evidential limitation; it should not automatically resolve questions arising from the surviving evidence in Cadw's favour.\nThe appropriate conclusion may simply be that some aspects of the 1988 decision\ncannot now be reconstructed with certainty.\nI would therefore like Cadw to consider whether its previous responses have drawn that distinction sufficiently clearly.\n7. What I am asking Cadw to do\nI am asking Cadw to treat this as a formal complaint and provide a substantive response addressing the following:\nA. Whether the newly identified 1982 GGAT evidence materially changes Cadw's understanding of the information environment surrounding Ty Maw Farm before the 1988 demolition.\nB. Whether Cadw can establish that the 1974 RCAHMW survey was available to it in 1988.\nC. Whether Cadw can establish what archaeological, planning and historic-building information was available to its officers when the building was being considered for protection.\nD. What can now be established about Cadw's communications with the local planning authority and other heritage bodies during the 1988 listing consideration.\nE. Whether temporary protection was discussed or advised upon and, if not capable of being established, whether Cadw will state that plainly.\nF. What can be established about the inspection of Great House Farm and the ultimate listing decision.\nG. Whether Cadw accepts that the loss of the historic file means that some aspects of the 1988 decision can no longer be reconstructed reliably.\nH. Whether Cadw considers the surviving documentary evidence, including the 1974 survey and 1982 archaeological/planning evidence, should be reflected in any relevant contemporary heritage record or historical account.\nI. Whether Cadw can explain the provenance, insofar as it is capable of doing so, of the later description of the former site as containing “a listed building.”\nJ. Whether Cadw considers that its previous responses have adequately distinguished between the absence of surviving evidence and evidence that something did not happen.\n8. Scope of this complaint\nI want to be clear that I am not asking Cadw to determine my family's wider property or title claims, nor am I asking Cadw to reach a predetermined conclusion about the historical ownership of the land.\nThose matters are separate.\nThis complaint is confined to Cadw's own heritage-related role, the 1988 protection/listing process, the information that can now be established as having existed, and the adequacy and accuracy of Cadw's present explanation of that history.\nI am also not asking Cadw to speculate about missing documents. On the contrary, I ask that the absence of those documents be treated as an evidential limitation and expressly identified as such.\n9. Requested outcome\nI would like Cadw to:\n\n\nRegister this as a formal complaint and provide a complaint reference.\n\nHave the matter reviewed by an appropriate person who has not simply repeated the previous FOI position.\n\nProvide a point-by-point response to the matters above, taking account of the newly identified 1982 evidence.\n\nCorrect or clarify any part of Cadw's previous correspondence that is found to have been incomplete, inaccurate or insufficiently qualified.\n\nState clearly which matters can now be established, which cannot, and which remain uncertain because the historical records no longer survive.\n\nI regard that as a proportionate and reasonable opportunity for Cadw to address the matter directly before I consider whether escalation through the Welsh Government complaints process is necessary.\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a0b2521a96c9c04","subject":"Further to Your Enquiry:  Enquiry Ref: 260918-6720625 Title No: WA240304","name":"Further to Your Enquiry:  Enquiry Ref: 260918-6720625 Title No: WA240304","date":"2026-09-18T02:21:55Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0b2521a96c9c04.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0b2521a96c9c04-further-to-your-enquiry-enquiry-ref-260918-6720625-title-no-wa240304","scopeTopics":["hmlr"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["hmlr"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0b2521a96c9c04","direction":"received","from":"Customer Support","institutions":[{"id":"hmlr","name":"HM Land Registry"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0b2521a96c9c04.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Enquiry Reference: 260918-6720625 Title Number: WA240304\n\nDear Customer\n\nWe've received your enquiry.\n\nWe aim to deal with enquiries as quickly as possible but there may be some delay before we can respond.\n\nPlease bear with us and we will get back to you as soon as we can.\n\nIf you do need to contact us about this enquiry, reply to this email to ensure the correct team can help you.\n\n\nYours faithfully\nHMLR Customer Support\n\n\n\nHM Land Registry's purpose is to protect your land ownership and provide services and data that underpin an efficient and informed property market.

It is not a complaint, not a request to reopen the\nstage 2 review of 25 May 2026, and not a FOIA request.\nI have not previously asked HM Land Registry to record the following\nconstruction of the title chain. I do so now as a factual statement of the\ncase I put on the instruments and their plans. I am not asking you to\ndetermine ownership. I am asking you to confirm what the surviving\nfirst-registration records show about which parcel was lodged.\nThe land I refer to as the House Plot is the former farmhouse, garden and\ncurtilage of Great House Farm, Llandough, immediately west / north-west of\nSt Dochdwy’s Church, later part of Church View Close, [postcode redacted].\nMy case on the chain is:\nThe holding was two parcels. The 1916 Bute agricultural tenancy (John\nWilliams) covered both. Farm rents and cottage rents were accounted\nseparately on the Bute rental listings.\nAfter quarrying ceased in or about 1928, the House Plot was treated as\nsevered from the agricultural tenancy and held as a separate proprietary\nparcel by those through whom I claim.\nThe 1938 conveyance from the Bute interest to Western Ground Rents Limited,\nconstrued against its plan, conveyed the eastern agricultural parcel. It\ndid not convey the House Plot.\nThe May 1939 agricultural tenancy between WGR and John Williams concerned\nthat eastern parcel. It did not comprise the House Plot.\nThe 1955 enforcement papers and the 11 December 1962 Cardiff County Court\npossession order against Frederick Buckler and Mary Williams (sued as Mrs\nBuckler) were directed at the farmhouse and garden. Those proceedings\nasserted a right to possession. They did not construe the 1877, 1938 or\nlater deeds and were not a conveyance of the House Plot into the WGR estate.\nThe 31 December 1969 conveyance (WGR to the BP Pension Trust parties), the\n23 May 1975 conveyance (BP Pension Trust Limited to BP Properties Limited),\nand the 1982 first registration of WA231076 could only pass such land as\nthen stood in that documentary estate. On the construction above, that\nestate did not include the House Plot.\nTitle WA231076 (and WA240304, later amalgamated) nevertheless included the\nHouse Plot. That is the alleged mistake as to extent.\nPlease therefore add these numbered questions to the live enquiry (also\ncustomer-support refs 260812-6561894, 260812-6565153, 260917-6714794,\n260917-6714796 and 260917-6718215):\nConfirm whether any surviving first-registration document for WA231076 or\nWA240304 identifies, by plan, OS parcel, colouring, exception, reservation\nor recital, a distinction between (a) the farmhouse, garden and curtilage\nand (b) the eastern agricultural / quarrying parcel.\nConfirm whether the 1938 Bute–WGR conveyance and plan, or the 1939 tenancy\nand plan, were lodged on either first-registration file.

I accept that Cadw has stated\nthat all records it currently holds concerning the 1988 listing decision\nhave been released.\n\nMy complaint concerns what can properly be established from the surviving\nevidence, whether the responses I have received have adequately addressed\nthat evidence, and whether the historical record can now be described\naccurately where the underlying file has been lost.\n1. The newly identified 1982 evidence\n\nI have now identified a 1 October 1982 consultation letter from the\nGlamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust concerning the East Vale Local Plan\nand the proposed Ty Maw Farm site, identified as *H2.1*.\n\nThe letter states:\n\n“Ty Maw Farm (H2.1) is designated as a three-acre residential site. As you\nwill see from the enclosed information the settlement at Llandough\ndeveloped considerably from farming and fishing... Recent excavations at\nLlandough by the Trust revealed early occupation, part of the villa and\nmedieval grange buildings. There remains a possibility that occupation\ncontinues to the north of the church; provision should be made, therefore,\nfor thorough investigative work prior to the development.”\n\nI do not suggest that this document, by itself, establishes that the\nstanding farmhouse was required to be listed.\n\nIts significance is narrower and more demonstrable: *six years before the\n1988 demolition, the archaeological and planning system already contained\nsite-specific information identifying Ty Maw Farm as a proposed development\nsite and recording substantial archaeological sensitivity in the immediate\nLlandough area, including possible continued occupation north of the\nchurch.*\n\nThat materially affects the historical context in which Cadw's 1988\nassessment needs to be understood.\n\nI therefore ask Cadw to address:\n\n   1.\n\n   Whether this 1982 information was held by, available to, or capable of\n   being obtained by Cadw in the period leading to the 1988 decision.\n   2.\n\n   Whether Cadw has any surviving evidence showing what archaeological,\n   planning or historic-building information was available to the inspectors\n   or decision-makers in 1988.\n   3.\n\n   Whether there was communication between Cadw and the relevant\n   planning/archaeological authorities concerning the proposed development of\n   Ty Maw Farm and the need for investigation or protection.\n   4.\n\n   If it is no longer possible to establish whether this evidence was\n   actually considered, whether Cadw will expressly acknowledge that\n   uncertainty rather than treating the absence of the historic file as\n   evidence that the relevant information was absent.\n\n2. The 1974 RCAHMW survey\n\nI have previously drawn Cadw's attention to the 26 April 1974 Royal\nCommission survey by H.J. Thomas at ST16817331.\n\nThat survey recorded Great House Farm as a historic building, including\nfeatures such as the late seventeenth-century character of the house, its\ncross-passage arrangement, adze-worked beams, ogee stops and barrel-vaulted\ncellar.\n\nCadw has stated that only two photographs from its relevant historic\nmaterial survive and that it cannot now establish whether the 1974 survey\nwas taken into account in the 1988 listing consideration.\n\nI accept that this may now be incapable of being proved from the surviving\nfile.\n\nHowever, there is an important distinction between:\n\n*“Cadw cannot now establish whether the information was considered”*\n\nand\n\n*“there is no evidence that the information was available or relevant.”*\n\nThe surviving RCAHMW material demonstrates that professional\nhistoric-building recording existed well before the 1988 decision.\n\nI therefore ask Cadw to address specifically whether that material was\navailable to Cadw through the inter-agency heritage system at the time and,\nif so, what can now be established about its availability.\n3. Cadw's own evidence that listing was actively being considered in 1988\n\nThe surviving contemporary material indicates that in December 1988 Cadw\nwas actively considering emergency protection/spot-listing of Great House\nFarm, including inspection and consultation concerning the building's\nhistoric significance.\n\nThat is important because it demonstrates that this was not retrospectively\ninvented as a heritage issue decades later. Cadw itself was considering\nprotection immediately before the building was demolished.\n\nCadw's present position is that the historical listing file no longer\nsurvives and that its retention arrangements at the time cannot now be\nestablished with certainty.\n\nI am not asking Cadw to speculate about what a destroyed file contained.\n\nI am asking Cadw to distinguish clearly between:\n\n   - what the surviving evidence positively establishes;\n   - what information was demonstrably available by 1988;\n   - what actions by Cadw in 1988 can still be established;\n   - what cannot now be established because the historic record has been\n   lost; and\n   - any conclusions Cadw considers cannot responsibly be drawn.\n\nThat distinction is particularly important when assessing whether the\nsurviving record provides a sufficiently reliable account of what happened.\n4. The planning authority and temporary protection\n\nI also wish to clarify the position concerning temporary protection.\n\nI am not suggesting that Cadw itself necessarily possessed the statutory\npower to serve a Building Preservation Notice. I understand that such\nprotection was a matter for the relevant local planning authority under the\nlegislation then in force.\n\nThe question for Cadw is therefore whether, during the 1988\nconsideration, *Cadw\nadvised, discussed or communicated with the relevant planning authority\nconcerning any available temporary protection mechanism or the need to\nprevent demolition pending consideration of listing.*\n\nIf Cadw cannot establish what was discussed because the records no longer\nsurvive, that should be stated expressly.\n5. The later description of Great House Farm as “a listed building”\n\nI have also identified later archaeological/planning documentation in which\nthe former site is described in terms including:\n\n“The site formerly contained Great House Farm (a listed building).”\n\nI am not asserting that this wording conclusively proves that Great House\nFarm was formally listed at that time.\n\nI am asking Cadw to explain, insofar as the surviving evidence permits,\nwhether there is any known provenance for that description and whether Cadw\nconsiders it accurate, erroneous, or simply impossible now to determine.\n\nThis is relevant because it illustrates the existence of potentially\nconflicting historical accounts concerning the building's protection status.\n6. The significance of the loss of the 1988 record\n\nCadw has understandably stated that the historic file cannot now be\nproduced.\n\nHowever, the loss of that file creates a historical evidential limitation;\nit should not automatically resolve questions arising from the surviving\nevidence in Cadw's favour.\n\nThe appropriate conclusion may simply be that some aspects of the 1988\ndecision *cannot now be reconstructed with certainty*.\n\nI would therefore like Cadw to consider whether its previous responses have\ndrawn that distinction sufficiently clearly.\n7. What I am asking Cadw to do\n\nI am asking Cadw to treat this as a formal complaint and provide a\nsubstantive response addressing the following:\n\n*A.* Whether the newly identified 1982 GGAT evidence materially changes\nCadw's understanding of the information environment surrounding Ty Maw Farm\nbefore the 1988 demolition.\n\n*B.* Whether Cadw can establish that the 1974 RCAHMW survey was available\nto it in 1988.\n\n*C.* Whether Cadw can establish what archaeological, planning and\nhistoric-building information was available to its officers when the\nbuilding was being considered for protection.\n\n*D.* What can now be established about Cadw's communications with the local\nplanning authority and other heritage bodies during the 1988 listing\nconsideration.\n\n*E.* Whether temporary protection was discussed or advised upon and, if not\ncapable of being established, whether Cadw will state that plainly.\n\n*F.* What can be established about the inspection of Great House Farm and\nthe ultimate listing decision.\n\n*G.* Whether Cadw accepts that the loss of the historic file means that\nsome aspects of the 1988 decision can no longer be reconstructed reliably.\n\n*H.* Whether Cadw considers the surviving documentary evidence, including\nthe 1974 survey and 1982 archaeological/planning evidence, should be\nreflected in any relevant contemporary heritage record or historical\naccount.\n\n*I.* Whether Cadw can explain the provenance, insofar as it is capable of\ndoing so, of the later description of the former site as containing “a\nlisted building.”\n\n*J.* Whether Cadw considers that its previous responses have adequately\ndistinguished between the absence of surviving evidence and evidence that\nsomething did not happen.\n8. Scope of this complaint\n\nI want to be clear that I am not asking Cadw to determine my family's wider\nproperty or title claims, nor am I asking Cadw to reach a predetermined\nconclusion about the historical ownership of the land.\n\nThose matters are separate.\n\nThis complaint is confined to *Cadw's own heritage-related role, the 1988\nprotection/listing process, the information that can now be established as\nhaving existed, and the adequacy and accuracy of Cadw's present explanation\nof that history.*\n\nI am also not asking Cadw to speculate about missing documents. On the\ncontrary, I ask that the absence of those documents be treated as an\nevidential limitation and expressly identified as such.\n9. Requested outcome\n\nI would like Cadw to:\n\n   1.\n\n   Register this as a formal complaint and provide a complaint reference.\n   2.\n\n   Have the matter reviewed by an appropriate person who has not simply\n   repeated the previous FOI position.\n   3.\n\n   Provide a point-by-point response to the matters above, taking account\n   of the newly identified 1982 evidence.\n   4.\n\n   Correct or clarify any part of Cadw's previous correspondence that is\n   found to have been incomplete, inaccurate or insufficiently qualified.\n   5.\n\n   State clearly which matters can now be established, which cannot, and\n   which remain uncertain because the historical records no longer survive.\n\nI regard that as a proportionate and reasonable opportunity for Cadw to\naddress the matter directly before I consider whether escalation through\nthe Welsh Government complaints process is necessary.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\n*Sion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)*\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a0b031458eb1b88","subject":"Re: Welsh Water - Mail reference: 93027237/01","name":"Re: Welsh Water - Mail reference: 93027237/01","date":"2026-09-17T16:26:53Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0b031458eb1b88.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0afe15770e3994-welsh-water-mail-reference-93027237-01","scopeTopics":["dwrcymru"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["dwrcymru"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0afe15770e3994","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"dwrcymru","name":"Dwr Cymru Welsh Water"}],"refs":["93027237/01"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0b031458eb1b88.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Daniel,\n\nThank you for your response concerning mail reference 93027237/01.\n\nI note that Welsh Water's position is that no current records relating to\nGreat House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough have been located, and that Welsh\nWater is unable to establish whether historical records existed, when they\nceased to be held, or whether any records were removed during retention\nprocesses or migration from legacy systems.\n\nFor the purposes of my ongoing investigation, please clarify the following\npoints.\n\n   1.\n\n   You state that your enquiries “indicate that Great House Farm was\n   demolished during the 1980s”.

My concern\nis the conduct, decision-making, record-keeping and accountability of\npublic bodies responsible for heritage protection, planning and local\ngovernment.\n\nThe surviving evidence presents a series of unusually important questions.\n\nGreat House Farm was professionally surveyed by the Royal Commission on the\nAncient and Historical Monuments of Wales in 1974. In December 1988, Cadw\nwas considering the building for emergency spot-listing, with a\ncontemporary report stating that inspectors were due to visit and consider\nthe case. The European Commission of Human Rights records that the\nConvention application had been introduced on 3 May 1988; BP obtained\npossession on 29 November 1988; demolition began on 6 December 1988; and\nthe application was not registered by the Commission until 12 December 1988.\n\nThe evidence therefore establishes a very compressed sequence in which\nemergency heritage protection was being considered, domestic interim relief\nwas refused, possession was obtained and the building was then destroyed\nwithin days.\n\nThat chronology does not, by itself, establish coordination, deliberate\nsuppression or unlawful conduct. It does, however, warrant investigation.\n\nThere are several specific questions which I believe require answers from\nan authority independent of the present local authority:\n\n   1.\n\n   What information and records were actually considered by Cadw when the\n   1988 spot-listing decision was made?\n   2.\n\n   Was the 1974 RCAHMW architectural survey considered, and if not, why not?\n   3.\n\n   What communications took place between Cadw, South Glamorgan County\n   Council, BP Properties Ltd, the courts and any other public bodies during\n   the critical period immediately preceding demolition?\n   4.\n\n   What consideration was given by the local planning authority to the\n   available statutory powers of preservation in circumstances where\n   demolition was imminent?\n   5.\n\n   Why was the building destroyed before there could be an independent\n   retrospective architectural examination of the fabric?\n   6.\n\n   How should the later archaeological evidence, including the discovery of\n   approximately 1,026 burials in 1994, be understood in assessing the\n   historic significance of the site and the adequacy of the earlier\n   decision-making? I recognise that this later discovery cannot\n   retrospectively prove that the 1988 listing decision was unlawful.\n   7.\n\n   A 1989 planning document appears to describe the site as having formerly\n   contained Great House Farm “(a listed building)”. I ask that this apparent\n   discrepancy be investigated and reconciled with the 1988 Cadw decision.\n   8.\n\n   What records relating to these decisions still exist, where are they\n   held, and have reasonable steps been taken to preserve and disclose them?\n\nI am particularly concerned that the destruction of the physical building\nin December 1988 permanently removed primary architectural evidence which\ncould otherwise have been examined independently.\n\nI also ask the Senedd to consider the wider public-interest question:\nwhether the present mechanisms for accountability are adequate where a\nhistoric building is destroyed during a period of rapidly developing legal,\nplanning and heritage proceedings and significant questions remain about\nwhat information was available to decision-makers.\n\nI would therefore ask the Petitions Committee to consider accepting a\npetition on this subject and, where appropriate, referring the matter to\nthe relevant Senedd committee or committees for investigation. I would also\nwelcome consideration of whether an independent public inquiry, committee\ninquiry or other form of external investigation would be appropriate.\n\nI am prepared to provide the underlying documents, chronology, court\nmaterial, heritage records, planning documents and correspondence\nsupporting these questions.\n\nI am not asking the Senedd to adopt my conclusions. I am asking that the\nevidence and unanswered questions be examined independently and that the\nrelevant public bodies be required to account for what they did, what they\nknew, and what records exist.\n\nPlease confirm the appropriate route for submitting this formally to the\nSenedd and whether the material can be referred to the Petitions Committee\nfor consideration.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\n\n\nOn Wed, 12 Aug 2026, 10:13 Pwyllgor Diwylliant, Cyfathrebu, y Gymraeg a\nChwaraeon - Culture, Communications, Cymraeg and Sport Committee,\n<[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler,\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your further correspondence and for clarifying the purpose\n> of your submission.\n>\n>\n>\n> I understand the distinction you draw between seeking a review of the\n> original 1988 decision and raising broader concerns about record-keeping,\n> archival practice, and public accountability.

Its stated purpose is historical\n> record correction, archival explanation and administrative acknowledgement.\n> In particular, it asks for an explanation of why almost none of the records\n> concerning the 1988 assessment survive, whether that reflects the\n> applicable record-retention arrangements, and whether the surviving\n> independent evidence should be properly reflected in the permanent public\n> record.\n>\n> The central issue therefore extends beyond the merits of the individual\n> 1988 listing assessment.\n>\n> Cadw's 2026 FOI response confirms that an assessment took place, but that\n> only two exterior photographs now survive; the assessment report, reasons\n> for refusal, site notes, internal recommendations and consultation\n> correspondence are no longer available. The report does not assert that\n> this proves wrongdoing. Rather, it identifies a straightforward\n> public-administration question: *how can the adequacy and evidential\n> basis of an irreversible public heritage decision be understood or\n> scrutinised when the underlying administrative record no longer survives?*\n>\n> That seems potentially relevant to the Committee's stated function of\n> scrutinising the administration and accountability of Welsh Government and\n> associated public bodies, even if the Committee cannot itself determine\n> whether the 1988 decision was correct.\n>\n> I am therefore not asking the Committee to investigate the Buckler\n> family's historical dispute with BP, adjudicate upon the 1988 decision, or\n> direct Cadw to reverse anything. The specific administrative questions\n> raised in the report are instead:\n>\n>    1. What record-retention arrangements applied to the 1988 assessment?\n>    2. Why do the assessment report, reasons, site notes and consultation\n>    records no longer survive?\n>    3. Were the records destroyed under an applicable retention policy or\n>    other authority, and were they considered for transfer to the appropriate\n>    archival institution?\n>    4. Is the present position consistent with Welsh Government/Cadw\n>    expectations for the preservation of records concerning significant\n>    heritage decisions?\n>    5. Are current arrangements sufficient to ensure that comparable\n>    heritage assessments, particularly where a building is under imminent\n>    threat of demolition, are properly documented and retained?\n>\n> These are not questions that require the Committee to determine the rights\n> of either party to the original dispute. They concern *administrative\n> practice, institutional record-keeping and the ability of the Senedd and\n> the public to scrutinise decisions taken by public bodies*.

It does not\n> claim that Cadw acted unlawfully or in bad faith, and it expressly\n> acknowledges that the absence of the 1988 working papers means that the\n> assessment cannot now be reconstructed definitively.\n>\n> My objective is therefore quite limited: *to ensure that the surviving\n> evidence is preserved, that the archival gap is properly explained, and\n> that the public record accurately distinguishes what is established from\n> what can no longer be verified.*\n>\n> I hope that clarification assists, and I would be grateful if you could\n> confirm whether the Committee is able to consider the matter from that\n> wider public-administration and accountability perspective.\n>\n> Kind regards,\n>\n> Sion Buckler (Ret’d Sergeant)\n> Royal Signals Cyber & Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n>\n>\n>\n> On Tue, 11 Aug 2026, 07:58 Pwyllgor Diwylliant, Cyfathrebu, y Gymraeg a\n> Chwaraeon - Culture, Communications, Cymraeg and Sport Committee, <\n> [email redacted]> wrote:\n>\n> Dear Mr Buckler,\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your correspondence and for sharing the forensic review of\n> Cadw's 1988 assessment of Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough.

Despite these searches, we have been unable to locate any records relating to either the property or yourself on our current systems. Based on the information available, our position remains that we do not hold any records relating to Great House Farm (Ty Mawr).\n\nYou have asked whether records may have existed historically and whether we can provide evidence showing if and when such records were deleted. Unfortunately, as no records relating to the property have been located, we do not hold any corresponding account information, customer records, deletion logs, or audit records that would enable us to confirm whether particular documents once existed or the circumstances in which they may have been removed.\n\nAs previously explained, our enquiries indicate that Great House Farm was demolished during the 1980s. Any customer or property records from that period would fall well outside our applicable retention periods and, consequently, would not be expected to remain available today. Furthermore, during the migration to our current operating systems, not all historic information was transferred from legacy systems. As a result, we are unable to access or recover records that are no longer held.\n\nWhilst I appreciate that this may be frustrating, the absence of records means we are unable to verify whether specific documents once existed, whether they were subsequently removed in accordance with retention requirements, or provide documentary evidence of their deletion. We can only disclose information that is currently held by the company and, following the searches completed, no information relating to the property has been identified.\n\nFor clarity, our position is not that records have been located and are being withheld. Rather, despite conducting further searches using the information available, we have been unable to identify any records relating to the property within the scope of your request.\n\nConsequently, there is no further information that we are able to provide in relation to Great House Farm (Ty Mawr).\n\nOutcome\n\nI appreciate that this may not be the outcome you were hoping for. However, our position remains unchanged, as we do not hold any information relating to the property and are therefore unable to provide any further details regarding its historical records.\n\nLastly, using the information you have provided, my colleague arranged for the £20.00 GSS payment to be issued to your address at [address redacted], [postcode redacted]. The payment should be delivered within 7 days.\n\nIf you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to get in touch by replying to this email, or by calling Customer Care on [phone redacted], available Monday to Friday between 9:00am and 4:00pm. Alternatively, you can contact our Billing Department on [phone redacted], available Monday to Friday between 8:00am and 6:00pm, and Saturday between 9:00am and 1:00pm.\n\nKind regards\n\nDaniel\nCustomer Services\nWeb: www.dwrcymru.com<http://www.dwrcymru.com/>\n\n[cid:[email redacted]71D50]\n\nWe take compliance with Data Protection seriously at Welsh Water.

I would therefore be grateful if you could check your records and confirm:\n\n  1.  Whether the Royal Commission received any notification, consultation, referral or request for advice concerning Great House Farm before its demolition in December 1988.\n  2.  Whether the Royal Commission was asked to inspect, photograph, record or otherwise document the building before demolition.\n  3.  Whether any correspondence exists between the Royal Commission, Cadw, the local planning authority, BP Properties Ltd, or their representatives concerning the proposed demolition.\n  4.  Whether the Royal Commission was given an opportunity to complete or supplement its earlier recording of the farmhouse before demolition.\n  5.  Whether your records contain any photographs, measured drawings, reports, field notes or other documentation relating specifically to the farmhouse immediately before its demolition.\n  6.  If records exist, I would be grateful for the relevant reference numbers and, where possible, copies.\n\nFor context, the Royal Commission had already recorded Great House Farm architecturally in 1974. Contemporary material indicates that the building was subsequently under consideration for emergency listing shortly before its destruction.\n\nThere is also an important chronology concerning the occupation and possession of the property: my late father William Buckler had lodged European Commission of Human Rights application 14464/88 on 3 May 1988; BP obtained possession on 29 November 1988; demolition began on 6 December 1988; and the Strasbourg application was registered on 12 December 1988.\n\nI am not asking the Royal Commission to express an opinion on the ownership dispute or the legality of the demolition. I am simply seeking to establish, from your records, whether the Commission was notified or consulted and what opportunity, if any, it was given to record the building (our home since 1667) before it was destroyed?\n\nGiven the historical and archaeological significance subsequently identified at the site, I would particularly appreciate confirmation of whether any pre-demolition recording was requested or undertaken.\n\nRegards\n[cid:image001.jpg@01DD468C.C3547200]\n\n,\n\n\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber/ Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a0ae09b93ceae38","subject":"Further to Your Enquiry: Ref: 260917-6714796 Title No: WA231076","name":"Further to Your Enquiry: Ref: 260917-6714796 Title No: WA231076","date":"2026-09-17T06:24:26Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0ae09b93ceae38.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0ae09b93ceae38-further-to-your-enquiry-ref-260917-6714796-title-no-wa231076","scopeTopics":["hmlr"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["hmlr"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0ae09b93ceae38","direction":"received","from":"_Central","institutions":[{"id":"hmlr","name":"HM Land Registry"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0ae09b93ceae38.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Enquiry Reference: 260917-6714796 Title Number: WA231076\n\nDear Customer\n\nI am sorry that the wrong contact information was shown on our letter to you.

It is not intended to constitute an\nappeal against a properly made historic planning decision.\n\n\n1. Great House Farm, Llandough (Cardiff not Cowbridge) was recognised as a\nbuilding of historic importance\n\n\nThe planning and archaeological documentation concerning the site\nidentifies Great House Farm as a building of heritage significance.\n\n\nIn particular, the archaeological material identifies the former building\nas a \"county treasure\" associated with SMR 2038s, while earlier\narchitectural recording by RCAHMW describes a substantial historic\nfarmhouse with surviving historic fabric.\n\n\nThe later 1990 archaeological assessment states:\n\n\n«\"Owing to an ownership dispute and the subsequent sudden destruction of\nthe property in 1988 the building was incompletely understood.\"»\n\n\nI regard that statement as highly significant because it records,\ncontemporaneously with the subsequent planning process, that the building\nhad been destroyed suddenly and that its archaeological and architectural\nhistory had therefore not been adequately understood or recorded.\n\n\n2. The Council's apparent failure to take protective action before the 1988\ndemolition\n\n\nI ask the Council to investigate what action, if any, its planning and\nheritage officers took when Great House Farm was at risk of demolition.\n\n\nIn particular, I ask the Council to establish:\n\n\n1. Whether the Council knew that Great House Farm was at risk of demolition\nbefore December 1988.\n\n2. Whether the Council received any notification, complaint, application,\ncorrespondence or other warning concerning the proposed demolition.\n\n3. Whether the building had been considered for statutory listing or other\nstatutory protection.\n\n4. Whether consideration was given to the use of a Building Preservation\nNotice or any other available statutory or administrative mechanism capable\nof preventing or delaying demolition pending assessment.\n\n5. Whether the Council's heritage officers, planning officers or\narchaeological advisers were consulted.\n\n6. Whether any inspection or photographic/architectural record was\nundertaken immediately before or after the demolition.\n\n7. Why, given the building's recognised historic significance, the Council\ndid not secure a comprehensive standing-building record before the building\nwas lost.\n\n\nI am not asserting at this stage that a particular statutory power\nnecessarily had to be exercised. I am asking the Council to investigate\nwhat powers and procedures were available in 1988 and why they were, or\nwere not, used in this case.\n\n\n3. The \"sudden destruction\" of the building requires investigation\n\n\nThe 1990 archaeological assessment expressly attributes the incomplete\nunderstanding of the building to its \"subsequent sudden destruction ... in\n1988\".\n\n\nI therefore ask the Council to establish from its records:\n\n\n- the date on which it first became aware of the proposed or actual\ndemolition;\n\n- the identity of the relevant officers;\n\n- whether the Council received complaints or reports concerning demolition\nactivity;\n\n- whether any site visit took place;\n\n- whether any notice, warning, enforcement action, preservation action or\nother intervention was considered;\n\n- and whether the Council has retained records explaining why the\ndemolition was allowed to proceed.\n\n\nThis is particularly important because the building was subsequently\ntreated within the planning process as an already-cleared site.\n\n\n4. The 1989 planning application appears to contain a significant\nhistorical discrepancy\n\n\nThe outline planning application submitted by BP Properties Ltd in 1989\nstates, in the section asking which buildings were to be demolished:\n\n\n«\"None.\"»\n\n\nThe same application describes the site as \"Disused\" and the previous use\nas \"Not known\".\n\n\nThis requires explanation because the application followed the demolition\nof Great House Farm in December 1988 by approximately one year.\n\n\nI ask the Council to investigate whether its planning officers:\n\n\n- were aware of the former Great House Farm building when the 1989\napplication was processed;\n\n- knew when and how it had been demolished;\n\n- checked the accuracy of the applicant's statement that no buildings were\nto be demolished;\n\n- identified the former farmhouse in the planning history and supporting\ndocumentation;\n\n- and considered whether the demolition itself raised any planning,\nheritage or enforcement issue requiring investigation.\n\n\nI am particularly concerned that the planning process appears to have\nproceeded on the basis of a cleared site without first establishing the\ncircumstances in which the historic building had disappeared.\n\n\n5. Failure to create an adequate record of the lost building\n\n\nThe subsequent archaeological documentation states that the building was\n\"incompletely understood\".\n\n\nI ask the Council to explain what mitigation, recording or investigation it\nrequired in consequence.\n\n\nThe documentary evidence presently available indicates that substantial\nhistoric fabric and multiple phases of the building existed, yet the\nbuilding was destroyed without a complete standing-building survey having\nbeen secured.\n\n\nI therefore ask the Council to identify:\n\n\n- all surveys undertaken before demolition;\n\n- all surveys undertaken after demolition;\n\n- all archaeological or architectural advice obtained by the Council;\n\n- all photographs held by the Council;\n\n- all correspondence concerning the building's architectural or historic\nimportance;\n\n- and the Council's policy or practice in 1988 concerning the recording of\nsignificant unlisted historic buildings at risk.\n\n\n6. Subsequent planning treatment of the site\n\n\nFollowing demolition, the planning process concentrated heavily on\nbelow-ground archaeology, ultimately resulting in archaeological\ninvestigation of the cemetery and associated remains.\n\n\nI do not suggest that archaeological excavation was inappropriate. My\nconcern is that the destruction of the standing historic building appears\nto have been treated as a fait accompli rather than as an event requiring\naccountability and an explanation of how the Council's heritage\nresponsibilities had been discharged.\n\n\nThe later planning documentation should therefore be reviewed alongside the\nrecords relating to the 1988 demolition.\n\n\nIn particular, I ask the Council to identify precisely when the planning\nauthority first recorded the former farmhouse as demolished and what\nexplanation was placed on the planning file for its loss.\n\n\n7. Matters I ask the Council to investigate\n\n\nPlease investigate and provide a substantive response to the following\nquestions:\n\n\nA. What did Vale of Glamorgan Council know about the impending demolition\nof Great House Farm before December 1988?\n\n\nB. What statutory and non-statutory heritage protections were available to\nthe Council at the time?\n\n\nC. Were any of those mechanisms considered or discussed?\n\n\nD. Were any Building Preservation Notice, listing, enforcement, urgent\nworks, archaeological recording or other protective measures considered?\n\n\nE. Why was the building apparently destroyed without a comprehensive\nstanding-building survey?\n\n\nF. What records does the Council hold concerning the demolition itself?\n\n\nG. Why did the 1989 planning application proceed despite the recent\ndemolition of a building identified in the archaeological record as a\n\"county treasure\"?\n\n\nH. Why was the applicant's answer \"None\" given to the question concerning\nbuildings to be demolished, and did the Council investigate the apparent\ndiscrepancy?\n\n\nI. Did any Council officer consider whether the 1988 demolition constituted\na breach of planning control or otherwise required investigation?\n\n\nJ. Did the Council investigate whether the building had been demolished\nlawfully?\n\n\nK. What heritage assessment was undertaken before the subsequent\ndevelopment permissions were processed?\n\n\nL. What lessons has the Council subsequently incorporated into its\nprocedures for County Treasures and other locally significant historic\nbuildings?\n\n\n8. Records requested as part of the investigation\n\n\nPlease preserve and review all relevant records, including planning files,\nenforcement records, heritage files, committee papers, officer reports,\ninternal correspondence, site inspection notes, photographs, archaeological\ncorrespondence and consultation records concerning:\n\n\n- Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr / Cedfin / Cydfin;\n\n- SMR/HER reference 2038s / GGAT02038s;\n\n- the December 1988 demolition;\n\n- the 1989 outline planning application;\n\n- the 1990 archaeological assessment;\n\n- and the subsequent reserved matters/development applications.\n\n\nI would also ask that the Council identify any material which has been\ndestroyed or cannot now be located, together with the applicable\nretention/disposal record where one exists.\n\n\n9. Outcome sought\n\n\nI am seeking a formal investigation and a reasoned written explanation of\nthe Council's actions and omissions.\n\n\nIn particular, I ask the Council to determine:\n\n\n1. Whether its officers discharged the heritage and planning\nresponsibilities applicable at the time.\n\n2. Whether any failure occurred in relation to the identification,\nprotection, recording or investigation of Great House Farm.\n\n3. Whether the Council's handling of the 1989 planning application\nappropriately addressed the recent demolition of the building.\n\n4.

What procedural lessons arise from the case.\n\n\nI also request disclosure of the relevant non-exempt records identified\nduring the complaint investigation, where these are not otherwise\navailable. I recognise that requests for specific recorded information may\nneed to be dealt with separately under the appropriate information-access\nregime.\n\n\nI have only recently been able to examine and correlate the surviving\nplanning, archaeological and heritage documentation sufficiently to\nidentify these issues. I therefore ask that the Council accepts the\ncomplaint for investigation notwithstanding the age of the events concerned.\n\n\nPlease acknowledge receipt and confirm the complaint reference and the\nofficer responsible for its investigation.\n\n\nYours faithfully,\n\n\nSion Buckler of Great House Farm, Llandough-juxta-Penarth, particularly the\ncircumstances surrounding its demolition in December 1988 and the\nsubsequent planning process.\n\nPlease register this as a formal complaint under the Council's corporate\ncomplaints procedure and provide me with a complaint reference number.\n\nThis complaint concerns the Council's administration and exercise of its\nplanning and heritage responsibilities. It is not intended to constitute an\nappeal against a properly made historic planning decision.\n1. Great House Farm was recognised as a building of historic importance\n\nThe planning and archaeological documentation concerning the site\nidentifies Great House Farm as a building of heritage significance.\n\nIn particular, the archaeological material identifies the former building\nas a \"county treasure\" associated with SMR 2038s, while earlier\narchitectural recording by RCAHMW describes a substantial historic\nfarmhouse with surviving historic fabric.\n\nThe later 1990 archaeological assessment states:\n\n\"Owing to an ownership dispute and the subsequent sudden destruction of the\nproperty in 1988 the building was incompletely understood.\"\n\nI regard that statement as highly significant because it records,\ncontemporaneously with the subsequent planning process, that the building\nhad been destroyed suddenly and that its archaeological and architectural\nhistory had therefore not been adequately understood or recorded.\n2. The Council's apparent failure to take protective action before the 1988\ndemolition\n\nI ask the Council to investigate what action, if any, its planning and\nheritage officers took when Great House Farm was at risk of demolition.\n\nIn particular, I ask the Council to establish:\n\n   1. Whether the Council knew that Great House Farm was at risk of\n   demolition before December 1988.\n   2. Whether the Council received any notification, complaint,\n   application, correspondence or other warning concerning the proposed\n   demolition.\n   3. Whether the building had been considered for statutory listing or\n   other statutory protection.\n   4. Whether consideration was given to the use of a Building Preservation\n   Notice or any other available statutory or administrative mechanism capable\n   of preventing or delaying demolition pending assessment.\n   5. Whether the Council's heritage officers, planning officers or\n   archaeological advisers were consulted.\n   6. Whether any inspection or photographic/architectural record was\n   undertaken immediately before or after the demolition.\n   7. Why, given the building's recognised historic significance, the\n   Council did not secure a comprehensive standing-building record before the\n   building was lost.\n\nI am not asserting at this stage that a particular statutory power\nnecessarily had to be exercised. I am asking the Council to investigate\nwhat powers and procedures were available in 1988 and why they were, or\nwere not, used in this case.\n3. The \"sudden destruction\" of the building requires investigation\n\nThe 1990 archaeological assessment expressly attributes the incomplete\nunderstanding of the building to its \"subsequent sudden destruction ... in\n1988\".\n\nI therefore ask the Council to establish from its records:\n\n   - the date on which it first became aware of the proposed or actual\n   demolition;\n   - the identity of the relevant officers;\n   - whether the Council received complaints or reports concerning\n   demolition activity;\n   - whether any site visit took place;\n   - whether any notice, warning, enforcement action, preservation action\n   or other intervention was considered;\n   - and whether the Council has retained records explaining why the\n   demolition was allowed to proceed.\n\nThis is particularly important because the building was subsequently\ntreated within the planning process as an already-cleared site.\n4. The 1989 planning application appears to contain a significant\nhistorical discrepancy\n\nThe outline planning application submitted by BP Properties Ltd in 1989\nstates, in the section asking which buildings were to be demolished:\n\n\"None.\"\n\nThe same application describes the site as \"Disused\" and the previous use\nas \"Not known\".\n\nThis requires explanation because the application followed the demolition\nof Great House Farm in December 1988 by approximately one year.\n\nI ask the Council to investigate whether its planning officers:\n\n   - were aware of the former Great House Farm building when the 1989\n   application was processed;\n   - knew when and how it had been demolished;\n   - checked the accuracy of the applicant's statement that no buildings\n   were to be demolished;\n   - identified the former farmhouse in the planning history and supporting\n   documentation;\n   - and considered whether the demolition itself raised any planning,\n   heritage or enforcement issue requiring investigation.\n\nI am particularly concerned that the planning process appears to have\nproceeded on the basis of a cleared site without first establishing the\ncircumstances in which the historic building had disappeared.\n5. Failure to create an adequate record of the lost building\n\nThe subsequent archaeological documentation states that the building was\n\"incompletely understood\".\n\nI ask the Council to explain what mitigation, recording or investigation it\nrequired in consequence.\n\nThe documentary evidence presently available indicates that substantial\nhistoric fabric and multiple phases of the building existed, yet the\nbuilding was destroyed without a complete standing-building survey having\nbeen secured.\n\nI therefore ask the Council to identify:\n\n   - all surveys undertaken before demolition;\n   - all surveys undertaken after demolition;\n   - all archaeological or architectural advice obtained by the Council;\n   - all photographs held by the Council;\n   - all correspondence concerning the building's architectural or historic\n   importance;\n   - and the Council's policy or practice in 1988 concerning the recording\n   of significant unlisted historic buildings at risk.\n\n6. Subsequent planning treatment of the site\n\nFollowing demolition, the planning process concentrated heavily on\nbelow-ground archaeology, ultimately resulting in archaeological\ninvestigation of the cemetery and associated remains.\n\nI do not suggest that archaeological excavation was inappropriate. My\nconcern is that the destruction of the standing historic building appears\nto have been treated as a fait accompli rather than as an event requiring\naccountability and an explanation of how the Council's heritage\nresponsibilities had been discharged.\n\nThe later planning documentation should therefore be reviewed alongside the\nrecords relating to the 1988 demolition.\n\nIn particular, I ask the Council to identify precisely when the planning\nauthority first recorded the former farmhouse as demolished and what\nexplanation was placed on the planning file for its loss.\n7. Matters I ask the Council to investigate\n\nPlease investigate and provide a substantive response to the following\nquestions:\n\nA. What did Vale of Glamorgan Council know about the impending demolition\nof Great House Farm before December 1988?\n\nB. What statutory and non-statutory heritage protections were available to\nthe Council at the time?\n\nC. Were any of those mechanisms considered or discussed?\n\nD. Were any Building Preservation Notice, listing, enforcement, urgent\nworks, archaeological recording or other protective measures considered?\n\nE. Why was the building apparently destroyed without a comprehensive\nstanding-building survey?\n\nF. What records does the Council hold concerning the demolition itself?\n\nG. Why did the 1989 planning application proceed despite the recent\ndemolition of a building identified in the archaeological record as a\n\"county treasure\"?\n\nH. Why was the applicant's answer \"None\" given to the question concerning\nbuildings to be demolished, and did the Council investigate the apparent\ndiscrepancy?\n\nI. Did any Council officer consider whether the 1988 demolition constituted\na breach of planning control or otherwise required investigation?\n\nJ. Did the Council investigate whether the building had been demolished\nlawfully?\n\nK. What heritage assessment was undertaken before the subsequent\ndevelopment permissions were processed?\n\nL. What lessons has the Council subsequently incorporated into its\nprocedures for County Treasures and other locally significant historic\nbuildings?\n8. Records requested as part of the investigation\n\nPlease preserve and review all relevant records, including planning files,\nenforcement records, heritage files, committee papers, officer reports,\ninternal correspondence, site inspection notes, photographs, archaeological\ncorrespondence and consultation records concerning:\n\n   - Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr / Cedfin / Cydfin;\n   - SMR/HER reference 2038s / GGAT02038s;\n   - the December 1988 demolition;\n   - the 1989 outline planning application;\n   - the 1990 archaeological assessment;\n   - and the subsequent reserved matters/development applications.\n\nI would also ask that the Council identify any material which has been\ndestroyed or cannot now be located, together with the applicable\nretention/disposal record where one exists.\n9. Outcome sought\n\nI am seeking a formal investigation and a reasoned written explanation of\nthe Council's actions and omissions.\n\nIn particular, I ask the Council to determine:\n\n   1. Whether its officers discharged the heritage and planning\n   responsibilities applicable at the time.\n   2. Whether any failure occurred in relation to the identification,\n   protection, recording or investigation of Great House Farm.\n   3. Whether the Council's handling of the 1989 planning application\n   appropriately addressed the recent demolition of the building.\n   4. Whether any relevant records have been lost or destroyed and, if so,\n   when and under what retention arrangements.\n   5. What procedural lessons arise from the case.\n\nI also request disclosure of the relevant non-exempt records identified\nduring the complaint investigation, where these are not otherwise\navailable. I recognise that requests for specific recorded information may\nneed to be dealt with separately under the appropriate information-access\nregime.\n\nI have only recently been able to examine and correlate the surviving\nplanning, archaeological and heritage documentation sufficiently to\nidentify these issues. I therefore ask that the Council accepts the\ncomplaint for investigation notwithstanding the age of the events concerned.\n\nPlease acknowledge receipt and confirm the complaint reference and the\nofficer responsible for its investigation.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\n\n\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a0ad6441e1b82e9","subject":"Great House Farm, Llandough","name":"Great House Farm, Llandough","date":"2026-09-17T03:23:43Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0ad6441e1b82e9.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a0ad615441a4131-great-house-farm-llandough","scopeTopics":["rcahmw"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["rcahmw"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a0ad615441a4131","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"rcahmw","name":"RCAHMW (Royal Commission)"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0ad6441e1b82e9.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Royal Commission,\n\nI am researching the demolition of Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr),\nLlandough-juxta-Penarth, in December 1988 (HER reference GGAT02038s / ST\n1681 7331).\n\nI am seeking to establish whether the Royal Commission was consulted or\nnotified before the farmhouse was demolished.\n\nContemporary reports from 3 December 1988 state that Cadw was considering\nemergency protection/listing of Great House Farm and that a Cadw inspection\nwas being arranged, including discussion with the Royal Commission for\nAncient and Historical Monuments.\n\nThe farmhouse was then demolished on 6 December 1988.\n\nI understand that the statutory framework at the time included provisions\nconcerning the recording of historic buildings before authorised\ndemolition.

If none\nexists in the surviving records, confirm that fact in writing.\n\n5. Physical check\nOn 3 June 2026 I asked to inspect the physical files, or scans if the\noriginals are not accessible.

If a point cannot be answered without\nreading a listed item, say so and name the item number.\n\n1. 1971 abstract of title\nEarlier correspondence referred to a 1971 abstract lodged with first\nregistration. It does not appear as a separate item in your 30 July\nschedule. Confirm whether it:\nsurvives as a separate document;\nforms part of a listed item (give the title and item number); or\n\nis no longer held.\n\n2. “No question or doubt” certificate\nEarlier correspondence referred to a certificate that the applicant’s\nsolicitors were “not aware of any question or doubt affecting the title.”\nConfirm whether that wording appears in Form 1E dated 30 November 1982\n(WA231076 item 13), in another surviving document (identify it), or is no\nlonger held.\n\n3.

If none\nexists in the surviving records, confirm that fact in writing.\n\n5. Physical check\nOn 3 June 2026 I asked to inspect the physical files, or scans if the\noriginals are not accessible.

I have received no further response or substantive reply.\n\nOur Response\n\nThe transfer deed, conveyance or other legal instrument by which the Council acquired the land\nThe Council holds a conveyance dated 11 June 1965 made between:\n1.            Lakeside and Llandough Development Company Limited;\n2.            Western Ground Rents Limited; and\n3.            The Glamorgan County Council.\nA scanned copy of the conveyance and its plan is attached (“the 1965 Conveyance”).\n\nThe purchase price or consideration paid for the land\nThe consideration recorded in the 1965 Conveyance is £16,800.\n\nIf the land was gifted, transferred at nominal value or below market value, records explaining the basis of that arrangement\nThe 1965 Conveyance records a purchase for £16,800. No record has been located within the papers held by Legal Services indicating that the land was gifted or transferred at nominal value or below market value.\n\nAny valuation reports obtained before acquisition\nSearches were undertaken with Legal Services and Estates Department. No valuation report relating to the acquisition has been identified. The Council does not hold any valuation report falling within the scope of this request.\n\nAny agreements, correspondence or meeting minutes between the Council and BP, or any BP subsidiary, trust or associated company, concerning the transfer\nNo agreements, correspondence or meeting minutes between the Council and BP or any BP subsidiary, trust or associated company relating to the acquisition of the land have been identified.\n\nAny Cabinet, Committee or Council reports authorising the acquisition\nThe Council has not identified any Cabinet, Committee or Council reports within its current records management systems which fall within the scope of your request. Given the age of the acquisition, any surviving historic records may have been transferred to Glamorgan Archives. You may wish to contact Glamorgan Archives directly regarding records from this period.\n\nAny planning agreements or obligations connected with the transfer\nNo planning agreement or planning obligation connected with the 1965 Conveyance has been identified within the title deeds held by Legal Services or, within the Planning Departments records.\n\nWe have considered this aspect of your correspondence under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.\nThe Council’s Information Governance Team deal with requests on a collective basis and all requests will be considered by different officers. The requests are dealt with via a generic e-mail account so that all officers in the Team can consider correspondence.  There are several reasons why the Information Governance Team work in this way.  One reason is to ensure that correspondence is considered as soon as possible and to ensure that messages or e-mails are not sent to individuals and overlooked within our systems overall.  The information requested is also considered to constitute the personal data of a member of staff and disclosure would amount to disclosure to the world at large. Therefore the Council is unable to provide the name of the individual officer, because it is not considered that there is a lawful basis that would make disclosure fair or necessary in the circumstances.  The Council's correspondence is issued on behalf of the authority, and requests for information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 or the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 are made to the Council as a public authority rather than to individual officers. It is not necessary to know the identity of a particular officer in order to submit a valid request for information.\nIf you are dissatisfied with the handling of your request, you have the right to ask for an internal review. Internal review requests should be made within 40 working days of the date of receipt of the response to your original letter and should be addressed to:\nc/o The Monitoring Officer – [email redacted]\n\nOr by post to The Monitoring Officer, Civic Offices, Holton Road, Barry, [postcode redacted].\n\nPlease remember to quote the reference number above in any future communications.\n\nIf you are not content with the outcome of the internal review, you have the right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision.\n\nThe Information Commissioner can be contacted at:\nInformation Commissioner's Office - Wales\nSecond Floor, Churchill House\nChurchill Way,\nCardiff\n[postcode redacted]\n[phone redacted] / Fax:[phone redacted]\n[email redacted]\n\nKind regards\n\nInformation Governance Officer / Swyddog Llywodraethu Gwybodaeth\nDirector's Office - Resources / Swyddfa’r Cyfarwyddwr - Adnoddau\nVale of Glamorgan Council / Cyngor Bro Morgannwg\ntel / ffôn: [phone redacted]\ne-mail / e-bost: [email redacted] or [email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n\nConsider the environment.

I am\nwriting on behalf of a US-based company to explore the possibility of\nestablishing a unique satellite office in South Wales.\n\nThe interest is in discussing a potential Commercial Guardianship Tenancy\nor alternative lease arrangement for Lavernock Battery and Fort.\n\nI understand that management and ownership of the site involve multiple\nstakeholders, and I am reaching out to gauge your initial interest in such\nan arrangement.\n\nThis proposal is a scenario that solves a common issue for this heritage\nand coastal site—preventing dereliction, vandalism, and weathering through\nactive, professional occupation.\n\n## Why a Commercial Guardianship?\nRather than a traditional commercial takeover, the type of agreement would\nhave a responsible custodians on site. Guardianship tenancies are not new\nto Councils in Wales.\n\nOccupancy would provide:\n\n* Active Security & Maintenance: A regular physical presence on-site to\ndeter anti-social behavior and immediately flag structural or environmental\nissues.\n\n* Preservation of Heritage: respect the Scheduled Ancient Monument status\nof the structures. Any workspace configuration would be entirely\nlow-impact, fully reversible, and designed to protect the historical\nintegrity of the architecture.\n\n* Sympathetic Integration: mindful of the surrounding Lavernock Point\nNature Reserve and local businesses. Small team to operate quietly,\nensuring zero disruption to local wildlife, public footpaths, or\nneighboring holiday operations.\n\nI believe that breathing new life into these historic structures through a\ncontrolled, professional occupancy could be an excellent model for\nsustainable heritage preservation.\n\nI welcome the opportunity to discuss this concept with you and my US\nbusiness associates, to see if a mutual arrangement could be reached. Could\nyou please let me know if this is a proposal your organisations would be\nopen to exploring?\n\nThank you for your time and consideration.\n\nWarm regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n[phone redacted]"},{"id":"gm-1a090fd50150bcee","subject":"RE: Great House Farm, Llandough – Request 00210772 – Internal Review – Formal Chase","name":"RE: Great House Farm, Llandough – Request 00210772 – Internal Review – Formal Chase","date":"2026-09-11T15:01:50Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a090fd50150bcee.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a05eaa94c597908-great-house-farm-llandough-request-00210772-internal-review-formal-chase","scopeTopics":["vale-foi"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["vale-foi"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a05eaa94c597908","direction":"received","from":"FOI Unit","institutions":[{"id":"vale-foi","name":"Vale of Glamorgan Council"}],"refs":["00210772"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a090fd50150bcee.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Mr Buckler\n\nWe are sorry for the delay in providing you with a substantive update in this matter.

Unfortunately, we are still sifting through it to determine its relevance to your request.  It is also not necessarily Council documentation but is nonetheless in the Council’s possession therefore, anything that may be relevant to your request also requires the Council to consider whether or not it should consult with 3rd parties and if necessary consult with them.  We are undertaking the review of the documentation to determine relevance and whether we need to consult with third parties.

D. Carroll, has not\nanswered a sequence of written enquiries spanning more than six months. I\nam going above him for that reason alone. I am not asking you to adjudicate\nthe historic title dispute. I am asking that a constituent with a\ndocumented family interest in the ward receive a reply that the ward member\nhas declined to give.\n\nI understand that elected members do not have a line manager in the\nemployment sense. Councillor Carroll is Leader of the Conservative Group.\nYou are the political head of the authority. After the ward member and the\nMonitoring Officer, you are the proper next addressee.\n\nWhy I am writing to you rather than waiting further\n\n1. Councillor Carroll has not sent a single substantive reply to me at\n[email redacted].\n2. On 27 July 2026 I filed a formal complaint about that silence (copied to\nhim, Democratic Services and the Monitoring Officer).\n3. On 12 August 2026 Victoria Davidson, Monitoring Officer, wrote that the\nmatter fell outside the Corporate Concerns and Complaints Policy and that\nshe had not identified a Code of Conduct breach. That determination did not\nrequire him to respond. It left the original questions unanswered.\n4. I followed up with the Monitoring Officer on 12 August, 21 August and 24\nAugust 2026. The position did not change.\n5. I copied Councillor Carroll again on 28 August 2026 (joint letter with\nStephen Doughty MP). Still no reply from him.\n\nThe questions he has not answered include a simple, current, ward-level\none: who removed the tree my great-grandfather planted to mark the family’s\nclaim, as recorded in the Collection of Wales / archival image. That is a\nlocal enquiry a ward member can signpost to Parks, Highways, Planning or\nthe landowner. It is not a request that he retry BP Properties Ltd v\nBuckler.\n\nFrom his public output, Councillor Carroll appears to concentrate on\nblocked drains, potholes and similar highway defects. Those matters matter.\nThe correspondence I sent him is of a different character: heritage,\nplanning and enforcement records, the 1988 demolition of Great House Farm\n(Ty Mawr), now Church View Close, and the removal of a commemorative tree.\nI accept that may be outside the type of casework he usually handles. That\nis why a short, honest reply — even if only to say the questions sit with\nnamed officers, and to pass the tree query to the correct department —\nwould have been sufficient. Silence is not.\n\nRecorded approaches to Councillor Carroll ([email redacted])\n\nAll sent. No substantive reply on any of them.\n\n- 16 February 2026 — “Title Fraud and Procedural Concealment – Church View\nClose, Llandough (formerly Great House Farm / Ty Mawr)”. Planning and\nrecord-keeping gaps; 1988 demolition.\n- 4 May 2026 — follow-up on BP v Buckler 1987; ITV footage; request for\nattention as Llandough councillor.\n- 3 May 2026 — joined the public “George Carroll for Llandough” Facebook\ngroup (approved). Not a substitute for a council-email reply.\n- 9 May 2026 — a wider formal notice also addressed to\n[email redacted]. That address bounced. Subsequent mail used\nthe correct gdcarroll@ address.\n- 7 June 2026 — “Church View Close, Llandough”. 1988 events from public\nrecords, family testimony and media.\n- 25 June 2026 — “Great House Farm, Llandough”. Asked whether he had\nreviewed the earlier concerns and whether any discussion was possible.\n- 13 July 2026 — “Great House Farm / Church View Close”. Full timeline\nrestated. Ten-working-day request. Explicit question: who removed the tree\nmy great-grandfather planted to commemorate the ownership claim, as shown\nin the Collection of Wales archive image.\n- 27 July 2026 — formal complaint to [email redacted],\ncopied to Councillor Carroll, Democratic Services and the Monitoring\nOfficer.\n- 28 August 2026 — further letter to Councillor Carroll and Stephen Doughty\nMP on the same site.\n\nWhat I am asking you to do\n\n1. Note that the ward member has not answered, and that the complaint\nprocess produced no requirement that he do so.\n\n2. Ask Councillor Carroll, or the relevant Director, to provide a short\nwritten reply on the tree: which department or landowner authorised or\ncarried out its removal, on what date, and under what power or works order\n— or to confirm that the Council holds no such record.\n\n3. Identify the correct officer contact for heritage, trees and historic\nplanning records at Church View Close / former Great House Farm, so I am\nnot left circling a silent ward inbox.\n\n4. Confirm whether the Council will treat a documented family connection to\na demolished historic farmstead in the ward as a legitimate basis for a\nreply, even where the correspondent is not presently resident in Llandough.\n\nThe thesis of my concern is that the lawfare/ warfare that systematically\nattempted to make our occupancy permissive as early as the 40's (with my\ngrandmothers statement of title being stolen, a failed attempt to get us\ninto a tenancy afterwards, and ambiguity in a 1955 order for another parcel\nwe leased and defaulted on, which later meant it was able to be\nmisinterpreted to make it appear our parcel of land (now Church View Close)\nwas part of theirs, like it was in 1916 - 1928) is a racket. The ownership\ndispute was a problem created. The reaction followed and the solution was\nto focus on possession. And so in 1987 BP were awarded possession with what\nwas a defective title chain.\n\nI do not expect you to reopen 1987 litigation. I do expect the authority,\nonce the ward member has been given months and a formal complaint, to\nanswer a factual question about a tree on land in that ward. Because that\ntree was part of a long list of evidence supporting our ownership claim.\n\nI can supply the original emails and the 27 July complaint in full if\nDemocratic Services does not already have them. See attached the\naforementioned tree planting ceremy image. I also enclose a draft chancery\ncourt allocation so you can understand the legal arguments.\n\nDue to a lot of suspicious and conveniently timed deaths in our family,\nsurrounding this case, like my grandmother dying in the 2 weeks she will\nhave had to challenge BP quietly registering our land parcel in their names\nin 1983, without declaring our ownership claim, which was never\nexstinguished as the first 1974 court case was ajourned. Or my fathers\ndeath after his appeal of the 1987 ruling was dismissed on grounds of\n\"heads BP win, tails we lose\".

As I stated in my last email we only hold the record for William Buckler in 1990. I have found Mary Doreen Williams in 1983 on FREEBMD with that volume and page number and it clearly states her name as this. I have also tried with my colleagues in the Barry Register Office and they don’t hold the record there either and they have done a search on various names also. With regards to your email of the 21st August 2026 we cannot comment on individual cases and that is the case for the solicitor. We can only supply copies of the certificates that you are trying to locate. With regards to Mary Doreen Williams as I explained it best to get this certificate from our head office as they hold all the records for England and Wales and you just need to give them the volume and the page number that you have. If you would like to purchase the copy of William Bucklers death certificate then you can either apply online or give us a call on [phone redacted] and we can take the order and payment from you.

Then\ntrying to refer me to other agencies before conducting a search. Then total\ndenial any result were found. Even lying to me. Then a search but negligent\nand incompetently. Then I've actually had to show snippeted of my copies of\nrecords they should hold. Then I've had to insist on internal reviews to be\nsure of what was searched matched what I asked. I've even had conditional\nacceptances whereby even my last employer, of my last of my 22 years in\nOath, the Vale of Glamorgan Council, asked for what I had before they'd\nshow me what they had. Or other oddities.\n\nI know with what happened in the last century with our farmhouse involved a\nlot of scandle, in order to disposses us of our country treasure 800 year\nold home, which we owned, before being removed by force from the land we\nstill own, and demolishing our home since 1667 to develop 20 houses in its\nplace, which the entire community petitioned when the plan was just 13\nhouses, and on a roman villa and monestry and medieval burial site, which\nauthories knew full well was there. I'm just trying to get answers for my\nfamily and to understand what exactly happened in a fact find and on an\nevidence basis. But the Llandough councillors refusal to respond and the\nnon response from MPs is a further outrage on what is already a very\nsensitive subject. My surviving family who didn't die in mysterious ways at\nconvenient times during all this, have been too terrified to speak up or\nout again about any of this, living like hostages under the occupying\nBritish, suffering in silence for the last 38 straight years. And the land\nregistry responses also raise more questions. Many local authorities take\nthe maximum time to respond at each interval. Our family are having to\nre-live a horrendous ordeal, to even say anything about our home and lands\ntrue history and herritage and the defective title upon which 20 family\nhomes now exist.\n\nThe narrative and public records are all very wrong and misleading and\ndeceiving. I have corroborating family testimony confirming records were\nremoved/ stolen and not just from our home but the public library. Many\ninstitutions report gaps in records and cannot account for destroyed/\nmissing records.\n\nSo I thank you in advance for your co-operation in this matter. I believe a\ncollective effort will mean a lot should the Senedd authorise a public\nenquiry or my family get justice. But this was and still is a matter of\nnational public interest.\n\nMarconi was staying with us at our home there, in 1897, while conducting\nthe successful experiment of radio at Lavernock Point.  Meanwhile Cardiff\nCouncil refuse to even put the inventors name on the statue of the radio at\nCardiff Bay because Cardiff is now a city of sanctuary and Marconi was\nright wing politically. And alledgedly an anti semite, but my research from\nthat also suggests that wasn't the case. I'm actually having to depend on\nGermanies spy's accounts of what happened between my family and Marconi due\nto the Brit'ish States concealment and rewriting of history.\n\nWe should remember, especially as Welsh under British occupancy and rule,\nthat the British Establishment invented concentration work camps. And is\nrenowned for ethnically cleansing entire races of indigenous. What my\nfamily and our history and herritage and culture and language were\nsubjected to for the last century, was nothing short of that.\n\nI enclose for your interest ITV footage, unaired/ gatekept, of our home\nbeing looted of all our furniture we got from Cardiff Castle. While my baby\nsister was made to watch. It's believed the BP Bailiffs were in fact\nundercover soldiers.\n\nThe complete story and chronology has not been told. It appears to begin\nwith Cedwyn the giant/ St Cedwyn. A 2,200 year old iron age round house.\n\nThe 1820 church wasn't the first built. And I find it highly suspect CADW\nrejected our 800 year old county treasure home next door, from receiving\nGrade II listing status so it couldn't be demolished, whereas the church,\nalso rebuilt again in the 1840's I believe, was awarded Grade II in 1989.\n\nThere's not even a park bench plaque to Marconi there or a tourist\ninformation board for the rich history and herritage. Church View Close,\nLlandough constitutes a terrorist cell/ network/ concentration work camp.\nThis should be an outrage to any historian. Which isn't my field, I'm just\na military cyber warfare professional.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion\n\n\nOn Tue, 8 Sept 2026, 10:14 FOI Requests, <[email redacted]>\nwrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your email.\n>\n>\n>\n> I note your position and can confirm that FOI:2026-032 will remain open\n> and will be processed separately from FOI:2026-036.\n>\n>\n>\n> In all honesty, my suggestion that FOI:2026-036 replace FOI:2026-032 was\n> not made with a view to aggregating the requests or considering the\n> application of a section 12 exemption.

I do not, however,\nconsider that the review has answered the substantive questions raised in\nmy request for internal review.\n\nI am therefore putting the position on record, while also making a separate\nnew request for recorded information which your review confirms already\nexists.\n\n1. Records identified during the additional searches\n\nOn 14 August 2026, Amgueddfa Cymru stated that the additional enquiries had\nidentified:\n\n\"some information relating generally to Great House Farm and the\nsurrounding area\".\n\nThe internal review now describes these as:\n\n\"a small number of records referring generally to Great House Farm,\nLlandough\".\n\nThe wording has therefore changed slightly, but the material fact has not:\nthe Museum confirms that records referring to Great House Farm were\nidentified.\n\nMy internal-review request specifically asked for those records to be\nidentified and, where not exempt, provided.\n\nThe review does not do so.\n\nSimply stating that the records are considered to fall outside categories 1\nto 9 does not identify what they are, where they are held, when they were\ncreated, or their reference numbers.\n\n2. Archived electronic systems\n\nMy request of 14 August specifically asked:\n\n- which archived systems were searched;\n- the approximate date ranges covered;\n- whether historical email or correspondence archives were searched;\n- whether legacy collections-management databases were searched; and\n- whether any archived systems were unavailable, incomplete or incapable of\nbeing searched.\n\nThe review answers none of these questions individually.\n\nInstead, it states:\n\n\"archived electronic records reasonably capable of containing information\nwithin scope were considered\"\n\nand:\n\n\"Any data stored within a system or database pre-dating the existing\nCollections Management Systems, would have been migrated into the incumbent\nsolution, and therefore included in the search.\"\n\nThe first statement describes a conclusion, rather than identifying the\nsystems actually searched.\n\nThe second is an assumption about migration completeness. \"Would have been\nmigrated\" is not a search result and does not establish that the relevant\nhistorical data was in fact migrated, completely migrated, retained,\nsearchable and included in the particular search undertaken.\n\n3. Correspondence independent of accessioned objects\n\nThis is the most significant issue.\n\nThe original request expressly sought correspondence and administrative\nrecords concerning, among other things:\n\n- identification;\n- recovery;\n- ownership;\n- location;\n- the Buckler and Williams families;\n- Cardiff Council;\n- Cardiff Castle;\n- the Bute Estate;\n- museums; and\n- other public authorities.\n\nThose categories were deliberately not restricted to objects which had\nsubsequently been accessioned by the Museum.\n\nThe review states:\n\n\"As no such objects were identified as having been acquired by the Museum,\nno associated acquisition, provenance, ownership, loan, disposal or related\ncorrespondence concerning such objects was identified.\"\n\nThat reasoning addresses correspondence attached to an identified\naccessioned object. It does not establish that correspondence was searched\nfor independently of an accession record.\n\nFor example, an enquiry concerning an item, a communication about possible\nprovenance, a request to identify an object, a discussion concerning\ntemporary custody, a disposal enquiry, a communication with another\ninstitution, or correspondence about the contents of a property could exist\nwithout the item ever becoming an accessioned Museum object.\n\nAccordingly, the fact that no accessioned object was identified does not\nitself establish that no such correspondence existed or was held.\n\nThe subsequent statement:\n\n\"The review did not identify evidence that the Museum holds correspondence\nconcerning the identification, ownership, recovery or location of Great\nHouse Farm furniture or household effects.\"\n\nstill does not establish whether the relevant correspondence repositories\nwere actually searched.\n\n4. Search terms\n\nMy internal-review request set out specific terms and variants and asked\nthe Museum to confirm whether those terms had been used.\n\nThe review now states only:\n\n\"appropriate search terms and variants were used\"\n\nand refers generally to:\n\n\"location names, property names, family names and associated variants\".\n\nThat does not confirm whether the specific terms identified in my request\nwere searched.\n\nIn particular, the review does not say whether searches included\ncombinations or variants involving:\n\n\"Bute Estate\", \"Bute\", \"Cardiff Castle\", \"Cardiff Council\", \"household\neffects\", \"contents\", \"dispersal\", \"recovery\", \"transfer\", \"demolition\",\n\"provenance\", \"ownership\"\n\nand the other terms specifically identified in my 14 August correspondence.\n\nThe distinction matters because a search for a property name or family name\nis not necessarily equivalent to a search for correspondence concerning the\ndispersal, recovery, transfer or ownership of its contents.\n\n5. Transfer, disposal and destruction\n\nMy request also asked what evidential basis existed for the earlier\nstatement that the Museum was not aware of relevant records having been\ntransferred to another institution or destroyed.\n\nThe review now says:\n\n\"The statement that the Museum is not aware of relevant records having been\ntransferred or destroyed reflects the outcome of the searches undertaken\nand the knowledge of relevant collections staff.\"\n\nThis combines two different things: documentary searches and institutional\nrecollection.\n\nIt does not tell me whether the Museum searched:\n\n- transfer or accession-out records;\n- disposal records;\n- retention and destruction records;\n- archival transfer documentation; or\n- other records capable of establishing whether material had previously\nbeen transferred or destroyed.\n\nThere is an important distinction between:\n\n\"no record of transfer or destruction was identified in the records\nsearched\"\n\nand:\n\n\"there is no evidence that any transfer or destruction occurred\".\n\nThe review does not make that distinction sufficiently clear.\n\n6. Searches concerning external institutions\n\nThe original request expressly contemplated records concerning Cardiff\nCouncil, Cardiff Castle, the Bute Estate and other external bodies.\n\nThe review states:\n\n\"Searches were not limited solely to object catalogue records.\"\n\nThat is helpful, but it still does not identify what non-catalogue\nrepositories were searched.\n\nFor example, it does not identify whether searches were made of curator\ncorrespondence, departmental files, donor correspondence,\nacquisition/disposal correspondence, provenance files, loan files,\ninstitutional correspondence indexes, or other historical administrative\nrecords in which communications with external institutions might have been\nrecorded.\n\nAgain, the issue is not whether the Museum considers the search reasonable.\nIt is whether the relevant classes of records were actually searched.\n\n7. The significance of the \"balance of probabilities\" conclusion\n\nI note the review's conclusion that, \"on the balance of probabilities\", the\nMuseum does not hold recorded information within the scope of the request.\n\nI do not dispute that a negative FOI determination may ultimately be\nreached on that basis.\n\nHowever, the balance-of-probabilities conclusion necessarily depends upon\nthe quality, scope and rigour of the searches on which it is based. The\nICO's guidance states that, where a requester disputes whether relevant\ninformation has been located, the authority should be able to provide a\nreasoned and detailed account of how it determined that further information\nwas not held, including the areas searched, staff consulted and, for\nelectronic searches, the keywords, accounts and time parameters used.\n\nMy concern remains that the review repeatedly substitutes statements such\nas \"we are satisfied\", \"appropriate\", \"reasonably capable\" and \"on the\nbalance of probabilities\" for the underlying factual information about what\nwas actually searched.\n\nI therefore consider the review outcome insufficiently informative on the\nspecific search methodology raised in my review request.\n\nI reserve my right to refer the handling of FOI 2026-020 and the internal\nreview to the Information Commissioner's Office.\n\nSeparate new FOI request\n\nSeparately from the above, I am now making a new request under the Freedom\nof Information Act 2000.\n\nThis new request is deliberately limited to recorded information which your\nown correspondence confirms was identified or generated in connection with\nthe searches already undertaken.\n\nPlease provide:\n\nA. Records identified\n\nThe \"small number of records referring generally to Great House Farm,\nLlandough\" identified during the additional enquiries referred to in your\nemail of 14 August 2026 and the internal review outcome of 8 September 2026.\n\nFor each record, please provide, where recorded:\n\n- title or description;\n- date;\n- collection, series or department;\n- system or repository;\n- reference, accession or record number; and\n- a copy of the record, subject to any applicable exemption.\n\nIf any part of a record is exempt, please identify the exemption relied\nupon and provide the remainder where reasonably practicable.\n\nLimb A is confined to the records your 14 August and 8 September letters\nsay were identified in the FOI 2026-020 additional enquiries. It is not a\nnew collection-wide search. If any of those records are also in scope of\nFOI 2026-032 or FOI 2026-036, please schedule them once and cross-refer.\nPlease do not refuse this request as a duplicate.\n\nB. Existing search records\n\nAny recorded information already held concerning the searches undertaken\nfor FOI 2026-020 or its internal review, including any existing:\n\n- search notes;\n- search logs;\n- search checklists;\n- system lists;\n- search-term lists;\n- IT tickets or instructions;\n- archived-system enquiries;\n- staff search records; or\n- other contemporaneous records documenting the searches undertaken.\n\nI am asking only for recorded information already held. I am not asking the\nMuseum to create a new narrative or retrospective report.\n\nIf no such search records are held, please state that expressly.\n\nPlease register this as a new FOI request and provide it with its own\nreference number. It is not a further internal review of FOI 2026-020, nor\nis it a request to reopen or amend FOI 2026-032 or FOI 2026-036.\n\nI would therefore be grateful if this request could be processed separately\nand not treated as a clarification or continuation of those matters.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a080b3334e0eb9f","subject":"26FOI 103 - Buckler - Acknowledgement","name":"26FOI 103 - Buckler - Acknowledgement","date":"2026-09-08T11:06:22Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a080b3334e0eb9f.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a080b3334e0eb9f-26foi-103-buckler-acknowledgement","scopeTopics":["nio"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["nio"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a080b3334e0eb9f","direction":"received","from":"NIO FOI","institutions":[{"id":"nio","name":"Northern Ireland Office"}],"refs":["26FOI103"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a080b3334e0eb9f.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Sion Buckler,\n\n\nThank you for your enquiry of 29/08/26 to the Wales Office.\n\n\nYour request is being handled under the Freedom of Information Act 2000\n(FOIA).

And it still appears\nto be our land, despite BP being awarded possession in 1987. I discovered\nthat the final ruling (for possession, not determination of ownership) was\nbased on a quiet 1983 land registry by BP of our land, in their names,\nwithout disclosing my disabled widow pensioner’s ownership claim, who also\nconveniently died in the two weeks she would have had to challenge this\nregistration, not that she was even made aware. It also states our\npossession was adverse from 1955. But that was on a land parcel we rented\nand defaulted on, to the east of ours, not the parcel our home and garden\nand farm was on. Our parcel we occupied since 1667; we owned from 1928 when\nwe made our last payment on it. Originally an 1877 agreement which went\nmissing from our home in the 1940s, but even without that paper title,\nhaving not paid since 1928, our possession and ownership would have\nqualified as adverse by 1940.\n\nFurthermore, this 1983 land registry non-contest by my nan was after 55\nconsecutive years of her asserting ownership, after the 1877 agreement\nbetween Bute quarryman Daniel Thomas & Son enacted in 1928, when quarrying\ncompleted. An agreement her statements report was stolen from our home in\nthe mid-1940s. Providing both the name of the thief who confessed to\nstealing it and the estate agent who contracted him to do so.\n\nIt appears from my research so far that while a field we rented to the east\nof our land was repossessed, for which our possession might very well have\nbeen adverse from 1955, our land parcel was falsely and wrongfully treated\nas being part of the systematic repossession of the adjacent land parcel,\nwhich BP merged into theirs in 1983 from what I can gather.\n\nI believe this confusion stems from the definition of “whole farm” (as\ncited in the 1955 court order) which changed from two parcels of land in\nthe 1916 agricultural tenancy (conveyed to Western Ground Rents by the\nMarquess of Bute in 1938) to one parcel of land following the enactment of\nthe 1877 agreement in 1928 (after 51 years of our payments, reportedly £4 a\nyear). Furthermore, the modern tenancy/agricultural tenancy Western Ground\nRents placed my great-grandfather into in 1939 for the land parcel to the\neast of ours was, according to Leckwith archived records, only for the one\nparcel to the east of ours and not both parcels.\n\nIn addition to the definition of “whole farm” being misunderstood to still\ninclude our parcel after 1928, introducing ambiguity in the 1955 order, the\norder of possession for Western Ground Rents’ land parcel to the east of\nthe one we owned and occupied (since 1667) also says our land parcel (home\nand garden) was excluded from the order, but not because we owned it, but\nbecause of my grandmother’s “condition (having just had a leg amputated)\nand her resistance”. It does not mention her assertion of ownership. This\nmade our occupancy appear permissive and is what BP later tried in 1974\nwith their permissive occupancy licence letters. The basis of the pinnacle\nof this dispute: the landmark legal case BP v Buckler 1987.\n\nI say all this at least to defend my grandmother’s honour. After her\nconveniently timed death in 1983, during the 1987 hearing in which she was\nunable to defend herself, the judge took it upon himself to enter onto the\nrecord that my grandmother “conceived the notion” she owned the farm. He\nalso dismissed my father’s appeal, citing that both BP companies were all\nthe same. But in the ruling in BP’s favour prior, the judge said “had my\nnan challenged BP Pension Trust, it wouldn’t have counted as BP Properties,\nthe plaintiff, were a different company”. Which is not just a “heads they\nwin, tails we lose” procedural unfairness matter. But the legal precedent\nthat landmark legal case set by ruling my grandmother “accepted the\npermissive occupancy and offer from BP and their licence letters in 1974,\nbecause she didn’t expressly reject them” is firstly absurd by any sane,\nreasonable person’s standards. Secondly, that 1987 case excluded a\nnewspaper article from 1974 whereby my nan expressly rejects, even got\n1,000+ people to sign a petition against their housing development plan of\n13 houses (likely on their parcel to the east, not ours as they never owned\nours) and the article reports her stating her lawyer had assured her her\nownership claim was valid. And she asserts “it’s my home”.\n\nAnd further to all that, it is documented the court never ruled in 1974.\nNot adjudicating ownership in the first hearing, which was adjourned. And\nnot ruling for possession in the second hearing in 1974, which was quashed.\nFirstly because the clerk called them press when my disabled nan crawled to\ncourt begging for an audience with the judge after forced attempts to\nremove her. Including water being shut off for months, resulting in my\ninfant aunt having to go live with another family. And all our cows\ndrinking from the river and dying. The other factor is while the public and\npress and family all had a victory, my nan’s lawyers, BP and the courts\nquashed the case. But what they did was call to mention the offer to my\nnan, and quashing it instantly before she had opportunity to respond. We\nmay still have the tape recording.\n\nSo it is not a case of her not responding and so she accepted. It is a case\nthat the decades of rejection and petition and press reports were concealed\nand suppressed, along with these important facts, and the backdated licence\nletters BP produced afterwards in 1974 and clandestine 1971 alteration of\nour land parcel on the Ordnance Survey, and conveyance from BP Pension\nTrust to Properties in 1975, and land registration in 1983, unbeknown to us\nor anyone I suspect, was not meeting of the minds by a long shot. Yet was\nall that was heard or considered in 1987. The 1987 case was not judged on\nthe merits of the case as it should not even have been held in the court it\nwas in. The court it was decided in was the least applicable court of them\nall. A Chancery/Queen’s Bench i.e. equity court would have been the\nappropriate court.\n\nFurther to even all this, an attempt was made by Western Ground Rents to\nget my nan into a tenancy in 1949 too, for our plot. Which my nan expressly\nrejected in lieu of her assertion of ownership. Even with our paper title\nstolen prior to that attempt, having not paid since 1928 our possession,\neven if adverse, would have qualified us as owners through adverse\npossession by 1940 in any case.\n\nWGR generated a possession order for our land, based on the ambiguity they\nintroduced into the 1955 order, which was never enforced and is the\ninterest they conveyed to BP in 1969, when conveying the land they\npossessed east of ours. BP then altered the Ordnance Survey in 1971,\nshifting the title “Ty Mawr” from the land parcel to the east onto our land\nparcel. And appending “Farm” to the descriptor. Making our parcel better\nfit the defective title chain being forged, in lieu of my nan’s missing\ntitle chain. The 133 houses they are seeking to build on that land parcel,\nours (now Church View Close) was merged into, is defective. The title chain\ntraces back to and through us to what may be the 1,000 freehold issued by\nKnight Sir Herbert to the Vaughan family in the 1500s. It is even possible\nwe have been playing the role of virtual freeholder on our land parcel, or\neven tenant on the land east of ours. When all things considered, like the\nfact we occupied the manorial house since 1667, may even make it possible\nthat we were and still are the rightful freeholders of Llandough Town\n(formerly Cedwyn Estate), with 640 years left on that freehold. Because\nBute’s purchase of the last Vaughan heirs’ estate reportedly did not\ninclude our Ty Mawr.\n\nAnd Ty Mawr (alias Cefin (a possible attempt at Cedwyn) according to an\n1824 David Stewart survey) was not just our home or land parcel, but enough\nparcels to conclude the estate being half the town of Llandough. So this\nall may be a lot bigger and run a lot deeper than even what I am bringing\nto your attention. Our family also have bloodline connections to the\nVaughan, and so it is not just title, estate and deeds. I only focus on the\nparcel we own, for which possession was awarded to BP, to begin unravelling\ntruths long suppressed and concealed.\n\nIn 1974 an ownership hearing did occur to adjudicate the ownership dispute,\nbut seeing as my nan could not present her title as it was stolen, the\nhearing was adjourned. BP then tried to enforce the 1962 possession order.\n\nSo in summary: July 1974 = possession case, adjourned, never finally\ndecided.\n\nSeptember 1974 = old 1962 possession order revived.\n\nOctober/November 1974 = threatened eviction stopped and warrant withdrawn.\nNot licence letters, quashed hearing, but in fact because of overwhelming\ncourt clerk, press and public support.\n\nAnother dimension of this, of which there are many, including BP Bailiffs\nbeing undercover soldiers and/or accompanied by soldiers, allegedly even\nSAS, is the abrupt demolition of our 800-year-old “county treasure” home.\n4am the morning after, almost simultaneously, CADW refused to spot-list it\nas Grade II, the council refused to issue a demolition stop order and our\nHigh Court injunction preventing demolition or removal of our property (all\nof our furniture from Cardiff Castle etc.) got overturned.\n\nThis surely should not have happened prior to the appeal procedure of those\ndecisions concluding, to say the least. More indications of Government\ninvolvement/military operation. Which I do not just say as a military\nwarfare professional, but because other evidence supports it (including\nrecently declassified ITV coverage which may not even have aired). Along\nwith fraud and all the concealment, there are grounds to exercise the\nclause in the Limitation Act and reopen this case.\n\nI formally submit the accompanying CADW — Forensic Critique, Great House\nFarm (Ty Mawr), Llandough – Version 5.0.0 (August 2026).\n\nI also enclose a mock application to an AI-assisted mock Chancery Court I\nam working with. I have been using iterative research and legal-analysis\nprocesses to test and refine the arguments arising from the historical\nevidence, pending any formal legal proceedings on behalf of my family. I\ninclude it not as a substitute for legal proceedings, but to give your\nOffice the wider context in which I am examining what happened. And an\nillustration of a final single legal case which articulates my family’s\ngrievances. If they were not all so terrified to speak out, still now, even\nafter 38 years.\n\nThe CADW Forensic Critique is deliberately evidence-led. It distinguishes\nbetween established facts, reasonable inferences and matters which cannot\npresently be established because the underlying records no longer appear to\nbe available.\n\nIts central concern is straightforward:\n\nCadw cannot presently produce sufficient surviving evidence to explain how\nits December 1988 decision was reached, nor can it presently explain what\nhappened to the records documenting that decision.\n\nAlbeit we are still corresponding to establish the facts. In any case what\nhas been established thus far is particularly troubling given what happened\nimmediately afterwards.\n\nIn 1988, Cadw publicly stated that it was considering an appeal to the\nSecretary of State for Wales to protect the building. The South Wales Echo\nreported on 3 December 1988 that an inspector would visit “this weekend”\nand liaise with RCAHMW.\n\nThe building was then demolished overnight on 5/6 December 1988, within\nhours of the refusal and the simultaneous dismissal of a High Court\ninjunction.\n\nI am therefore asking your Office to help, at the very least in this\ncorrespondence with CADW, to establish as precisely as possible what\nhappened.\n\n1. Contact between Cadw and the Welsh Office / Secretary of State\n\nPlease confirm, deny or clarify each of the following:\n\nWhether any communication or outreach took place between Cadw, or its\npredecessor functions, and the Office of the Secretary of State for Wales /\nWelsh Office concerning Great House Farm during the period July–December\n1988.\n\nWhether any recommendation, briefing, submission, notification or formal\nappeal concerning the protection or listing of Great House Farm was\nsubmitted to the Secretary of State.\n\nWhether my family, as the occupiers and asserted owners of the property,\nwas ever consulted, contacted or notified by Cadw or the Welsh Office\nbefore the refusal decision of 5 December 1988.\n\nIf such communications occurred, I ask that the surviving records be\nidentified and disclosed.\n\nIf they did not occur, I ask that this be stated clearly.\n\n2. What happened to the 1988 assessment records?\n\nCadw’s responses, including FOI ATISN 27021, the response from Amy Longford\ndated 10 July 2026, the subsequent internal review, and the response from\nDr Andy Wigley dated 27 August 2026, indicate that:\n\nonly the two July 1988 photographs have been located;\n\nno assessment file, inspector’s notes, decision record or internal\ncorrespondence has been located;\n\nno destruction record, transfer list, accession record or archive schedule\nhas been located; and\n\nCadw has stated that unsuccessful listing assessments were historically\nretained for approximately three years before transfer or destruction under\nthe Public Records Act 1958.\n\nThis raises an obvious question which I hope your Office will appreciate is\nimportant to my family:\n\nIf the records were destroyed, transferred or otherwise disposed of, where\nis the record showing that this happened and under whose authority?\n\nI therefore request the immediate production of any surviving destruction,\ndisposal, transfer or accession documentation relating to the Great House\nFarm 1988 assessment file, including certificates, dockets, lists, database\nentries, retention schedules, disposal authorities or other contemporaneous\nrecords held by the Welsh Office, its predecessors, Cadw, or any repository\nto which relevant records were transferred.\n\nWhere such a record exists, please provide its exact wording and identify,\ninsofar as recorded:\n\nthe file reference;\n\nthe disposal or transfer authority;\n\nthe date of the action;\n\nthe relevant retention period;\n\nand the officer or authority responsible for authorising it.\n\nIf any residual material remains in existence, I ask that it be preserved\nimmediately and not destroyed, transferred or otherwise disposed of while\nthese matters remain under examination.\n\nIf no destruction, disposal or transfer documentation exists, I ask that\nyour Office confirm that expressly.\n\n3. The unanswered questions surrounding the decision itself\n\nI also ask your Office to address, or to require Cadw to address, the\noutstanding questions identified in Part XII of the accompanying Forensic\nCritique.\n\nIn particular:\n\nWho was the decision-maker responsible for the refusal on 5 December 1988?\n\nWhat was the registered file reference, title and record series?\n\nWhat evidence was actually considered?\n\nWas the 1974 RCAHMW survey (ST 16817331) considered?\n\nWere SMR 2038/2038s and the relevant 1978–1980 GGAT reports considered?\n\nWhat was the basis, authorship and status of the July 1988 “YYY” coding?\n\nWhat communications took place with BP Properties or its agents, the local\nplanning authority, RCAHMW, GGAT or the High Court during the critical\nperiod?\n\nWas a Building Preservation Notice considered?\n\nWhat retention and disposal schedule applied to the assessment?\n\nWhat was the scheduled disposal/review date?\n\nWho authorised disposal, if disposal occurred?\n\nWhich repositories and catalogues have been searched, including The\nNational Archives and historic Welsh Office records?\n\nDo comparable unsuccessful listing assessments from 1988–1991 survive, and\nif so, how were they retained?\n\n\n\nThese are not questions I ask simply because I disagree with the historical\ndecision.\n\n\n\nI am trying to establish what evidence was before the decision-maker, what\nprocess was followed, and what happened to the official record afterwards.\n\nThat distinction matters.\n\n\n\n4. Independent verification\n\nI therefore ask your Office to confirm whether it has searched, or will now\nsearch, The National Archives catalogue and relevant historic Welsh Office\ntransfer documentation for records concerning Great House Farm.\n\nIf this has not already been done comprehensively, I ask that it be\nundertaken and that Cadw be asked to undertake any corresponding searches\nnecessary to establish whether the missing assessment material was ever\ntransferred elsewhere.\n\nI would also ask that any surviving records relating to the case be\npreserved while these enquiries are ongoing.\n\n5. Why I am asking\n\nI appreciate that this is a historic matter.\n\nBut for my family it is not simply history.\n\nThis was our home. It was the place into which I was born, and the\ndestruction of the building came at the end of a much longer dispute\nconcerning our family’s occupation, land and property rights.\n\nI have spent considerable time reconstructing what happened from surviving\ncourt records, land records, archaeological evidence, newspapers, archival\nmaterial, FOI responses and contemporary documentation. I am not asking\nyour Office to accept every conclusion I have drawn.\n\nI am asking for something more fundamental:\n\nwhere the Government and its agencies can still establish what happened, I\nask that they do so; where the evidence no longer exists, I ask that they\nsay so plainly; and where the record of its disappearance should exist, I\nask that it be identified.\n\nMy family has lived with the consequences of these events for decades. I\nbelieve that, at this stage, the least that can reasonably be expected is\nopenness, proper record-keeping and an honest examination of what happened.\n\nI therefore ask that this correspondence, together with the attached CADW —\nForensic Critique v5.0.0, be treated as a formal request for recorded\ninformation under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, as well as a request\nfor clarification of the records-management position concerning Cadw and\nthe historic Welsh Office functions now falling within the responsibility\nof your Office.\n\nI would be grateful for a substantive response addressing each of the\nmatters above individually.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\n\n\nSion Buckler (Ret’d Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n------------------------------\nThis e-mail and any attachments is intended only for the attention of the\naddressee(s).

It is not a repeat of FOI 2026-024 and it is not a comment on the internal review of that request.\n\nIn your letter of 25 August 2026 (FOI 2026-024) you stated:\n\n  \"For completeness, our searches identified records relating to other archaeological finds from Church Farm, Llandough and to other archaeological discoveries recorded at Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough. These records do not relate to, nor are they otherwise associated with, the discovery described in your request. We have therefore not considered them to fall within the scope of this request.\"\n\nI now request those records.\n\nPlease provide:\n\n1. A schedule of every object, archive file, accession, loan, enquiry or correspondence record that Amgueddfa Cymru holds which is indexed, provenanced or otherwise recorded as from Great House Farm / Ty Mawr / Llandough Farm, Llandough (Penarth / Vale of Glamorgan). For each entry: accession or archive number, object or file title, date of acquisition or creation, donor or excavator if recorded, and a one-line description.\n\n2. The same schedule for Church Farm, Llandough, but only so far as the records were retrieved in the 2026-024 search and can be identified without a new full trawl.\n\n3. Any accession, register entry, day-book, donations book or correspondence in the collections of Amgueddfa Cymru or of its predecessor Cardiff Museum / Welsh Museum of Natural History / National Museum of Wales, dated 1875-1915, recording ironwork, armour, a visor, a lance, a helmet, \"armour from Llandough\", or a find from Great House / Llandough Farm.\n\n   Published sources which state that such ironwork is in the National Museum, and which therefore make a search of predecessor registers reasonable, are:\n\n   * GGAT, Land at Great House Farm, Llandough: An Archaeological Assessment, August 1990 (planning file 89/01396/OUT and 92/00671/RES): \"it is likely that some medieval ironwork which is held by the National Museum of Wales was discovered under the rear wing c 1880 (RCAHMW 1988).\"\n\n   * Holbrook & Thomas, Medieval Archaeology 49 (2005), p. 70 n. 142: \"medieval ironwork was discovered under the rear wing of Great House Farm c. 1880. It is now in the collections of the National Museums & Galleries of Wales.\"\n\n   I note that the National Museum of Wales was not founded until 1907. If a find of c.1880 entered a public collection in Cardiff it would have done so through the earlier municipal museum. Please search those predecessor accession registers, not only the post-1907 NMW database.\n\n4. Any object record for Llandough ironwork that is not labelled \"visor\" or \"lance\" but is or was associated with the farmhouse floor or rear wing / dairy (the room identified on H. J. Thomas's 1974 RCAHMW plan).\n\nPlease treat this as a request for recorded information only.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler\n[email redacted]<[email redacted]>"},{"id":"gm-1a080232600c3e70","subject":"Internal Review: FOI 2026-020 - Great House Farm, Llandough | Cardiff Castle Furniture","name":"Internal Review: FOI 2026-020 - Great House Farm, Llandough | Cardiff Castle Furniture","date":"2026-09-08T08:29:36Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a080232600c3e70.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a080232600c3e70-internal-review-foi-2026-020-great-house-farm-llandough-cardiff-castle-furniture","scopeTopics":["museum"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["museum"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a080232600c3e70","direction":"received","from":"FOI Requests","institutions":[{"id":"museum","name":"Amgueddfa Cymru - Museum Wales"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a080232600c3e70.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Mr Buckler\n\nThank you for your request for an internal review of FOI 2026-020 concerning furniture, furnishings, antiques, fixtures, heirlooms and other movable property originating from Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough.\n\nThe reviewer has considered your original request, the responses provided by the Museum, the additional enquiries undertaken following your request for clarification on 3rd August 2026, and the concerns raised in your email requesting an internal review.\n\nWe are satisfied that the request was interpreted correctly and that reasonable and proportionate searches were undertaken to identify information falling within the scope of the request. Following the original response, the Museum undertook additional enquiries across relevant collections records and archived electronic records in order to satisfy itself that no information had been overlooked.\n\nWe are satisfied that the searches undertaken were appropriate to the nature and scope of the request and that no further searches are required in order to determine whether Amgueddfa Cymru holds information within scope.  The review therefore upholds the original decision that Amgueddfa Cymru does not hold recorded information concerning furniture, furnishings, antiques, fixtures, heirlooms or other movable property originating from Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough falling within categories 1 to 9 of your request.\n\nResponse to the points raised\n\n1. Information identified concerning Great House Farm\nDuring the additional enquiries, a small number of records referring generally to Great House Farm, Llandough were identified. These records do not relate to furniture, furnishings, antiques, fixtures, heirlooms or other movable property originating from Great House Farm and do not fall within categories 1 to 9 of your original request. The reviewer is therefore satisfied that they fall outside the scope of the request.\n\n2. Scope of the archived electronic search\n\nWe are satisfied that archived electronic records reasonably capable of containing information within scope were considered as part of the searches undertaken. Any data stored within a system or database pre-dating the existing Collections Management Systems, would have been migrated into the incumbent solution, and therefore included in the search.\n\n3. Correspondence and administrative records\nThe review considered whether correspondence or administrative records relating to the requested items were held.\n\nThe Museum's collections records include accession documentation and associated collection records relating to objects acquired by the Museum. Searches of those records did not identify any furniture, furnishings, antiques, fixtures, heirlooms or other movable property originating from Great House Farm.   As no such objects were identified as having been acquired by the Museum, no associated acquisition, provenance, ownership, loan, disposal or related correspondence concerning such objects was identified.\n\nThe review did not identify evidence that the Museum holds correspondence concerning the identification, ownership, recovery or location of Great House Farm furniture or household effects.\n\n4. Search terms\nWe are satisfied that appropriate search terms and variants were used across the relevant collections management systems, collection records and associated documentation. These included relevant location names, property names, family names and associated variants reasonably capable of identifying records within scope.\n\nThe review is satisfied that the search methodology was reasonable and proportionate in the circumstances.\n\n5. Transfer, disposal and destruction\nThe statement that the Museum is not aware of relevant records having been transferred or destroyed reflects the outcome of the searches undertaken and the knowledge of relevant collections staff.  The review did not identify any records showing that information within the scope of your request had been transferred to another institution or destroyed.\n\nFor clarity, the Museum's position is that no relevant records were identified.\n\n6. Records concerning external institutions\nWe note that your request sought records concerning communications with Cardiff Council, Cardiff Castle, the Bute Estate and other bodies regarding objects originating from Great House Farm. Searches were not limited solely to object catalogue records. Relevant collection documentation and associated records were also considered.\n\nNo records were identified concerning furniture, furnishings, antiques, fixtures, heirlooms, or other movable property originating from Great House Farm, including correspondence with the organisations referred to in your request.\n\n7. Advice and assistance\nThe Museum does not hold information identifying a specific department, collection, archive or record series within Cardiff Council or Cardiff Castle that is likely to contain the information you seek. The advice previously provided reflected our general view that those organisations would be more likely than Amgueddfa Cymru to hold records relating to the ownership, management or disposal of property associated with Great House Farm.\n\nConclusion\nHaving considered all of the information available, we are satisfied that Amgueddfa Cymru undertook reasonable and proportionate searches and that, on the balance of probabilities, the Museum does not hold recorded information falling within the scope of your request. The original decision is therefore upheld.\n\nIf you remain dissatisfied, you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.\n\n\n\nCofion cynnes,\n\n[A picture containing text, tableware, plate, dishware  Description automatically generated]\nFOI Team\n[cid:image002.png@01DD3F74.8F8D9600]\n[email redacted]<[email redacted]>\namgueddfa.cymru<applewebdata://288FE56C-5BFC-474C-ADB3-A1017EF25E69/amgueddfa.cymru> | museum.wales<applewebdata://288FE56C-5BFC-474C-ADB3-A1017EF25E69/museum.wales>\n\nRhif elusen | Charity number 525774\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]>\nSent: 14 August 2026 18:40\nTo: FOI Requests <[email redacted]>\nSubject: Re: FOI 2026-020 - Great House Farm, Llandough | Cardiff Castle Furniture\n\n\nThis email comes from outside the organisation.\n\nDo not click links or open attachments unless it is an email you expected to receive.\n\nFOI Team,\n\nThank you for your detailed response and for undertaking the additional enquiries.\n\nI appreciate the further information you have provided concerning the searches undertaken. However, I would like to request an internal review under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.\n\nMy concern is not simply that no objects have been identified. It is whether the searches undertaken have fully addressed the scope of my original request, particularly the documentary evidence concerning the provenance, acquisition, transfer, ownership, identification and dispersal of material originating from Great House Farm (Ty Mawr).\n\nI would be grateful if the internal review could consider the following points.\n\n1. Information identified concerning Great House Farm\n\nYour response states that the additional enquiries identified \"some information relating generally to Great House Farm and the surrounding area\".\n\nPlease could you identify what categories of information this refers to and, where it is not exempt, provide the relevant recorded information or explain where it can be accessed?\n\nThis appears potentially relevant to the original request even if it does not itself identify furniture or household objects.\n\n2. Scope of the archived electronic search\n\nYou state that the Information Technology team reviewed \"archived electronic systems and records retained by the Museum\".\n\nPlease could the review clarify:\n\n  *   which archived systems were searched;\n  *   the approximate date ranges covered;\n  *   whether historical email or correspondence archives were searched;\n  *   whether legacy collections-management databases were searched;\n  *   whether databases or systems preceding the current CMS were searched; and\n  *   whether any archived systems were unavailable, incomplete or incapable of being searched.\n\n3. Correspondence and administrative records\n\nMy original request expressly sought correspondence concerning the identification, recovery, ownership or location of objects, as well as correspondence with the Bute Estate, Cardiff Council, Cardiff Castle and other public authorities.\n\nYour response refers generally to \"associated collection documentation\" and \"administrative records\", but does not make clear whether historical correspondence files were specifically searched.\n\nPlease could the internal review establish whether searches were made of:\n\n  *   curator correspondence;\n  *   departmental correspondence files;\n  *   donor correspondence;\n  *   acquisition correspondence;\n  *   disposal correspondence;\n  *   loan correspondence;\n  *   provenance correspondence;\n  *   correspondence with Cardiff Council;\n  *   correspondence with Cardiff Castle;\n  *   correspondence with the Bute Estate;\n  *   correspondence with other museums or public authorities; and\n  *   any relevant institutional or external correspondence indexes.\n\n4. Search terms\n\nThank you for identifying many of the search terms used.\n\nPlease could the internal review confirm whether the search also included combinations and variants involving:\n\n  *   \"Bute Estate\"\n  *   \"Bute\"\n  *   \"Cardiff Castle\"\n  *   \"Cardiff Council\"\n  *   \"Great House Farm\"\n  *   \"Ty Mawr\"\n  *   \"Great House\"\n  *   \"Llandough\"\n  *   \"Buckler\"\n  *   \"Williams\"\n  *   \"Mary Williams\"\n  *   \"Mary Doreen Williams\"\n  *   \"household effects\"\n  *   \"contents\"\n  *   \"furniture\"\n  *   \"furnishings\"\n  *   \"heirlooms\"\n  *   \"fixtures\"\n  *   \"estate\"\n  *   \"dispersal\"\n  *   \"recovery\"\n  *   \"provenance\"\n  *   \"ownership\"\n  *   \"transfer\"\n  *   \"demolition\"\n\nI appreciate that historical records may not have been consistently indexed, which is why I would be grateful for confirmation of the methodology used.\n\n5. Transfer, disposal and destruction\n\nYour response states:\n\n\"We are also not aware of any relevant collection records relating to such material having been transferred to another institution or destroyed.\"\n\nPlease could the internal review clarify whether this conclusion is based upon:\n\na. a search of transfer/accession-out records;\n\nb. a review of retention and disposal records;\n\nc. enquiries with relevant collections staff;\n\nd. review of archival transfer documentation; or\n\ne. institutional knowledge rather than a documentary search.\n\nI am particularly interested in distinguishing between \"no record exists\" and \"no record was identified in the systems searched\".\n\n6. The original request concerning external institutions\n\nThe original request was deliberately framed broadly because the question concerns possible dispersal of the contents of a demolished historic property.\n\nIt expressly included records concerning Cardiff Council, Cardiff Castle, the Bute Estate, museums, Arts Council England, DCMS, RCEWA and other public authorities.\n\nI would therefore be grateful if the review could confirm whether records of communications or transactions involving those bodies were searched within Amgueddfa Cymru's records, rather than simply searching the Museum's object catalogue for Great House Farm objects.\n\n7. Advice and assistance\n\nYou have stated that Cardiff Council and Cardiff Castle \"would appear to be the organisations most likely to hold records relating to furniture, furnishings or other movable property associated with Great House Farm\".\n\nI appreciate that you cannot transfer another authority's records to me. However, could you please provide any further information available to the Museum as to which particular department, collection, archive or record series at Cardiff Council or Cardiff Castle is most likely to contain such material?\n\nThat would materially assist me in directing subsequent FOI and archival enquiries.\n\nI am grateful for the additional work already undertaken. I am requesting the internal review because I would like the record to be clear as to precisely what was searched, what information was identified, and what the negative result does and does not establish.\n\nI am not asking Amgueddfa Cymru to determine any allegation concerning the historical ownership of Great House Farm. The purpose of the review is simply to ensure that the documentary search corresponds fully with the scope of the original FOI request.\n\nPlease treat this email as my formal request for an internal review of FOI 2026-020.\n\nRegards,\n\n\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nWilliams / Buckler Family Estate\n\nOn Fri, 14 Aug 2026, 05:43 FOI Requests, <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Sion\n\nThank you for your email.\n\nFollowing receipt of your query, Amgueddfa Cymru undertook further enquiries to satisfy itself that no information had been overlooked when responding to your request.\n\nThese enquiries included a review of records held across the Museum's collections and a review of archived electronic systems and records by the Museum's Information Technology team. The review considered all collections management systems used by the Museum, including those most likely to contain information falling within the scope of your request.\n\nFor the History collections, searches were undertaken of the Collections Management System (CMS), accession files, donor indexes, location indexes and associated collection documentation. Searches were carried out using terms including \"Great House Farm\", \"Ty Mawr\", \"Llandough\", \"Buckler\" and \"Bute\". Additional consideration was given to acquisition records, provenance information and associated administrative records.\n\nFor the Art collections, searches were undertaken within the collections management system across description, comments, acquisition notes and place fields using the terms \"Ty Mawr\", \"Great House Farm\", \"Great House\", \"Williams\", \"Buckler\", \"Llandough\" and combinations of those terms. No additional paper archives relating to Great House Farm, Ty Mawr, Great House or Buckler were identified.\n\nThe Museum's Information Technology team also reviewed archived electronic systems and records retained by the Museum.\n\nThese enquiries identified some information relating generally to Great House Farm and the surrounding area. However, no information was identified concerning furniture, furnishings, antiques, fixtures, heirlooms or other movable property originating from Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough. We did not identify any inventories, catalogues, acquisition records, disposal records, loan records, provenance files, ownership records, photographs, correspondence or other records falling within categories 1 to 9 of your request.\n\nWe are also not aware of any relevant collection records relating to such material having been transferred to another institution or destroyed.\n\nAccordingly, having completed these additional enquiries, Amgueddfa Cymru remains satisfied that it does not hold recorded information within the scope of your request and our response under section 1(1)(a) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 remains unchanged.\nIn relation to your request for advice and assistance, Cardiff Council and Cardiff Castle would appear to be the organisations most likely to hold records relating to furniture, furnishings or other movable property associated with Great House Farm.\n\nIf you remain dissatisfied with this response, you may request an internal review within 40 working days of the date of this email.\n\n\nCofion cynnes,\n\n[A picture containing text, tableware, plate, dishware    Description automatically generated]\nFOI Team\n[cid:image002.png@01DD3F74.8F8D9600]\n[email redacted]<[email redacted]>\namgueddfa.cymru | museum.wales\n\nRhif elusen | Charity number 525774\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nSent: 03 August 2026 17:29\nTo: FOI Requests <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nSubject: Re: FOI 2026-020 - Great House Farm, Llandough | Cardiff Castle Furniture\n\n\nThis email comes from outside the organisation.\n\nDo not click links or open attachments unless it is an email you expected to receive.\n\nDear FOI Team,\n\nThank you for your response.\n\nI note your position that Amgueddfa Cymru does not hold recorded information within the scope of my request.\n\nHowever, I would be grateful if you could clarify the searches undertaken to reach that conclusion.\n\nIn particular, please confirm:\n\n  *   Which collections management systems, databases and \"associated records\" were searched.\n  *   Whether searches extended beyond accessioned objects to include acquisition files, provenance files, curator correspondence, donor files, temporary custody records, unaccessioned material, photographs and administrative records.\n  *   The search terms used (for example: \"Great House Farm\", \"Ty Mawr\", \"Llandough\", \"Williams\", \"Buckler\", \"Bute Estate\" and any other relevant variants).\n  *   Whether any potentially relevant records have been transferred to another institution or destroyed in accordance with a retention policy.\n\nMy original request was not limited to identifying surviving objects. It also sought records relating to their provenance, acquisition, transfer, ownership, photographs and correspondence. This reflects the fact that the contents of Great House Farm may have been dispersed following the property's demolition, meaning relevant records could exist even if no objects were ultimately accessioned by the Museum.\n\nIf, following those searches, Amgueddfa Cymru remains satisfied that no recorded information is held, I would be grateful for confirmation of that position.\n\nFinally, if you are aware of another public authority that is more likely to hold records falling within the scope of my request, I would appreciate your advice in accordance with your duty to provide advice and assistance.\n\nThank you for your assistance.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Mon, 3 Aug 2026, 10:39 FOI Requests, <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Sion\n\nThank you for your request for information received on 2nd July 2026, concerning furniture, furnishings, antiques, fixtures, heirlooms and other movable property originating from Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough.\n\nFollowing searches of the Museum's collections management systems and associated records, Amgueddfa Cymru has not identified any furniture, furnishings, antiques, fixtures, heirlooms or other movable property recorded as originating from Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough.\n\nAccordingly, Amgueddfa Cymru does not hold recorded information falling within the scope of items 1 to 9 of your request relating to such objects.\nFor clarity:\n\n  *   We have not identified any objects of the type described in your request as originating from Great House Farm.\n  *   We have not identified inventories, catalogues, acquisition records, disposal records, loan records, provenance files, ownership records, photographs, correspondence, reports, memoranda or related records concerning such objects within the scope of your request.\n  *   We have not identified any records relating to the identification, recovery, ownership or location of furniture or household effects from Great House Farm.\n\nWe note your references to archaeological material from land associated with Great House Farm.

Weather it be museums, archives or any other public body. I know museums have artifacts from our land in Llandough.\n\nSpecifically, I request copies of all:\n\n  1.  Inventories, catalogues and asset registers.\n  2.  Acquisition, disposal, loan and transfer records.\n  3.  Provenance files and ownership records.\n  4.  Photographs of items identified as originating from Great House Farm.\n  5.  Correspondence concerning the identification, recovery, ownership or location of such items.\n  6.  Internal reports, legal advice and memoranda relating to Great House Farm furniture or household effects.\n  7.  Correspondence mentioning the Buckler or Williams families in connection with these items.\n  8.  Records concerning any efforts by Cardiff Council or Cardiff Castle to trace, recover or secure items believed to have originated from Great House Farm.\n  9.  Correspondence with the Bute Estate, museums, the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, the Reviewing Committee on the Export of Works of Art and Objects of Cultural Interest (RCEWA), Arts Council England or any other public authority regarding objects from Great House Farm.\n\nFor context, I am allegeing that my family was unlawfully dispossessed of Great House Farm through fraud, and that furniture and other historic possessions belonging to the family were consequently dispersed. It's possible the bailiffs from BP were also SAS soldiers. We are still gathering actionable intelligence.\n\nI appreciate that the Freedom of Information Act does not require the authority to determine the merits of that allegation.

The key transaction I am trying to locate and\nverify is the *1877 transaction concerning Daniel Thomas and the Bute\nEstate*, which I understand from the surviving family evidence to have\nconcerned a defined portion of Great House Farm, including the farmhouse\nand surrounding land. I see an 1877 agreement between both parties, for\nthat year, but for a different property in Cardiff. I wondered if it was\nmis labelled and if you could validify its content, particularly any map\ndata. So as the integrity of the descriptor of the record is assured or\nrevisited.\n\nThe issue is whether the Bute Estate *conveyed, granted or otherwise dealt\nwith that defined parcel in favour of Daniel Thomas*, and, crucially, what\nthe instrument and its plan actually show about the boundaries and the\nnature of the interest created. In 1877.\n\nThis is important because the present documentary reconstruction I am\npreparing treats the 1877 instrument as the potential starting point for\nthe separate House Plot chain. The working case is that the instrument\ndealt with the farmhouse land separately from the eastern\nagricultural/quarrying parcel, with provisions connected to quarrying and\nthe subsequent passing of the house land to the occupying Williams family\nwhen quarrying ceased. That proposition is expressly being treated as a\nmatter requiring verification against the original instrument and plan,\nrather than as an established fact.\n\nI therefore wonder whether the catalogue search could be reconsidered\nspecifically on the following basis:\n\n*Bute Estate → Daniel Thomas → defined land at Llandough / Great House\nFarm, approximately 1876–1878*\n\nincluding instruments which may not themselves be catalogued under “Great\nHouse Farm” or “Daniel Thomas”, but which might appear under:\n\n   - the name of the property or former field name;\n   - the Marquess of Bute or his trustees as grantor;\n   - Daniel Thomas as builder, quarryman, lime-burner or occupier;\n   - a lease, conveyance, agreement, surrender or counterpart;\n   - quarrying or mineral rights;\n   - a plan accompanying an instrument;\n   - or a transaction recorded in a Bute Estate rental, ledger or estate\n   correspondence rather than in the deed catalogue.\n\nI appreciate that your catalogue may simply contain no surviving record of\nthis transaction. If that is the position, that is useful information in\nitself. What I am particularly trying to establish is whether *the 1877\ntransaction has been positively searched for and not found*, as opposed to\nthere being no later catalogue entry linking Daniel or Alfred Thomas to the\nBute Estate.\nD696 and the later Western Ground Rents material\n\nThank you also for pointing me towards D696. Please do let me know which\nitem(s) within D696 contain the *book plans and rental books for Western\nGround Rents Ltd c.1938–1944*, particularly anything relating to Great\nHouse Farm, Llandough or the land occupied by John Williams.\n\nThis is potentially very relevant because the documentary issue I am\ninvestigating is whether the later WGR estate corresponded geographically\nwith the parcel dealt with by the Bute Estate in 1877, or instead with the\nseparate agricultural/quarrying parcel.\nBute Estate finding aid\n\nI would also be grateful if you could retain my enquiry against the Bute\nEstate material being transferred from Cardiff Library. In particular, I\nwould be interested in any items concerning:\n\n   - Llandough / Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr;\n   - Daniel Thomas;\n   - the 1870s Bute Estate conveyances or leases;\n   - estate plans showing parcel boundaries;\n   - quarrying or lime works;\n   - rentals distinguishing the farm from the farmhouse/cottages; and\n   - subsequent dealings with the relevant parcels.\n\n1910 Land Valuation map\n\nFinally, thank you for identifying DVAL/1/33. If Glamorgan Archives has any\ninformation enabling me to identify the corresponding *1910 valuation map\nheld by The National Archives*, I would be grateful for the relevant\nreference. I am trying to make a targeted request rather than simply asking\nThe National Archives to search broadly for a Llandough map.\n\nThank you again for your assistance. The clarification regarding what is\nand is not held at Glamorgan Archives is useful, and I appreciate your help\nin narrowing down the surviving documentary trail.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\n*Sion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)*\n*Royal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member*\n\n\nOn Mon, 7 Sept 2026, 13:46 Glamro / Swyddfa Cofnodion Morgannwg, <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> *Ref: 2026/3793*\n>\n>\n>\n> Dear Sion Buckler,\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your email of 22nd August, received into our enquiries\n> system 24th August.\n>\n>\n>\n> To answer your points in turn:\n>\n>\n>\n>    1.

DBDT/10/19 describes Daniel Thomas as ‘of the Town of Cardiff, Builder’.  There are no further identifying details for Daniel Thomas in the documents.  We can provide copies of the documents at a charge or they can be accessed for free in our public searchroom.  Please let us know if you would like a quote for digital copies.\n  2.  There are no additional deeds described on our catalogue between Daniel or Alfred Thomas and the Bute Estate.\n  3.  There are no additional records relating to quarrying in Llandough or around Ty Mawr / Great House Farm.\n  4.  If you have not already got a copy of Daniel Thomas’ will, you can apply for a copy of probate from the Probate Office: Search probate records for documents and wills (England and Wales) - GOV.UK<https://www.gov.uk/search-will-probate>.\n  5.  We think you have probably already covered all the material we have on this matter but…\n1-3)  We do not hold the majority of the Bute Estate records.  I attach a finding aid to the Bute Estate records that are currently held by Cardiff Library. These records are soon to be transferred to us so please let us know if there is anything on this list that you are interested in.  Other records of the Bute Estate can be found at the National Library of Wales.\n4)  We are not sure if you have consulted D696 which includes a book plans and rental books for land owned by Western Ground Rents Ltd c1938-1944.\n6. Have you looked at historic Ordnance Survey plans to show boundaries?  Some of these can be viewed online e.g. Map Finder - with Outlines - National Library of Scotland<https://maps.nls.uk/geo/find/#zoom=15.0&lat=51.44833&lon=-3.19885&layers=101&b=1&z=0&point=51.45192,-3.19801&i=135196558>.  Mary consulted the 1910 Land Valuation book for Llandough (DVAL/1/33) but we do not have the corresponding maps to go with this – you would need to contact the National Archives for a copy of this.\n\nWe hope that this information is of use to you.

The account further describes quarrying on the Thomas-held land and an agreement under which the freehold would eventually pass to the occupying family when quarrying ceased.\n\nI appreciate that this account requires verification against the original documentary record. I am therefore seeking to identify the relevant deeds, agreements, plans and subsequent title documents.\n\n1. Verification of specific DBDT catalogue entries\n\nPlease confirm the exact property description, parties and date of the following catalogue entries, and, if possible, provide a digital copy or scan of the opening parties clause and any attached or marginal plan:\n\n  *   DBDT10/19 – Lease (counterpart), described in the catalogue as concerning land and messuages in Bute Street, Cardiff, from trustees of the late Marquess of Bute to Mr Daniel Thomas, October 1850.\n  *   DBDT10/20 – Agreement for a building lease of premises in Bute Town, Cardiff, involving the same parties, June 1849.\n\nI understand from the catalogue descriptions that these items concern Cardiff rather than Llandough. My purpose is to establish whether the Daniel Thomas named in these instruments can be identified sufficiently to determine whether he is the same individual later connected with the Llandough lime works and land interests, or whether these are unrelated transactions involving another person of the same name.\n\nPlease also advise whether either document contains information identifying Daniel Thomas by residence, occupation, estate, trusteeship or other distinguishing details.\n\n2. Targeted search for a Bute–Daniel Thomas transaction at or near Llandough\n\nPlease search the catalogue descriptions and indexes available to Glamorgan Archives for any deed, conveyance, exchange, sale, transfer, lease, agreement, plan or related instrument involving:\n\n  *   Daniel Thomas;\n  *   Alfred Thomas;\n  *   the Marquess of Bute;\n  *   trustees of the Marquess of Bute;\n  *   the Bute Estate;\n\nand land at or near:\n\n  *   Llandough;\n  *   Great House Farm / Great House / Tŷ Mawr;\n  *   adjoining land or parcels that may subsequently have formed part of the farm.\n\nI am particularly interested in transactions dating from approximately 1876 to 1878, but would be grateful for references to earlier or later documents where they form part of the same chain of title.\n\nIn particular, I am seeking evidence capable of confirming or disproving whether any defined parcel of land was conveyed by the Bute Estate to Daniel Thomas.\n\n3. Quarrying, lime works and any conditional reversion or transfer\n\nPlease identify any relevant records concerning land at Llandough or Great House Farm that refer to:\n\n  *   quarrying;\n  *   quarries or quarry land;\n  *   lime works or lime kilns;\n  *   mineral rights;\n  *   removal of quarrying machinery;\n  *   reduction or cessation of rent as land was quarried;\n  *   termination of quarrying;\n  *   a future conveyance, reversion, surrender or transfer of a freehold interest when quarrying ceased.\n\nThe particular issue I am investigating is whether an agreement existed under which occupation or ownership of a defined parcel was intended to change when quarrying operations came to an end.\n\n4. Daniel Thomas, Alfred Thomas and the Llandough lime works\n\nPlease identify any documents linking Daniel Thomas, or his son Alfred Thomas (later Lord Pontypridd), with:\n\n  *   land at Llandough;\n  *   the Llandough lime works or lime kilns;\n  *   quarrying operations;\n  *   Great House Farm or adjoining agricultural land;\n  *   any freehold or leasehold interest in the area.\n\nI would be particularly interested in estate papers, correspondence, conveyances, wills, probate-related estate records, rentals, rent books, abstracts of title and plans that may trace what became of any Daniel Thomas interest after his death or thereafter.\n\n5. Subsequent title and occupation\n\nPlease identify any abstracts of title, estate maps, conveyances, correspondence, tenancy records or other material that may assist in establishing:\n\n  1.  what happened to any freehold interest held by Daniel Thomas or his estate;\n  2.  whether such an interest was ever conveyed, surrendered or transferred back to the Bute Estate or another party;\n  3.  whether the Bute Estate later reacquired any relevant parcel;\n  4.  whether later parties, including Mountjoy Ltd or Western Ground Rents Ltd, acquired title to land previously held by Daniel Thomas or his successors;\n  5.  the basis on which later tenancies described as covering the \"whole\" of Great House Farm were granted.\n\nI am also interested in any material linking these title questions with the occupation of the farm by the Williams family.\n\n6. Plans and parcel boundaries\n\nA separate line of research concerns the possibility that historic legal boundaries passed through or between different parts of the Great House Farm complex.\n\nAccordingly, please identify any:\n\n  *   estate maps;\n  *   conveyance plans;\n  *   tenancy plans;\n  *   quarry plans;\n  *   large-scale plans;\n  *   boundary plans;\n  *   valuation plans;\n\nthat show Great House Farm, the farmhouse, garden, stables, outbuildings or adjoining parcels.\n\nI am particularly interested in documents that could establish whether different parts of the historic building complex fell within different legal parcels.\n\nI appreciate that some of these requests may require staff research beyond a standard enquiry. My immediate priority is to obtain the relevant catalogue references and confirmation of what material exists. If more detailed searching or document retrieval is necessary, please let me know the applicable procedure, estimated cost and whether a formal paid research request would be required.\n\nIf relevant documents have been digitised, I would be grateful for details of the cost of obtaining copies. Otherwise, please advise whether they can be consulted in person and whether any restrictions or advance ordering requirements apply.\n\nThank you for your assistance. The documents identified through this enquiry may be important to reconstructing the historical chain of title and occupation of Great House Farm, Llandough from the nineteenth century onwards.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\n**********************************************************************\nThe Council welcomes correspondence in Welsh, English or bilingually.

Nevertheless, I have also attached a draft Chancery Court\n> application so that you can see the wider context of our grievance and\n> understand where CADW's involvement sits within it.\n>\n> I believe that context is important.\n>\n> For 38 years, my family has lived with the consequences of what happened\n> in 1988. We were portrayed publicly as little more than \"squatters being\n> evicted\", and that description has stayed with us and shamed us ever since.\n> The reality was considerably more complicated and, for my family,\n> profoundly distressing. It was, in fact, the first time we had been off our\n> land — land which we may even still own — since the 16th century, having\n> acquired the estate in 1667.\n>\n> It remains a theory, but it is possible that an alternate, untold story is\n> yet to be told, including that Llandough was once called Cedwyn Estate, and\n> that the 1,000-year freehold for it, with 640 years left on that agreement,\n> passed from Sir Herbert of Swansea to the Vaughan family and onto us, not\n> Bute.\n>\n> Given that we occupied the manorial house for so many centuries, it is\n> entirely plausible that we are the rightful holders of the freehold — and\n> that the heirlooms Bute purchased from the last heirs of the Vaughan family\n> did not actually include Cedwyn Estate. He nevertheless acted as though he\n> did, dividing the land parcels. Developing his houses and the town etc. And\n> I note things like the 1824 David Stewart survey in which our estate, being\n> reduced to a home on the parcel it occupied, was recorded as Great House\n> alias \"Cedfin\". Elsewhere Ked fin.

Correspondence received in Welsh will be answered in Welsh and corresponding in Welsh will not involve any delay.\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]>\nSent: 29 August 2026 18:15\nTo: Wigley, Andy (LCC - Cadw) <[email redacted]>\nCc: Cadw Planning <[email redacted]>; Longford, Amy (LCC - Cadw) <[email redacted]>; Weatherhead, Michael (LCC - Cadw) <[email redacted]>\nSubject: Great House Farm, Llandough\n\n\nSirs/Ma'am,\n\nFurther to my last two emails this week, and in response to yours, which is appreciated, please see the attached documents.\n\nMy latest version file on yourselves; CADW. And a mock application to a mock AI chancery court; a simulation I'm running in a karpathy autoresearch loop as a long horizon agent to refine the arguments my family made for the last century before being silenced. And spending the last 4 decades like hostage prisoners of war.\n\nWhile CADW may ultimately have played what could appear to be a relatively small part in the wider circumstances surrounding my family's dispossession of our home and land, I want that part to be fully understood, accurately recorded and, where necessary, properly scrutinised. Any possible institutional failure you might have identified isn't the ice berge here, I assure you. Not even the tip of it.\n\nI am not approaching this simply to apportion blame, although I am both horrified and furious reading into all this. I am trying to establish, as honestly and completely as I can, what happened, what was known at the time, what was recorded, what decisions were made, and whether proper care was exercised when it mattered.\n\nThank you in advance for your cooperation. This may ultimately develop into a formal complaint, and if it does, CADW will of course be given a fair opportunity to respond to the concerns we identify. At this stage, however, I am trying to understand the full scope of what happened before reaching those conclusions.\n\nAs my research continues, I may also be in a position to provide CADW with records concerning your own involvement which may not presently be readily apparent from your current records or understanding of the matter. I hope that, if that happens, they will be received in the same spirit in which I am providing them: to establish the historical truth.\n\nIn the much wider context of my family's grievances concerning BP and the local authorities, and the eventual destruction of what had been described as a \"county treasure\", CADW may prove to be only a small part of the overall story. Nevertheless, I have also attached a draft Chancery Court application so that you can see the wider context of our grievance and understand where CADW's involvement sits within it.\n\nI believe that context is important.\n\nFor 38 years, my family has lived with the consequences of what happened in 1988. We were portrayed publicly as little more than \"squatters being evicted\", and that description has stayed with us and shamed us ever since. The reality was considerably more complicated and, for my family, profoundly distressing. It was, in fact, the first time we had been off our land — land which we may even still own — since the 16th century, having acquired the estate in 1667.\n\nIt remains a theory, but it is possible that an alternate, untold story is yet to be told, including that Llandough was once called Cedwyn Estate, and that the 1,000-year freehold for it, with 640 years left on that agreement, passed from Sir Herbert of Swansea to the Vaughan family and onto us, not Bute.\n\nGiven that we occupied the manorial house for so many centuries, it is entirely plausible that we are the rightful holders of the freehold — and that the heirlooms Bute purchased from the last heirs of the Vaughan family did not actually include Cedwyn Estate. He nevertheless acted as though he did, dividing the land parcels. Developing his houses and the town etc. And I note things like the 1824 David Stewart survey in which our estate, being reduced to a home on the parcel it occupied, was recorded as Great House alias \"Cedfin\". Elsewhere Ked fin. And other variations.\n\nThe same method used in 1974 with BP's licence letters was also used in 1955 (rendering our owner/occupier status merely permissive), and this may have occurred on multiple other land parcels prior to this — potentially in clandestine collaborations with the British State, given that 33 acres were carved out for the limeworks in the WWI effort, and War Ag occupied the land adjacent to ours in WWII. The council also absorbed our \"playing fields\" and so forth: a sort of eminent domain without our family receiving proper reparations (except once, in 1878). Llandough may have been the last of Wales to be colonised.\n\nI can tell you as a soldier. In Nicosia the indigenous Greeks and many Turks too, would approach the green line with old records of their land holding the UN occupied, even 4 decades later, and the UN would have to surrender those lands back to the indigenous. I draw a lot of parallels between this, our case and Wales' dream of devolution/ decolonisation. This case also might show we've been in a land market bubble and so a land market crash is coming. Our case isn't isolated or unique.\n\nI was a child in that house. My mother was pregnant, and the three of us were still young children. The people who removed us by force — following BP and the UK Government (synonymous at the time) after awarding themselves victory in their courts, (Magistrates as oppose to Chancery or before the Bench as a matter of equity, as should have happened on the merits of this case) — caused my mother's shoulder to become dislocated when she attempted to serve them with a High Court injunction ordering the occupiers not to destroy our home or remove our belongings. Despite that injunction, the house was ultimately destroyed and our possessions removed, including all our furniture, which came from Cardiff Castle, £30,000 of goods, a stone Roman-villa-type pillar, and so forth.\n\nThe ITV coverage at the time showed some of what happened, including the injury to my mother, but not that she was pregnant and that three young children were inside. ITV, it seems, never aired that footage, and instead of responding to my FOI request, they quietly published it to a YouTube archive last year — apparently hoping that I, or my AI agents, or anyone else, would not notice this suppression. I also hold other ITV footage which they have not admitted to or disclosed, showing my younger baby sister held to watch the looting of our home.\n\nThe MP is hesitant to respond, the Llandough councillor will not respond, and the longstanding Llandough clerk retired after initially trying, and failing, to dismiss me. I am ashamed of my nation. I served in war too, and left my military career with honours; I am bona fide, having also completed 22 years in Oath in 2024, the last 2 under the employ of the Vale of Glamorgan Council in adult care. The Land Registry also tried everything to steer me away from identifying their mistake in allowing BP to register our land in their name, without our ownership claim being lodged, in 1983. The fact that my nan — who had already spent 40 years challenging her ownership claim by 1983 — died within the two weeks she would have had to challenge BP's registration of our land in their name, is another matter requiring investigation.\n\nMuch like my late father's sudden death at age 41, between BP's application and approval of housing development, his ECHR claim was rejected, and his appeal of the 1987 ruling was dismissed — on the grounds that BP's companies were treated as one and the same.

I am also considering the\ninstitution of a *private prosecution* in respect of any criminal offences\ndisclosed by the evidence.\n\nI specifically invite the CPS to consider, at this stage, whether this is a\ncase in which the Director of Public Prosecutions should exercise the power\nunder *section 6(2) of the Prosecution of Offences Act 1985 to take over\nthe conduct of a private prosecution*, should proceedings be instituted.\n\nThe principal concern is not simply the disputed ownership of land. The\nhistorical evidence appears to disclose a possible pattern in which the\nfamily's established occupation and proprietary position were progressively\ncharacterised as merely permissive.\n\nOf particular significance is the apparent treatment of the occupation in\nthe *1955 proceedings*, followed by the more explicit attempt in *1974* to\nestablish a rent-free licence arrangement concerning the property. I am\ninvestigating whether these were independent legal positions or whether\nthey formed part of a longer and coordinated course of conduct intended to\ncreate or manufacture a documentary/legal basis for treating an established\nproprietary occupation as permissive, thereby facilitating the acquisition\nor retention of the land.\n\nThe subsequent involvement of *BP Properties Ltd and BP Pension Trust*, the\nregistration of title WA231076 in 1982, and the litigation culminating in\nthe 1987 Court of Appeal proceedings are material to that investigation.\n\nI do not ask the CPS to determine the civil title dispute. The question I\nask is whether the documentary sequence discloses evidence capable of\nsupporting criminal offences involving fraud, conspiracy, false or\nmisleading representations, concealment of material information, or other\noffences arising from the alleged acquisition or preservation of property\nrights.\n\nI am particularly concerned that conduct occurring at different stages may\nonly become intelligible when examined as a single historical sequence\nrather than as isolated civil proceedings. The apparent attempt to\nestablish permissive occupation in 1955, the subsequent licence proposal in\n1974, the later registration of title, and the representations made in the\nlitigation may therefore warrant consideration together.\n\nI recognise that the CPS will need sufficient evidence to apply the Full\nCode Test and that the existence of a civil dispute does not itself\nestablish criminal conduct. I am not presenting the allegation as proved. I\nam presenting the documentary evidence and asking the prosecuting authority\nto determine whether it warrants criminal investigation and/or prosecution.\n\nThe CPS's published guidance confirms that a private prosecutor may ask the\nCPS to take over a private prosecution and that, when specifically\nrequested to intervene, the CPS must make a decision whether or not to take\nit over. The guidance further recognises that the CPS may take over and\ncontinue a private prosecution where the Full Code Test is satisfied and\nthere is a particular need for the CPS to conduct the prosecution,\nincluding in serious or complex cases or cases involving substantial\ndisclosure issues.\n\nI therefore expressly request that the CPS:\n\n   1.\n\n   *Consider whether it would be prepared to take over a private\n   prosecution under section 6(2) of the Prosecution of Offences Act 1985 if\n   proceedings are instituted;*\n   2.\n\n   *Confirm whether the matter should instead be referred to an\n   investigative authority for investigation before the CPS considers taking\n   over proceedings;*\n   3.\n\n   *Identify the appropriate CPS division or office to which the evidence\n   should be submitted; and*\n   4.\n\n   *If the CPS is not prepared to consider taking over such proceedings,\n   expressly confirm that position and the reason for it.*\n\nI am able to provide an indexed evidential bundle containing the relevant\n1955 and 1974 material, historical conveyances and plans, Land Registry\ndocumentation concerning WA231076, relevant court records and a chronology\nidentifying the specific documentary inconsistencies and matters which I\nconsider require investigation.\n\nI would prefer the CPS to have the opportunity to consider the matter at\nthis stage rather than for a private prosecution to be commenced without\nfirst giving the public prosecuting authority an opportunity to determine\nwhether it considers the case sufficiently serious, complex or otherwise\nappropriate for public prosecution.\n\nPlease therefore treat this correspondence as a *formal request for\nconsideration of CPS involvement and potential exercise of the DPP's\nsection 6(2) power*, and confirm the appropriate procedure for submitting\nthe evidence for that purpose.\n\nThere's 133 houses approved for development on land that I believe to be\nconcealed sacred even holy ancient welsh woodland. And my land as\nsurviving, unestiguished claim and heir and successor of that claim has\nbeen a position our family have maintain unto our suspicious and\nconveniently timed deaths (my father while planning was approved for 20\nhouses, my nan before him in the 2 weeks she will have had to challenge BP\nregistering and merging our land as theirs at the land registry in 1983).\nThe current possessor holds defective title, in my humble estimation. And I\nhold interest in the land, which is being ignored along with my concerns,\nby local authories who have vested interest in the development of the\nhouses. The councillor for Llandough and MP both will not reply. The\ncouncil clerk retired. This is being dragged into the shadows and I suspect\nclandestine warfare, silence and violence. Whereas I am trying to keep the\nmatter open, transparent and in the public eye as it is a matter of public\ninterest being a site of historic and archeological signficants I.e.\nmonestry, roman villa, county treasure home, medieval burials etc.\n\nMy investigation is ongoing. But I do see a  multi generational racket was\nused for a land grab. And I am a military warfare professional, not just\nthe son of William Buckler.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a069003af48d247","subject":"Re: Welsh Water - Mail reference: 92994223/01","name":"Re: Welsh Water - Mail reference: 92994223/01","date":"2026-09-03T20:40:17Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a069003af48d247.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a067c8479753b0e-welsh-water-mail-reference-92994223-01","scopeTopics":["dwrcymru"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["dwrcymru"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a067c8479753b0e","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"dwrcymru","name":"Dwr Cymru Welsh Water"}],"refs":["92994223/01"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a069003af48d247.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Daniel,\n\nFurther to your email, please use the following forwarding address for the\n£20.00 Guaranteed Standards Scheme payment:\n\n[address redacted]\nDinas Powys\nVale of Glamorgan\n[postcode redacted]\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Thu, 3 Sept 2026, 11:59 CustomerCareTeam,  \nwrote:\n\n> Mail reference: 92994223/01\n>\n>\n>\n> Your email of: 13th August 2026\n>\n>\n>\n>\n>\n> Hello Sion,\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your email in which you request a further review of any\n> records relating to Great House Farm (Ty Mawr) and the disconnection which\n> you believe took place during the 1980s.\n>\n>\n>\n> I can see that our Data Subject Access Request (DSAR) team responded to\n> your previous email on 13 August 2026 and advised that we hold no records\n> relating either to yourself or the property in question.\n>\n>\n>\n> *My Review*\n>\n>\n>\n> I appreciate that your latest enquiry is intended to establish the\n> circumstances surrounding the water supply to Great House Farm (Ty Mawr) in\n> 1988, rather than seeking access to your personal data.\n>\n>\n>\n> As previously advised, we have been unable to locate any records relating\n> to the property following the searches undertaken.

I am asking whether there is any surviving documentary record\nconcerning the historical records themselves and their subsequent disposal\nor migration.\n\nCould you please clarify the following:\n\n   1. *Pre-2015 records*\n\nWere records relating to Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough held on any\nlegacy customer, property, works, engineering or billing system before the\n2015 migration?\n\n   2. *2015 migration*\n\nWere historical records excluded from migration because they had already\nreached their retention period, or were they excluded irrespective of their\nage?\n\nIn particular, was there a defined cut-off date or retention rule\ndetermining which historic property/account records were migrated?\n\n   3. *Disposal*\n\nIf historic records relating to the property were destroyed or deleted\nrather than migrated, is there any surviving disposal schedule, destruction\nlog, system-retirement record, data migration specification, audit record\nor other documentation showing what categories of historical records were\nremoved?\n\n   4. *Property records*\n\nYou state that you have been unable to identify surviving archived indexes,\nwork orders, engineer reports or other records relating to the property.\n\nCould you please confirm whether these categories of records were\nhistorically maintained separately from the customer billing/account\nsystem, and whether searches were made for legacy engineering or works\nrecords using the property name, rather than solely a modern customer\naccount number?\n\n   5. *1988 supply alteration/disconnection*\n\nI am particularly interested in whether the records show any historic\nsupply alteration, disconnection, meter removal, site visit, engineer\nattendance, works order or instruction concerning Great House Farm during\n1987–1989.\n\nIf no such records survive, please confirm whether this means:\n\na) no such record was ever created;\nb) such records were created but subsequently destroyed under the\napplicable retention policy; or\nc) it is impossible to determine which of those possibilities applies\nbecause the relevant historic records are no longer available.\n\n   6. *Historical property/account identifiers*\n\nIf your systems retain any historic property reference, account number,\nsupply point reference, meter reference, works reference or other\nidentifier associated with Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), I would be grateful\nif you could provide it. Even if the underlying records no longer survive,\nsuch an identifier could assist in tracing the historic record elsewhere.\n\n   7. *Records predating the current systems*\n\nFinally, could you please confirm whether Dŵr Cymru/Welsh Water has any\ncentral archive, historical records repository or retained legacy data from\nbefore the 2015 system migration, and whether the searches undertaken\nincluded those holdings?\n\nI appreciate your statement that you cannot confirm what happened in 1988\nwhere no records remain. I am not asking you to make such a determination\nwithout evidence.\n\nRather, I am trying to establish the documentary chain: whether a record\nexisted, where it was held, whether it survived the transition to the\ncurrent systems, and, if not, what happened to it.\n\nYour response has provided useful information in that respect, particularly\nthe confirmation that historical communications associated with\nproperty/customer accounts were not transferred during the 2015 migration.\n\nI would therefore be grateful if the above points could be answered so that\nI can accurately record the extent and limitations of the surviving Welsh\nWater records.\n\nWith regard to the £20 Guaranteed Standards Scheme payment, thank you. I am\nhappy to provide a forwarding address for that separately if required;\nacceptance of that payment should not be taken as resolving or withdrawing\nmy substantive request for clarification concerning the historical records.\n\nRegards,\n\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Thu, 3 Sept 2026, 11:59 CustomerCareTeam, <[email redacted]>\nwrote:\n\n> Mail reference: 92994223/01\n>\n>\n>\n> Your email of: 13th August 2026\n>\n>\n>\n>\n>\n> Hello Sion,\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your email in which you request a further review of any\n> records relating to Great House Farm (Ty Mawr) and the disconnection which\n> you believe took place during the 1980s.\n>\n>\n>\n> I can see that our Data Subject Access Request (DSAR) team responded to\n> your previous email on 13 August 2026 and advised that we hold no records\n> relating either to yourself or the property in question.\n>\n>\n>\n> *My Review*\n>\n>\n>\n> I appreciate that your latest enquiry is intended to establish the\n> circumstances surrounding the water supply to Great House Farm (Ty Mawr) in\n> 1988, rather than seeking access to your personal data.\n>\n>\n>\n> As previously advised, we have been unable to locate any records relating\n> to the property following the searches undertaken.

Our enquiries indicate that the property was demolished during the 1980s and any operational, customer or property records that may once have existed would fall well outside our retention periods and are no longer held.\n\nAs we do not hold any surviving records relating to the property, we are unable to confirm whether any request was made to disconnect the supply, who may have made such a request, whether supporting authority was provided, whether works were undertaken, or whether any associated correspondence or operational records were created.\n\nEqually, we have been unable to identify any surviving archived indexes, work orders, engineer reports or other records relating to the property. As no records have been located, we cannot provide further information regarding the circumstances of any destruction beyond confirming that records are retained in accordance with applicable retention schedules and legal requirements.\n\nWhilst I appreciate this may be disappointing; Welsh Water can only provide information that is currently held. We are unable to speculate on events or actions that may have occurred where no records remain available to verify them.\n\nIn response to your request for clarification regarding our retention periods, these vary depending on the type of data or information held. For example, telephone recordings are retained for 12 months, whereas account notes may be retained for significantly longer periods depending on the nature of the information.\n\nWe are generally required to retain customer correspondence for between six and seven years. During this period, correspondence may remain accessible through a customer's online account before it expires and is removed in line with the relevant retention schedule.\n\nThat said, following the migration to our current billing systems in 2015, historical call notes, emails, webforms and other communications that may previously have been associated with a customer or property account, were not transferred and are therefore no longer available through our current operating systems.\n\nOutcome\n\nI am sorry that we have been unable to provide the information you requested regarding the property and any actions that may have been taken in 1988. However, using the details provided, our DSAR team has been unable to locate any records relating to either the property or yourself.\n\nFor clarity, this has included searches across our available operating systems, including customer registration and billing records, as well as records relating to site visits and supply adjustments or alterations.\n\nLastly, I have identified that our response falls outside our 10-working day target for responding to written communications, and I would like to apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused.\n\nTo address this, a £20.00 Guaranteed Standards Scheme (GSS) payment can be paid to you. To allow this to be processed, please confirm a suitable forwarding address so that we can arrange for a cheque to be issued to you.\n\nIf you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to get in touch by replying to this email, or by calling Customer Care on [phone redacted], available Monday to Friday between 9:00am and 4:00pm. Alternatively, you can contact our Billing Department on [phone redacted], available Monday to Friday between 8:00am and 6:00pm, and Saturday between 9:00am and 1:00pm.\n\nKind regards\n\nDaniel\nCustomer Services\nWeb: www.dwrcymru.com<http://www.dwrcymru.com/>\n\n[cid:image001.png@01DD3BBD.1079FA30]\n\nWe take compliance with Data Protection seriously at Welsh Water.

And it still appears\nto be our land, despite BP being awarded possession in 1987. I discovered\nthat the final ruling (for possession, not determination of ownership) was\nbased on a quiet 1983 land registry by BP of our land, in their names,\nwithout disclosing my disabled widow pensioner’s ownership claim, who also\nconveniently died in the two weeks she would have had to challenge this\nregistration, not that she was even made aware. It also states our\npossession was adverse from 1955. But that was on a land parcel we rented\nand defaulted on, to the east of ours, not the parcel our home and garden\nand farm was on. Our parcel we occupied since 1667; we owned from 1928 when\nwe made our last payment on it. Originally an 1877 agreement which went\nmissing from our home in the 1940s, but even without that paper title,\nhaving not paid since 1928, our possession and ownership would have\nqualified as adverse by 1940.\n\nFurthermore, this 1983 land registry non-contest by my nan was after 55\nconsecutive years of her asserting ownership, after the 1877 agreement\nbetween Bute quarryman Daniel Thomas & Son enacted in 1928, when quarrying\ncompleted. An agreement her statements report was stolen from our home in\nthe mid-1940s. Providing both the name of the thief who confessed to\nstealing it and the estate agent who contracted him to do so.\n\nIt appears from my research so far that while a field we rented to the east\nof our land was repossessed, for which our possession might very well have\nbeen adverse from 1955, our land parcel was falsely and wrongfully treated\nas being part of the systematic repossession of the adjacent land parcel,\nwhich BP merged into theirs in 1983 from what I can gather.\n\nI believe this confusion stems from the definition of “whole farm” (as\ncited in the 1955 court order) which changed from two parcels of land in\nthe 1916 agricultural tenancy (conveyed to Western Ground Rents by the\nMarquess of Bute in 1938) to one parcel of land following the enactment of\nthe 1877 agreement in 1928 (after 51 years of our payments, reportedly £4 a\nyear). Furthermore, the modern tenancy/agricultural tenancy Western Ground\nRents placed my great-grandfather into in 1939 for the land parcel to the\neast of ours was, according to Leckwith archived records, only for the one\nparcel to the east of ours and not both parcels.\n\nIn addition to the definition of “whole farm” being misunderstood to still\ninclude our parcel after 1928, introducing ambiguity in the 1955 order, the\norder of possession for Western Ground Rents’ land parcel to the east of\nthe one we owned and occupied (since 1667) also says our land parcel (home\nand garden) was excluded from the order, but not because we owned it, but\nbecause of my grandmother’s “condition (having just had a leg amputated)\nand her resistance”. It does not mention her assertion of ownership. This\nmade our occupancy appear permissive and is what BP later tried in 1974\nwith their permissive occupancy licence letters. The basis of the pinnacle\nof this dispute: the landmark legal case BP v Buckler 1987.\n\nI say all this at least to defend my grandmother’s honour. After her\nconveniently timed death in 1983, during the 1987 hearing in which she was\nunable to defend herself, the judge took it upon himself to enter onto the\nrecord that my grandmother “conceived the notion” she owned the farm. He\nalso dismissed my father’s appeal, citing that both BP companies were all\nthe same. But in the ruling in BP’s favour prior, the judge said “had my\nnan challenged BP Pension Trust, it wouldn’t have counted as BP Properties,\nthe plaintiff, were a different company”. Which is not just a “heads they\nwin, tails we lose” procedural unfairness matter. But the legal precedent\nthat landmark legal case set by ruling my grandmother “accepted the\npermissive occupancy and offer from BP and their licence letters in 1974,\nbecause she didn’t expressly reject them” is firstly absurd by any sane,\nreasonable person’s standards. Secondly, that 1987 case excluded a\nnewspaper article from 1974 whereby my nan expressly rejects, even got\n1,000+ people to sign a petition against their housing development plan of\n13 houses (likely on their parcel to the east, not ours as they never owned\nours) and the article reports her stating her lawyer had assured her her\nownership claim was valid. And she asserts “it’s my home”.\n\nAnd further to all that, it is documented the court never ruled in 1974.\nNot adjudicating ownership in the first hearing, which was adjourned. And\nnot ruling for possession in the second hearing in 1974, which was quashed.\nFirstly because the clerk called them press when my disabled nan crawled to\ncourt begging for an audience with the judge after forced attempts to\nremove her. Including water being shut off for months, resulting in my\ninfant aunt having to go live with another family. And all our cows\ndrinking from the river and dying. The other factor is while the public and\npress and family all had a victory, my nan’s lawyers, BP and the courts\nquashed the case. But what they did was call to mention the offer to my\nnan, and quashing it instantly before she had opportunity to respond. We\nmay still have the tape recording.\n\nSo it is not a case of her not responding and so she accepted. It is a case\nthat the decades of rejection and petition and press reports were concealed\nand suppressed, along with these important facts, and the backdated licence\nletters BP produced afterwards in 1974 and clandestine 1971 alteration of\nour land parcel on the Ordnance Survey, and conveyance from BP Pension\nTrust to Properties in 1975, and land registration in 1983, unbeknown to us\nor anyone I suspect, was not meeting of the minds by a long shot. Yet was\nall that was heard or considered in 1987. The 1987 case was not judged on\nthe merits of the case as it should not even have been held in the court it\nwas in. The court it was decided in was the least applicable court of them\nall. A Chancery/Queen’s Bench i.e. equity court would have been the\nappropriate court.\n\nFurther to even all this, an attempt was made by Western Ground Rents to\nget my nan into a tenancy in 1949 too, for our plot. Which my nan expressly\nrejected in lieu of her assertion of ownership. Even with our paper title\nstolen prior to that attempt, having not paid since 1928 our possession,\neven if adverse, would have qualified us as owners through adverse\npossession by 1940 in any case.\n\nWGR generated a possession order for our land, based on the ambiguity they\nintroduced into the 1955 order, which was never enforced and is the\ninterest they conveyed to BP in 1969, when conveying the land they\npossessed east of ours. BP then altered the Ordnance Survey in 1971,\nshifting the title “Ty Mawr” from the land parcel to the east onto our land\nparcel. And appending “Farm” to the descriptor. Making our parcel better\nfit the defective title chain being forged, in lieu of my nan’s missing\ntitle chain. The 133 houses they are seeking to build on that land parcel,\nours (now Church View Close) was merged into, is defective. The title chain\ntraces back to and through us to what may be the 1,000 freehold issued by\nKnight Sir Herbert to the Vaughan family in the 1500s. It is even possible\nwe have been playing the role of virtual freeholder on our land parcel, or\neven tenant on the land east of ours. When all things considered, like the\nfact we occupied the manorial house since 1667, may even make it possible\nthat we were and still are the rightful freeholders of Llandough Town\n(formerly Cedwyn Estate), with 640 years left on that freehold. Because\nBute’s purchase of the last Vaughan heirs’ estate reportedly did not\ninclude our Ty Mawr.\n\nAnd Ty Mawr (alias Cefin (a possible attempt at Cedwyn) according to an\n1824 David Stewart survey) was not just our home or land parcel, but enough\nparcels to conclude the estate being half the town of Llandough. So this\nall may be a lot bigger and run a lot deeper than even what I am bringing\nto your attention. Our family also have bloodline connections to the\nVaughan, and so it is not just title, estate and deeds. I only focus on the\nparcel we own, for which possession was awarded to BP, to begin unravelling\ntruths long suppressed and concealed.\n\nIn 1974 an ownership hearing did occur to adjudicate the ownership dispute,\nbut seeing as my nan could not present her title as it was stolen, the\nhearing was adjourned. BP then tried to enforce the 1962 possession order.\n\nSo in summary: July 1974 = possession case, adjourned, never finally\ndecided.\n\nSeptember 1974 = old 1962 possession order revived.\n\nOctober/November 1974 = threatened eviction stopped and warrant withdrawn.\nNot licence letters, quashed hearing, but in fact because of overwhelming\ncourt clerk, press and public support.\n\nAnother dimension of this, of which there are many, including BP Bailiffs\nbeing undercover soldiers and/or accompanied by soldiers, allegedly even\nSAS, is the abrupt demolition of our 800-year-old “county treasure” home.\n4am the morning after, almost simultaneously, CADW refused to spot-list it\nas Grade II, the council refused to issue a demolition stop order and our\nHigh Court injunction preventing demolition or removal of our property (all\nof our furniture from Cardiff Castle etc.) got overturned.\n\nThis surely should not have happened prior to the appeal procedure of those\ndecisions concluding, to say the least. More indications of Government\ninvolvement/military operation. Which I do not just say as a military\nwarfare professional, but because other evidence supports it (including\nrecently declassified ITV coverage which may not even have aired). Along\nwith fraud and all the concealment, there are grounds to exercise the\nclause in the Limitation Act and reopen this case.\n\nI formally submit the accompanying CADW — Forensic Critique, Great House\nFarm (Ty Mawr), Llandough – Version 5.0.0 (August 2026).\n\nI also enclose a mock application to an AI-assisted mock Chancery Court I\nam working with. I have been using iterative research and legal-analysis\nprocesses to test and refine the arguments arising from the historical\nevidence, pending any formal legal proceedings on behalf of my family. I\ninclude it not as a substitute for legal proceedings, but to give your\nOffice the wider context in which I am examining what happened. And an\nillustration of a final single legal case which articulates my family’s\ngrievances. If they were not all so terrified to speak out, still now, even\nafter 38 years.\n\nThe CADW Forensic Critique is deliberately evidence-led. It distinguishes\nbetween established facts, reasonable inferences and matters which cannot\npresently be established because the underlying records no longer appear to\nbe available.\n\nIts central concern is straightforward:\n\nCadw cannot presently produce sufficient surviving evidence to explain how\nits December 1988 decision was reached, nor can it presently explain what\nhappened to the records documenting that decision.\n\nAlbeit we are still corresponding to establish the facts. In any case what\nhas been established thus far is particularly troubling given what happened\nimmediately afterwards.\n\nIn 1988, Cadw publicly stated that it was considering an appeal to the\nSecretary of State for Wales to protect the building. The South Wales Echo\nreported on 3 December 1988 that an inspector would visit “this weekend”\nand liaise with RCAHMW.\n\nThe building was then demolished overnight on 5/6 December 1988, within\nhours of the refusal and the simultaneous dismissal of a High Court\ninjunction.\n\nI am therefore asking your Office to help, at the very least in this\ncorrespondence with CADW, to establish as precisely as possible what\nhappened.\n\n1. Contact between Cadw and the Welsh Office / Secretary of State\n\nPlease confirm, deny or clarify each of the following:\n\nWhether any communication or outreach took place between Cadw, or its\npredecessor functions, and the Office of the Secretary of State for Wales /\nWelsh Office concerning Great House Farm during the period July–December\n1988.\n\nWhether any recommendation, briefing, submission, notification or formal\nappeal concerning the protection or listing of Great House Farm was\nsubmitted to the Secretary of State.\n\nWhether my family, as the occupiers and asserted owners of the property,\nwas ever consulted, contacted or notified by Cadw or the Welsh Office\nbefore the refusal decision of 5 December 1988.\n\nIf such communications occurred, I ask that the surviving records be\nidentified and disclosed.\n\nIf they did not occur, I ask that this be stated clearly.\n\n2. What happened to the 1988 assessment records?\n\nCadw’s responses, including FOI ATISN 27021, the response from Amy Longford\ndated 10 July 2026, the subsequent internal review, and the response from\nDr Andy Wigley dated 27 August 2026, indicate that:\n\nonly the two July 1988 photographs have been located;\n\nno assessment file, inspector’s notes, decision record or internal\ncorrespondence has been located;\n\nno destruction record, transfer list, accession record or archive schedule\nhas been located; and\n\nCadw has stated that unsuccessful listing assessments were historically\nretained for approximately three years before transfer or destruction under\nthe Public Records Act 1958.\n\nThis raises an obvious question which I hope your Office will appreciate is\nimportant to my family:\n\nIf the records were destroyed, transferred or otherwise disposed of, where\nis the record showing that this happened and under whose authority?\n\nI therefore request the immediate production of any surviving destruction,\ndisposal, transfer or accession documentation relating to the Great House\nFarm 1988 assessment file, including certificates, dockets, lists, database\nentries, retention schedules, disposal authorities or other contemporaneous\nrecords held by the Welsh Office, its predecessors, Cadw, or any repository\nto which relevant records were transferred.\n\nWhere such a record exists, please provide its exact wording and identify,\ninsofar as recorded:\n\nthe file reference;\n\nthe disposal or transfer authority;\n\nthe date of the action;\n\nthe relevant retention period;\n\nand the officer or authority responsible for authorising it.\n\nIf any residual material remains in existence, I ask that it be preserved\nimmediately and not destroyed, transferred or otherwise disposed of while\nthese matters remain under examination.\n\nIf no destruction, disposal or transfer documentation exists, I ask that\nyour Office confirm that expressly.\n\n3. The unanswered questions surrounding the decision itself\n\nI also ask your Office to address, or to require Cadw to address, the\noutstanding questions identified in Part XII of the accompanying Forensic\nCritique.\n\nIn particular:\n\nWho was the decision-maker responsible for the refusal on 5 December 1988?\n\nWhat was the registered file reference, title and record series?\n\nWhat evidence was actually considered?\n\nWas the 1974 RCAHMW survey (ST 16817331) considered?\n\nWere SMR 2038/2038s and the relevant 1978–1980 GGAT reports considered?\n\nWhat was the basis, authorship and status of the July 1988 “YYY” coding?\n\nWhat communications took place with BP Properties or its agents, the local\nplanning authority, RCAHMW, GGAT or the High Court during the critical\nperiod?\n\nWas a Building Preservation Notice considered?\n\nWhat retention and disposal schedule applied to the assessment?\n\nWhat was the scheduled disposal/review date?\n\nWho authorised disposal, if disposal occurred?\n\nWhich repositories and catalogues have been searched, including The\nNational Archives and historic Welsh Office records?\n\nDo comparable unsuccessful listing assessments from 1988–1991 survive, and\nif so, how were they retained?\n\n\nThese are not questions I ask simply because I disagree with the historical\ndecision.\n\n\nI am trying to establish what evidence was before the decision-maker, what\nprocess was followed, and what happened to the official record afterwards.\n\nThat distinction matters.\n\n\n4. Independent verification\n\nI therefore ask your Office to confirm whether it has searched, or will now\nsearch, The National Archives catalogue and relevant historic Welsh Office\ntransfer documentation for records concerning Great House Farm.\n\nIf this has not already been done comprehensively, I ask that it be\nundertaken and that Cadw be asked to undertake any corresponding searches\nnecessary to establish whether the missing assessment material was ever\ntransferred elsewhere.\n\nI would also ask that any surviving records relating to the case be\npreserved while these enquiries are ongoing.\n\n5. Why I am asking\n\nI appreciate that this is a historic matter.\n\nBut for my family it is not simply history.\n\nThis was our home. It was the place into which I was born, and the\ndestruction of the building came at the end of a much longer dispute\nconcerning our family’s occupation, land and property rights.\n\nI have spent considerable time reconstructing what happened from surviving\ncourt records, land records, archaeological evidence, newspapers, archival\nmaterial, FOI responses and contemporary documentation. I am not asking\nyour Office to accept every conclusion I have drawn.\n\nI am asking for something more fundamental:\n\nwhere the Government and its agencies can still establish what happened, I\nask that they do so; where the evidence no longer exists, I ask that they\nsay so plainly; and where the record of its disappearance should exist, I\nask that it be identified.\n\nMy family has lived with the consequences of these events for decades.

Not even the tip of it. \nI am not approaching this simply to apportion blame, although I am both horrified and furious reading into all this. I am trying to establish, as honestly and completely as I can, what happened, what was known at the time, what was recorded, what decisions\n were made, and whether proper care was exercised when it mattered.\nThank you in advance for your cooperation. This may ultimately develop into a formal complaint, and if it does, CADW will of course be given a fair opportunity to respond to the concerns we identify. At this stage, however, I am trying to understand the\n full scope of what happened before reaching those conclusions.\nAs my research continues, I may also be in a position to provide CADW with records concerning your own involvement which may not presently be readily apparent from your current records or understanding of the matter. I hope that, if that happens, they will\n be received in the same spirit in which I am providing them: to establish the historical truth.\nIn the much wider context of my family's grievances concerning BP and the local authorities, and the eventual destruction of what had been described as a \"county treasure\", CADW may prove to be only a small part of the overall story. Nevertheless, I have\n also attached a draft Chancery Court application so that you can see the wider context of our grievance and understand where CADW's involvement sits within it.\nI believe that context is important.\nFor 38 years, my family has lived with the consequences of what happened in 1988. We were portrayed publicly as little more than \"squatters being evicted\", and that description has stayed with us and shamed us ever since. The reality was considerably more\n complicated and, for my family, profoundly distressing. It was, in fact, the first time we had been off our land — land which we may even still own — since the 16th century, having acquired the estate in 1667.\nIt remains a theory, but it is possible that an alternate, untold story is yet to be told, including that Llandough was once called Cedwyn Estate, and that the 1,000-year freehold for it, with 640 years left on that agreement, passed from Sir Herbert of\n Swansea to the Vaughan family and onto us, not Bute.\nGiven that we occupied the manorial house for so many centuries, it is entirely plausible that we are the rightful holders of the freehold — and that the heirlooms Bute purchased from the last heirs of the Vaughan family did not actually include Cedwyn Estate.\n He nevertheless acted as though he did, dividing the land parcels. Developing his houses and the town etc. And I note things like the 1824 David Stewart survey in which our estate, being reduced to a home on the parcel it occupied, was recorded as Great House\n alias \"Cedfin\". Elsewhere Ked fin. And other variations. \nThe same method used in 1974 with BP's licence letters was also used in 1955 (rendering our owner/occupier status merely permissive), and this may have occurred on multiple other land parcels prior to this — potentially in clandestine collaborations with\n the British State, given that 33 acres were carved out for the limeworks in the WWI effort, and War Ag occupied the land adjacent to ours in WWII. The council also absorbed our \"playing fields\" and so forth: a sort of eminent domain without our family receiving\n proper reparations (except once, in 1878). Llandough may have been the last of Wales to be colonised. \nI can tell you as a soldier. In Nicosia the indigenous Greeks and many Turks too, would approach the green line with old records of their land holding the UN occupied, even 4 decades later, and the UN would have to surrender those lands back to the indigenous.\n I draw a lot of parallels between this, our case and Wales' dream of devolution/ decolonisation. This case also might show we've been in a land market bubble and so a land market crash is coming. Our case isn't isolated or unique. \nI was a child in that house. My mother was pregnant, and the three of us were still young children. The people who removed us by force — following BP and the UK Government (synonymous at the time) after awarding themselves victory in their courts, (Magistrates\n as oppose to Chancery or before the Bench as a matter of equity, as should have happened on the merits of this case) — caused my mother's shoulder to become dislocated when she attempted to serve them with a High Court injunction ordering the occupiers not\n to destroy our home or remove our belongings. Despite that injunction, the house was ultimately destroyed and our possessions removed, including all our furniture, which came from Cardiff Castle, £30,000 of goods, a stone Roman-villa-type pillar, and so forth.\nThe ITV coverage at the time showed some of what happened, including the injury to my mother, but not that she was pregnant and that three young children were inside. ITV, it seems, never aired that footage, and instead of responding to my FOI request, they\n quietly published it to a YouTube archive last year — apparently hoping that I, or my AI agents, or anyone else, would not notice this suppression. I also hold other ITV footage which they have not admitted to or disclosed, showing my younger baby sister held\n to watch the looting of our home.\nThe MP is hesitant to respond, the Llandough councillor will not respond, and the longstanding Llandough clerk retired after initially trying, and failing, to dismiss me. I am ashamed of my nation. I served in war too, and left my military career with honours;\n I am bona fide, having also completed 22 years in Oath in 2024, the last 2 under the employ of the Vale of Glamorgan Council in adult care. The Land Registry also tried everything to steer me away from identifying their mistake in allowing BP to register our\n land in their name, without our ownership claim being lodged, in 1983. The fact that my nan — who had already spent 40 years challenging her ownership claim by 1983 — died within the two weeks she would have had to challenge BP's registration of our land in\n their name, is another matter requiring investigation. \nMuch like my late father's sudden death at age 41, between BP's application and approval of housing development, his ECHR claim was rejected, and his appeal of the 1987 ruling was dismissed — on the grounds that BP's companies were treated as one and the\n same. Yet in the ruling itself, BP's companies were considered separately, meaning our challenge to one would not have affected the other. Outrageous. The same judge also went out of his way to say my nan \"conceived the notion she owned\" and said the unajudicated\n ownership dispute, set aside to award BP possession of our land, was final. Very suspect and nobody raised questions or challenged except our family i.e. 'Buckler vs United Kingdom' at the ECHR in 1988/89. Who also ruled in lieu of BP rights over ours as the\n owners. In 1974 the ownership hearing was ajourned. Ownership to this day has never been properly adjudicated. \nFor us, this was not simply a \"squatters being evicted\" case, as was falsely reported in the news. It was the loss of our family home since 1667, and the forceful and prolonged seperation and severing of our connection to that land, which our family had\n maintained for generations and owned, and still appear to own in spite of who awarded themselves possession of it or occupy it — and perhaps not just the parcel we were on, but half the town of Llandough, by birthright. With 6 centuries left on that freehold\n from the Knight in 1500, to a military commander and leader like myself. The true title chain. All the while the occupiers operate from defective title. It's possible getting to me may prove more difficult than how my dad before me or nan before him were gotten\n to, as I am a military warfare professional of almost 3 decades now. \nIt is otherwise difficult to explain what all we went through does to a family, particularly when the public account of what happened does not reflect the reality experienced by those of us who were inside the house at the time. My younger sister had nightmares\n when I brought this up with her. It's subsequently cruel to see her having to visit archieves for a 4th time, to try to see again what we are there to see. \nI therefore hope that CADW will understand why I am asking you to approach this matter with some care and humanity, as well as with the proper historical and professional scrutiny that it deserves. The non response from the Llandough councillor, classification\n of the 133 house plans on the council planning portal, delay from MP responding, is also an outrage. And clear bias towards the houses being developed on our stolen occupied land, by the holders of the defective title. No wonder my surviving family, of mainly\n women, aren't speaking up or out. It just horrifies me how they have had to live like such hostages under such terrorists. After a literal act of terrorism against us. \nI was involved in the effort in Iraq to break two SAS soldiers out of an Iraq prison under police guard, days before their execution. Me and a lot of the squadrons of soldiers I have around me to this day. I see my family in a similar light there, under\n the tyranny of this. And I am not standing for it. I'm only 41, I'm in full mental and physical health. I may have a lot of years left in my life which I'm able to dedicate to this. \nI have also passed this matter to my Cardiff based BBC producer friend, who also confirmed they'll be looking into this too. And Gareth Wyn Jones and others will a platform. This is a matter of public and national interest. It should not be drawn into clandestine\n warfare, with silence and violence, albeit that is my domain. Because there's already been plenty of it by the looks of it. I want this to remain in the open. Emails, open letters, courts and Senedd public enquiry etc. \nApplication of Property Law, did in this case, result in an inhumane outcome in my estimation. It may need to be petitioned to be rectified. \nI am not asking CADW to accept my conclusions simply because I have reached them. I am asking you to look at the evidence, to consider what your own records show, and to be willing to acknowledge anything that may have been overlooked, misunderstood, or\n inadequately dealt with at the time.\nIf mistakes were made, I would much rather see them acknowledged and properly understood than defended simply because they are now part of an institutional record.\nI trust you will now appreciate the importance, significance and magnitude of this matter for my family. I will continue to provide the material I uncover, and I sincerely hope that CADW will continue to give it the proper care and attention it deserves.\nRegards,\n\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber/Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-1a04e84719804232","subject":"Great House Farm, Llandough","name":"Great House Farm, Llandough","date":"2026-08-29T17:14:47Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a04e84719804232.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a04e2b752f50b6f-great-house-farm-llandough","scopeTopics":["cadw"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["cadw"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a04e2b752f50b6f","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"cadw","name":"Welsh Government / Cadw"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a04e84719804232.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Sirs/Ma'am,\n\nFurther to my last two emails this week, and in response to yours, which is\nappreciated, please see the attached documents.\n\nMy latest version file on yourselves; CADW.

They have been frightened into silence,\nwhile the institutions responsible for safeguarding justice, heritage and\npublic accountability appear, time and again, to have preferred discretion,\nobfuscation and exquisitely worded emails to the rather unfashionable\nconcept of actually answering the questions.\n\nI have now spent considerable time reconstructing what happened. The deeper\nI dig, the more the story appears to unravel.\n\nWe were not merely separated from a house. We were separated from ancestral\nland, family history and heritage. And now the woodland on that land is\nbeing cleared for a development of 133 homes.\n\nOne might reasonably ask: *whose history is being developed over, and whose\nhistory is being erased?*\n\nWhatever one's political position, the fact remains that possession being\nawarded through historical court proceedings does not magically make every\nunderlying question of title, evidence, procedure or institutional conduct\ndisappear. A court order is not an archaeological dig, a title\ninvestigation, or a certificate of immaculate institutional behaviour.\n\nI attach a summary of my grievances concerning CADW, particularly its\nhistoric involvement in this matter. I also attach a mock court application\nwhich I have been developing alongside AI-assisted legal research, not as a\nsubstitute for legal advice, but as a means of stress-testing the evidence\nand identifying the questions that require proper legal determination.\n\nI hope you will read them carefully.\nThis is considerably larger than one parcel of land\n\nThe parcel my family occupied — Church View Close — may ultimately prove to\nbe only one piece of a much larger story.\n\nThe same apparent pattern of irregularity that I am investigating in\nrelation to our parcel appears potentially relevant to:\n\n   - the parcel we leased immediately to the east, now proposed for the\n   133-home development;\n   - the playing fields subsequently acquired by the council;\n   - the 33 acres associated with the limeworks; and\n   - potentially the underlying question of whether the Marquess of Bute\n   possessed the freehold interest that has subsequently been assumed.\n\nThat last question is obviously not something I intend to settle by\nrhetorical flourish. It is precisely the sort of question that should be\nsettled by *documents, title records and evidence*.\n\nOne relevant public-record reference is here:\n\nhttps://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/2020_01590_hyb\n<https://reference-url-citation.invalid/0>\n\nThat is the point of my investigation.\n\nI am not asking anybody to accept my conclusions simply because I have\nreached them.\n\n*I am asking institutions to produce the evidence.*\nWhat happened to my family cannot simply be filed away\n\nWhat happened to my family and our home in the 1980s was, in its human\nconsequences, devastating. From my perspective, it amounted to an assault\non our family itself. And decades of it. At least mid 40's by Western\nGround Rents and onwards.\n\nFor decades there has been no meaningful after-support, no meaningful\nattempt at reconciliation, no reparative process and, above all, no\nsatisfactory account of what actually happened.\n\nInstead, the historical record appears fragmented, inaccessible and in\nplaces remarkably difficult to obtain.\n\nCADW is only one of numerous agencies about which my representatives are\nnow compiling material.\n\nThe emerging picture includes questions concerning procedural fairness,\ncourt proceedings, evidential failures, institutional decision-making,\nheritage protection and the apparent absence of effective oversight.\n\nThe more documents I obtain, the more questions arise.\n\nAnd I am increasingly uncomfortable with the proposition that *the\ndescendants of the people affected should have to conduct the investigation\nthemselves simply to discover what the institutions already ought to know.*\n\nIt is particularly distressing that I am having to investigate matters\nsurrounding my own father's and grandmother's lives and deaths in this way.\nI am asking for accountability, not theatre\n\nI appreciate that public bodies have procedures.\n\nI appreciate that officials have workloads.\n\nI appreciate that nobody likes receiving an inconvenient historical file\nwith several decades' worth of questions attached to it.\n\nBut carefully crafted sentences, selective disclosure, unexplained\nomissions and silence are not substitutes for accountability.\n\nI have repeatedly encountered what appears to be a culture of concealment,\nstealth and institutional defensiveness. Sometimes I receive an answer.\nSometimes I receive an answer to a question I did not ask. Sometimes I\nreceive an exquisitely polished paragraph which manages, with almost\nbreathtaking elegance, to avoid answering the actual question.\n\nIt is rather like asking for the keys to the filing cabinet and being\nhanded a brochure about the importance of filing cabinets.\n\nThat may be administratively impressive.\n\nIt is not an answer.\nI am asking you to intervene\n\nI do not expect either of you to determine the merits of my family's\nhistorical or legal claims yourselves.\n\nI am asking you to ensure that the matter receives *proper independent\nscrutiny*.\n\nSpecifically, I am asking you to assist in ensuring that:\n\n   1. relevant surviving records are identified and preserved;\n   2. agencies holding potentially material records provide substantive\n   answers rather than procedural evasions;\n   3. the historical involvement of CADW and other public bodies is\n   properly examined;\n   4. the underlying title, conveyancing and land-history evidence is\n   obtained wherever it survives;\n   5. any allegations of procedural unfairness or institutional failure are\n   referred to the appropriate independent bodies where necessary; and\n   6. my family is finally given a meaningful opportunity to establish,\n   through evidence, what actually happened.\n\nI have no interest in mythology.\n\nI want the documents.\n\nI want the chronology.\n\nI want the title deeds.\n\nI want the correspondence.\n\nI want the decisions.\n\nI want to know who knew what, when they knew it, what they did with that\ninformation, and why.\n\nIf the evidence ultimately disproves some of my suspicions, so be it.\n\n*But the evidence must first be allowed to speak.*\nAnd yes, I am angry\n\nI make no apology for that.\n\nI served this country. I spent years working in public service. I have\nworked for the Vale Council. I have served in the military and operated in\ncircumstances considerably more dangerous than sending an email to a public\nauthority.\n\nI am therefore perfectly capable of distinguishing between legitimate\nadministration and institutional stonewalling.\n\nI am no longer asking to be placated.\n\nI am asking for cooperation in recovering whatever evidence remains and\nallowing it to be examined properly.\n\nThe local community members who have contacted me have long memories. Many\nremain convinced that something about this episode was profoundly wrong. I\nintend to establish exactly what happened — not through rumour, grievance\nor inherited mythology, but through the surviving documentary record.\n\nAnd if the record contradicts me, I will accept that.\n\nBut if the record supports my family, then somebody is eventually going to\nhave to explain why it took a descendant *38 years, hundreds of enquiries\nand an obscene amount of archival digging* to uncover it.\n\nThat is not an acceptable model of public accountability.\nSo, gentlemen — enough of the situationship.\n\nWhatever happened to:\n\n*“We don't negotiate with terrorists”?*\n\nIs there peace?\n\n*No.*\n\nIs there peace?\n\n*No.*\n\nIs there peace?\n\n*No.*\n\nThere is, however, apparently an absolutely fabulous quantity of\nbureaucracy.\n\nWhat there has not yet been is accountability.\n\nI therefore ask you, gentlemen, to address this matter with the seriousness\nit deserves and to assist my family in obtaining the answers that have been\ndenied to us for far too long.\n\nI am not asking for special treatment.\n\nI am asking for the truth.\n\nAnd if the institutions involved have nothing to hide, then surely they\nshould have nothing to fear from producing the documents.\n\nRegards,\n\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)"},{"id":"gm-1a046b9c74c62b02","subject":"Re: CADW failures – Revised Report (10 August 2026)","name":"Re: CADW failures – Revised Report (10 August 2026)","date":"2026-08-28T04:56:14Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a046b9c74c62b02.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19fe7c63edda5834-cadw-failures-revised-report-10-august-2026","scopeTopics":["cadw"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["cadw"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19fe7c63edda5834","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"cadw","name":"Welsh Government / Cadw"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a046b9c74c62b02.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dr Wigley,\n\nOne further point has arisen from my continuing examination of the archival\nmaterial which I would like to place on the record before you respond to my\nprevious correspondence.\n\nI was recently directed to material held at Glamorgan Archives to\n*Glamorgan-Gwent\nArchaeological Trust (GGAT) planning papers concerning Great House Farm*.\nIf I recall by the longstanding Llandough Council Clerk, who retired the\nday he finally replied to my FOI's. The references state that the property\nhad previously been described as a *“county treasure”* and that this was\nrecorded in GGAT documentation in connection with the development process.\n\nI am presently tracing the underlying GGAT document so that I can establish\nits precise file reference, author and date before relying upon the wording\nas a primary citation. I therefore do *not* ask Cadw to accept the “county\ntreasure” description as an established fact at this stage.\n\nThe significance of the material is instead that it identifies another\npotentially important body of *professional archaeological documentation\nconcerning Great House Farm which appears to pre-date, or be\ncontemporaneous with, the demolition and development process*.\n\nThis is relevant to the question I raised in my previous email:\n\n*Can Cadw establish from its surviving records what pre-existing\narchaeological information concerning Great House Farm was actually\nconsidered in reaching the December 1988 conclusion that the site was “not\nof sufficient archaeological interest”?*\n\nI appreciate that Cadw may now be unable to answer that question. If so,\nthat inability should be distinguished from evidence that the information\nwas not available or was not considered.\n\nI also wish to make one clarification concerning the additional Llandough\nmaterial I mentioned previously.\n\nI am *not* seeking to bring the architectural or listing status of St\nDochdwy’s Church within the scope of my Great House Farm enquiry. The\nchurch is relevant only insofar as the archaeological evidence concerning\nthe wider Llandough site may assist in understanding the archaeological\ncontext in which Great House Farm was assessed.\n\nThe focus remains exclusively on *Great House Farm and the December 1988\nspot-listing decision concerning that building*.\n\nThe evidential position I am attempting to establish is therefore\nincreasingly precise:\n\n   1. What professional architectural and archaeological evidence\n   concerning Great House Farm existed before December 1988?\n   2. What of that evidence can Cadw establish was considered by the 1988\n   inspector or decision-maker?\n   3. Where Cadw cannot establish this because the assessment records no\n   longer survive, can that evidential limitation be expressly acknowledged?\n\nI will continue separately with Glamorgan Archives/Heneb to identify the\nunderlying GGAT “county treasure” reference and will provide the precise\ncitation once established.\n\nPlease treat this email as a further supplementary note to my existing\nsubmission rather than as a new FOI request.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nOn Thu, 27 Aug 2026, 15:52 Sion Buckler, <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Dr Wigley,\n>\n> Thank you for your response and for the further clarification concerning\n> the surviving Cadw records and the historic retention arrangements.\n>\n> Having considered your response alongside the evidence set out in my\n> report of 10 August, I think it is important to distinguish between two\n> quite separate propositions:\n>\n>    1. *Cadw has released all records concerning the 1988 assessment which\n>    it can now locate*; and\n>    2. *the surviving records establish the evidential and administrative\n>    basis upon which the December 1988 decision was made.*\n>\n> Your response appears to establish the first, but not the second.\n>\n> That distinction is important because the surviving evidence is\n> exceptionally limited: two photographs.

The July \"YYY\" coding\n>\n> There remains an important unresolved point concerning the July 1988\n> photographs.\n>\n> Cadw has previously explained that the \"YYY\" coding indicated that the\n> building did not meet the listing criteria.

Identity of the December decision-maker\n>\n> One further factual gap remains.\n>\n> Can Cadw establish the identity of:\n>\n>    - the inspector who undertook the December 1988 inspection; and\n>    - the person who made or authorised the decision communicated on 5\n>    December 1988 that Great House Farm was not of sufficient architectural\n>    merit and archaeological interest?\n>\n> If the relevant individual(s) cannot now be identified from surviving\n> records, please confirm that.\n>\n> This is not a request for personal information beyond what would\n> ordinarily form part of the historical administrative record.

What I am seeking from Cadw\n>\n> I am not asking Cadw to speculate about matters for which the documentary\n> evidence has disappeared.\n>\n> Indeed, the purpose of my report was deliberately to separate:\n>\n>\n>\n> *what is established; what is a reasonable inference; and what can no\n> longer be verified because the records do not survive.*\n>\n> Your latest response is helpful in establishing the third category.\n>\n> I would therefore be grateful if Cadw could confirm, insofar as its\n> records permit, the following concise position:\n>\n> *The surviving Cadw records relating to the December 1988 Great House Farm\n> assessment consist of two photographs. Cadw cannot now establish from\n> surviving records the detailed evidential or administrative basis of the\n> decision, including whether the 1974 H.J. Thomas RCAHMW survey or relevant\n> archaeological records were considered. Cadw has not located records\n> establishing the disposal or transfer of the missing assessment material,\n> and the approximately three-year retention period represents the best\n> present understanding of historic practice rather than documentary evidence\n> concerning the disposal of this particular file.*\n>\n> If that accurately reflects Cadw's position, I would regard that\n> clarification as extremely useful.\n> 8. Historical record and next steps\n>\n> I will separately approach Heneb concerning the Historic Environment\n> Record, as you have advised, and will pursue the question of any\n> appropriate heritage interpretation or marker with the relevant local\n> authority.\n>\n> I also appreciate your clarification that Cadw cannot require or\n> facilitate installation of a marker.\n>\n> My purpose in continuing this correspondence is therefore narrower than\n> seeking to reopen the FOI request. I am seeking to ensure that the\n> historical record does not inadvertently suggest that the absence of\n> surviving records means that the basis of the 1988 decision has been\n> established.\n>\n> On the evidence presently available, the more accurate position appears to\n> be that *the decision is documented, but its underlying evidential and\n> administrative reasoning is no longer recoverable from Cadw's surviving\n> records.*\n>\n> That is a significant historical finding in its own right.\n>\n> Thank you again for your assistance. I would be grateful for confirmation\n> of the above points, particularly the status of the 1974 survey, the July\n> \"YYY\" coding, the identity of the December decision-maker, and the\n> evidential basis (if any) for the disposal of the missing records.\n>\n> Yours sincerely,\n>\n> Sion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n>\n> On Thu, 27 Aug 2026, 13:21 , <[email redacted]> wrote:\n>\n>> Dear Mr Buckler\n>>\n>>\n>>\n>> Thank you for your latest correspondence dated 10th August in relation\n>> to your initial freedom of Information request (ATISN 27021) submitted in\n>> June 2026, which has been escalated to me for response.\n>>\n>>\n>>\n>> As stated by my colleagues, I can confirm that all records we hold have\n>> been released to you.

The absence of the underlying\nassessment papers means that a number of historically significant questions\ncannot now be answered from Cadw's records.\n\nI am therefore asking for clarification of the position rather than asking\nCadw to recreate records which no longer exist.\n1. What the surviving record establishes\n\nCould Cadw please confirm whether the following is an accurate description\nof the present evidential position:\n\n*Cadw's surviving records do not establish the evidential or administrative\nbasis of the December 1988 decision not to list Great House Farm. In\nparticular, the surviving records do not establish what evidence was\nconsidered by the inspector or decision-maker, whether the H.J. Thomas\nRCAHMW survey of 26 April 1974 was considered, whether the relevant\nSMR/GGAT archaeological material was considered, what inspection findings\nwere recorded in December 1988, or whether any internal recommendation or\nconsultation took place.*\n\nIf that is correct, I would be grateful if Cadw would confirm it expressly.\n\nI am not suggesting that the absence of records proves that those matters\ndid not occur. Equally, however, the absence of records means that Cadw\ncannot now establish that they did occur.\n\nThat is the central evidential limitation created by the loss of the 1988\nworking papers.\n2. The 1974 H.J. Thomas RCAHMW survey\n\nYour response says:\n\n\"we are unable to determine whether or not the 1974 survey was taken into\naccount at the time.\"\n\nThat is a particularly important clarification.\n\nThe RCAHMW survey was not a document subsequently created in response to\nthe dispute. It was a professional survey undertaken on 26 April 1974 and\nrecorded architectural features including the late-17th-century\nconstruction, Type A sub-medieval cross-passage plan, substantial timber\nframing and the barrel-vaulted cellar.\n\nI therefore ask Cadw to confirm simply:\n\n*Cadw cannot now establish from its surviving records whether the inspector\nor decision-maker responsible for the December 1988 assessment had\nconsidered the H.J. Thomas survey before concluding that Great House Farm\nwas \"not of sufficient architectural merit\".*\n\nIf that is Cadw's position, I will record it as such.\n3. The archaeological evidence\n\nThe same issue appears to arise in relation to the archaeological\nassessment.\n\nMy report identifies evidence predating December 1988 concerning Roman,\nIron Age and medieval activity at the site, including the recorded SMR\nmaterial and the 1978–80 archaeological investigations.\n\nI appreciate that the later 1994 excavation cannot simply be projected\nbackwards and treated as evidence which Cadw necessarily possessed in 1988.\n\nThe relevant question is narrower:\n\n*Can Cadw now establish, from any surviving record, what archaeological\ninformation was actually considered when the December 1988 conclusion was\nreached that the site was \"not of sufficient archaeological interest\"?*\n\nIf it cannot, please confirm that this cannot now be established.\n\nThis would avoid conflating the later archaeological discoveries with the\nseparate question of what information was available to Cadw in 1988.\n4. The July \"YYY\" coding\n\nThere remains an important unresolved point concerning the July 1988\nphotographs.\n\nCadw has previously explained that the \"YYY\" coding indicated that the\nbuilding did not meet the listing criteria. The photographs were taken on\n29 July 1988.\n\nThe contemporary press report of 3 December 1988, however, records Cadw as\nsaying that it was then \"considering\" asking the Secretary of State to\nprotect Great House Farm as a listed building and that an inspector would\nvisit that weekend.\n\nI appreciate that the records necessary to resolve this may no longer exist.\n\nNevertheless, could Cadw confirm whether it can establish:\n\n   - what \"YYY\" specifically represented within the July 1988 process;\n   - whether it was a final assessment or provisional coding;\n   - whether it was applied by the July inspector;\n   - whether the July assessment was subsequently reviewed in December; and\n   - whether the December inspector had access to the July photographs or\n   any associated assessment.\n\nIf none of these matters can now be established, I would be grateful for\nthat to be confirmed rather than inferred.\n5. Identity of the December decision-maker\n\nOne further factual gap remains.\n\nCan Cadw establish the identity of:\n\n   - the inspector who undertook the December 1988 inspection; and\n   - the person who made or authorised the decision communicated on 5\n   December 1988 that Great House Farm was not of sufficient architectural\n   merit and archaeological interest?\n\nIf the relevant individual(s) cannot now be identified from surviving\nrecords, please confirm that.\n\nThis is not a request for personal information beyond what would ordinarily\nform part of the historical administrative record. It is simply an attempt\nto establish whether the decision itself can still be attributed to an\nidentifiable office-holder.\n6. The retention explanation\n\nI also wish to clarify an important qualification in your latest response.\n\nYou state that current colleagues have advised that, based on their\nknowledge of the systems then in place, unsuccessful listing files were\n*\"likely\"* to have been retained for approximately three years.\n\nI understand that this is necessarily a reconstruction of historic practice\nbecause the relevant records no longer exist.\n\nCould you therefore confirm whether Cadw has located:\n\n   - a 1980s retention schedule;\n   - a disposal or destruction policy applicable to the relevant records;\n   - a disposal schedule;\n   - a destruction certificate or log;\n   - a transfer/accession record to RCAHMW or another repository; or\n   - any other contemporaneous record showing what happened to the Great\n   House Farm material.\n\nIf none has been located, I would be grateful if Cadw could state expressly\nthat *the approximately three-year retention period is an account of the\ngeneral historic practice as presently understood by current staff, and not\ndocumentary evidence establishing that the Great House Farm records were\nactually destroyed after three years.*\n\nThat is an important distinction for the historical record.\n7. What I am seeking from Cadw\n\nI am not asking Cadw to speculate about matters for which the documentary\nevidence has disappeared.\n\nIndeed, the purpose of my report was deliberately to separate:\n\n\n\n*what is established; what is a reasonable inference; and what can no\nlonger be verified because the records do not survive.*\n\nYour latest response is helpful in establishing the third category.\n\nI would therefore be grateful if Cadw could confirm, insofar as its records\npermit, the following concise position:\n\n*The surviving Cadw records relating to the December 1988 Great House Farm\nassessment consist of two photographs. Cadw cannot now establish from\nsurviving records the detailed evidential or administrative basis of the\ndecision, including whether the 1974 H.J. Thomas RCAHMW survey or relevant\narchaeological records were considered. Cadw has not located records\nestablishing the disposal or transfer of the missing assessment material,\nand the approximately three-year retention period represents the best\npresent understanding of historic practice rather than documentary evidence\nconcerning the disposal of this particular file.*\n\nIf that accurately reflects Cadw's position, I would regard that\nclarification as extremely useful.\n8. Historical record and next steps\n\nI will separately approach Heneb concerning the Historic Environment\nRecord, as you have advised, and will pursue the question of any\nappropriate heritage interpretation or marker with the relevant local\nauthority.\n\nI also appreciate your clarification that Cadw cannot require or facilitate\ninstallation of a marker.\n\nMy purpose in continuing this correspondence is therefore narrower than\nseeking to reopen the FOI request. I am seeking to ensure that the\nhistorical record does not inadvertently suggest that the absence of\nsurviving records means that the basis of the 1988 decision has been\nestablished.\n\nOn the evidence presently available, the more accurate position appears to\nbe that *the decision is documented, but its underlying evidential and\nadministrative reasoning is no longer recoverable from Cadw's surviving\nrecords.*\n\nThat is a significant historical finding in its own right.\n\nThank you again for your assistance. I would be grateful for confirmation\nof the above points, particularly the status of the 1974 survey, the July\n\"YYY\" coding, the identity of the December decision-maker, and the\nevidential basis (if any) for the disposal of the missing records.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nOn Thu, 27 Aug 2026, 13:21 , <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your latest correspondence dated 10th August in relation to\n> your initial freedom of Information request (ATISN 27021) submitted in June\n> 2026, which has been escalated to me for response.\n>\n>\n>\n> As stated by my colleagues, I can confirm that all records we hold have\n> been released to you.

The distinction is important to my enquiry.\n\nI am conducting a forensic reconstruction of the historical circumstances\nsurrounding the *BP Properties Ltd v Buckler* dispute, including the events\nsurrounding Mary Doreen Williams, and her death in March 1983.\n\nMary died during the very short period in which she would have had an\nopportunity to challenge the registration of her land in BP’s name. Her\nownership claim was never adjudicated or exstinguished. BP's award of\npossession of her land (not ownership) resulted in a brutal dispossession\nof her children and grandchildren resulting in a ECHR case in 1989, which\nalso prioritised BP's rights over the families.\n\nI am therefore examining the documentary evidence concerning both the\nland-registration dispute and the circumstances surrounding her death. I am\nnot suggesting from the timing alone that the two matters were connected;\nrather, I am seeking to establish the underlying facts and ensure that the\nsurviving official record has been properly accounted for.\n\nFor that reason, I need to distinguish between *a historical absence of a\ncoronial record* and *the absence of a record from a modern computer system\nwhich does not contain that historical material*.\n\nI understand from your latest email that your computer system does not\nstore information concerning referrals received in 1983 or before. On that\nbasis, I understand that the search of your present system cannot establish\nwhether Mary Doreen Williams was or was not referred to the coroner.\n\nCould I therefore clarify two points separately?\n\n*1. Mary Doreen Williams — March 1983*\n\nDoes your office have any information concerning where the historical\nrecords of the coroner responsible for Llandough Hospital in March 1983 are\nnow held, even if those records are no longer searchable by your office?\n\nI am trying to establish the documentary chain:\n\n*responsible coroner/jurisdiction → historical registers or case files →\ntransfer to archive or successor authority → present custodian, or\ndocumented destruction/retention history.*\n\nIf you do not know the name of the coroner, could you identify the former\ncoroner’s jurisdiction or office responsible for Llandough Hospital at that\ntime? That would enable me to make a properly targeted request to the\nrelevant archive or records custodian.\n\nYou previously indicated that Glamorgan Archives may hold paper copies of\nreports and post-mortem examination details. Could you clarify whether you\nknow that the historical Cardiff and Vale coronial records were actually\ntransferred to Glamorgan Archives, or whether Glamorgan Archives is being\nsuggested simply as the most likely repository?\n\nIf there is a known archive series, accession, register, transfer record or\nother indication of where the former coroner’s records were deposited, that\ninformation would be particularly helpful.\n\n*2. William (Billy) Buckler — May 1990*\n\nThere is a separate point concerning William (Billy) Buckler, who died in\n1990.\n\nYour latest clarification refers specifically to information for referrals\nreceived in *1983 or before*. As Billy died in 1990, could you please\nclarify whether his case was capable of being searched in the computer\nsystem you checked?\n\nIf it was searchable, I would be grateful if you could explain what the\nnegative result means — for example, whether no electronic record exists,\nor whether the relevant Cardiff and Vale coronial records for that period\nare held elsewhere.\n\nYour earlier email stated:\n\n“Cardiff and Vale cases prior to 2002 should be with the Glamorgan\nArchivist.”\n\nCould you please confirm whether that applies to Billy’s 1990 case as well?\n\nMore generally, I am trying to establish whether either death generated,\nand whether there may now survive:\n\n   - a referral to the coroner;\n   - a coroner’s register entry or index;\n   - a preliminary investigation or enquiry;\n   - a post-mortem examination;\n   - an inquest;\n   - police, hospital or other official correspondence;\n   - cause-of-death documentation;\n   - coroner’s case papers; or\n   - an archival transfer, retention or destruction record.\n\nI appreciate that some underlying records may be subject to access\nrestrictions, and I am not asking your office to disclose confidential\nmedical information at this stage. My immediate objective is more\nfundamental: *to establish whether a coronial record was created, whether\nit survives, and what happened to it.*\n\nThat distinction is important to the historical investigation. A\npresent-day search producing no result is evidentially quite different from\na historical record establishing that no referral, investigation,\npost-mortem or inquest ever took place.\n\nI will now approach Glamorgan Archives, but any information you can provide\nregarding the former coroner’s jurisdiction, the historical records held by\nthat jurisdiction, and their subsequent transfer or disposal would allow me\nto make that request considerably more precise.\n\nThank you again for taking the time to clarify the position. Your latest\nexplanation has been genuinely helpful in establishing the limitations of\nthe present electronic search, and I appreciate your assistance in\nidentifying the surviving historical record.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret’d Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Tue, 25 Aug 2026, 06:43 Morgan, Beverley, <[email redacted]>\nwrote:\n\n> Good morning, Mr Buckler,\n>\n> Sorry for the delay in my reply.\n>\n> Confirming my statement  “Unable to locate any details”- My computer\n> system does not store any information for referrals received in 1983 or\n> before, I am unable to confirm if any referrals were ever received for the\n> late Mary Doreen Williams or the late Mr William (Billy) Buckler.

I do not consider the response sufficient because it appears that the searches were conducted too narrowly around the later description of a \"medieval visor, lance, helmet or other item of armour\", rather than around the underlying historical discovery at Great House Farm itself.\n\nThe issue I am investigating is a reported nineteenth-century discovery at Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough. My understanding from contemporary or near-contemporary newspaper and historical accounts is that the discovery was described as involving the remains of a Roman soldier, with associated remains and objects. The dating and description of the individual objects as \"medieval\" may therefore itself be inaccurate, or may represent a later conflation or retelling of the original discovery.\n\nYour response is particularly significant because it states:\n\n<\"Our searches identified records relating to ... other archaeological discoveries recorded at Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough. These records do not relate to, nor are they otherwise associated with, the discovery described in your request. We have therefore not considered them to fall within the scope of this request.\">\n\nI respectfully challenge that approach.\n\nThe central question is precisely whether the discovery described in later historical accounts can be identified, corroborated, corrected or explained through the Museum's records concerning archaeological discoveries at Great House Farm. If the Museum has identified records relating to other discoveries at the same historically significant site, it is not sufficient simply to conclude internally that they are unrelated without disclosing what those discoveries are, when they were recorded, and the basis upon which that conclusion was reached.\n\nI therefore request that the internal review reconsider the scope of my request and undertake searches using, at minimum, the following terms and concepts:\n\n- Great House Farm\n- Ty Mawr\n- Llandough\n- Llandough, Cardiff\n- Roman soldier\n- Roman burial\n- Roman grave\n- Roman remains\n- human remains\n- skeleton\n- horse remains\n- equine remains\n- soldier and horse\n- cavalry burial\n- military burial\n- grave goods\n- Roman military equipment\n- visor\n- helmet\n- lance\n- spear\n- armour\n- archaeological discovery\n- nineteenth-century discovery\n- 1870 and adjacent years\n\nPlease also search for relevant records under alternative historical place-name indexing, donor names, findspot descriptions, parish names and catalogue terminology where the precise modern name \"Great House Farm\" may not have been used.\n\nMost importantly, I ask that you disclose sufficient information about the \"other archaeological discoveries\" which your searches identified at Great House Farm to enable me to understand and assess the Museum's conclusion that they are unrelated. This should include, so far as held:\n\n1. A description or title of each relevant discovery or record.\n2. The approximate date of the discovery or record.\n3. The nature of the material or remains involved.\n4. Any accession number, catalogue number or archival reference.\n5. The recorded provenance or findspot.\n6. Any dating attributed to the discovery.\n7. The basis upon which Amgueddfa Cymru concluded that each record was unrelated to the nineteenth-century discovery described in my request.\n\nI am not asking the Museum to create new archaeological opinions or undertake speculative research. I am asking for recorded information which has already been identified during the searches and which directly concerns archaeological discoveries at the specific site named in my request.\n\nIf the Museum maintains that any of those records fall outside the original scope, then please treat this email additionally as a refined request for the recorded information identified above.\n\nI would also ask the reviewer to consider whether the original response gave insufficient weight to the possibility that the historical account may have inaccurately dated or described the find. A search which excludes Roman, nineteenth-century, burial and equine terminology risks missing the very records capable of establishing what was actually discovered beneath Great House Farm.\n\nGiven that your searches have already identified records concerning archaeological discoveries at Great House Farm itself, I would be grateful for a full reconsideration and disclosure of the recorded information requested above.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Tue, 25 Aug 2026, 04:25 FOI Requests, <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler,\n\nThank you for your request for information received on 27 July 2026 concerning records relating to a reported discovery at Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough, including a soldier, horse remains and items described as a visor and lance.\n\nAmgueddfa Cymru has undertaken searches of its collections management systems, accession records and associated documentation.\n\nWe have not identified any records relating to the acquisition, accession, donation, transfer or deposit of a medieval visor, lance, helmet or other item of armour associated with Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough.

Learn why this is important \n\nBP Archive Team,\n\nI am writing to enquire about records held within the BP corporate archive relating to the former Great House Farm / Ty Mawr property at Llandough, near Penarth, Glamorgan, South Wales.\n\nI am conducting historical and legal research into the property, which was acquired by BP Pension Trust Ltd in December 1969 and subsequently administered by BP Properties Ltd. The property was the subject of extensive litigation, including BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2, followed by the eviction of the occupying family in 1988 and demolition of the farmhouse later that year.\n\nResearch context\n\nThe central issue of my research is the identification of the individual parcels comprising the historic property.\n\nThe evidence currently being examined indicates that the historic complex may have comprised separately identifiable:\n\n  *   a house-and-garden plot;\n  *   a western agricultural/farm plot containing the barn, stables and courtyard; and\n  *   an eastern cottages plot.\n\nLater mapping and Land Registry records appear to have treated some of these areas as a combined property.\n\nI am therefore particularly interested in establishing what BP itself understood the boundaries and constituent parcels of the property to be, and when any change or consolidation of those parcels occurred.\n\nRecords sought\n\nI would be grateful if the BP Archive could search its holdings for records concerning:\n\n  *   BP Properties Ltd;\n  *   BP Pension Trust Ltd;\n  *   British Petroleum and relevant predecessor/subsidiary property records;\n  *   Great House Farm / Great House / Ty Mawr, Llandough;\n  *   Llandough-juxta-Penarth / Cogan / Penarth;\n  *   the Williams and Buckler families;\n  *   possession proceedings and enforcement, particularly 1955, 1962 and 1974-1988;\n  *   property acquisition, title investigation and disposal;\n  *   conveyances, title deeds, abstracts of title and schedules of deeds;\n  *   estate-management correspondence;\n  *   property, site and boundary plans;\n  *   Land Registry correspondence and registration, particularly 1982-1983.\n\nThe relevant period is approximately 1955-1988, with particular emphasis on 1962-1983.\n\nThree priority categories\n\nIf relevant material survives, I would particularly like to identify the following, in this order:\n\n1.

I am attempting to reconstruct and forensically assess the historical circumstances surrounding her death in 1983, and there is information concerning the circumstances before and around her death which I am seeking to reconcile against the surviving official documentary record.\n\nCould you therefore please confirm whether your statement that you are \"unable to locate any details\" means only that neither individual appears in the records or computerised/indexed system currently available to your office, or whether your office is able positively to state that neither death was ever referred to the coroner?\n\nIn particular, if you are able to clarify, I would be grateful to know whether the absence of a record in your system excludes, or does not exclude, the historical existence of:\n\n  *   a report of the death to a coroner;\n  *   a preliminary coroner's enquiry;\n  *   a post-mortem examination;\n  *   an inquest;\n  *   correspondence with the police, hospital or other authority;\n  *   a case file or register subsequently transferred to an archive or destroyed in accordance with an applicable retention policy.\n\nI appreciate that you may not hold the historical records themselves. I am not asking you to speculate about the circumstances of either death. I am simply seeking to ensure that I correctly understand the evidential significance of the negative search result before proceeding to the archive.\n\nIf possible, I would also be grateful if you could confirm the name of the coroner jurisdiction or office responsible for Llandough/Llandough Hospital in March 1983, when Mary Doreen Williams died, and whether you know which body would have inherited or transferred that jurisdiction's surviving records.\n\nFor completeness, if there are any records held off-system, legacy indexes, paper registers, accession records or transfer information which are not searchable through the system you checked, I would be grateful if you could let me know whether those exist and who now holds them.\n\nI appreciate your assistance. I am trying to establish the documentary facts carefully and avoid drawing conclusions before the relevant records have been located or ruled out.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nOn Fri, 21 Aug 2026, 05:14 Coroner Admin, <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nGood morning, Mr Buckler\nThank you for your prompt reply.\nI have checked our system for any records relating to the two cases you have asked information for.\nUnfortunately, I am unable to locate any details on the Late Mr William Buckler or the late Mary Doreen Williams.\nCardiff and Vale cases prior to 2002 should be with the Glamorgan Archivist, you can contact them on Tel; [phone redacted] or [email redacted]<[email redacted]>\nI hope this information helps and I wish you the best in your search.\nKind Regards\nBev\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nSent: 21 August 2026 08:47\nTo: Coroner Admin <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nSubject: Re: FOI / Records Request – Deaths of William (Billy) Buckler (1990) and Mary Doreen Williams (1983)\n\n\nBev,\n\nThank you for clarifying the position regarding the Freedom of Information Act.\n\nI understand that coroners and their records are not subject to the FOI access regime. I am therefore not seeking to pursue the matter as an FOI request if that is not the appropriate route.\n\nMy primary purpose is to establish whether either of these deaths was ever referred to the coroner and, if so, whether any surviving record exists and what lawful route is available for an interested family member to obtain information from it.\n\nI would therefore be grateful if you could clarify the following, insofar as you are able:\n\n  1.  Whether your office has any record or index indicating that either William (Billy) Buckler, who died at Llandough Hospital on or about 29 May 1990, or Mary Doreen Williams, whose death was registered in March 1983 in South Glamorgan (Vol. 28, p. 3029), was reported to or dealt with by the coroner;\n  2.  If either death was the subject of a coroner's investigation, whether an inquest, post-mortem examination or other coroner's investigation took place;\n  3.  Whether any historical record relating to either death remains in the custody of the coroner's service, or whether such records have been transferred to another archive, authority or successor body;\n  4.  If records exist but cannot be disclosed directly, what procedure is available for a descendant or other interested person to establish the basic factual information concerning the case;\n  5.  If your office has no record whatsoever of either death, whether that means that no coroner's record exists, or simply that the surviving records are no longer held by your office.\n\nI am particularly interested in establishing the documentary chain rather than necessarily seeking disclosure of confidential medical information. A confirmation that a death was, or was not, referred to the coroner would itself be useful.\n\nIf you are not the appropriate office to answer these historical-record questions, I would be grateful if you could identify the relevant archive, successor body or other custodian to whom I should direct the enquiry.\n\nThank you again for your assistance.\n\nRegards,\n\n\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Fri, 21 Aug 2026, 04:33 Coroner Admin, <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nGood morning, Mr Buckler\nThank you for your e-mail dated 20/08/2026.\n\nAlthough appointed and paid for by local councils, the coroner is not a local government officer but holds office under the Crown.\n\nCoroners are not designated as public authorities under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and therefore their records are not subject to the information access regime of this Act.\n\nPlease let me know if I can be of further assistance.\nKind Regards\nBev Morgan\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nSent: 20 August 2026 20:34\nTo: Coroner Admin <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nSubject: FOI / Records Request – Deaths of William (Billy) Buckler (1990) and Mary Doreen Williams (1983)\n\nDear Coroner’s Office,\n\nI am writing under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and as an interested person to request any records held by the South Wales Central Coroner’s Service relating to the following two deaths:\n\n1.

The service became statutory on 9 September 2024,\n> when the death certification reforms came into force in England and Wales.\n> From that date, independent scrutiny by a Medical Examiner became a legal\n> requirement before registration of all non-coronial deaths. Therefore, for\n> deaths in 1983/1990, there would have been no Medical Examiner Service.\n> Death certification would have been carried out by the attending doctor,\n> with referrals made to the coroner where required under the rules that\n> existed at the time. The Medical Examiner system only arrived many decades\n> later.\n>\n>\n>\n> If both deaths occurred in Secondary Care, Hospitals do maintain records\n> of deaths that occurred in their facilities, but these are not generally\n> public records.\n>\n>\n>\n> The official legal record of a death is the death certificate registered\n> with the local registrar and held by the General Register Office (GRO). In\n> Wales, you can obtain copies of death certificates dating back before 1983\n> if the death was registered.  Hospital medical records are usually retained\n> under NHS records management policies and may still exist for deaths in\n> 1983, but access is restricted because they contain confidential medical\n> information.\n>\n>\n>\n> If you are researching a specific death from 1990 at Llandough Hospital,\n> possible sources are:\n>\n>\n>\n>    1. Death certificate from the General Register Office.\n>    2. Glamorgan Archives for historical NHS administrative records.\n>    3. The relevant NHS body that inherited Llandough Hospital records,\n>    now part of Cardiff and Vale University Health Board.\n>    4. Coroner's records, if an inquest was held.\n>\n>\n>\n> In 1990, Llandough Hospital was still an NHS hospital managed through the\n> local health authority system. This was under the South Glamorgan Health\n> Authority, which was responsible for hospitals in the Cardiff and Vale area\n> before NHS trusts were created in the early 1990s and now the Cardiff &\n> Vale University Health Board.\n>\n>\n>\n> They can be contacted here:\n>\n>\n>\n> Health Records - Cardiff and Vale University Health Board\n>  \n>\n>\n>\n> GP records are generally retained for a long period.

Very much appreciate your time in this\nmatter.\n\nI have considered it carefully. I now need to make one fundamental point\nclear. This is not any animosity or prejudice but a matter of upmost\nimportance to my family, many of whome are women and too frightened to\nspeak out. I must do my ahsolute best and part here and take the following\nposition on this matter.\n\nI do not accept the characterisation of my complaint as being simply that a\ncouncillor failed to answer a number of emails.\n\nThat formulation removes the very circumstances which made the conduct\ncomplained of potentially relevant to the standards expected of an elected\nmember.\n\nCouncillor Carroll initially responded to me and asked how he could help. I\nthen provided the information and evidence requested. What followed was not\nan isolated unanswered email, but a documented pattern of non-engagement\nover approximately five months, notwithstanding repeated approaches\nconcerning matters affecting his own ward, including planning, development,\nhistorical records and a serious concern that the title upon which current\ndevelopment is proceeding may itself require examination.\n\nI am not asking the Monitoring Officer to determine the ownership of Great\nHouse Farm by correspondence. Nor am I asking the Council to accept my\nallegations as established fact.\n\nI am asking whether the conduct of an elected member, in the circumstances\nactually presented, was properly assessed against the full range of\nstandards applicable to that member.\n1. The Code cannot be reduced to an obligation to answer emails\n\nI accept the proposition that the Members' Code does not create a general\nrule requiring a councillor to answer every email received from a member of\nthe public within a prescribed period.\n\nThat is not the proposition I have advanced.\n\nThe question is whether a sustained course of conduct can engage provisions\nof the Code concerning respect and consideration, conduct capable of\nbringing the member's office or authority into disrepute, misuse of\nposition, and the broader principles governing the conduct of elected\nrepresentatives.\n\nThe Council's current Constitution places the Members' Code within Section\n19 and separately identifies the principles governing members' conduct.\n\nThe Public Services Ombudsman for Wales itself describes the Code as\nimposing enforceable minimum standards on councillors and identifies,\namongst other matters, conduct which negatively affects an authority's\nreputation, unfair use of position, bullying, and failures to treat people\nequally as matters which can potentially constitute breaches.\n\nI therefore ask you to identify precisely which provisions you considered\nand, more importantly, why the particular factual circumstances I supplied\nwere considered incapable of engaging any of them.\n\nA conclusion that \"failure to respond is not itself a breach\" does not\nanswer that question.\n2. The actual chronology matters\n\nPlease record the chronology accurately.\n\nThis was not:\n\nfive emails were sent and a councillor did not reply.\n\nIt was:\n\n   - I approached my elected ward councillor concerning matters affecting\n   his ward;\n   - Councillor Carroll responded and asked how he could help;\n   - I then supplied substantive information and evidence;\n   - further correspondence followed on 16 February, 4 May, 7 June, 25 June\n   and 13 July 2026;\n   - the correspondence concerned, amongst other things, the historical\n   planning and development of Great House Farm / Church View Close, access to\n   relevant public records, and an apparent defect or inconsistency in the\n   historical title chain;\n   - despite the initial invitation to explain how he could assist, there\n   was subsequently no substantive engagement with the matters raised.\n\nThat is the conduct I asked you to assess.\n\nI therefore ask you to confirm whether you considered the actual underlying\nemails and attachments, rather than merely the summary chronology.\n3. Was Councillor Carroll's account obtained?\n\nYou have now confirmed that you did not consider it necessary to seek\ncomments from Councillor Carroll.\n\nI appreciate that you do not have to conduct a full investigation at this\nstage.\n\nNevertheless, that makes the precise nature of your decision particularly\nimportant.\n\nYou have reached a conclusion that the information provided did not\ndisclose evidence capable of amounting to a breach, whilst apparently not\nobtaining the explanation of the person whose conduct was complained of.\n\nThat does not necessarily make the decision unlawful. But it does mean that\nI am entitled to understand precisely what factual inference you drew from\nthe material before you.\n\nIn particular, if there was a reason why Councillor Carroll did not respond\nafter initially offering to help, I do not know what that reason was.\n\nIf the reason was that he considered the matter outside his role, please\nsay so.\n\nIf the reason was that he considered the correspondence excessive,\nvexatious or otherwise inappropriate, please say so.\n\nIf the reason was connected with material I had published or discussed on\nsocial media, please say so.\n\nIf there was another reason, please identify it.\n\nI am not alleging any particular explanation. I am asking that the factual\nbasis of the conduct not simply be assumed.\n4. Social media and equal treatment\n\nI also wish to place one specific issue on record.\n\nI understand that the Code does not simply regulate everything a member or\nmember of the public says on social media. The Ombudsman itself has\nseparate guidance concerning social media and the Code.\n\nAccordingly, if social-media material has influenced Councillor Carroll's\ndecision to disengage from me, I would ask that this be disclosed rather\nthan silently becoming the background justification for his conduct.\n\nIt would be an obvious inconsistency if material said or published by a\nconstituent outside the relevant Code framework were treated as a reason\nfor refusing to engage with that constituent, while the resulting conduct\nof the elected member were then assessed in isolation as merely \"a failure\nto respond\".\n\nAgain, I am not asserting that this occurred. I am asking that it not be\nassumed away.\n5. This is also a question of democratic accountability\n\nThere is a much wider issue here which I do not believe has been addressed.\n\nI am raising a documented public-interest concern concerning land within\nthe Council's area, historical planning and enforcement records, the\ndemolition and subsequent development of Great House Farm / Church View\nClose, and an apparent problem in the title history of land now associated\nwith substantial residential development.\n\nI am not asking the Council to decide my private ownership claim.\n\nI am asking that the concern be capable of being placed before the\ndemocratic institutions of the Council and scrutinised by the appropriate\npeople.\n\nThe Council itself expressly operates mechanisms for public questions at\nFull Council, and its published meeting material demonstrates that\nquestions from the public are part of its democratic process. The Council\nalso states that its meetings are conducted to support and promote\ndemocratic engagement and public interest.\n\nYour response says that no further action will be taken by you. It does\nnot, however, tell me what democratic route remains available for me to\nplace the underlying public-interest concern before elected members.\n\nI therefore ask you to identify that route.\n\nSpecifically, please confirm how I may:\n\n   1.\n\n   submit a public question to Full Council concerning the Council's\n   records and handling of this matter;\n   2.\n\n   submit a petition or e-petition;\n   3.\n\n   seek consideration by the appropriate Scrutiny Committee;\n   4.\n\n   raise the adequacy of the Council's handling of the matter with the\n   Governance and Audit Committee or other appropriate constitutional body; and\n   5.\n\n   request inspection of relevant historical background papers associated\n   with the planning and demolition history of the site.\n\nThe answer cannot simply be that the Monitoring Officer has decided not to\ntake further action. That determines one particular route. It does not\nextinguish democratic accountability.\n6. The public-record issue needs to be separated from the ownership dispute\n\nI also want to avoid any further misunderstanding concerning the planning\nrecords.\n\nI have repeatedly encountered historical material which is not presently\naccessible to me through the Council's online planning system.\n\nI am not presently asserting that this proves deliberate concealment.\n\nThere may be perfectly legitimate explanations: age of the records,\ndigitisation, migration between systems, retention arrangements, technical\nproblems, or the fact that historical material was never placed online.\n\nBut the important point is that the Council's own planning-register\narrangements acknowledge that the online register is not necessarily a\ncomplete database of everything held by the Council.\n\nThat makes the appropriate question one of transparency:\n\n*What records does the Council hold, what records does it no longer hold,\nwhere are the surviving records, and how can they be inspected?*\n\nThat is a straightforward public-record question.\n\nIt should not depend upon the Council first accepting my interpretation of\nthe title history.\n\nI therefore intend to pursue the records question separately and formally,\nincluding under the applicable information-access legislation where\nappropriate.\n7. The historical planning record is itself relevant\n\nThe historical demolition of Great House Farm is not an invented issue\narising solely from my family account.\n\nThe historic environment record identifies Great House Farm as a\nhistorically significant site and records its sudden and complete\ndemolition in December 1988 amid considerable local controversy.\n\nWhatever conclusion is ultimately reached concerning ownership, title or\nthe historical allegations, the existence of a significant historical\nrecord means that it is reasonable to ask what planning, enforcement,\ndemolition, committee and officer records survive and what decisions were\nmade.\n\nI am therefore not asking the Council to rewrite history in accordance with\nmy family's interpretation.\n\nI am asking the Council to disclose its own documentary history.\n8. Monitoring Officer responsibilities\n\nI also ask you to clarify the extent to which you have considered the\nCouncil's own potential obligations as an authority, as distinct from your\nassessment of Councillor Carroll's individual conduct.\n\nSection 5 of the Local Government and Housing Act 1989 places a statutory\nreporting function upon a Monitoring Officer where it appears that a\nproposal, decision or omission by the authority, its committees,\nsub-committees, officers or other specified authority actors gives rise to\nthe statutory circumstances identified in that provision.\n\nI am not asserting that section 5 automatically requires you to issue a\nreport merely because I have asked you to do so.\n\nI am asking a narrower and more reasonable question:\n\n*Have you considered whether any separate omission or decision by the\nCouncil itself — particularly concerning access to public records,\ndemocratic engagement or the handling of this matter — engages your\nstatutory Monitoring Officer responsibilities?*\n\nIf you have considered that question and concluded that section 5 is not\nengaged, please say so and give the reason.\n\nIf you have not considered it, please confirm that.\n9. The Ombudsman\n\nYour response expressly directs me to the Public Services Ombudsman for\nWales.\n\nI will therefore consider making a direct Code of Conduct complaint\nsupported by the underlying correspondence rather than relying upon the\nCouncil's characterisation of the matter.\n\nThat is particularly appropriate because the Ombudsman states that its\ninitial assessment considers whether evidence suggests that a Code breach\nmay have occurred and, separately, whether investigation would be\nsufficiently serious and in the public interest. The Ombudsman specifically\nidentifies maintaining public confidence in local councillors as one factor\nrelevant to that assessment.\n\nI will therefore allow the Ombudsman to make its own assessment of the\nevidence.\n\nI will provide it with the actual chronology, the original correspondence,\nthe initial response from Councillor Carroll asking how he could assist,\nthe subsequent correspondence, and your decision.\n10. One final point about the characterisation of my conduct\n\nI have been persistent because I consider the underlying matter important.\n\nPersistence should not be confused with misconduct.\n\nThe Ombudsman itself expressly states that it does not regard behaviour as\nunacceptable merely because a complainant is forceful or determined, while\nalso making clear that correspondence should remain polite and courteous.\n\nI accept the latter completely.\n\nI am therefore going to continue to pursue these matters firmly, but\nthrough the proper channels and on the evidence.\n\nWhat I will not accept is the repeated administrative reframing of a\nsubstantive public-interest concern as nothing more than an unhappy\nconstituent sending too many emails.\nAccordingly, I ask you to confirm:\n\n   1.\n\n   The exact provisions of the Members' Code of Conduct which you\n   considered.\n   2.\n\n   Whether you considered the five original emails and their attachments in\n   full.\n   3.\n\n   Whether you considered Councillor Carroll's initial response asking how\n   he could assist.\n   4.\n\n   Whether Councillor Carroll was asked for an explanation. If not, please\n   confirm that.\n   5.\n\n   Whether you are aware of any reason why he subsequently ceased\n   substantive engagement.\n   6.\n\n   Whether social-media activity formed any part of the reason for his\n   non-engagement.\n   7.\n\n   Whether you have considered any potential omission or decision by the\n   Council itself under your statutory Monitoring Officer responsibilities.\n   8.\n\n   What democratic mechanism you say is available for me to place the\n   underlying public-interest concern before elected members.\n   9.\n\n   How I can obtain or inspect the surviving planning, enforcement,\n   demolition, committee and officer records relating to Great House Farm /\n   Church View Close which are not available through the online planning\n   system.\n   10.\n\n   Whether any relevant records are known to have been destroyed, disposed\n   of, transferred, archived elsewhere or otherwise become unavailable, and,\n   if so, under what records-management arrangements.\n   11.\n\n   Whether the historical demolition and subsequent development were\n   considered by a Council committee and, if so, where the relevant agendas,\n   reports, minutes and background papers can be inspected.\n\nI am deliberately keeping these questions precise because I want a proper\nevidential record rather than another exchange in which the substance of\nthe issue is lost in administrative categorisation.\n\nI am also not asking you to endorse my conclusions concerning title.\n\nThe democratic question is much simpler:\n\n*Where a constituent places before his elected representative a documented\nconcern that land within the ward may be affected by a defective or\nunresolved title history, and where the historical public records needed to\nexamine that concern are not readily accessible, what mechanism exists for\nthat concern to be transparently examined rather than simply closed\nadministratively?*\n\nThat question remains unanswered.\n\nI would therefore be grateful for a substantive response to the points\nabove.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\n*Sion Hywel Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)*\n*Royal Signals Cyber & Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member*\n\nOn Mon, 24 Aug 2026, 10:59 Davidson, Victoria, <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler,\n>\n> Thank you for your email.\n>\n> I note your request for further clarification regarding my decision in my\n> capacity as Monitoring Officer.\n>\n> The assessment I undertook was limited to considering whether the\n> information provided disclosed evidence which, if established, could\n> indicate a failure by the member to comply with the statutory Member’s Code\n> of Conduct.

Correct as explained in my original email.\n\nIt does not, however, mean that searches have established that no historical records ever existed in relation to either death, nor that all records formerly held by the South Glamorgan Health Authority or its constituent hospitals and services have been searched and found not to exist. Unless there is something I am misunderstanding? I want to be sure I don't overlook any traces of evidence.  Correct, this would be the Health Board (Cardiff & Vale or C&V) to determine if records still exist.\n\nIn particular, as I understand the position you have confirmed, the following remain separate questions outside the scope of the current systems search:\n\n  *   whether hospital records relating to William Buckler's admission and death at Llandough Hospital on or about 29 May 1990 were created and, if so, whether any survive with Cardiff and Vale University Health Board or an archive; For C&V to confirm\n  *   whether equivalent medical, hospital or health-authority records relating to Mary Doreen Williams were created and, if so, where any surviving records are held; For C&V to confirm\n  *   whether either death was referred to a coroner or involved a post-mortem, inquest or other separate investigation; For coroner’s office to confirm\n  *   whether any relevant records formerly held by the South Glamorgan Health Authority were transferred to a successor body or archive; and For C&V to confirm\n  *   where records no longer survive, whether they were destroyed under an applicable retention and disposal process. They would have been completed many years ago but this would be for the responsible Health Body to confirm.\n\nI appreciate that these matters may fall outside your office's remit and I am not asking you to undertake those searches yourself. I simply want to ensure that the documentary record accurately distinguishes \"no records found on the systems searched\" from \"no historical records ever existed or survive anywhere within the former health-authority system.\"\n\nIf that distinction is correct, I would be grateful for your confirmation. I will then pursue the surviving-record and archival questions with the appropriate successor bodies.\n\nThank you again for your assistance.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant) Royal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\n\n\nOn Mon, 24 Aug 2026, 05:42 Tim Knifton (NWSSP - Information Governance),  > wrote:\n\nDear Mr Buckler,\n\n\n\nYou’re very welcome and glad I could be of some further assistance.\n\n\n\nAs requested, reading the points as set out in your email below, this is the correct position.\n\n\n\nYours sincerely,\n\n\n\nTim Knifton, MSc Gwybodeg Iechyd/Health Informatics\n\nRheolwr Rheoli Gwybodaeth/Information Governance Manager\n\nPartneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru/NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership\n\ne-bost/ email: [email redacted] \n\nRhyngrwyd • Internet: https://nwssp.nhs.wales/\n\nTwitter: @nwssp \n\n\n\nMae PCGC yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn y Gymraeg neu Saesneg.\n\nNWSSP welcomes correspondence in Welsh or English.\n\n\n\n'Mae'r e-bost hwn ac unrhyw ffeiliau sy'n cyd-fynd gyda’r e-bost hwn, ddim ond ar gyfer defnydd priodol y derbynnydd/ion, a gall gynnwys gwybodaeth sy'n freintiedig, yn gyfrinachol neu eithriedig rhag cael ei ddatgelu.

Thank you for your detailed response and for taking the time to clarify the position. I have passed my concerned to the National Crime Agency too.\n\nI appreciate the confirmation that the All Wales Medical Examiner Service did not exist at the time of either death and that, consequently, it would not hold predecessor records relating to deaths in 1983 or 1990.\n\nI am also grateful that you asked the registration team to conduct a search and confirmed that no records were found for either individual on the systems searched.\n\nFor the purposes of maintaining an accurate documentary record, I would be grateful if you could clarify one final point. My objective is to distinguish clearly between records which were never held by the present organisation, records which once existed but have since been destroyed, and records which may survive with a successor body or archive.\n\nAs I understand your response, the position is as follows:\n\n  *   the Medical Examiner Service holds no relevant historical records because the service was not established until 2019;\n  *   the primary care registration system and the records searched by your registration team contain no records for either William Buckler or Mary Doreen Williams;\n  *   any original hospital or health-authority records relating to these deaths would have fallen under the former South Glamorgan Health Authority and its applicable records-management arrangements;\n  *   surviving hospital records relating to William Buckler's death at Llandough Hospital may therefore be held by, or have passed to, Cardiff and Vale University Health Board or another successor/archive repository;\n  *   records relating to any coroner referral, post-mortem or inquest, if such events occurred, may have been held separately; and\n  *   GP records may have been destroyed under applicable retention arrangements, although the present search has not identified a specific destruction record for either individual.\n\nIf that is an accurate summary of your position, no further action is required from your office. I would simply be grateful for confirmation, particularly that the statement that no records were found does not amount to confirmation that no historical records ever existed elsewhere within the former South Glamorgan Health Authority system.\n\nThank you again for clarifying the historical position and for identifying Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, Glamorgan Archives and the coroner's records as the more appropriate avenues for further enquiry.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\n\n\nOn Mon, 24 Aug 2026, 04:56 Tim Knifton (NWSSP - Information Governance),  > wrote:\n\nDear Mr Buckler\n\n\n\nThank you for your email. As the main contact for Freedom of Information, I have not seen your request previously but I will explain what I can in regards to your original request:\n\n\n\nI am writing to enquire whether any records or references are held in relation to the following historical deaths that occurred in the Cardiff & Vale / Llandough area:\n\n1. William (Billy) Buckler\n   - Died at Llandough Hospital on or about 29 May 1990, aged 41\n   - Reported cause: heart attack\n\n2. Mary Doreen Williams\n   - Born 10 August 1913\n   - Death registered March 1983, South Glamorgan (Vol 28, Page 3029)\n\nAlthough these pre-date the current Medical Examiner Service, I would be grateful if you could advise whether any legacy records, referrals, or related documentation exist, or direct me to the appropriate archive or department that may hold such information.\n\n\n\nThe All Wales Medical Examiner Service was introduced on a non-statutory basis in 2019. It operated across Wales to provide independent scrutiny of deaths that were not referred to a coroner so deaths in 1983 and 1990 would not apply in this case. The service became statutory on 9 September 2024, when the death certification reforms came into force in England and Wales. From that date, independent scrutiny by a Medical Examiner became a legal requirement before registration of all non-coronial deaths. Therefore, for deaths in 1983/1990, there would have been no Medical Examiner Service. Death certification would have been carried out by the attending doctor, with referrals made to the coroner where required under the rules that existed at the time. The Medical Examiner system only arrived many decades later.\n\n\n\nIf both deaths occurred in Secondary Care, Hospitals do maintain records of deaths that occurred in their facilities, but these are not generally public records.\n\n\n\nThe official legal record of a death is the death certificate registered with the local registrar and held by the General Register Office (GRO). In Wales, you can obtain copies of death certificates dating back before 1983 if the death was registered.  Hospital medical records are usually retained under NHS records management policies and may still exist for deaths in 1983, but access is restricted because they contain confidential medical information.\n\n\n\nIf you are researching a specific death from 1990 at Llandough Hospital, possible sources are:\n\n\n\n  1.  Death certificate from the General Register Office.\n  2.  Glamorgan Archives for historical NHS administrative records.\n  3.  The relevant NHS body that inherited Llandough Hospital records, now part of Cardiff and Vale University Health Board.\n  4.  Coroner's records, if an inquest was held.\n\n\n\nIn 1990, Llandough Hospital was still an NHS hospital managed through the local health authority system. This was under the South Glamorgan Health Authority, which was responsible for hospitals in the Cardiff and Vale area before NHS trusts were created in the early 1990s and now the Cardiff & Vale University Health Board.\n\n\n\nThey can be contacted here:\n\n\n\nHealth Records - Cardiff and Vale University Health Board \n\n\n\nGP records are generally retained for a long period. Under current NHS records management guidance, GP records are typically kept for 10 years after a patient's death before being destroyed so these records would be out of scope.\n\n\n\nI have asked our registration team to search both patients and there are no records found for either patients due to the time elapsed.\n\n\n\nFurther comments have been provided below in red for reference.\n\n\n\nI hope that this is an acceptable response.\n\n\n\nYours sincerely,\n\n\n\nTim Knifton, MSc Gwybodeg Iechyd/Health Informatics\n\nRheolwr Rheoli Gwybodaeth/Information Governance Manager\n\nPartneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru/NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership\n\ne-bost/ email: [email redacted] \n\nRhyngrwyd • Internet: https://nwssp.nhs.wales/\n\nTwitter: @nwssp \n\n\n\nMae PCGC yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn y Gymraeg neu Saesneg.\n\nNWSSP welcomes correspondence in Welsh or English.\n\n\n\n'Mae'r e-bost hwn ac unrhyw ffeiliau sy'n cyd-fynd gyda’r e-bost hwn, ddim ond ar gyfer defnydd priodol y derbynnydd/ion, a gall gynnwys gwybodaeth sy'n freintiedig, yn gyfrinachol neu eithriedig rhag cael ei ddatgelu.

Rather, I would like to establish whether an adequate search was undertaken before the conclusion was reached.\n\nYour latest response states that the Medical Examiner Service would not hold “any records whatsoever” or have “any knowledge” of these patients. Given that the deaths occurred in 1983 and 1990, before the establishment of the current Medical Examiner Service, I would be grateful if the internal review could specifically establish whether the search extended beyond current Medical Examiner records to any relevant predecessor, legacy or transferred records. This would have not been something that the medical examiner would have been able to complete as explained above.\n\nIn particular, could the review please confirm:\n\n  1.  What records and information systems were searched; primary care registration system\n  2.  Whether any legacy or predecessor records relating to the medical examination or certification of deaths were considered; No legacy records going back to 1983/1990 would be considered as the service concentrates on independent scrutiny of deaths that were not referred to a coroner in the present day\n  3.  Whether records relating to Llandough Hospital, where William Buckler is recorded as having died in approximately May 1990, are held by the Medical Examiner Service, NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership, another NHS body, or an archive to which you have access or knowledge; As explained above\n  4.  Whether any records concerning referrals to a coroner, inquests, post-mortems or other investigations into these deaths would have been held separately from Medical Examiner records;\n  5.  Whether the possibility of records having been transferred to an archive or successor organisation was considered; This would have been completed under the old Health Authority and retained for the specific time period under records management policies.\n  6.  Whether the statement that no records are held means that no relevant records are held by the South Wales Central Medical Examiner Service specifically, or that searches have established that no such records are held anywhere within NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership; and Medical Examiner was not established until 2019, historic records going back to the 1980s and 1990s would not form part of the remit of the service.\n  7.  If the records are not held by your organisation, whether you can identify the appropriate current custodian or archive for any surviving historical records. Explained above\n\nFor clarity, the individuals concerned are:\n\n  *   William (Billy) Buckler – died at Llandough Hospital on or about 29 May 1990, aged 41; and\n  *   Mary Doreen Williams – born 10 August 1913; death registered in March 1983, South Glamorgan, Vol. 28, p. 3029.\n\nI would be grateful if this could be treated as a formal internal review rather than simply a further general enquiry.\n\nI would also ask that the review be undertaken by someone who was not responsible for the original response, where practicable.\n\nMy purpose is to establish a reliable documentary record and, in particular, to distinguish between:\n\n(a) records which do not exist;\n\n(b) records which once existed but have been destroyed;\n\n(c) records which exist but are held by another organisation; and\n\n(d) records which are held within NHS Wales or a predecessor organisation but were not identified by the original search.\n\nI would be grateful for confirmation of the review and, where applicable, the relevant FOI reference number.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\n\n\nOn Fri, 21 Aug 2026, 04:33 SouthWalesCentral MedicalExaminersOffice (Gen126594),  > wrote:\n\nGood morning\n\n\n\nWe would not hold any records whatsoever or have any knowledge of these patients.\n\n\n\nMany thanks\n\n\n\nMichelle\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSwyddfa Ganolog De Cymru South Wales Central Office\n\nGwasanaeth Archwilio Meddygol Cymru Gyfan  All Wales Medical Examiners Service\n\nPartneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru  NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership\n\nFfon Telephone:  [phone redacted]\n\nE-bost  Email: [email redacted] \n\nGwefan Website:  https://nwssp.nhs.wales/ourservices/medical-examiner-service/\n\n\n\nMae Partneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn y Gymraeg.\n\nNHS Wales Shared Services welcomes correspondence in Welsh.\n\nDw i ddim yn deall Cymraeg.

The search was conducted using the court's current internal case management system. The proceedings referenced in your enquiry pre-date the introduction of modern electronic case management systems and would originally have been maintained as paper records. No records relating to the proceedings identified were located.\n  2.  No surviving court file relating to the proceedings specified in your request has been identified. This office has not located any surviving historical finding aids, registers, order books, cause books, warrant books, index cards or similar records relating to those proceedings.\n  3.  The conclusion that records of this age would not ordinarily be held is based on HMCTS records retention arrangements for possession proceedings. Under the records schedule available to this office,” paper records are retained for three years from the last meaningful transaction and then destroyed. Where applicable, records may be retained for longer if subject to litigation, audit, inquiry or other legal hold requirements. We do not hold information identifying the specific historical retention schedule applicable to the proceedings 1974.\n  4.  Destroy/Delete: The record is securely destroyed (paper records shredded; electronic records permanently deleted). Many civil court records follow this route after their retention period expires.\n  5.  No destruction register, destruction certificate, transfer schedule or equivalent administrative record relating to the proceedings specified has been identified by this office.\n\n\nWarmest regards,\n\nJyothi Polusani\n\nAdministration Officer\nAdran Gorfodi / Enforcement Section\n\nCanolfan Llysoedd Sifil Caerdydd | 2 Stryd Y Parc | Caerdydd | [postcode redacted]\nCardiff Civil Justice Centre | 2 Park Street | Cardiff  | [postcode redacted]\n[phone redacted] [email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n\nI am not authorised to bind the Ministry of Justice contractually, nor to make representations or other statements which may bind the Ministry of Justice in any way via electronic means.\nNid oes gennyf awdurdod i rwymo’r Weinyddiaeth Gyfiawnder trwy gytundeb, na chyflwyno sylwadau neu ddatganiadau eraill a all rwymo’r Weinyddiaeth Gyfiawnder mewn unrhyw ffordd trwy ddull electronig\n\n\nFor information on how HMCTS uses personal data about you please see:\nAm wybodaeth ynghylch sut mae GLlTEF yn defnyddio data personol amdanoch chi, ewch i:\nwww.gov.uk/government/organisations/hm-courts-and-tribunals-service/about/personal-information-charter<http://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/hm-courts-and-tribunals-service/about/personal-information-charter>\n\n\n\n\n\nOFFICIAL\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]>\nSent: 04 August 2026 18:35\nTo: Cardiff County, Enquiries <[email redacted]>\nSubject: Re: Great House Farm, Llandough, Cardiff\n\n\nDear Ms Owen,\n\nThank you for your email of 4 August 2026 and for confirming that a search of your internal case management system has been carried out with no results identified.\n\nMy request was not limited to whether records are currently held on that system. It also sought confirmation of what searches (if any) were made of historical paper records, indexes and finding aids, and what became of the court records relating to the proceedings I identified.\n\nYou state that, due to the age of the case, the court would not currently hold records \"in line with our procedures.\" I should be grateful if you would clarify the basis for that statement by addressing the following points:\n\n  1.  What is the precise name of the internal case management system that was searched, and what period of records does it cover?\n  2.  Were any surviving paper finding aids or historical records examined, including cause books, order books, registers of judgments or orders, warrant books, index cards, or any other historical indexes maintained by Cardiff County Court, Cardiff Civil Justice Centre, or their predecessors?\n  3.  Were any archived or off-site repositories under HMCTS control considered or searched?\n  4.  Please identify the records retention, disposal or archival policy, schedule or instruction relied upon in concluding that records of this age would no longer be held. I note that the current publicly available County Court Records Retention and Disposition Schedule specifies relatively short retention periods for possession action cases. I should therefore be grateful if you could identify the historical policy, schedule or instruction that governed the records relating to these proceedings and, if possible, indicate when they would have been scheduled for destruction or transfer.\n  5.  Does HMCTS hold any administrative record of the destruction or transfer of the relevant files, such as destruction registers, certificates, transfer schedules or equivalent records?\n  6.  Were any records relating to these proceedings transferred to another repository, including The National Archives, Glamorgan Archives, or any other archive? If so, I should be grateful if you would provide the destination, date and any available reference.\n  7.  Even if the original case files no longer survive, do any registers, indexes or other administrative records remain recording the existence, progress or disposal of proceedings involving the Williams family, the Buckler family, Western Ground Rents Ltd, BP Pension Trust Ltd, BP Properties Ltd, or Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough?\n\nThe proceedings in question include the High Court possession proceedings of 1955 (including enforcement on or around 4 July 1955), the Cardiff County Court proceedings culminating in the possession order of 11 December 1962 before Judge Temple Morris QC, and the Cardiff County Court proceedings of 1974, including the part-heard hearing of 3 July 1974, the application for leave to enforce in September 1974, and the subsequent correspondence concerning the proposed unilateral licence arrangement.\n\nI have already been making enquiries of HM Land Registry. However, my present request concerns the court's own records, the searches undertaken in relation to those records, and any surviving administrative record of their retention, destruction or transfer.\n\nIf the information requested is not held within the Enforcement Section, I should be grateful if this enquiry could be forwarded to the appropriate court manager, records officer or other HMCTS team responsible for historical court records, and if you could kindly confirm that this has been done.\n\nThank you for your assistance. I look forward to your substantive reply addressing each of the points above.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Hywel Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n[address redacted]\nDinas Powys\n[postcode redacted]\n[email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n\nOn Tue, 4 Aug 2026, 09:43 Cardiff County, Enquiries, <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nGood afternoon,\n\nThank you for your email.\n\nDue to the age of this case, we wouldn’t currently hold any existing records for it, in line with our procedures.

As Monitoring Officer, I do not have formal investigatory powers equivalent to those of the Public Services Ombudsman for Wales and I am not required to undertake an investigation or obtain representations from a member before deciding whether there is sufficient basis for a referral to be made. My role at this stage is to consider whether the information presented discloses evidence of conduct that appears capable of amounting to a breach of the Code.\nIn reaching my view, I considered the information provided within your complaint, including the chronology you supplied regarding correspondence sent to Councillor Carroll between February and July 2026. The substance of the complaint was that you had not received substantive responses to a number of emails sent over that period.\nFor completeness, I considered whether the conduct alleged could potentially engage any of the principal obligations contained within the Member's Code of Conduct. These include requirements that members show respect and consideration for others, do not engage in bullying, harassment or discriminatory behaviour, do not bring their office or authority into disrepute, do not improperly use their position to confer an advantage or disadvantage on any person, and do not misuse Council resources or confidential information.\nWhilst I appreciate that the absence of a response to correspondence may be frustrating, the information provided did not disclose evidence of disrespectful behaviour, bullying, harassment, misuse of position, misuse of Council resources, disclosure of confidential information, conduct bringing the office of member or the authority into disrepute, or any other behaviour which appeared capable of amounting to a breach of the Code. In reaching that view, I considered the nature of the conduct alleged, namely a failure to respond to correspondence, and whether that conduct engaged any provision of the Code.\nIt is important to note that the Member’s Code of Conduct does not impose a general obligation on elected members to respond to all correspondence received from members of the public, nor does it prescribe timescales within which responses must be provided. The Code is concerned with standards of conduct rather than the quality, adequacy or timeliness of constituency casework. Consequently, a decision not to respond, or not to respond in the manner sought by a correspondent, does not of itself constitute evidence of a breach of the Code.\nGiven that the information provided did not disclose evidence which appeared capable of amounting to a breach of the Code, I did not consider it necessary or proportionate to seek comments from Councillor Carroll before reaching that conclusion. My decision was therefore based upon the information contained within your complaint and whether that information, taken at its highest, indicated a potential breach of the Code warranting further action.\nFor completeness, any person is entitled to submit a complaint directly to the Public Services Ombudsman for Wales if they believe a member has failed to comply with the Member’s Code of Conduct. The Ombudsman is independent of the Council and is responsible for determining whether a complaint should be investigated and, if so, whether any further action is appropriate.\nI trust this clarifies the basis of my decision. Having reviewed the information provided, my position remains that I have not identified evidence which would justify further action by me in my capacity as Monitoring Officer.\nYours sincerely,\n\n\nVictoria Davidson\nMonitoring Officer/Head of Legal and Democratic Services / Swyddog Monitro / Pennaeth Gwasanaethau Cyfreithiol a Democrataidd\nDirector's Office - Resources / Swyddfa’r Cyfarwyddwr - Adnoddau\nVale of Glamorgan Council / Cyngor Bro Morgannwg\ntel / ffôn: [phone redacted]\nmob / sym: [phone redacted]\ne-mail / e-bost: [email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n\nConsider the environment.

I am not seeking to use the corporate complaints procedure as an appeal against historic planning, enforcement, land or judicial decisions.\n\nHowever, I do wish to clarify one important point concerning your decision in your capacity as Monitoring Officer.\n\nMy complaint about Councillor George Carroll was not simply that the Council should revisit historic decisions concerning Great House Farm. The specific concern was his repeated failure to provide any substantive response to correspondence sent to him in his capacity as the elected councillor for Llandough, despite repeated approaches over a period of approximately five months and despite the correspondence setting out specific matters concerning his ward.\n\nThe chronology supplied with my complaint records correspondence on:\n\n  *   16 February 2026;\n  *   4 May 2026;\n  *   7 June 2026;\n  *   25 June 2026; and\n  *   13 July 2026.\n\nMy complaint therefore concerned the conduct and handling of that correspondence by an elected member, rather than asking the Monitoring Officer to determine the underlying historical ownership or planning dispute.\n\nYou state:\n\n“Having reviewed the information you have provided, I have not identified evidence which would indicate a breach of the Members Code of Conduct.”\n\nI would therefore be grateful for clarification of the basis upon which that conclusion was reached.\n\nIn particular, please confirm:\n\n  1.  Which specific provisions of the Members' Code of Conduct were considered in assessing my complaint.\n  2.  Whether the complete correspondence chronology and the underlying emails and attachments were considered, rather than merely my summary of them.\n  3.  Whether Councillor Carroll was invited to provide an explanation or response concerning the repeated absence of any substantive response to the correspondence.\n  4.  If so, whether his response was taken into account in reaching your conclusion.\n  5.  If not, please explain how the Monitoring Officer was able to determine that there was no evidence indicating a possible breach without obtaining the member's account of the conduct complained of.\n  6.  Please explain, in sufficient detail to enable me to understand the decision, why the documented pattern of conduct was considered incapable of engaging any provision of the Members' Code of Conduct.\n\nI appreciate that failure to answer correspondence does not, by itself, necessarily constitute a breach of the Code. I am not asserting that proposition. My concern is that the Monitoring Officer appears to have reached a definitive conclusion without identifying the relevant Code provisions, the evidence considered, or the reasoning by which that evidence was found insufficient.\n\nI would also ask you to clarify whether you consider that the matter should instead be referred to the Public Services Ombudsman for Wales for consideration under its jurisdiction concerning complaints about the conduct of elected members.\n\nI note that your response states that no further action will be taken by you as Monitoring Officer. I will therefore retain your letter, together with my original complaint and the complete correspondence record, for consideration of whether a complaint should be submitted to the Public Services Ombudsman for Wales.\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, I am not asking you to determine the historical merits of the Great House Farm dispute through the corporate complaints procedure. I am asking for the reasoning and evidential basis for the separate determination you have made concerning the conduct of an elected member.\n\nI would be grateful if you could therefore provide the above clarification and confirm the relevant Code provisions considered.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Hywel Buckler\n(Ret’d Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber & Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Wed, 12 Aug 2026, 11:24 Davidson, Victoria, <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler,\nThank you for your email regarding Councillor George Carroll and for setting out the background to your concerns relating to Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough, now Church View Close.\nI acknowledge receipt of your correspondence and have carefully considered the matters you have raised.\nHaving reviewed your complaint, I do not consider that it falls within the scope of the Vale of Glamorgan Council's Corporate Concerns and Complaints Policy.

D. Carroll (Llandough ward) to respond substantively to my repeated and reasonable correspondence concerning historic land, planning, enforcement, heritage and related public-interest matters at Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough (now Church View Close), Vale of Glamorgan.\n\nI have a legitimate and long-standing family interest in the site (Williams/Buckler family connection documented from the 17th century). See attached.\n\nThe issues raised include alleged defective notices, loss of opportunity to contest enforcement leading to demolition in 1988, heritage/regulatory oversight, planning and title records, and related transparency failures.\n\nDespite multiple contacts over several months, I have received no substantive replies from Cllr Carroll. This constitutes a failure to respond and a failure to deal with the case properly.\n\n### Full correspondence log with Cllr George Carroll ([email redacted]<[email redacted]>)\n\n| Date       | Subject / Key content                                                                 | Response received |\n|------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------|\n| 16 Feb 2026 | Potential gaps in Council planning/record-keeping for Great House Farm (demolished 1988); title fraud and procedural issues relating to Church View Close | None |\n\n| 4 May 2026  | Request regarding BP vs Buckler 1987; shared media/evidence; request for attention as Llandough councillor | None |\n\n| 7 Jun 2026  | “Church View Close, Llandough” – piecing together 1988 events from public records, family testimony and media | None |\n\n| 25 Jun 2026 | “Great House Farm, Llandough” – enquiry whether prior concerns on family dispossession had been reviewed; request for any progress or discussion | None |\n\n| 13 Jul 2026 | “Great House Farm/ Church View Close” – formal follow-up listing the above timeline, restating legitimate interest (family roots since 1667), noting absence of replies, requesting detailed response within 10 working days, and raising the removed commemorative tree | None |\n\n### Remedy sought\n\n1.

Correct as explained in my original email.\n\nIt does not, however, mean that searches have established that no historical records ever existed in relation to either death, nor that all records formerly held by the South Glamorgan Health Authority or its constituent hospitals and services have been searched and found not to exist. Unless there is something I am misunderstanding? I want to be sure I don't overlook any traces of evidence.  Correct, this would be the Health Board (Cardiff & Vale or C&V) to determine if records still exist.\n\nIn particular, as I understand the position you have confirmed, the following remain separate questions outside the scope of the current systems search:\n\n  *   whether hospital records relating to William Buckler's admission and death at Llandough Hospital on or about 29 May 1990 were created and, if so, whether any survive with Cardiff and Vale University Health Board or an archive; For C&V to confirm\n  *   whether equivalent medical, hospital or health-authority records relating to Mary Doreen Williams were created and, if so, where any surviving records are held; For C&V to confirm\n  *   whether either death was referred to a coroner or involved a post-mortem, inquest or other separate investigation; For coroner’s office to confirm\n  *   whether any relevant records formerly held by the South Glamorgan Health Authority were transferred to a successor body or archive; and For C&V to confirm\n  *   where records no longer survive, whether they were destroyed under an applicable retention and disposal process. They would have been completed many years ago but this would be for the responsible Health Body to confirm.\n\nI appreciate that these matters may fall outside your office's remit and I am not asking you to undertake those searches yourself. I simply want to ensure that the documentary record accurately distinguishes \"no records found on the systems searched\" from \"no historical records ever existed or survive anywhere within the former health-authority system.\"\n\nIf that distinction is correct, I would be grateful for your confirmation. I will then pursue the surviving-record and archival questions with the appropriate successor bodies.\n\nThank you again for your assistance.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant) Royal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Mon, 24 Aug 2026, 05:42 Tim Knifton (NWSSP - Information Governance),  > wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler,\n\nYou’re very welcome and glad I could be of some further assistance.\n\nAs requested, reading the points as set out in your email below, this is the correct position.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nTim Knifton, MSc Gwybodeg Iechyd/Health Informatics\nRheolwr Rheoli Gwybodaeth/Information Governance Manager\nPartneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru/NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership\ne-bost/ email: [email redacted] \nRhyngrwyd • Internet: https://nwssp.nhs.wales/\nTwitter: @nwssp \n\nMae PCGC yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn y Gymraeg neu Saesneg.\nNWSSP welcomes correspondence in Welsh or English.\n\n'Mae'r e-bost hwn ac unrhyw ffeiliau sy'n cyd-fynd gyda’r e-bost hwn, ddim ond ar gyfer defnydd priodol y derbynnydd/ion, a gall gynnwys gwybodaeth sy'n freintiedig, yn gyfrinachol neu eithriedig rhag cael ei ddatgelu.

Thank you for your detailed response and for taking the time to clarify the position. I have passed my concerned to the National Crime Agency too.\n\nI appreciate the confirmation that the All Wales Medical Examiner Service did not exist at the time of either death and that, consequently, it would not hold predecessor records relating to deaths in 1983 or 1990.\n\nI am also grateful that you asked the registration team to conduct a search and confirmed that no records were found for either individual on the systems searched.\n\nFor the purposes of maintaining an accurate documentary record, I would be grateful if you could clarify one final point. My objective is to distinguish clearly between records which were never held by the present organisation, records which once existed but have since been destroyed, and records which may survive with a successor body or archive.\n\nAs I understand your response, the position is as follows:\n\n  *   the Medical Examiner Service holds no relevant historical records because the service was not established until 2019;\n  *   the primary care registration system and the records searched by your registration team contain no records for either William Buckler or Mary Doreen Williams;\n  *   any original hospital or health-authority records relating to these deaths would have fallen under the former South Glamorgan Health Authority and its applicable records-management arrangements;\n  *   surviving hospital records relating to William Buckler's death at Llandough Hospital may therefore be held by, or have passed to, Cardiff and Vale University Health Board or another successor/archive repository;\n  *   records relating to any coroner referral, post-mortem or inquest, if such events occurred, may have been held separately; and\n  *   GP records may have been destroyed under applicable retention arrangements, although the present search has not identified a specific destruction record for either individual.\n\nIf that is an accurate summary of your position, no further action is required from your office. I would simply be grateful for confirmation, particularly that the statement that no records were found does not amount to confirmation that no historical records ever existed elsewhere within the former South Glamorgan Health Authority system.\n\nThank you again for clarifying the historical position and for identifying Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, Glamorgan Archives and the coroner's records as the more appropriate avenues for further enquiry.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Mon, 24 Aug 2026, 04:56 Tim Knifton (NWSSP - Information Governance),  > wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler\n\nThank you for your email. As the main contact for Freedom of Information, I have not seen your request previously but I will explain what I can in regards to your original request:\n\nI am writing to enquire whether any records or references are held in relation to the following historical deaths that occurred in the Cardiff & Vale / Llandough area:\n\n1. William (Billy) Buckler\n   - Died at Llandough Hospital on or about 29 May 1990, aged 41\n   - Reported cause: heart attack\n\n2. Mary Doreen Williams\n   - Born 10 August 1913\n   - Death registered March 1983, South Glamorgan (Vol 28, Page 3029)\n\nAlthough these pre-date the current Medical Examiner Service, I would be grateful if you could advise whether any legacy records, referrals, or related documentation exist, or direct me to the appropriate archive or department that may hold such information.\n\nThe All Wales Medical Examiner Service was introduced on a non-statutory basis in 2019. It operated across Wales to provide independent scrutiny of deaths that were not referred to a coroner so deaths in 1983 and 1990 would not apply in this case. The service became statutory on 9 September 2024, when the death certification reforms came into force in England and Wales. From that date, independent scrutiny by a Medical Examiner became a legal requirement before registration of all non-coronial deaths. Therefore, for deaths in 1983/1990, there would have been no Medical Examiner Service. Death certification would have been carried out by the attending doctor, with referrals made to the coroner where required under the rules that existed at the time. The Medical Examiner system only arrived many decades later.\n\nIf both deaths occurred in Secondary Care, Hospitals do maintain records of deaths that occurred in their facilities, but these are not generally public records.\n\nThe official legal record of a death is the death certificate registered with the local registrar and held by the General Register Office (GRO). In Wales, you can obtain copies of death certificates dating back before 1983 if the death was registered.  Hospital medical records are usually retained under NHS records management policies and may still exist for deaths in 1983, but access is restricted because they contain confidential medical information.\n\nIf you are researching a specific death from 1990 at Llandough Hospital, possible sources are:\n\n\n  1.  Death certificate from the General Register Office.\n  2.  Glamorgan Archives for historical NHS administrative records.\n  3.  The relevant NHS body that inherited Llandough Hospital records, now part of Cardiff and Vale University Health Board.\n  4.  Coroner's records, if an inquest was held.\n\nIn 1990, Llandough Hospital was still an NHS hospital managed through the local health authority system. This was under the South Glamorgan Health Authority, which was responsible for hospitals in the Cardiff and Vale area before NHS trusts were created in the early 1990s and now the Cardiff & Vale University Health Board.\n\nThey can be contacted here:\n\nHealth Records - Cardiff and Vale University Health Board \n\nGP records are generally retained for a long period. Under current NHS records management guidance, GP records are typically kept for 10 years after a patient's death before being destroyed so these records would be out of scope.\n\nI have asked our registration team to search both patients and there are no records found for either patients due to the time elapsed.\n\nFurther comments have been provided below in red for reference.\n\nI hope that this is an acceptable response.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nTim Knifton, MSc Gwybodeg Iechyd/Health Informatics\nRheolwr Rheoli Gwybodaeth/Information Governance Manager\nPartneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru/NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership\ne-bost/ email: [email redacted] \nRhyngrwyd • Internet: https://nwssp.nhs.wales/\nTwitter: @nwssp \n\nMae PCGC yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn y Gymraeg neu Saesneg.\nNWSSP welcomes correspondence in Welsh or English.\n\n'Mae'r e-bost hwn ac unrhyw ffeiliau sy'n cyd-fynd gyda’r e-bost hwn, ddim ond ar gyfer defnydd priodol y derbynnydd/ion, a gall gynnwys gwybodaeth sy'n freintiedig, yn gyfrinachol neu eithriedig rhag cael ei ddatgelu.

Rather, I would like to establish whether an adequate search was undertaken before the conclusion was reached.\n\nYour latest response states that the Medical Examiner Service would not hold “any records whatsoever” or have “any knowledge” of these patients. Given that the deaths occurred in 1983 and 1990, before the establishment of the current Medical Examiner Service, I would be grateful if the internal review could specifically establish whether the search extended beyond current Medical Examiner records to any relevant predecessor, legacy or transferred records. This would have not been something that the medical examiner would have been able to complete as explained above.\n\nIn particular, could the review please confirm:\n\n  1.  What records and information systems were searched; primary care registration system\n  2.  Whether any legacy or predecessor records relating to the medical examination or certification of deaths were considered; No legacy records going back to 1983/1990 would be considered as the service concentrates on independent scrutiny of deaths that were not referred to a coroner in the present day\n  3.  Whether records relating to Llandough Hospital, where William Buckler is recorded as having died in approximately May 1990, are held by the Medical Examiner Service, NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership, another NHS body, or an archive to which you have access or knowledge; As explained above\n  4.  Whether any records concerning referrals to a coroner, inquests, post-mortems or other investigations into these deaths would have been held separately from Medical Examiner records;\n  5.  Whether the possibility of records having been transferred to an archive or successor organisation was considered; This would have been completed under the old Health Authority and retained for the specific time period under records management policies.\n  6.  Whether the statement that no records are held means that no relevant records are held by the South Wales Central Medical Examiner Service specifically, or that searches have established that no such records are held anywhere within NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership; and Medical Examiner was not established until 2019, historic records going back to the 1980s and 1990s would not form part of the remit of the service.\n  7.  If the records are not held by your organisation, whether you can identify the appropriate current custodian or archive for any surviving historical records. Explained above\n\nFor clarity, the individuals concerned are:\n\n  *   William (Billy) Buckler – died at Llandough Hospital on or about 29 May 1990, aged 41; and\n  *   Mary Doreen Williams – born 10 August 1913; death registered in March 1983, South Glamorgan, Vol. 28, p. 3029.\n\nI would be grateful if this could be treated as a formal internal review rather than simply a further general enquiry.\n\nI would also ask that the review be undertaken by someone who was not responsible for the original response, where practicable.\n\nMy purpose is to establish a reliable documentary record and, in particular, to distinguish between:\n\n(a) records which do not exist;\n\n(b) records which once existed but have been destroyed;\n\n(c) records which exist but are held by another organisation; and\n\n(d) records which are held within NHS Wales or a predecessor organisation but were not identified by the original search.\n\nI would be grateful for confirmation of the review and, where applicable, the relevant FOI reference number.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Fri, 21 Aug 2026, 04:33 SouthWalesCentral MedicalExaminersOffice (Gen126594),  > wrote:\nGood morning\n\nWe would not hold any records whatsoever or have any knowledge of these patients.\n\nMany thanks\n\nMichelle\n\n\n\n\n\nSwyddfa Ganolog De Cymru South Wales Central Office\n\nGwasanaeth Archwilio Meddygol Cymru Gyfan  All Wales Medical Examiners Service\n\nPartneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru  NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership\n\nFfon Telephone:  [phone redacted]\n\nE-bost  Email: [email redacted] \n\nGwefan Website:  https://nwssp.nhs.wales/ourservices/medical-examiner-service/\n\n\n\nMae Partneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn y Gymraeg.\n\nNHS Wales Shared Services welcomes correspondence in Welsh.\n\nDw i ddim yn deall Cymraeg.

Unless there is something I am misunderstanding? I want to be sure I\ndon't overlook any traces of evidence.\n\nIn particular, as I understand the position you have confirmed, the\nfollowing remain separate questions outside the scope of the current\nsystems search:\n\n   - whether hospital records relating to William Buckler's admission and\n   death at Llandough Hospital on or about 29 May 1990 were created and, if\n   so, whether any survive with Cardiff and Vale University Health Board or an\n   archive;\n   - whether equivalent medical, hospital or health-authority records\n   relating to Mary Doreen Williams were created and, if so, where any\n   surviving records are held;\n   - whether either death was referred to a coroner or involved a\n   post-mortem, inquest or other separate investigation;\n   - whether any relevant records formerly held by the South Glamorgan\n   Health Authority were transferred to a successor body or archive; and\n   - where records no longer survive, whether they were destroyed under an\n   applicable retention and disposal process.\n\nI appreciate that these matters may fall outside your office's remit and I\nam not asking you to undertake those searches yourself. I simply want to\nensure that the documentary record accurately distinguishes *\"no records\nfound on the systems searched\"* from *\"no historical records ever existed\nor survive anywhere within the former health-authority system.\"*\n\nIf that distinction is correct, I would be grateful for your confirmation.\nI will then pursue the surviving-record and archival questions with the\nappropriate successor bodies.\n\nThank you again for your assistance.\n\nKind regards,\n\n*Sion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)* *Royal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare\nProfessional and Life Member*\n\nOn Mon, 24 Aug 2026, 05:42 Tim Knifton (NWSSP - Information Governance), <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler,\n>\n>\n>\n> You’re very welcome and glad I could be of some further assistance.\n>\n>\n>\n> As requested, reading the points as set out in your email below, this is\n> the correct position.\n>\n>\n>\n> Yours sincerely,\n>\n>\n>\n> *Tim Knifton, MSc Gwybodeg Iechyd/Health Informatics*\n>\n> *Rheolwr Rheoli Gwybodaeth/**Information Governance Manager*\n>\n> Partneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru/NHS Wales Shared Services\n> Partnership\n>\n> e-bost/ email: *[email redacted] <[email redacted]>*\n>\n> Rhyngrwyd • Internet:* https://nwssp.nhs.wales/\n> <https://nwssp.nhs.wales/>*\n>\n> Twitter: @nwssp\n>\n>\n>\n> Mae PCGC yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn y Gymraeg neu Saesneg.\n>\n> NWSSP welcomes correspondence in Welsh or English.\n>\n>\n>\n> *'Mae'r e-bost hwn ac unrhyw ffeiliau sy'n cyd-fynd gyda’r e-bost hwn,\n> ddim ond ar gyfer defnydd priodol y derbynnydd/ion, a gall gynnwys\n> gwybodaeth sy'n freintiedig, yn gyfrinachol neu eithriedig rhag cael ei\n> ddatgelu.

Thank you for your detailed response and for taking the time to clarify the position. I have passed my concerned to the National Crime Agency too.\n\nI appreciate the confirmation that the All Wales Medical Examiner Service did not exist at the time of either death and that, consequently, it would not hold predecessor records relating to deaths in 1983 or 1990.\n\nI am also grateful that you asked the registration team to conduct a search and confirmed that no records were found for either individual on the systems searched.\n\nFor the purposes of maintaining an accurate documentary record, I would be grateful if you could clarify one final point. My objective is to distinguish clearly between records which were never held by the present organisation, records which once existed but have since been destroyed, and records which may survive with a successor body or archive.\n\nAs I understand your response, the position is as follows:\n\n  *   the Medical Examiner Service holds no relevant historical records because the service was not established until 2019;\n  *   the primary care registration system and the records searched by your registration team contain no records for either William Buckler or Mary Doreen Williams;\n  *   any original hospital or health-authority records relating to these deaths would have fallen under the former South Glamorgan Health Authority and its applicable records-management arrangements;\n  *   surviving hospital records relating to William Buckler's death at Llandough Hospital may therefore be held by, or have passed to, Cardiff and Vale University Health Board or another successor/archive repository;\n  *   records relating to any coroner referral, post-mortem or inquest, if such events occurred, may have been held separately; and\n  *   GP records may have been destroyed under applicable retention arrangements, although the present search has not identified a specific destruction record for either individual.\n\nIf that is an accurate summary of your position, no further action is required from your office. I would simply be grateful for confirmation, particularly that the statement that no records were found does not amount to confirmation that no historical records ever existed elsewhere within the former South Glamorgan Health Authority system.\n\nThank you again for clarifying the historical position and for identifying Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, Glamorgan Archives and the coroner's records as the more appropriate avenues for further enquiry.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Mon, 24 Aug 2026, 04:56 Tim Knifton (NWSSP - Information Governance),  > wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler\n\nThank you for your email. As the main contact for Freedom of Information, I have not seen your request previously but I will explain what I can in regards to your original request:\n\nI am writing to enquire whether any records or references are held in relation to the following historical deaths that occurred in the Cardiff & Vale / Llandough area:\n\n1. William (Billy) Buckler\n   - Died at Llandough Hospital on or about 29 May 1990, aged 41\n   - Reported cause: heart attack\n\n2. Mary Doreen Williams\n   - Born 10 August 1913\n   - Death registered March 1983, South Glamorgan (Vol 28, Page 3029)\n\nAlthough these pre-date the current Medical Examiner Service, I would be grateful if you could advise whether any legacy records, referrals, or related documentation exist, or direct me to the appropriate archive or department that may hold such information.\n\nThe All Wales Medical Examiner Service was introduced on a non-statutory basis in 2019. It operated across Wales to provide independent scrutiny of deaths that were not referred to a coroner so deaths in 1983 and 1990 would not apply in this case. The service became statutory on 9 September 2024, when the death certification reforms came into force in England and Wales. From that date, independent scrutiny by a Medical Examiner became a legal requirement before registration of all non-coronial deaths. Therefore, for deaths in 1983/1990, there would have been no Medical Examiner Service. Death certification would have been carried out by the attending doctor, with referrals made to the coroner where required under the rules that existed at the time. The Medical Examiner system only arrived many decades later.\n\nIf both deaths occurred in Secondary Care, Hospitals do maintain records of deaths that occurred in their facilities, but these are not generally public records.\n\nThe official legal record of a death is the death certificate registered with the local registrar and held by the General Register Office (GRO). In Wales, you can obtain copies of death certificates dating back before 1983 if the death was registered.  Hospital medical records are usually retained under NHS records management policies and may still exist for deaths in 1983, but access is restricted because they contain confidential medical information.\n\nIf you are researching a specific death from 1990 at Llandough Hospital, possible sources are:\n\n\n  1.  Death certificate from the General Register Office.\n  2.  Glamorgan Archives for historical NHS administrative records.\n  3.  The relevant NHS body that inherited Llandough Hospital records, now part of Cardiff and Vale University Health Board.\n  4.  Coroner's records, if an inquest was held.\n\nIn 1990, Llandough Hospital was still an NHS hospital managed through the local health authority system. This was under the South Glamorgan Health Authority, which was responsible for hospitals in the Cardiff and Vale area before NHS trusts were created in the early 1990s and now the Cardiff & Vale University Health Board.\n\nThey can be contacted here:\n\nHealth Records - Cardiff and Vale University Health Board \n\nGP records are generally retained for a long period. Under current NHS records management guidance, GP records are typically kept for 10 years after a patient's death before being destroyed so these records would be out of scope.\n\nI have asked our registration team to search both patients and there are no records found for either patients due to the time elapsed.\n\nFurther comments have been provided below in red for reference.\n\nI hope that this is an acceptable response.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nTim Knifton, MSc Gwybodeg Iechyd/Health Informatics\nRheolwr Rheoli Gwybodaeth/Information Governance Manager\nPartneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru/NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership\ne-bost/ email: [email redacted] \nRhyngrwyd • Internet: https://nwssp.nhs.wales/\nTwitter: @nwssp \n\nMae PCGC yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn y Gymraeg neu Saesneg.\nNWSSP welcomes correspondence in Welsh or English.\n\n'Mae'r e-bost hwn ac unrhyw ffeiliau sy'n cyd-fynd gyda’r e-bost hwn, ddim ond ar gyfer defnydd priodol y derbynnydd/ion, a gall gynnwys gwybodaeth sy'n freintiedig, yn gyfrinachol neu eithriedig rhag cael ei ddatgelu.

Rather, I would like to establish whether an adequate search was undertaken before the conclusion was reached.\n\nYour latest response states that the Medical Examiner Service would not hold “any records whatsoever” or have “any knowledge” of these patients. Given that the deaths occurred in 1983 and 1990, before the establishment of the current Medical Examiner Service, I would be grateful if the internal review could specifically establish whether the search extended beyond current Medical Examiner records to any relevant predecessor, legacy or transferred records. This would have not been something that the medical examiner would have been able to complete as explained above.\n\nIn particular, could the review please confirm:\n\n  1.  What records and information systems were searched; primary care registration system\n  2.  Whether any legacy or predecessor records relating to the medical examination or certification of deaths were considered; No legacy records going back to 1983/1990 would be considered as the service concentrates on independent scrutiny of deaths that were not referred to a coroner in the present day\n  3.  Whether records relating to Llandough Hospital, where William Buckler is recorded as having died in approximately May 1990, are held by the Medical Examiner Service, NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership, another NHS body, or an archive to which you have access or knowledge; As explained above\n  4.  Whether any records concerning referrals to a coroner, inquests, post-mortems or other investigations into these deaths would have been held separately from Medical Examiner records;\n  5.  Whether the possibility of records having been transferred to an archive or successor organisation was considered; This would have been completed under the old Health Authority and retained for the specific time period under records management policies.\n  6.  Whether the statement that no records are held means that no relevant records are held by the South Wales Central Medical Examiner Service specifically, or that searches have established that no such records are held anywhere within NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership; and Medical Examiner was not established until 2019, historic records going back to the 1980s and 1990s would not form part of the remit of the service.\n  7.  If the records are not held by your organisation, whether you can identify the appropriate current custodian or archive for any surviving historical records. Explained above\n\nFor clarity, the individuals concerned are:\n\n  *   William (Billy) Buckler – died at Llandough Hospital on or about 29 May 1990, aged 41; and\n  *   Mary Doreen Williams – born 10 August 1913; death registered in March 1983, South Glamorgan, Vol. 28, p. 3029.\n\nI would be grateful if this could be treated as a formal internal review rather than simply a further general enquiry.\n\nI would also ask that the review be undertaken by someone who was not responsible for the original response, where practicable.\n\nMy purpose is to establish a reliable documentary record and, in particular, to distinguish between:\n\n(a) records which do not exist;\n\n(b) records which once existed but have been destroyed;\n\n(c) records which exist but are held by another organisation; and\n\n(d) records which are held within NHS Wales or a predecessor organisation but were not identified by the original search.\n\nI would be grateful for confirmation of the review and, where applicable, the relevant FOI reference number.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Fri, 21 Aug 2026, 04:33 SouthWalesCentral MedicalExaminersOffice (Gen126594),  > wrote:\nGood morning\n\nWe would not hold any records whatsoever or have any knowledge of these patients.\n\nMany thanks\n\nMichelle\n\n\n\n\n\nSwyddfa Ganolog De Cymru South Wales Central Office\n\nGwasanaeth Archwilio Meddygol Cymru Gyfan  All Wales Medical Examiners Service\n\nPartneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru  NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership\n\nFfon Telephone:  [phone redacted]\n\nE-bost  Email: [email redacted] \n\nGwefan Website:  https://nwssp.nhs.wales/ourservices/medical-examiner-service/\n\n\n\nMae Partneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn y Gymraeg.\n\nNHS Wales Shared Services welcomes correspondence in Welsh.\n\nDw i ddim yn deall Cymraeg.

Thank you for your detailed response and for taking the\ntime to clarify the position. I have passed my concerned to the National\nCrime Agency too.\n\nI appreciate the confirmation that the All Wales Medical Examiner Service\ndid not exist at the time of either death and that, consequently, it would\nnot hold predecessor records relating to deaths in 1983 or 1990.\n\nI am also grateful that you asked the registration team to conduct a search\nand confirmed that no records were found for either individual on the\nsystems searched.\n\nFor the purposes of maintaining an accurate documentary record, I would be\ngrateful if you could clarify one final point. My objective is to\ndistinguish clearly between records which were never held by the present\norganisation, records which once existed but have since been destroyed, and\nrecords which may survive with a successor body or archive.\n\nAs I understand your response, the position is as follows:\n\n   - the Medical Examiner Service holds no relevant historical records\n   because the service was not established until 2019;\n   - the primary care registration system and the records searched by your\n   registration team contain no records for either William Buckler or Mary\n   Doreen Williams;\n   - any original hospital or health-authority records relating to these\n   deaths would have fallen under the former South Glamorgan Health Authority\n   and its applicable records-management arrangements;\n   - surviving hospital records relating to William Buckler's death at\n   Llandough Hospital may therefore be held by, or have passed to, Cardiff and\n   Vale University Health Board or another successor/archive repository;\n   - records relating to any coroner referral, post-mortem or inquest, if\n   such events occurred, may have been held separately; and\n   - GP records may have been destroyed under applicable retention\n   arrangements, although the present search has not identified a specific\n   destruction record for either individual.\n\nIf that is an accurate summary of your position, no further action is\nrequired from your office. I would simply be grateful for confirmation,\nparticularly that the statement that no records were found does not amount\nto confirmation that no historical records ever existed elsewhere within\nthe former South Glamorgan Health Authority system.\n\nThank you again for clarifying the historical position and for identifying\nCardiff and Vale University Health Board, Glamorgan Archives and the\ncoroner's records as the more appropriate avenues for further enquiry.\n\nKind regards,\n\n*Sion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)*\n*Royal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member*\n\nOn Mon, 24 Aug 2026, 04:56 Tim Knifton (NWSSP - Information Governance), <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your email.

As the main contact for Freedom of Information, I have not seen your request previously but I will explain what I can in regards to your original request:\n\nI am writing to enquire whether any records or references are held in relation to the following historical deaths that occurred in the Cardiff & Vale / Llandough area:\n\n1. William (Billy) Buckler\n   - Died at Llandough Hospital on or about 29 May 1990, aged 41\n   - Reported cause: heart attack\n\n2. Mary Doreen Williams\n   - Born 10 August 1913\n   - Death registered March 1983, South Glamorgan (Vol 28, Page 3029)\n\nAlthough these pre-date the current Medical Examiner Service, I would be grateful if you could advise whether any legacy records, referrals, or related documentation exist, or direct me to the appropriate archive or department that may hold such information.\n\nThe All Wales Medical Examiner Service was introduced on a non-statutory basis in 2019. It operated across Wales to provide independent scrutiny of deaths that were not referred to a coroner so deaths in 1983 and 1990 would not apply in this case. The service became statutory on 9 September 2024, when the death certification reforms came into force in England and Wales. From that date, independent scrutiny by a Medical Examiner became a legal requirement before registration of all non-coronial deaths. Therefore, for deaths in 1983/1990, there would have been no Medical Examiner Service. Death certification would have been carried out by the attending doctor, with referrals made to the coroner where required under the rules that existed at the time. The Medical Examiner system only arrived many decades later.\n\nIf both deaths occurred in Secondary Care, Hospitals do maintain records of deaths that occurred in their facilities, but these are not generally public records.\n\nThe official legal record of a death is the death certificate registered with the local registrar and held by the General Register Office (GRO). In Wales, you can obtain copies of death certificates dating back before 1983 if the death was registered.  Hospital medical records are usually retained under NHS records management policies and may still exist for deaths in 1983, but access is restricted because they contain confidential medical information.\n\nIf you are researching a specific death from 1990 at Llandough Hospital, possible sources are:\n\n\n  1.  Death certificate from the General Register Office.\n  2.  Glamorgan Archives for historical NHS administrative records.\n  3.  The relevant NHS body that inherited Llandough Hospital records, now part of Cardiff and Vale University Health Board.\n  4.  Coroner's records, if an inquest was held.\n\nIn 1990, Llandough Hospital was still an NHS hospital managed through the local health authority system. This was under the South Glamorgan Health Authority, which was responsible for hospitals in the Cardiff and Vale area before NHS trusts were created in the early 1990s and now the Cardiff & Vale University Health Board.\n\nThey can be contacted here:\n\nHealth Records - Cardiff and Vale University Health Board<https://cavuhb.nhs.wales/our-services/health-records/>\n\nGP records are generally retained for a long period. Under current NHS records management guidance, GP records are typically kept for 10 years after a patient's death before being destroyed so these records would be out of scope.\n\nI have asked our registration team to search both patients and there are no records found for either patients due to the time elapsed.\n\nFurther comments have been provided below in red for reference.\n\nI hope that this is an acceptable response.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nTim Knifton, MSc Gwybodeg Iechyd/Health Informatics\nRheolwr Rheoli Gwybodaeth/Information Governance Manager\nPartneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru/NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership\ne-bost/ email: [email redacted]<[email redacted]>\nRhyngrwyd • Internet: https://nwssp.nhs.wales/\nTwitter: @nwssp<[email redacted]>\n\nMae PCGC yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn y Gymraeg neu Saesneg.\nNWSSP welcomes correspondence in Welsh or English.\n\n'Mae'r e-bost hwn ac unrhyw ffeiliau sy'n cyd-fynd gyda’r e-bost hwn, ddim ond ar gyfer defnydd priodol y derbynnydd/ion, a gall gynnwys gwybodaeth sy'n freintiedig, yn gyfrinachol neu eithriedig rhag cael ei ddatgelu.

Rather, I would like to establish whether an adequate search was undertaken before the conclusion was reached.\n\nYour latest response states that the Medical Examiner Service would not hold “any records whatsoever” or have “any knowledge” of these patients. Given that the deaths occurred in 1983 and 1990, before the establishment of the current Medical Examiner Service, I would be grateful if the internal review could specifically establish whether the search extended beyond current Medical Examiner records to any relevant predecessor, legacy or transferred records. This would have not been something that the medical examiner would have been able to complete as explained above.\n\nIn particular, could the review please confirm:\n\n  1.  What records and information systems were searched; primary care registration system\n  2.  Whether any legacy or predecessor records relating to the medical examination or certification of deaths were considered; No legacy records going back to 1983/1990 would be considered as the service concentrates on independent scrutiny of deaths that were not referred to a coroner in the present day\n  3.  Whether records relating to Llandough Hospital, where William Buckler is recorded as having died in approximately May 1990, are held by the Medical Examiner Service, NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership, another NHS body, or an archive to which you have access or knowledge; As explained above\n  4.  Whether any records concerning referrals to a coroner, inquests, post-mortems or other investigations into these deaths would have been held separately from Medical Examiner records;\n  5.  Whether the possibility of records having been transferred to an archive or successor organisation was considered; This would have been completed under the old Health Authority and retained for the specific time period under records management policies.\n  6.  Whether the statement that no records are held means that no relevant records are held by the South Wales Central Medical Examiner Service specifically, or that searches have established that no such records are held anywhere within NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership; and Medical Examiner was not established until 2019, historic records going back to the 1980s and 1990s would not form part of the remit of the service.\n  7.  If the records are not held by your organisation, whether you can identify the appropriate current custodian or archive for any surviving historical records. Explained above\n\nFor clarity, the individuals concerned are:\n\n  *   William (Billy) Buckler – died at Llandough Hospital on or about 29 May 1990, aged 41; and\n  *   Mary Doreen Williams – born 10 August 1913; death registered in March 1983, South Glamorgan, Vol. 28, p. 3029.\n\nI would be grateful if this could be treated as a formal internal review rather than simply a further general enquiry.\n\nI would also ask that the review be undertaken by someone who was not responsible for the original response, where practicable.\n\nMy purpose is to establish a reliable documentary record and, in particular, to distinguish between:\n\n(a) records which do not exist;\n\n(b) records which once existed but have been destroyed;\n\n(c) records which exist but are held by another organisation; and\n\n(d) records which are held within NHS Wales or a predecessor organisation but were not identified by the original search.\n\nI would be grateful for confirmation of the review and, where applicable, the relevant FOI reference number.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Fri, 21 Aug 2026, 04:33 SouthWalesCentral MedicalExaminersOffice (Gen126594), <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nGood morning\n\nWe would not hold any records whatsoever or have any knowledge of these patients.\n\nMany thanks\n\nMichelle\n\n\n\n\n\nSwyddfa Ganolog De Cymru South Wales Central Office\n\nGwasanaeth Archwilio Meddygol Cymru Gyfan  All Wales Medical Examiners Service\n\nPartneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru  NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership\n\nFfon Telephone:  [phone redacted]\n\nE-bost  Email: [email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n\nGwefan Website:  https://nwssp.nhs.wales/ourservices/medical-examiner-service/\n\n\n\nMae Partneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn y Gymraeg.\n\nNHS Wales Shared Services welcomes correspondence in Welsh.\n\nDw i ddim yn deall Cymraeg.

The account further describes\nquarrying on the Thomas-held land and an agreement under which the freehold\nwould eventually pass to the occupying family when quarrying ceased.\n\nI appreciate that this account requires verification against the original\ndocumentary record. I am therefore seeking to identify the relevant deeds,\nagreements, plans and subsequent title documents.\n1. Verification of specific DBDT catalogue entries\n\nPlease confirm the exact property description, parties and date of the\nfollowing catalogue entries, and, if possible, provide a digital copy or\nscan of the opening parties clause and any attached or marginal plan:\n\n   -\n\n   *DBDT10/19* – Lease (counterpart), described in the catalogue as\n   concerning land and messuages in Bute Street, Cardiff, from trustees of the\n   late Marquess of Bute to Mr Daniel Thomas, October 1850.\n   -\n\n   *DBDT10/20* – Agreement for a building lease of premises in Bute Town,\n   Cardiff, involving the same parties, June 1849.\n\nI understand from the catalogue descriptions that these items concern\nCardiff rather than Llandough. My purpose is to establish whether the *Daniel\nThomas named in these instruments can be identified sufficiently to\ndetermine whether he is the same individual later connected with the\nLlandough lime works and land interests*, or whether these are unrelated\ntransactions involving another person of the same name.\n\nPlease also advise whether either document contains information identifying\nDaniel Thomas by residence, occupation, estate, trusteeship or other\ndistinguishing details.\n2. Targeted search for a Bute–Daniel Thomas transaction at or near Llandough\n\nPlease search the catalogue descriptions and indexes available to Glamorgan\nArchives for any deed, conveyance, exchange, sale, transfer, lease,\nagreement, plan or related instrument involving:\n\n   - *Daniel Thomas*;\n   - *Alfred Thomas*;\n   - the *Marquess of Bute*;\n   - trustees of the Marquess of Bute;\n   - the *Bute Estate*;\n\nand land at or near:\n\n   - *Llandough*;\n   - *Great House Farm / Great House / Tŷ Mawr*;\n   - adjoining land or parcels that may subsequently have formed part of\n   the farm.\n\nI am particularly interested in transactions dating from approximately *1876\nto 1878*, but would be grateful for references to earlier or later\ndocuments where they form part of the same chain of title.\n\nIn particular, I am seeking evidence capable of confirming or disproving\nwhether any defined parcel of land was conveyed by the Bute Estate to\nDaniel Thomas.\n3. Quarrying, lime works and any conditional reversion or transfer\n\nPlease identify any relevant records concerning land at Llandough or Great\nHouse Farm that refer to:\n\n   - quarrying;\n   - quarries or quarry land;\n   - lime works or lime kilns;\n   - mineral rights;\n   - removal of quarrying machinery;\n   - reduction or cessation of rent as land was quarried;\n   - termination of quarrying;\n   - a future conveyance, reversion, surrender or transfer of a freehold\n   interest when quarrying ceased.\n\nThe particular issue I am investigating is whether an agreement existed\nunder which occupation or ownership of a defined parcel was intended to\nchange when quarrying operations came to an end.\n4. Daniel Thomas, Alfred Thomas and the Llandough lime works\n\nPlease identify any documents linking *Daniel Thomas*, or his son *Alfred\nThomas (later Lord Pontypridd)*, with:\n\n   - land at Llandough;\n   - the Llandough lime works or lime kilns;\n   - quarrying operations;\n   - Great House Farm or adjoining agricultural land;\n   - any freehold or leasehold interest in the area.\n\nI would be particularly interested in estate papers, correspondence,\nconveyances, wills, probate-related estate records, rentals, rent books,\nabstracts of title and plans that may trace what became of any Daniel\nThomas interest after his death or thereafter.\n5. Subsequent title and occupation\n\nPlease identify any abstracts of title, estate maps, conveyances,\ncorrespondence, tenancy records or other material that may assist in\nestablishing:\n\n   1. what happened to any freehold interest held by Daniel Thomas or his\n   estate;\n   2. whether such an interest was ever conveyed, surrendered or\n   transferred back to the Bute Estate or another party;\n   3. whether the Bute Estate later reacquired any relevant parcel;\n   4. whether later parties, including *Mountjoy Ltd* or *Western Ground\n   Rents Ltd*, acquired title to land previously held by Daniel Thomas or\n   his successors;\n   5. the basis on which later tenancies described as covering the \"whole\"\n   of Great House Farm were granted.\n\nI am also interested in any material linking these title questions with the\noccupation of the farm by the *Williams family*.\n6. Plans and parcel boundaries\n\nA separate line of research concerns the possibility that historic legal\nboundaries passed through or between different parts of the Great House\nFarm complex.\n\nAccordingly, please identify any:\n\n   - estate maps;\n   - conveyance plans;\n   - tenancy plans;\n   - quarry plans;\n   - large-scale plans;\n   - boundary plans;\n   - valuation plans;\n\nthat show Great House Farm, the farmhouse, garden, stables, outbuildings or\nadjoining parcels.\n\nI am particularly interested in documents that could establish whether\ndifferent parts of the historic building complex fell within different\nlegal parcels.\n\nI appreciate that some of these requests may require staff research beyond\na standard enquiry. My immediate priority is to obtain *the relevant\ncatalogue references and confirmation of what material exists*.

I am attempting to reconstruct and\nforensically assess the historical circumstances surrounding her death in\n1983, and there is information concerning the circumstances before and\naround her death which I am seeking to reconcile against the surviving\nofficial documentary record.\n\nCould you therefore please confirm whether your statement that you are\n\"unable to locate any details\" means only that neither individual appears\nin the records or computerised/indexed system currently available to your\noffice, or whether your office is able positively to state that neither\ndeath was ever referred to the coroner?\n\nIn particular, if you are able to clarify, I would be grateful to know\nwhether the absence of a record in your system excludes, or does not\nexclude, the historical existence of:\n\n   - a report of the death to a coroner;\n   - a preliminary coroner's enquiry;\n   - a post-mortem examination;\n   - an inquest;\n   - correspondence with the police, hospital or other authority;\n   - a case file or register subsequently transferred to an archive or\n   destroyed in accordance with an applicable retention policy.\n\nI appreciate that you may not hold the historical records themselves. I am\nnot asking you to speculate about the circumstances of either death. I am\nsimply seeking to ensure that I correctly understand the evidential\nsignificance of the negative search result before proceeding to the archive.\n\nIf possible, I would also be grateful if you could confirm the name of the\ncoroner jurisdiction or office responsible for Llandough/Llandough Hospital\nin March 1983, when Mary Doreen Williams died, and whether you know which\nbody would have inherited or transferred that jurisdiction's surviving\nrecords.\n\nFor completeness, if there are any records held off-system, legacy indexes,\npaper registers, accession records or transfer information which are not\nsearchable through the system you checked, I would be grateful if you could\nlet me know whether those exist and who now holds them.\n\nI appreciate your assistance.

You star!\n\nPlease ensure the record isn't destroyed.\n\nAll I have for my nan is the attached.\n\nCould you tell me any more about March 1983 and if there's any anomalies or\nanything out of the ordinary?\n\nI have a statement from my grandmother about her title deeds going missing\nfrom her home by an unsavory character. And then she died in the 2 week\nwindow she will have had to challenge her land being registered in another\nparties name, at the land registry.\n\nHer title was merged with the adjacent plot of land in that timeframe too.\nWhich was also possessed from our family with equal contestability. The\nland in question has already had 20 homes developed on it (Church View\nClose, Llandough) and is now proceeding to flatten woodland and develop 133\nhomes (planning approved) with no mention of title chain defect. And I\nguess the council for Llandough refuses to respond to the concern I'm\nraising because of a bias in the project to develop homes on our land. Our\nownership claim has never been estinguished by a court. Their ownership\nclaim not ruled on either. It's our land since 1667. They have just awarded\nthemselves possession of our land in their courts because my grandmother\nwas unable to present her title deed. A public library copy went missing\ntoo. But the court ruling was ajourned.\n\nI'm horrified at the council and MP. The long standing council clerk for\nLlandough recently retired, I guess in relation to this. I was also lied to\nfor months by various departments like CADW.  This is a genuine concern.\nAnd matter of public and national interest as they are also concealing the\nfact of our lands archelogical and hostorical significants. Including a\nRoman villa, 1,026 medieval burials and grange, a monestry too. And prior\nto our home being abruptly demolished with all our evidence inside, which\nCADW and the council (who failed to do a demolish stop order) looked away,\nMarconi stayed with us while inventing radio and Peerless Jim fought his\nfirst fight in our barn and much else.\n\nWe are a very dispossessed family and the subject of decades of crimes\nbeing committed against us. Proceedural unfairness, court mistakes. But it\nreally is a matter of public and national interest. And police dismissed\ninvestigating the 20 years of evidence I've collected within 3 hours of\nreceiving it.\n\nMy family all remain too terrified to speak up or out. After everyone who\nhas challenged the occupation of my ancestral birthland and childhood home\nhas died. My fathers death, conveniently before planning was approved on\nthe 20 houses.\n\nI would encourage you not to keep this information to yourself.\n\nI'm a bona fide war veteran and left my military career with full honours.\nI finished my 22 years in Oath in 2024 and my last employed is the Vale of\nGlamorgan council under which I provided adult care.\n\nI am sorry to burden you with all this, but seeing as your one of the few\nwhos provided me any help or answers in my enquiry, I take the opportunity\nto entrust this information to you.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\nBuckler/ Williams Family Estate\nhttps://bucklerfamily.estate\n\n\nOn Fri, 21 Aug 2026, 05:11 Denham, Karen (Registrars), <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Hi Sion\n>\n> Thank you for your email regarding William Buckler and Mary Doreen\n> Williams death certificates.

Whether your office has any record or index indicating that either William (Billy) Buckler, who died at Llandough Hospital on or about 29 May 1990, or Mary Doreen Williams, whose death was registered in March 1983 in South Glamorgan (Vol. 28, p. 3029), was reported to or dealt with by the coroner;\n  2.  If either death was the subject of a coroner's investigation, whether an inquest, post-mortem examination or other coroner's investigation took place;\n  3.  Whether any historical record relating to either death remains in the custody of the coroner's service, or whether such records have been transferred to another archive, authority or successor body;\n  4.  If records exist but cannot be disclosed directly, what procedure is available for a descendant or other interested person to establish the basic factual information concerning the case;\n  5.  If your office has no record whatsoever of either death, whether that means that no coroner's record exists, or simply that the surviving records are no longer held by your office.\n\nI am particularly interested in establishing the documentary chain rather than necessarily seeking disclosure of confidential medical information. A confirmation that a death was, or was not, referred to the coroner would itself be useful.\n\nIf you are not the appropriate office to answer these historical-record questions, I would be grateful if you could identify the relevant archive, successor body or other custodian to whom I should direct the enquiry.\n\nThank you again for your assistance.\n\nRegards,\n\n\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Fri, 21 Aug 2026, 04:33 Coroner Admin,  > wrote:\nGood morning, Mr Buckler\nThank you for your e-mail dated 20/08/2026.\n\nAlthough appointed and paid for by local councils, the coroner is not a local government officer but holds office under the Crown.\n\nCoroners are not designated as public authorities under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and therefore their records are not subject to the information access regime of this Act.\n\nPlease let me know if I can be of further assistance.\nKind Regards\nBev Morgan\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler  >\nSent: 20 August 2026 20:34\nTo: Coroner Admin  >\nSubject: FOI / Records Request – Deaths of William (Billy) Buckler (1990) and Mary Doreen Williams (1983)\n\nDear Coroner’s Office,\n\nI am writing under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and as an interested person to request any records held by the South Wales Central Coroner’s Service relating to the following two deaths:\n\n1.

The land and subsequent development\n\nThe land concerned is the former Great House Farm / Ty Mawr site at\nLlandough.\n\nThe site was subsequently developed for residential use. Planning and\nassociated administrative decisions were therefore made in circumstances in\nwhich ownership of the relevant land appears to have been treated as\nsufficiently established for those purposes.\n\nI am notifying the Council because documentary evidence now assembled\nappears to raise a material question as to whether the historical title\nposition was in fact conclusively established, and whether that question\nwas adequately identified, examined and recorded within the Council's\nadministrative and planning records.\n2. Potential title-chain discrepancy\n\nThe documentary record presently available to me indicates a historical\ndispute concerning the land involving my grandmother and the\nWilliams/Buckler family on one side and BP-related entities on the other.\n\nMy understanding of the available records is that:\n\n   - proceedings in 1974 did not result in a final judicial determination\n   conclusively establishing the underlying title in the manner subsequently\n   assumed;\n   - a further hearing listed for *31 October 1974* did not proceed\n   substantively;\n   - the land was subsequently registered in the name of BP-related\n   entities around *1982*;\n   - my grandmother died in *1983*, without, on the evidence presently\n   available to me, a final judicial determination of the underlying ownership\n   dispute or compensation resolving the family's claim;\n   - the subsequent *1987 Court of Appeal proceedings, BP Properties Ltd v\n   Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2*, did not, in my assessment, constitute a\n   comprehensive adjudication of every underlying historical title question\n   now arising from the documentary record.\n\nI emphasise that I am *not asking the Council to determine the civil title\nitself*. Rather, I am asking whether the Council has properly established\nwhat was actually determined by the courts, what remained disputed, what\ndocumentary basis was relied upon for treating title as settled, and\nwhether that distinction was properly reflected in its own records and\ndecision-making.\n\nThat distinction is important.\n3. Documentary evidence\n\nI have assembled documentary material concerning the historical title\nchain, court proceedings, registration history, conveyances and associated\nrecords, together with a chronological record of notifications and\nresponses.\n\nThe core documentary evidence can be supplied to the Council immediately.\n\nSome of the underlying material and references have also been raised in\nprevious correspondence with the Council and other public bodies. I\ntherefore request that this notification be considered alongside the\nrelevant material already held on Council files, rather than treated as an\nisolated new allegation.\n4. Authorities previously notified\n\nThe matter has previously been raised with, among others:\n\n   - the Planning Department — from 31 January 2026 and subsequently;\n   - the Council's FOI / Information Governance function, including case\n   *00210772*;\n   - Councillor George Carroll — through multiple contacts between February\n   and July 2026;\n   - Corporate Complaints / the Monitoring Officer — including\n   correspondence dated 27 July 2026 and the determination dated 12 August\n   2026;\n   - Cadw and the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments\n   of Wales (RCAHMW);\n   - other public bodies involved in the continuing documentary and\n   evidential trail.\n\nI am concerned that the substantive governance question identified above\nhas not yet been independently addressed.\n5. Matters requiring independent examination\n\nIn particular, I request that the Council establish:\n\n   1.\n\n   *Whether the historical title dispute was ever conclusively determined\n   by a competent court*, distinguishing between orders concerning\n   possession, proceedings concerning particular issues, and an actual final\n   determination of the underlying title.\n   2.\n\n   *What documentary evidence the Council historically relied upon when\n   treating ownership of the relevant land as established* for planning,\n   development, conveyancing or other administrative purposes.\n   3.\n\n   *Whether the Council's planning and administrative records contain any\n   recognition of the historical dispute*, including any consideration of\n   competing title claims or unresolved matters affecting the identity or\n   ownership of the land.\n   4.\n\n   *Whether any independent review of these issues has previously been\n   undertaken*, and if so, by whom, on what terms, and with what\n   conclusions.\n   5.\n\n   *Whether any current Council officer involved in reviewing this\n   notification has previously participated materially in the decisions,\n   complaints, correspondence or investigations now under examination*,\n   and, if so, what arrangements will be made to ensure genuine independence.\n   6.\n\n   *Whether the Council considers that any governance, record-keeping,\n   planning or public-confidence issue remains outstanding*, irrespective\n   of the ultimate determination of civil title.\n\n6. Why independent examination is warranted\n\nThe fact that the land has subsequently been developed does not, by itself,\nresolve the historical documentary question.\n\nIf the evidence demonstrates that a material title issue was overlooked,\nmisunderstood or inadequately recorded, that may have implications\nextending beyond the original ownership dispute, including the accuracy and\nintegrity of public records and the basis upon which subsequent\nadministrative decisions were made.\n\nConversely, if the Council considers that the historical record\nconclusively resolves the matter, I ask that it identify *the specific\ndocumentary and judicial basis for that conclusion*.\n\nThat is why I am requesting an independent examination rather than asking\nindividual officers who have previously dealt with the matter simply to\nreaffirm earlier positions.\n7. Formal request\n\nI therefore formally request that the Council:\n\n*a.* acknowledge this notification and identify the officer or function\nresponsible for independently reviewing it;\n\n*b.* confirm how that review will be kept independent of officers who have\npreviously dealt substantively with the matter;\n\n*c.* identify the principal Council records and documentary evidence that\nwill be considered;\n\n*d.* determine whether the historical title issue described above has\npreviously been properly examined and recorded;\n\n*e.* identify any material governance or administrative issue that remains\noutstanding; and\n\n*f.* provide a written response setting out the process to be followed and\nthe anticipated timescale.\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, I am *not asking the Council to accept that\nfraud, unlawful dispossession or defective title has been established*. I\nam notifying the Council that documentary evidence appears to raise a\npotentially material question concerning the historical identity and/or\ntitle to land upon which subsequent development took place, and I am asking\nthe Council to establish whether that question has ever been properly\nexamined.\n\nIf the Council considers that determination of the underlying civil title\nfalls outside its functions, I would nevertheless ask it to address the\nseparate governance question: *whether its own historical records and\ndecision-making properly identified and dealt with the title issue on the\nevidence available to it.*\n\nThis is a *formal governance and integrity notification*, not an FOI or EIR\nrequest.\n\nI would be grateful for written acknowledgement and confirmation of the\nprocess and timescale for an independent determination.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\n*Sion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)*\nRoyal Signals — Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional\nLife Member"},{"id":"gm-1a0236015e69de3d","subject":"RE: Application for copy death certificates – William Buckler (1990) and Mary Doreen Williams (1983)","name":"RE: Application for copy death certificates – William Buckler (1990) and Mary Doreen Williams (1983)","date":"2026-08-21T08:11:30Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-1a0236015e69de3d.txt","threadSlug":"gt-1a016601f861000b-application-for-copy-death-certificates-william-buckler-1990-and-mary-doreen-williams-1983","scopeTopics":["glamorgan"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["glamorgan"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-1a016601f861000b","direction":"received","from":"Denham, Karen (Registrars)","institutions":[{"id":"glamorgan","name":"Glamorgan Archives"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-1a0236015e69de3d.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Hi Sion\nThank you for your email regarding William Buckler and Mary Doreen Williams death certificates.

Rather, I would like to establish whether an adequate search was undertaken before the conclusion was reached.\n\nYour latest response states that the Medical Examiner Service would not hold “any records whatsoever” or have “any knowledge” of these patients. Given that the deaths occurred in 1983 and 1990, before the establishment of the current Medical Examiner Service, I would be grateful if the internal review could specifically establish whether the search extended beyond current Medical Examiner records to any relevant predecessor, legacy or transferred records.\n\nIn particular, could the review please confirm:\n\n  1.  What records and information systems were searched;\n\n  2.  Whether any legacy or predecessor records relating to the medical examination or certification of deaths were considered;\n\n  3.  Whether records relating to Llandough Hospital, where William Buckler is recorded as having died in approximately May 1990, are held by the Medical Examiner Service, NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership, another NHS body, or an archive to which you have access or knowledge;\n\n  4.  Whether any records concerning referrals to a coroner, inquests, post-mortems or other investigations into these deaths would have been held separately from Medical Examiner records;\n\n  5.  Whether the possibility of records having been transferred to an archive or successor organisation was considered;\n\n  6.  Whether the statement that no records are held means that no relevant records are held by the South Wales Central Medical Examiner Service specifically, or that searches have established that no such records are held anywhere within NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership; and\n\n  7.  If the records are not held by your organisation, whether you can identify the appropriate current custodian or archive for any surviving historical records.\n\nFor clarity, the individuals concerned are:\n\n  *   William (Billy) Buckler – died at Llandough Hospital on or about 29 May 1990, aged 41; and\n  *   Mary Doreen Williams – born 10 August 1913; death registered in March 1983, South Glamorgan, Vol. 28, p. 3029.\n\nI would be grateful if this could be treated as a formal internal review rather than simply a further general enquiry.\n\nI would also ask that the review be undertaken by someone who was not responsible for the original response, where practicable.\n\nMy purpose is to establish a reliable documentary record and, in particular, to distinguish between:\n\n(a) records which do not exist;\n\n(b) records which once existed but have been destroyed;\n\n(c) records which exist but are held by another organisation; and\n\n(d) records which are held within NHS Wales or a predecessor organisation but were not identified by the original search.\n\nI would be grateful for confirmation of the review and, where applicable, the relevant FOI reference number.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Fri, 21 Aug 2026, 04:33 SouthWalesCentral MedicalExaminersOffice (Gen126594),  > wrote:\nGood morning\n\nWe would not hold any records whatsoever or have any knowledge of these patients.\n\nMany thanks\n\nMichelle\n\n\n\n\n\nSwyddfa Ganolog De Cymru South Wales Central Office\n\nGwasanaeth Archwilio Meddygol Cymru Gyfan  All Wales Medical Examiners Service\n\nPartneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru  NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership\n\nFfon Telephone:  [phone redacted]\n\nE-bost  Email: [email redacted] \n\nGwefan Website:  https://nwssp.nhs.wales/ourservices/medical-examiner-service/\n\n\n\nMae Partneriaeth Cydwasanaethau GIG Cymru yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn y Gymraeg.\n\nNHS Wales Shared Services welcomes correspondence in Welsh.\n\nDw i ddim yn deall Cymraeg.

Under section 1(3) of the Act, a public authority need not comply with a request unless any further information reasonably required to locate the information is supplied.\n\n\n\nIn order to progress your request, we require clarification on the scope of your request.\n\n\n\nThe FOI Centre has received a request for the following:\n\n\n\nMy request was deliberately framed more broadly than a simple catalogue search for the words “Great House Farm”, “Ty Mawr”, “Llandough” or “Cedfin”. I specifically asked The National Archives to identify recorded information concerning the existence, transfer, retention, destruction, disposal or absence of records, including records that might not be catalogued under the property's later or local names.\n\n\n\nYour response confirms only that you searched the PRO and RW series using:\n\n\n\n“Great House Farm” OR “Ty Mawr” OR Llandough OR Cedfin\n\n\n\ncombined with “Glamorgan”, and that this produced no catalogue results.\n\n\n\nYou also correctly state that Discovery searches catalogue titles and descriptions rather than the contents of records. That qualification is important, because it means the search described cannot establish that relevant records did not exist, were never transferred, or were destroyed.\n\n\n\nIn particular, your response does not appear to address the other categories expressly identified in my request, including searches or recorded information relating to:\n\n\n\n  *   Western Ground Rents Ltd;\n\n  *   BP Pension Trust Ltd;\n\n  *   BP Properties Ltd;\n\n  *   Mountjoy Ltd;\n\n  *   the proceedings in BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2;\n\n  *   the 1982–1983 registration and associated government or administrative records;\n\n  *   the 1980–1988 public campaign and governmental correspondence;\n\n  *   the 1988 eviction and demolition;\n\n  *   Cadw or central-government communications concerning the property;\n\n  *   European Commission of Human Rights Application 14464/88;\n\n  *   records concerning transfer, destruction or disposal of potentially relevant material; and\n\n  *   HMC9/311 or related archival references.\n\n\n\nThese alternative lines of enquiry are intentional. The purpose is to establish whether relevant information can be identified through the government bodies, corporate entities, court proceedings, administrative processes and archival transfers associated with the property, rather than relying solely upon the modern name by which the property is known.\n\n\n\nI am conducting corresponding enquiries with other repositories and public bodies. This is specifically intended to triangulate the documentary history where records may have been catalogued under a different creator, department, legal proceeding, estate, corporate body or administrative function.\n\n\n\nI therefore ask that you do not treat the absence of a Discovery keyword hit as an answer to the substantive questions raised.\n\n\n\nPlease clarify:\n\n\n\n  1.  Whether the searches undertaken were limited to the PRO and RW catalogue series and the four property/location search terms identified in your email.\n\n\n\n  1.  Whether The National Archives searched for the named corporate bodies, court proceedings and application references identified in my request, rather than only searching the property names.\n\n\n\n  1.  Whether The National Archives holds any recorded transfer, accession, disposal, destruction or retention information indicating that records concerning the relevant property, estate, companies, litigation or government involvement were transferred elsewhere, destroyed, or otherwise disposed of.\n\n\n\n  1.  If such information is not held, whether this is because no such records are held, because no relevant records were ever transferred to TNA, or because TNA's catalogue/search systems contain no discoverable description of them.\n\n\n\n  1.  Whether HMC9/311 or related series have been checked, or whether that reference falls outside the search undertaken.\n\n\n\n  1.  Whether there are central-government, court, departmental or administrative records relating to the litigation and entities identified above which may contain references to the property without using “Great House Farm”, “Ty Mawr”, “Llandough” or “Cedfin” in the catalogue description.\n\n\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, I am not asking The National Archives to infer the contents of uncatalogued records or to undertake an unlimited research project. I am asking for confirmation of the recorded information held by TNA concerning the existence, provenance, transfer, retention, destruction or disposal of potentially relevant records, and for the searches undertaken to locate that information.\n\n\n\nThat distinction is particularly important because a catalogue search returning no result is not equivalent to a finding that no relevant historical, governmental or archival records existed.\n\n\n\nI would therefore be grateful if this could be reconsidered as a response to the scope of the original FOI enquiry rather than treated solely as a request for assistance with a Discovery keyword search.\n\n\n\nI am continuing parallel enquiries with the National Library of Wales, Glamorgan Archives, Cadw, RCAHMW, HM Land Registry and other relevant bodies. The purpose of these enquiries is to establish the documentary chain independently and to identify where records were created, transferred, retained or potentially destroyed.\n\n\n\nAn acknowledgment email was sent on 17/08/2026, informing you we are handling your request under the FOI Act and that the request has been given a reference number: CAS-347296-M0V4Y1.\n\n\n\nToday (20/08/2026) we have received the following:\n\n\n\nI wrote to you on 12 August 2026 with a follow-up refining my earlier enquiry concerning National Farm Survey / MAFF records relating to Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough, Vale of Glamorgan (Williams / Buckler family interest).\n\n\n\nI have not yet received a substantive reply to that follow-up and would be grateful for an update on progress and the expected timescale for a full response.\n\n\n\nIn addition, please expand the scope of the search to include any records held relating to the Glamorgan War Agricultural Executive Committee (“War Ag” / CWAEC) and Great House Farm / the relevant land at Llandough, covering approximately 1936–1950 (with particular focus on 1939–1945). This should include, where held:\n\nAny orders, notices or decisions taking possession of, directing cultivation of, or otherwise requisitioning land forming part of Great House Farm (or the specific parcel now associated with Llandough Motor Sales / Llandough Trading Estate).\n\n\n\nAny compensation claims, assessments, payments or settlements under the Compensation (Defence) Act 1939 or related wartime legislation, including the identity of the recipient(s).\n\n\n\nRelevant minutes, correspondence or case files of the Glamorgan CWAEC concerning the farm or land in question.\n\n\n\nAny related material in the MAF series that links the National Farm Survey entries with wartime agricultural possession or compensation.\n\n\n\nI hold original documents recording compensation payments in connection with this land and am seeking to identify the wartime status of the holding and the party recognised as entitled to compensation.\n\n\n\nPlease link this expanded request to the existing case reference CAS-344046-K1S1R2 so that the searches can be coordinated.\n\n\n\nPlease can you clarify if the above (received on 20/08/2026) should be treated as clarification on the scope of your FOI request referenced CAS-347296 or a separate research enquiry about the collection.\n\n\n\nPlease provide as much information possible as this will assist us in providing a more guided response and possibly assist you in getting the information you require.\n\n\n\nPlease send your clarification by reply this email, or by contacting:\n\n\n\nFOI Centre\nThe National Archives\nKew\nRichmond\nSurrey\n[postcode redacted]\n\n[email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n\n\n\nWe have now placed your request on hold until we receive clarification from you.

I am researching the underlying root of title and the history of\nthe family's occupation before *2 February 1955*, which is a critical date\nin the subsequent dispute.\n\nCould you please search the pre-1955 BP Archive holdings for Great House\nFarm / Ty Mawr, Llandough, including references under:\n\n   - Great House Farm / Great House / Ty Mawr\n   - Llandough\n   - Western Ground Rents Ltd\n   - Mountjoy Ltd\n   - Bute Estate / Llandough Estate\n   - Williams\n   - Buckler\n\nIn particular, I am looking for any surviving copies or references to:\n\n   - the *1916 yearly tenancy agreement* between the Bute Estate and John\n   Williams;\n   - the *1924 Llandough Estate sale particulars — DSA/6/701*;\n   - the *1938 Great House Farm auction particulars — GD/LA/15/255 and\n   DSA/6/1158*;\n   - the *1938 conveyance from Mountjoy Ltd to Western Ground Rents*;\n   - the *1949 agreement or correspondence* concerning Frederick Buckler\n   and Mary Williams taking over the occupation;\n   - the *1953 judgment concerning rent arrears* at Great House Farm; and\n   - any *notice to quit issued before 2 February 1955*.\n\nI would also be interested in any pre-1955 *plans, title descriptions,\nschedules of deeds, abstracts of title or other records* showing how the\nfarmhouse, garden, farmyard, cottages and agricultural land were described\nor treated.\n\nI appreciate that some of these documents may have originated with the Bute\nEstate, Mountjoy or Western Ground Rents rather than BP itself. What I am\ntrying to establish is whether any such historical material is present\nwithin the BP Archive, or whether the BP Archive has catalogue references\nidentifying material which may have subsequently formed part of the title\nhistory of the property.\n\nIf the answer is that the BP Archive contains *no pre-1955 material\nrelating to Great House Farm / Ty Mawr*, I would be grateful if you could\nconfirm that explicitly. If you can identify relevant catalogue references\neven where the underlying document is not held, those references would also\nbe very useful.\n\nThank you again for your assistance.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\n\n\nOn Wed, 19 Aug 2026, 08:06 BP Archive, <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Sion,\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your interest in BP and our archived records.

However, I would like to request an internal review\nunder the Freedom of Information Act 2000.\n\nMy concern is not simply that no objects have been identified. It is\nwhether the searches undertaken have fully addressed the scope of my\noriginal request, particularly the documentary evidence concerning the\nprovenance, acquisition, transfer, ownership, identification and dispersal\nof material originating from Great House Farm (Ty Mawr).\n\nI would be grateful if the internal review could consider the following\npoints.\n\n*1. Information identified concerning Great House Farm*\n\nYour response states that the additional enquiries identified “some\ninformation relating generally to Great House Farm and the surrounding\narea”.\n\nPlease could you identify what categories of information this refers to\nand, where it is not exempt, provide the relevant recorded information or\nexplain where it can be accessed?\n\nThis appears potentially relevant to the original request even if it does\nnot itself identify furniture or household objects.\n\n*2. Scope of the archived electronic search*\n\nYou state that the Information Technology team reviewed “archived\nelectronic systems and records retained by the Museum”.\n\nPlease could the review clarify:\n\n   - which archived systems were searched;\n   - the approximate date ranges covered;\n   - whether historical email or correspondence archives were searched;\n   - whether legacy collections-management databases were searched;\n   - whether databases or systems preceding the current CMS were searched;\n   and\n   - whether any archived systems were unavailable, incomplete or incapable\n   of being searched.\n\n*3. Correspondence and administrative records*\n\nMy original request expressly sought correspondence concerning the\nidentification, recovery, ownership or location of objects, as well as\ncorrespondence with the Bute Estate, Cardiff Council, Cardiff Castle and\nother public authorities.\n\nYour response refers generally to “associated collection documentation” and\n“administrative records”, but does not make clear whether historical\ncorrespondence files were specifically searched.\n\nPlease could the internal review establish whether searches were made of:\n\n   - curator correspondence;\n   - departmental correspondence files;\n   - donor correspondence;\n   - acquisition correspondence;\n   - disposal correspondence;\n   - loan correspondence;\n   - provenance correspondence;\n   - correspondence with Cardiff Council;\n   - correspondence with Cardiff Castle;\n   - correspondence with the Bute Estate;\n   - correspondence with other museums or public authorities; and\n   - any relevant institutional or external correspondence indexes.\n\n*4. Search terms*\n\nThank you for identifying many of the search terms used.\n\nPlease could the internal review confirm whether the search also included\ncombinations and variants involving:\n\n   - “Bute Estate”\n   - “Bute”\n   - “Cardiff Castle”\n   - “Cardiff Council”\n   - “Great House Farm”\n   - “Ty Mawr”\n   - “Great House”\n   - “Llandough”\n   - “Buckler”\n   - “Williams”\n   - “Mary Williams”\n   - “Mary Doreen Williams”\n   - “household effects”\n   - “contents”\n   - “furniture”\n   - “furnishings”\n   - “heirlooms”\n   - “fixtures”\n   - “estate”\n   - “dispersal”\n   - “recovery”\n   - “provenance”\n   - “ownership”\n   - “transfer”\n   - “demolition”\n\nI appreciate that historical records may not have been consistently\nindexed, which is why I would be grateful for confirmation of the\nmethodology used.\n\n*5. Transfer, disposal and destruction*\n\nYour response states:\n\n“We are also not aware of any relevant collection records relating to such\nmaterial having been transferred to another institution or destroyed.”\n\nPlease could the internal review clarify whether this conclusion is based\nupon:\n\na. a search of transfer/accession-out records;\n\nb. a review of retention and disposal records;\n\nc. enquiries with relevant collections staff;\n\nd. review of archival transfer documentation; or\n\ne. institutional knowledge rather than a documentary search.\n\nI am particularly interested in distinguishing between “no record exists”\nand “no record was identified in the systems searched”.\n\n*6. The original request concerning external institutions*\n\nThe original request was deliberately framed broadly because the question\nconcerns possible dispersal of the contents of a demolished historic\nproperty.\n\nIt expressly included records concerning Cardiff Council, Cardiff Castle,\nthe Bute Estate, museums, Arts Council England, DCMS, RCEWA and other\npublic authorities.\n\nI would therefore be grateful if the review could confirm whether records\nof communications or transactions involving those bodies were searched\nwithin Amgueddfa Cymru's records, rather than simply searching the Museum's\nobject catalogue for Great House Farm objects.\n\n*7. Advice and assistance*\n\nYou have stated that Cardiff Council and Cardiff Castle “would appear to be\nthe organisations most likely to hold records relating to furniture,\nfurnishings or other movable property associated with Great House Farm”.\n\nI appreciate that you cannot transfer another authority's records to me.\nHowever, could you please provide any further information available to the\nMuseum as to *which particular department, collection, archive or record\nseries at Cardiff Council or Cardiff Castle is most likely to contain such\nmaterial*?\n\nThat would materially assist me in directing subsequent FOI and archival\nenquiries.\n\nI am grateful for the additional work already undertaken. I am requesting\nthe internal review because I would like the record to be clear as to\nprecisely what was searched, what information was identified, and what the\nnegative result does and does not establish.\n\nI am not asking Amgueddfa Cymru to determine any allegation concerning the\nhistorical ownership of Great House Farm. The purpose of the review is\nsimply to ensure that the documentary search corresponds fully with the\nscope of the original FOI request.\n\nPlease treat this email as my formal request for an internal review of FOI\n2026-020.\n\nRegards,\n\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nWilliams / Buckler Family Estate\n\nOn Fri, 14 Aug 2026, 05:43 FOI Requests, <[email redacted]>\nwrote:\n\n> Dear Sion\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your email.\n>\n>\n>\n> Following receipt of your query, Amgueddfa Cymru undertook further\n> enquiries to satisfy itself that no information had been overlooked when\n> responding to your request.\n>\n>\n>\n> These enquiries included a review of records held across the Museum's\n> collections and a review of archived electronic systems and records by the\n> Museum's Information Technology team.

I am not seeking to use the corporate\ncomplaints procedure as an appeal against historic planning, enforcement,\nland or judicial decisions.\n\nHowever, I do wish to clarify one important point concerning your decision\nin your capacity as Monitoring Officer.\n\nMy complaint about Councillor George Carroll was not simply that the\nCouncil should revisit historic decisions concerning Great House Farm. The\nspecific concern was his repeated failure to provide any substantive\nresponse to correspondence sent to him in his capacity as the elected\ncouncillor for Llandough, despite repeated approaches over a period of\napproximately five months and despite the correspondence setting out\nspecific matters concerning his ward.\n\nThe chronology supplied with my complaint records correspondence on:\n\n   - 16 February 2026;\n   - 4 May 2026;\n   - 7 June 2026;\n   - 25 June 2026; and\n   - 13 July 2026.\n\nMy complaint therefore concerned the conduct and handling of that\ncorrespondence by an elected member, rather than asking the Monitoring\nOfficer to determine the underlying historical ownership or planning\ndispute.\n\nYou state:\n\n“Having reviewed the information you have provided, I have not identified\nevidence which would indicate a breach of the Members Code of Conduct.”\n\nI would therefore be grateful for clarification of the basis upon which\nthat conclusion was reached.\n\nIn particular, please confirm:\n\n   1.\n\n   *Which specific provisions of the Members' Code of Conduct were\n   considered* in assessing my complaint.\n   2.\n\n   *Whether the complete correspondence chronology and the underlying\n   emails and attachments were considered*, rather than merely my summary\n   of them.\n   3.\n\n   *Whether Councillor Carroll was invited to provide an explanation or\n   response* concerning the repeated absence of any substantive response to\n   the correspondence.\n   4.\n\n   If so, whether his response was taken into account in reaching your\n   conclusion.\n   5.\n\n   If not, please explain how the Monitoring Officer was able to determine\n   that there was no evidence indicating a possible breach without obtaining\n   the member's account of the conduct complained of.\n   6.\n\n   Please explain, in sufficient detail to enable me to understand the\n   decision, *why the documented pattern of conduct was considered\n   incapable of engaging any provision of the Members' Code of Conduct*.\n\nI appreciate that failure to answer correspondence does not, by itself,\nnecessarily constitute a breach of the Code. I am not asserting that\nproposition. My concern is that the Monitoring Officer appears to have\nreached a definitive conclusion without identifying the relevant Code\nprovisions, the evidence considered, or the reasoning by which that\nevidence was found insufficient.\n\nI would also ask you to clarify whether you consider that the matter should\ninstead be referred to the *Public Services Ombudsman for Wales* for\nconsideration under its jurisdiction concerning complaints about the\nconduct of elected members.\n\nI note that your response states that no further action will be taken by\nyou as Monitoring Officer. I will therefore retain your letter, together\nwith my original complaint and the complete correspondence record, for\nconsideration of whether a complaint should be submitted to the Public\nServices Ombudsman for Wales.\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, I am not asking you to determine the historical\nmerits of the Great House Farm dispute through the corporate complaints\nprocedure. I am asking for the reasoning and evidential basis for the\nseparate determination you have made concerning the conduct of an elected\nmember.\n\nI would be grateful if you could therefore provide the above clarification\nand confirm the relevant Code provisions considered.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Hywel Buckler\n(Ret’d Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber & Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Wed, 12 Aug 2026, 11:24 Davidson, Victoria, <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler,\n>\n> Thank you for your email regarding Councillor George Carroll and for\n> setting out the background to your concerns relating to Great House Farm\n> (Ty Mawr), Llandough, now Church View Close.\n>\n> I acknowledge receipt of your correspondence and have carefully considered\n> the matters you have raised.\n>\n> Having reviewed your complaint, I do not consider that it falls within the\n> scope of the Vale of Glamorgan Council's Corporate Concerns and Complaints\n> Policy.

Unfortunately, it does not appear to answer\nthe FOI enquiry I submitted.\n\nMy request was deliberately framed more broadly than a simple catalogue\nsearch for the words “Great House Farm”, “Ty Mawr”, “Llandough” or\n“Cedfin”. I specifically asked The National Archives to identify recorded\ninformation concerning the *existence, transfer, retention, destruction,\ndisposal or absence of records*, including records that might not be\ncatalogued under the property's later or local names.\n\nYour response confirms only that you searched the PRO and RW series using:\n\n“Great House Farm” OR “Ty Mawr” OR Llandough OR Cedfin\n\ncombined with “Glamorgan”, and that this produced no catalogue results.\n\nYou also correctly state that Discovery searches catalogue titles and\ndescriptions rather than the contents of records. That qualification is\nimportant, because it means the search described cannot establish that\nrelevant records did not exist, were never transferred, or were destroyed.\n\nIn particular, your response does not appear to address the other\ncategories expressly identified in my request, including searches or\nrecorded information relating to:\n\n   - Western Ground Rents Ltd;\n   - BP Pension Trust Ltd;\n   - BP Properties Ltd;\n   - Mountjoy Ltd;\n   - the proceedings in *BP Properties Ltd v Buckler* [1987] EWCA Civ 2;\n   - the 1982–1983 registration and associated government or administrative\n   records;\n   - the 1980–1988 public campaign and governmental correspondence;\n   - the 1988 eviction and demolition;\n   - Cadw or central-government communications concerning the property;\n   - European Commission of Human Rights Application 14464/88;\n   - records concerning transfer, destruction or disposal of potentially\n   relevant material; and\n   - HMC9/311 or related archival references.\n\nThese alternative lines of enquiry are intentional. The purpose is to\nestablish whether relevant information can be identified through the\n*government\nbodies, corporate entities, court proceedings, administrative processes and\narchival transfers associated with the property*, rather than relying\nsolely upon the modern name by which the property is known.\n\nI am conducting corresponding enquiries with other repositories and public\nbodies. This is specifically intended to triangulate the documentary\nhistory where records may have been catalogued under a different creator,\ndepartment, legal proceeding, estate, corporate body or administrative\nfunction.\n\nI therefore ask that you do not treat the absence of a Discovery keyword\nhit as an answer to the substantive questions raised.\n\nPlease clarify:\n\n   1.\n\n   *Whether the searches undertaken were limited to the PRO and RW\n   catalogue series and the four property/location search terms identified in\n   your email.*\n   2.\n\n   *Whether The National Archives searched for the named corporate bodies,\n   court proceedings and application references identified in my request*,\n   rather than only searching the property names.\n   3.\n\n   *Whether The National Archives holds any recorded transfer, accession,\n   disposal, destruction or retention information* indicating that records\n   concerning the relevant property, estate, companies, litigation or\n   government involvement were transferred elsewhere, destroyed, or otherwise\n   disposed of.\n   4.\n\n   If such information is not held, *whether this is because no such\n   records are held, because no relevant records were ever transferred to TNA,\n   or because TNA's catalogue/search systems contain no discoverable\n   description of them.*\n   5.\n\n   Whether *HMC9/311* or related series have been checked, or whether that\n   reference falls outside the search undertaken.\n   6.\n\n   Whether there are *central-government, court, departmental or\n   administrative records relating to the litigation and entities identified\n   above which may contain references to the property without using “Great\n   House Farm”, “Ty Mawr”, “Llandough” or “Cedfin” in the catalogue\n   description.*\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, I am not asking The National Archives to infer\nthe contents of uncatalogued records or to undertake an unlimited research\nproject. I am asking for confirmation of the *recorded information held by\nTNA concerning the existence, provenance, transfer, retention, destruction\nor disposal of potentially relevant records*, and for the searches\nundertaken to locate that information.\n\nThat distinction is particularly important because a catalogue search\nreturning no result is not equivalent to a finding that no relevant\nhistorical, governmental or archival records existed.\n\nI would therefore be grateful if this could be reconsidered as a response\nto the scope of the original FOI enquiry rather than treated solely as a\nrequest for assistance with a Discovery keyword search.\n\nI am continuing parallel enquiries with the National Library of Wales,\nGlamorgan Archives, Cadw, RCAHMW, HM Land Registry and other relevant\nbodies. The purpose of these enquiries is to establish the documentary\nchain independently and to identify where records were created,\ntransferred, retained or potentially destroyed.\n\nI have had a lot of months, over a year in fact, of very carefully worded\nemails in response to my FOI's and GDPR's. It's possible I discovered a\nmajor mistake or oversight was made in our landmark legal case BP vs\nBuckler 1987, which resulted in our ownership claim of our 800 year old\nhome, on land we'd occupied since 1667, being ignored - And so my\nterminally ill father, pregnant mother and myself and infant sister and\nbrother were dragged from our home by force and it demolished within hours\nof our eviction, right in front of us. The first time we'd been out of our\nhouse since the 16th century.  20 houses were then built on land we appear\nto still own after my nan conveniently died in the two week window she had\nto challenge BP registering our land in their names at the land registry.\nAnd my father conveniently dying in between BP applying for and being\ngranted planning permission. It's very damning for the land registry and\ncourts if my theory is correct.\n\nI'm not just the child from this case. I am a military warfare\nprofessional. I have 2 decades of evidence collected. I have family\ntestimony ans heirlooms too. We are looking at an Erin Brockvick type movie\nsequeal from what I'm uncovering in this case.\n\nWhat has happened here is beyond belief and is a matter of public interest\nnot just a family matter, because of the historic and archelogical\nsignificants of our land and property, subsequently characterised by GGAT\nas a “county treasure”, which CADW, under very questionable and unanswered\ncircumstances refused to list to prevent its demolition, least of all while\nwe were still living in it as a family for the 3rd consecuting century. The\nplanning/development process did not correctly engaged with the\narchaeological significance and a significant site of national interest was\ndemolished. The long standing councillors clerk took his retirement when I\nchallenged his initial reply of electing not to assist. CADW have admitted\ndestroying records after not listing. The land registry sent me the most\ncryptic legal jargon making their \"mistake\" very evidence.\n\nMy nan was a disabled, widowed pensioner. My dad a terminally ill man. They\nendured decades of corporate pressure. My dads ECHR (Buckler vs United\nKingdom 1989) was dismissing in lieu of BP's rights, citing them as the\nowners - yet there has never a ruling of their ownership claim and our\nownership claim has never been estinguished.\n\nI really do not mean to burden you or your office with this matter more\nthan is welcomed by yourselves. I'm merely just emphasising the importance\nand significanfs of any and every crumb of information that can be located\nand disclosed. Every detail is instrumental in my investigation and\nresearch and quest for justice for my family. I did pass this case to\nPolice for investigation of the fraud and consealment I am seeing, and\nwithin just 3 hours of receipt of the evidence I spent 20 years collecting,\nthey decided against investigating.\n\nI am the only one in my family who dares even speak up about this, seeing\nas anyone in our family who has historically challenged the narrative, has\nabruptly died. I was already shot at last time I was back in Wales, this\nwhile I was employed under the Welsh Government/ Vale of Glamorgan Council\nin adult care. I am a war veteran, I served in the middle east. I left my\nmilitary career with full honours. My profession is cyber and electronic\nwarfare and this maybe the reason my dying aunties, sisters and mother,\nlate gran and father, confide so heavily in me. I am questioning a lot\nhaving just completed a bona fide 22 years in Oath as a public servant. The\nMP or Councillor for Llandough will not even reply to me or my family about\nthis matter. ITV declassified footage shows BP Bailiffs to be undercover\nSAS, which the MOD will neither confirm nor deny.\n\nAll I can do at this juncture is appeal to your offices and look forward to\nany clarification of the searches undertaken and the recorded information\nheld by The National Archives and your offices final position on this\nmatter, for the history books and record. And I thank you in advance and\nfor your co-operation.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber & Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Wed, 12 Aug 2026, 09:24 RESO Records Enquiries, <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear  Sion Buckler,\n>\n> Thank you for contacting The National Archives of the United Kingdom.\n>\n> Records relating to the transfer, retention or destruction of material can\n> be found on our catalogue within the record series created by the Public\n> Record Office (departmental code PRO) and The National Archives\n> (departmental code RW).\n>\n> I have searched our catalogue, via the advanced search page\n> <https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/advanced-search> for records\n> using (\"Great House Farm\" OR \"Ty Mawr\" OR Llandough OR Cedfin) AND\n> Glamorgan as search terms within the file series PRO and RW.

The substance of your correspondence relates to historic planning, enforcement, land ownership, heritage and record keeping matters dating back several decades, together with requests for review, explanation and further investigation of those matters.\nThe Corporate Concerns and Complaints Policy is not intended to provide a mechanism for challenging or revisiting decisions where there is a separate statutory process or right of appeal; seeking changes to properly made decisions, policies or legislation; pursuing matters which are not the responsibility of the Council; promoting a particular cause or campaign; or addressing matters for which alternative legal or regulatory processes exist.\nYou have also requested that the matter be considered by me as the Monitoring Officer as a potential breach of the Member’s Code of Conduct by Councillor Carroll.\nThe role of the Monitoring Officer in this context is limited to considering whether there is evidence that a member has failed to comply with the statutory Members’s Code of Conduct. Having reviewed the information you have provided, I have not identified evidence which would indicate a breach of the Members Code of Conduct.\nAccordingly, the issues raised will not be progressed under the Council's Corporate Concerns and Complaints Policy as they fall outside the scope of that procedure. I do not consider there is sufficient evidence to justify referral of the matter for consideration under the Members’s Code of Conduct. No further action will therefore be taken by me in my capacity as the Council’s Monitoring Officer in relation to this complaint.\nI appreciate that this response may be disappointing. However, I trust it clarifies the Council's position and the limits of the Corporate Complaints Procedure and the Monitoring Officer's role in the context of the matters you raise.\nYours sincerely,\n\nVictoria Davidson\nMonitoring Officer/Head of Legal & Democratic Services / Rheolydd Gweithredol, Gwasanaethau Cyfreithiol\nManagement Team - Resources / Swyddfa’r Cyfarwyddwr - Adnoddau\nVale of Glamorgan Council / Cyngor Bro Morgannwg\ntel / ffôn:\nmob / sym: [phone redacted]\ne-mail / e-bost: [email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n\n\nConsider the environment..

Learn why this is important<https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification>\nDear Monitoring Officer / Corporate Complaints Team,\n\nWith great regret I am writing to make a complaint about the persistent failure of Councillor George D. D. Carroll (Llandough ward) to respond substantively to my repeated and reasonable correspondence concerning historic land, planning, enforcement, heritage and related public-interest matters at Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough (now Church View Close), Vale of Glamorgan.\n\nI have a legitimate and long-standing family interest in the site (Williams/Buckler family connection documented from the 17th century). See attached.\n\nThe issues raised include alleged defective notices, loss of opportunity to contest enforcement leading to demolition in 1988, heritage/regulatory oversight, planning and title records, and related transparency failures.\n\nDespite multiple contacts over several months, I have received no substantive replies from Cllr Carroll. This constitutes a failure to respond and a failure to deal with the case properly.\n\n### Full correspondence log with Cllr George Carroll ([email redacted]<[email redacted]>)\n\n| Date       | Subject / Key content                                                                 | Response received |\n|------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------|\n| 16 Feb 2026 | Potential gaps in Council planning/record-keeping for Great House Farm (demolished 1988); title fraud and procedural issues relating to Church View Close | None |\n\n| 4 May 2026  | Request regarding BP vs Buckler 1987; shared media/evidence; request for attention as Llandough councillor | None |\n\n| 7 Jun 2026  | “Church View Close, Llandough” – piecing together 1988 events from public records, family testimony and media | None |\n\n| 25 Jun 2026 | “Great House Farm, Llandough” – enquiry whether prior concerns on family dispossession had been reviewed; request for any progress or discussion | None |\n\n| 13 Jul 2026 | “Great House Farm/ Church View Close” – formal follow-up listing the above timeline, restating legitimate interest (family roots since 1667), noting absence of replies, requesting detailed response within 10 working days, and raising the removed commemorative tree | None |\n\n### Remedy sought\n\n1. A full written response from Cllr Carroll addressing the points raised in the logged emails, within 10–15 working days.\n\n2. Confirmation that this complaint has been logged under the Council’s corporate complaints procedure and/or referred to the Monitoring Officer / Standards Committee as appropriate for any potential breach of the councillor Code of Conduct (failure to respond / failure to deal properly with a case).\n\n3. Written confirmation of the process and timescale for investigation and response.\n\nI have retained the full original emails and attachments and can supply them on request.

This is not a request to reopen my previous complaint, nor am I asking HM Land Registry to determine the historical ownership dispute.\n\nI would be grateful if you could clarify the following.\n\n1. The 1971 Abstract of Title\n\nYou previously confirmed that a 1971 Abstract of Title was seen in connection with this matter.\n\nPlease confirm:\n\n  *   whether it still survives;\n\n  *   which title/file it relates to;\n\n  *   its item or document reference within the surviving records; and\n\n  *   whether it is available for inspection or copying.\n\n2. The “question or doubt” certificate\n\nPlease confirm where in the surviving first-registration material the certificate/declaration appears in which the applicant's solicitors stated that they were “not aware of any question or doubt affecting the title.”\n\nIn particular, please confirm whether this forms part of the Form 1E dated 30 November 1982, or is a separate surviving document.\n\n3. What the first-registration file records about other interests\n\nPlease confirm whether any of the surviving first-registration documents contain any reference to:\n\n  *   Mary Williams;\n\n  *   Fred Buckler;\n\n  *   William (Billy) Buckler;\n\n  *   Great House Farm / Ty Mawr and its farmhouse, garden or curtilage;\n\n  *   any person other than the applicant asserting ownership or another interest in the land;\n\n  *   possession proceedings concerning the farmhouse or land; or\n\n  *   any objection, dispute, question or doubt concerning title.\n\nI am asking this solely as a factual question about the contents of the surviving records.\n\nIf no such reference appears in the surviving first-registration material, confirmation of that fact would be sufficient.\n\n4. Identification of the surviving documents\n\nYour 30 July letter identifies, amongst other things, the Form 1E, A13-DL list of documents lodged and correspondence from Linklaters & Paines.\n\nPlease identify the specific item numbers I should request by Form OC2 to obtain the fullest available surviving first-registration record, particularly:\n\n  *   the title evidence submitted by the applicant;\n\n  *   the 1971 Abstract of Title, if it survives;\n\n  *   the A13-DL list of documents lodged;\n\n  *   correspondence with Linklaters & Paines;\n\n  *   examiner's notes, requisitions, memoranda or file notes, if any survive; and\n\n  *   any document recording the basis upon which the Registrar accepted the applicant's title.\n\nIf any of these categories do not survive, please identify which ones do not.\n\n5. Historic records relevant to identifying the land\n\nI also wish to ensure that the correct physical parcel is being compared with the land registered in 1982–83.\n\nDuring recent research at the Glamorgan Archives, I have located historic material concerning Great House Farm/Ty Mawr, including:\n\n  *   the 6 November 1877 Bute Estate counterpart lease to John Williams;\n\n  *   the 1872 Llandough Rate Book;\n\n  *   the 1924 and 1938 Great House Farm sale particulars and associated OS parcel references; and\n\n  *   historic plans and notes concerning the farmhouse, gardens and associated boundaries.\n\nThese records appear potentially relevant to identifying the historic extent and boundaries of the farmhouse and curtilage.\n\nI am not asking HM Land Registry to determine the legal effect of those documents. I simply wish to establish whether the documents submitted during the 1982/83 first-registration process identify the same physical parcel and, if so, what documentary evidence was relied upon to establish that identity.\n\n6. Subsequent planning record\n\nFor completeness, the later planning record also contains a significant contemporaneous document: BP Properties Ltd's Certificate A dated 16 October 1989 in respect of outline application 89/01396/OUT, in which BP certified its position concerning ownership of the application land.\n\nAgain, I am not asking HM Land Registry to determine the effect of that document. I mention it only because it makes it particularly important for my research to establish precisely what documentary evidence was actually before the Registrar in 1982–83, several years before that planning certification.\n\n7. Form OC2\n\nI am particularly keen to avoid submitting an unnecessarily broad OC2 request.\n\nIf you could therefore identify the specific item numbers from your 30 July schedule which would provide the fullest surviving first-registration record, I can request those documents directly.\n\nIn particular, I would appreciate confirmation of the items corresponding to the Form 1E, A13-DL list, title evidence, Linklaters & Paines correspondence, the 1971 Abstract of Title, and any examiner/requisition material that survives.\n\nThank you for your assistance. I would be grateful for a substantive clarification of the above points so that I can proceed with a properly targeted inspection/copy request.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler\nSgt (Ret’d)\n\n\n\nHM Land Registry’s purpose is to protect your land ownership and provide services and data that underpin an efficient and informed property market.

My\nsubmission was deliberately framed so as not to ask the Committee to do any\nof those things.\n\nI would, however, respectfully clarify one point, because I am concerned\nthat the nature of the request may have been characterised more narrowly\nthan intended.\n\nThe attached report expressly states that it is *not a legal challenge, a\nforensic proof of wrongdoing, a complaint seeking adjudication, or a demand\nfor reversal of the 1988 decision*. Its stated purpose is historical record\ncorrection, archival explanation and administrative acknowledgement. In\nparticular, it asks for an explanation of why almost none of the records\nconcerning the 1988 assessment survive, whether that reflects the\napplicable record-retention arrangements, and whether the surviving\nindependent evidence should be properly reflected in the permanent public\nrecord.\n\nThe central issue therefore extends beyond the merits of the individual\n1988 listing assessment.\n\nCadw's 2026 FOI response confirms that an assessment took place, but that\nonly two exterior photographs now survive; the assessment report, reasons\nfor refusal, site notes, internal recommendations and consultation\ncorrespondence are no longer available. The report does not assert that\nthis proves wrongdoing. Rather, it identifies a straightforward\npublic-administration question: *how can the adequacy and evidential basis\nof an irreversible public heritage decision be understood or scrutinised\nwhen the underlying administrative record no longer survives?*\n\nThat seems potentially relevant to the Committee's stated function of\nscrutinising the administration and accountability of Welsh Government and\nassociated public bodies, even if the Committee cannot itself determine\nwhether the 1988 decision was correct.\n\nI am therefore not asking the Committee to investigate the Buckler family's\nhistorical dispute with BP, adjudicate upon the 1988 decision, or direct\nCadw to reverse anything. The specific administrative questions raised in\nthe report are instead:\n\n   1. What record-retention arrangements applied to the 1988 assessment?\n   2. Why do the assessment report, reasons, site notes and consultation\n   records no longer survive?\n   3. Were the records destroyed under an applicable retention policy or\n   other authority, and were they considered for transfer to the appropriate\n   archival institution?\n   4. Is the present position consistent with Welsh Government/Cadw\n   expectations for the preservation of records concerning significant\n   heritage decisions?\n   5. Are current arrangements sufficient to ensure that comparable\n   heritage assessments, particularly where a building is under imminent\n   threat of demolition, are properly documented and retained?\n\nThese are not questions that require the Committee to determine the rights\nof either party to the original dispute. They concern *administrative\npractice, institutional record-keeping and the ability of the Senedd and\nthe public to scrutinise decisions taken by public bodies*. The report\nspecifically asks Cadw to explain the archival position and review its\ncurrent record-keeping practices for this reason.\n\nI would therefore be grateful if the Committee could reconsider whether the\nbroader administrative and accountability issue falls within its scrutiny\nfunction, even if the Committee cannot examine the underlying individual\ndispute.\n\nIf the Committee considers that it nevertheless cannot engage with the\nmatter, I would appreciate clarification as to *which Senedd or Welsh\nGovernment scrutiny, oversight, archival or complaints mechanism is\nconsidered appropriate for raising a documented concern about the absence\nof the administrative record of a historical Cadw decision and the\nimplications this has for public accountability*.\n\nFor completeness, I should also emphasise that the report itself\ndeliberately recognises the limits of the surviving evidence. It does not\nclaim that Cadw acted unlawfully or in bad faith, and it expressly\nacknowledges that the absence of the 1988 working papers means that the\nassessment cannot now be reconstructed definitively.\n\nMy objective is therefore quite limited: *to ensure that the surviving\nevidence is preserved, that the archival gap is properly explained, and\nthat the public record accurately distinguishes what is established from\nwhat can no longer be verified.*\n\nI hope that clarification assists, and I would be grateful if you could\nconfirm whether the Committee is able to consider the matter from that\nwider public-administration and accountability perspective.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret’d Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber & Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Tue, 11 Aug 2026, 07:58 Pwyllgor Diwylliant, Cyfathrebu, y Gymraeg a\nChwaraeon - Culture, Communications, Cymraeg and Sport Committee,\n<[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler,\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your correspondence and for sharing the forensic review of\n> Cadw's 1988 assessment of Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough.

Learn why this is important<https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification>\n\nDear BT Archives Team,\n\nI am researching the General Post Office involvement in Guglielmo Marconi's South Wales wireless telegraphy experiments during 1897, particularly the experiments between Lavernock Point and Flat Holm.\n\nThe Postal Museum has advised that the relevant GPO Telegraph Department and Engineering Department records are likely to be held by BT Archives. They confirmed that their own searches of Postal Museum holdings found no relevant records and that surviving telecommunications material from this period is likely to be within the collections transferred to BT Archives.\n\nI would be grateful if you could advise on the relevant surviving records and catalogue references.\n\nMy research concerns:\n\n  *   Marconi's 1897 South Wales wireless experiments;\n  *   Lavernock Point and Flat Holm;\n  *   Penarth and Llandough (near Penarth);\n  *   the involvement of the GPO Telegraph Department and Engineering Department;\n  *   any surviving correspondence, reports, notebooks, engineering records, plans, photographs or administrative records connected with the experiments.\n\nI am particularly interested in identifying any references to local residents or private individuals who assisted Marconi or GPO engineers. Family history suggests that a Mr Williams of Great House Farm, Llandough, may have assisted with the experiments locally. I appreciate that such a person may not appear in catalogue descriptions if he was a private individual rather than a GPO employee.\n\nCould you please advise whether your catalogue contains references to any of the following terms or variants:\n\n  *   Marconi\n  *   Guglielmo Marconi\n  *   wireless telegraphy\n  *   South Wales experiments\n  *   Lavernock\n  *   Penarth\n  *   Llandough\n  *   Great House Farm\n  *   Williams\n  *   W. Williams\n  *   William Williams\n  *   Mr Williams\n\nIf relevant records exist, I would be grateful for the catalogue references, file descriptions and dates so that I can identify the material for further research.\n\nI would also appreciate any guidance on whether there are related collections, transferred Post Office records, or finding aids that may not be obvious from the online catalogue.\n\nThank you very much for your assistance.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler\n(Ret'd Sergeant)\nRoyal Signals Cyber & Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member"},{"id":"gm-19fe7d6c11e21130","subject":"Re: CADW failures","name":"Re: CADW failures","date":"2026-08-09T18:43:58Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19fe7d6c11e21130.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19fe7c63edda5834-cadw-failures","scopeTopics":["cadw"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["cadw"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19fe7c63edda5834","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"cadw","name":"Welsh Government / Cadw"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19fe7d6c11e21130.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Sirs/Ma'ams,\n\nI write on behalf of my household; the Williams / Buckler Family of what\nonce was Great House in Llandough, Cardiff. I formally submit the attached\nforensic review dated 9 August 2026 concerning Cadw’s 1988 assessment of\nGreat House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough, the subsequent demolition, and the\nnear-total absence of contemporary decision records confirmed in ATISN\n27021.\n\nThe report sets out the surviving documentary evidence, the compressed\nemergency process of December 1988, the independent professional record\n(including the H.J. Thomas RCAHMW survey and post-demolition notes), and\ntwenty specific questions arising from Cadw’s own disclosures. It does not\nassert criminal wrongdoing; it identifies material evidential gaps and\nrequests administrative accountability.\n\nI respectfully request that the addressed bodies:\n\nProvide a full account of the 1988 processes, answering the questions in\nSection 8 of the report so far as records and institutional knowledge\npermit.\n\nConfirm whether the H.J. Thomas RCAHMW survey was held, accessed or\nconsidered.\n\nIssue a public statement acknowledging the record-keeping gap for an\nirreversible heritage decision.\n\nConsider formal administrative acknowledgement of process deficiencies and\nappropriate annotation of the National Heritage List / Coflein / HER\nentries.\n\nPreserve and accession remaining material, including the two July 1988\nphotographs.\n\nI ask Vale of Glamorgan Council to disclose any surviving records relating\nto Building Preservation Notice consideration in November–December 1988,\nand RCAHMW / HER custodians to update the relevant entries to reflect the\nindependent professional evidence and the missing Cadw assessment record.\n\nI look forward to your substantive response within a reasonable timeframe.\nPlease cooperate in this matter. Our family have been heavily displaced,\ndispossessed and justice delayed/ denied for decades. Having already taken\nit to ECHR all avenues for recourse appeared to have expired. That was\nuntil I discovered, what I believe to be, fraud and consealment. Which is\nwhy I am calling for this case to be reopened, revisted and investigated by\nlocal authorities as a matter of public interest.\n\nAs it stands with this case the law has become a monument to injustice, as\nthe practical application of property law resulted in the inhumane\ntreatment of my family. And for authority to be authority, legitimacy is\nparamount. And I question a lot of the legitimacy in the decisions and\nactions of the authorities in this matter. I seek in good faith to remedy\nthis entire matter so that it can be put behind us all. And so that the\naccount of what happened at that location, is accurate and no longer\nremains so inaccuracte, fragmented and concealsed.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret’d Sgt)\nRoyal Signals\nCyber and Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Wed, 29 Jul 2026, 09:10 , <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler\n>\n>\n>\n> Many thanks for your email, apologies for the delay in responding I have\n> been on annual leave.

Does Welsh Government hold any transfer lists, accession records,\n>    archive schedules or other documentation recording whether records relating\n>    to Great House Farm were ever transferred to the RCAHMW?\n>    4.

Our records go back to the 17th century and are up to the 21st century. So the dates you mentioned were checked.\n\n2. Catalogue results which were considered unrelated. Would it be possible to provide the catalogue reference numbers and descriptions of those records, even where you consider them unrelated, together with the reason they were excluded?\n\nIt would be a very large list of reference numbers to send you, but you can search those key words on the online catalogue here: https://catalogue.postalmuseum.org/\n\n3. Scope of the catalogue. Could you confirm whether this means that all existing Postal Museum archival holdings, including uncatalogued or incompletely catalogued material, are represented in the system searched, or whether there are categories of physical material which may not yet be represented?\n\nFor what you will find on the online catalogue: you will only find catalogued items. It includes the ones held at BT Archives. You can tell the difference on where the items are held by looking at the 'Held at' line. Here is an example (unrelated to your area of interest):\n\n[cid:image006.png@01DD25AF.B869F840]\n\nOn my system of archival catalogue: we can search catalogued and uncatalogued items. I also searched the uncatalogued items for your keywords, but only unrelated records came up. In addition to that, most uncatalogued items are records which are less than 20 years old. Any file from c.late 1890s or 1900s is already catalogued so you can't miss them.\n\n4. Restricted, closed or unprocessed material. Were any records identified which could potentially relate to the subject but which were unavailable because they were restricted, closed, uncatalogued, unprocessed or otherwise inaccessible?\n\nThe only material that would have restricted access would be records that hold individuals' private information. But considering all the people concerned were alive during the late 1800s and early 1900s, it's very unlikely anyone would still be alive and have any personal information that would still be up-to-date. The other type of records that are restricted are some philatelic items, which don't concern your research.\n\n5. Records transferred to BT Archives. You explained that relevant telecommunications material appearing in the catalogue is held at BT Archives. Could you confirm whether the Postal Museum retains any transfer records, accession records, finding aids or other information identifying the particular GPO/Telegraph/Engineering records which were transferred to BT Archives? If there are catalogue references which would help BT Archives locate the underlying material, I would be very grateful for those.\n\nWe don't have any transfer records any longer, it's been too long ago since the records were transferred to BT Archives. But you can easily find out which items are held at BT Archives when searching our online catalogue. See above the screenshot. Using the Finding Number mentioned on one of our online catalogue entries, you should be able to trace the item by contacting BT Archives directly. They are the only ones who have the most up-to-date information about the archival items that were transferred to them.\n\n6. The Williams connection\n\nI'm afraid that we don't hold any record that aren't about postal employees. So we wouldn't be able to find anything about this individual in our records. If there is any record of him in the records held at BT Archives, it's not mentioned in any of the file's descriptions.\n\n7. Preparatory and follow-up records\n\nConcerning all the terms you listed, the relevant records would be kept at BT Archives, so I can't know more about it.\n\nWe have some books about Marconi in our reference library, but they are books destined to a general audience and you could find those books in most libraries. It's likely you are already familiar with the titles!

Company Number 4896056\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]>\nSent: 31 July 2026 17:27\nTo: Archives <[email redacted]>\nSubject: Re: Marconi, Great House Farm, Llandough\n\n\nMathilde,\n\nThank you for clarifying the search methodology. Your explanation is helpful, particularly the distinction between records appearing in the Postal Museum catalogue and records physically held at BT Archives.\n\nBefore I proceed to BT Archives, I would like to make sure I understand the limits of the search correctly and avoid unnecessarily duplicating it.\n\nThere are a few further points which I would be grateful if you could clarify.\n\n1. Date range\n\nWas the search for the various names and locations conducted across the surrounding period, or was material effectively assessed only against the 1897 demonstration?\n\nCould you confirm whether 1895-1900, including 1896, 1898, 1899 and 1900, was searched?\n\nThis is important because I am investigating not only the demonstration itself but also possible preparations beforehand and correspondence or reports afterwards.\n\n2. Catalogue results which were considered unrelated\n\nYou mentioned that some results appeared for terms including Penarth, wireless demonstrations, GPO Telegraph Department, Engineering Department and Williams, but that they were considered unrelated after examination of their catalogue descriptions.\n\nWould it be possible to provide the catalogue reference numbers and descriptions of those records, even where you consider them unrelated, together with the reason they were excluded?\n\nI would prefer to examine those references myself rather than inadvertently overlooking something that may become relevant when considered alongside other records.\n\n3. Scope of the catalogue\n\nYou have explained that the physical archives were not separately checked because the information is recorded on the archival cataloguing system.\n\nCould you confirm whether this means that all existing Postal Museum archival holdings, including uncatalogued or incompletely catalogued material, are represented in the system searched, or whether there are categories of physical material which may not yet be represented?\n\n4. Restricted, closed or unprocessed material\n\nWere any records identified which could potentially relate to the subject but which were unavailable because they were restricted, closed, uncatalogued, unprocessed or otherwise inaccessible?\n\nIf so, I would be grateful for the relevant reference numbers and any applicable access restrictions.\n\n5. Records transferred to BT Archives\n\nYou explained that relevant telecommunications material appearing in the catalogue is held at BT Archives.\n\nCould you confirm whether the Postal Museum retains any transfer records, accession records, finding aids or other information identifying the particular GPO/Telegraph/Engineering records which were transferred to BT Archives?\n\nIf there are catalogue references which would help BT Archives locate the underlying material, I would be very grateful for those.\n\n6. The Williams connection\n\nThe purpose of the search for Williams is not to establish that Mr Williams was a Post Office employee.\n\nThe family tradition concerns a local Mr Williams of Great House Farm, Llandough near Penarth, who may have assisted Marconi locally. Consequently, a relevant record might describe him as a local resident, landowner, farmer, host, assistant, carrier, messenger, proprietor or other private individual rather than as Post Office personnel.\n\nCould you therefore confirm whether the search for Williams included references of this kind, rather than only Post Office employees or personnel records?\n\nSimilarly, were variants such as Mr Williams, W. Williams, William Williams and Williams considered?\n\n7. Preparatory and follow-up records\n\nCould the search also be considered in terms of records concerning:\n\n  *   preparations for the South Wales experiments;\n  *   arrangements made with local residents or property owners;\n  *   visits to or use of private premises;\n  *   transport or movement of equipment;\n  *   correspondence immediately before or after the experiments;\n  *   follow-up reports;\n  *   subsequent demonstrations or experiments in the area;\n  *   photographs, plans, maps or other material which might identify locations or participants.\n\nI appreciate that you may ultimately conclude that none of these are held by the Postal Museum. I am simply trying to establish precisely what evidence has and has not survived, and where the relevant archival trail now leads.\n\nFinally, if the Postal Museum has any contemporary publications, newspaper-cutting collections, photographs, finding aids or other material concerning the South Wales Marconi experiments, even where they do not specifically mention Great House Farm or Mr Williams, I would be grateful for those references as well.\n\nThank you again for your assistance. Your clarification has helped considerably in narrowing the search, and I appreciate your taking the time to establish exactly what the Postal Museum catalogue can and cannot tell me.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant) Royal Signals Cyber & Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Fri, 31 Jul 2026, 11:04 Archives, <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Sion,\n\nI searched our archive's catalogued, for all catalogued and uncatalogued items, using the following keywords:\n\n  *   Great House Farm\n  *   Llandough\n  *   Lavernock\nResult: no item is held in our archives using these words in the description.\nConcerning the below keywords:\n\n  *   Penarth\n  *   wireless demonstrations\n  *   GPO Telegraph Department\n  *   Engineering Department\n  *   Williams / Mr Williams\nResult: Some items held in our archives came up with those keywords, but when reading the description field on our catalogue, they turned out to be unrelated to the 1897 wireless telegraphy demonstration. Most were dated to before or after 1897. Many came up on our online catalogue, but they are held at BT Archives, therefore, we won't have any more information. This is what I meant by 'nothing relevant came up' - despite corresponding keyword, the dates or the content aren't related to your enquiry.\nThe physical archives were not checked as all information on our files are recorded on our archival cataloguing system, which is what I used to search information and keyword. Because the few records that seemed relevant are held at BT Archives, only they can inform you of the digitised or non-digitised status of the items.\nAlthough the items held at BT Archives come up in our archival cataloguing system, you would need to contact directly for more information.\nFor your questions in 4.

The surname is significant because family history suggests that my great-grandfather, Mr Williams of Great House Farm, assisted Guglielmo Marconi during the 1897 South Wales wireless experiments.\n\nI fully understand that the absence of a result within the Postal Museum catalogue does not necessarily mean that no such person or record existed. However, I would be grateful if you could clarify the following:\n\n  1.  Search methodology\n\nCould you confirm exactly which catalogue collections, series, or record groups were searched for:\n\n  *   Great House Farm, Llandough (Penarth)\n  *   Llandough\n  *   Lavernock\n  *   Marconi\n  *   wireless telegraphy demonstrations (1897)\n  *   GPO Telegraph Department\n  *   Engineering Department\n  *   Williams / Mr Williams\n\n  1.  Scope of the negative result\n\nWhen you state that \"nothing relevant came up\", does this mean:\n\n  *   no indexed catalogue entries were found in Postal Museum collections;\n  *   no digitised records were found;\n  *   or that physical archival holdings were also checked?\n\n  1.  Records relating to GPO personnel\n\nYou mentioned that most Marconi and Telegraph Department records are held at BT Archives. Could you confirm whether the Postal Museum holds any catalogue references, finding aids, or transferred-record information indicating where the relevant GPO engineering correspondence, reports, notebooks, or staff records may have been moved?\n\n  1.  The Williams connection\n\nThe question I am trying to establish is not necessarily whether Mr Williams was a Post Office employee. He may instead have been the owner/occupier of Great House Farm who assisted Marconi locally.\n\nCould you therefore confirm whether your search included references to:\n\n  *   private individuals assisting demonstrations;\n  *   hosts or local contacts connected with Marconi's experiments;\n  *   correspondence mentioning residents of Llandough, Penarth, or Lavernock?\n\nI appreciate that the absence of a catalogue entry cannot prove that an event or person did not exist, particularly where local residents or private landowners were involved.\n\nMy aim is simply to establish the evidential trail: whether the Mr Williams mentioned in contemporary accounts can be identified, and whether surviving records connect him with Great House Farm and Marconi's experiments.\n\nThank you again for your assistance. I would be grateful for any further clarification on the above points before I proceed to BT Archives and Glamorgan Archives.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Wed, 29 Jul 2026, 10:32 Archives, <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Sion,\n\nI searched for all files related to the key words Great House Farm, Llandough, Lavernock, wireless demonstration.

The Penarth/Llandough/Lavernock area is the location of interest.\n\nYour advice regarding BT Archives is very helpful, and I will follow this up with them, as the surviving GPO Telegraph and wireless records appear likely to be held there.\n\nI am also grateful for the information about the Post Office family history records. My main interest is not that Mr Williams was necessarily a Post Office employee, but whether the individual mentioned in contemporary accounts as assisting Marconi at Great House Farm can be identified. Family history passed down through my great grandfather's line suggests that a Mr Williams of Great House Farm assisted Marconi during his South Wales experiments, and I am trying to establish whether this can be connected to my ancestor.\n\nIf possible, could you let me know whether the search you carried out included any of the following terms or collections, as this may help me understand the scope of the search:\n\n  *   Great House Farm (Llandough/Penarth)\n  *   Llandough\n  *   Lavernock\n  *   Marconi\n  *   wireless telegraphy demonstrations (1897)\n  *   GPO Telegraph Department / Engineering Department\n\nI will also contact Glamorgan Archives, as you suggest, since local newspapers, estate records, or correspondence may contain information not held in the national collections.\n\nThank you again for your assistance. Your guidance has helped narrow down where the relevant evidence is most likely to survive.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Wed, 29 Jul 2026, 07:31 Archives, <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Sion,\n\nThank you for your enquiry. I will do my best to check if we have surviving records of this demonstration, although most of the records about telecommunications were transferred to BT Archives so they might have more information than us: https://www.bt.com/about/bt/our-history/bt-archives\n\n  *   Great House Farm, Llandough, near Penarth, Cardiff (not Great House Farm, Llandough near Cowbridge)\nI couldn't find any record mentioning Great House Farm, Llandough. For Penarth, there were some results but they were all dated much later than the demonstration. We have many records on Cardiff, which you can find on our online catalogue Here, but nothing relevant seemed to have come up.\n\n  *   Llandough, Penarth, Lavernock and the surrounding wireless demonstration sites.\nNothing came up for Lavernock either, the locations are too precise for this type of records to have reached our archives. I searched for 'wireless demonstration' and POST 88 Series titled 'Post Office: Wireless Telegraphy and Telephony' mentions such events, but all the files are kept in BT Archives.\n\n  *   Guglielmo Marconi's 1897 demonstrations.\nAlmost all the files related to Marconi are held in BT Archives.\n\n  *   GPO Telegraph or Engineering Department records concerning these demonstrations.\nSee above.\n\n  *   Correspondence, reports, notebooks, diaries, staff lists, expense claims, photographs or plans relating to engineers or officials present.\nSee above.\n\n  *   Any references to Mr Williams of Great House Farm, Llandough, who family history suggests assisted Marconi before, during or after his stay at the property.\nI couldn't find any specific file about a Mr William from Great House Farm, but the main records we have that are useful for family history research are the Appointment Books, and the pension and gratuity records. We also have Establishment Books and staff magazines that can be helpful too. You can find more information about what we hold here:  https://www.postalmuseum.org/collections/the-archive/family-history/  Please bear in mind that most villages, small towns, hamlets, etc. such as Llandough had business that ran a postal service, and these people were not directly employed by the Post Office, therefore, we won't have any information. If Mr Williams had another business, he was likely not employed by the Post Office. A local archive might hold newspaper cuttings or other information about this person: https://glamarchives.gov.uk/\nYou are welcome to visit our archives, but I believe most of the records and information you are looking for will be held at BT Archives.

Learn why this is important<https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification>\n\nDear Archive Team,\n\nI am conducting historical research into the General Post Office's involvement in Guglielmo Marconi's wireless demonstrations in South Wales during 1897.\n\nPost Office Ltd has advised that your archive is the most likely repository for surviving historic GPO records relating to this period.\n\nI would be grateful if you could search for any records relating to:\n\n  *   Great House Farm, Llandough, near Penarth, Cardiff (not Great House Farm, Llandough near Cowbridge).\n  *   Llandough, Penarth, Lavernock and the surrounding wireless demonstration sites.\n  *   Guglielmo Marconi's 1897 demonstrations.\n  *   GPO Telegraph or Engineering Department records concerning these demonstrations.\n  *   Correspondence, reports, notebooks, diaries, staff lists, expense claims, photographs or plans relating to engineers or officials present.\n  *   Any references to Mr Williams of Great House Farm, Llandough, who family history suggests assisted Marconi before, during or after his stay at the property.\n\nIf records relating specifically to Mr Williams cannot be located, I would also appreciate details of any records identifying GPO personnel, visitors or local residents connected with the demonstrations, as these may help establish the historical context.\n\nIf another archive holds any of these records, I would be grateful if you could advise where I should direct my enquiry.\n\nMr Williams of Great House Farm was my great grandad. I am trying to ascertain if the Mr Williams post office worker, mentioned helping Marconi in the article, was the same man as my great grandfather. I am also looking for any more connections between my family, my former home and Marconi and the radio experiments at lavernock point. Which I understand were already underway before Marconi arrived to South Wales.\n\nThank you for your time and assistance.

It also sought confirmation of what searches (if any) were made of\nhistorical paper records, indexes and finding aids, and what became of the\ncourt records relating to the proceedings I identified.\n\nYou state that, due to the age of the case, the court would not currently\nhold records \"in line with our procedures.\" I should be grateful if you\nwould clarify the basis for that statement by addressing the following\npoints:\n\n   1.\n\n   What is the precise name of the internal case management system that was\n   searched, and what period of records does it cover?\n   2.\n\n   Were any surviving paper finding aids or historical records examined,\n   including cause books, order books, registers of judgments or orders,\n   warrant books, index cards, or any other historical indexes maintained by\n   Cardiff County Court, Cardiff Civil Justice Centre, or their predecessors?\n   3.\n\n   Were any archived or off-site repositories under HMCTS control\n   considered or searched?\n   4.\n\n   Please identify the records retention, disposal or archival policy,\n   schedule or instruction relied upon in concluding that records of this age\n   would no longer be held. I note that the current publicly available County\n   Court Records Retention and Disposition Schedule specifies relatively short\n   retention periods for possession action cases. I should therefore be\n   grateful if you could identify the historical policy, schedule or\n   instruction that governed the records relating to these proceedings and, if\n   possible, indicate when they would have been scheduled for destruction or\n   transfer.\n   5.\n\n   Does HMCTS hold any administrative record of the destruction or transfer\n   of the relevant files, such as destruction registers, certificates,\n   transfer schedules or equivalent records?\n   6.\n\n   Were any records relating to these proceedings transferred to another\n   repository, including The National Archives, Glamorgan Archives, or any\n   other archive? If so, I should be grateful if you would provide the\n   destination, date and any available reference.\n   7.\n\n   Even if the original case files no longer survive, do any registers,\n   indexes or other administrative records remain recording the existence,\n   progress or disposal of proceedings involving the Williams family, the\n   Buckler family, Western Ground Rents Ltd, BP Pension Trust Ltd, BP\n   Properties Ltd, or Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough?\n\nThe proceedings in question include the High Court possession proceedings\nof 1955 (including enforcement on or around 4 July 1955), the Cardiff\nCounty Court proceedings culminating in the possession order of 11 December\n1962 before Judge Temple Morris QC, and the Cardiff County Court\nproceedings of 1974, including the part-heard hearing of 3 July 1974, the\napplication for leave to enforce in September 1974, and the subsequent\ncorrespondence concerning the proposed unilateral licence arrangement.\n\nI have already been making enquiries of HM Land Registry. However, my\npresent request concerns the court's own records, the searches undertaken\nin relation to those records, and any surviving administrative record of\ntheir retention, destruction or transfer.\n\nIf the information requested is not held within the Enforcement Section, I\nshould be grateful if this enquiry could be forwarded to the appropriate\ncourt manager, records officer or other HMCTS team responsible for\nhistorical court records, and if you could kindly confirm that this has\nbeen done.\n\nThank you for your assistance.

I wanted first to offer my sincere\ncongratulations to you and the RCAHMW team on your recent aerial\ndiscoveries. There is something almost magical about the way a sustained\nspell of dry, sunny weather can strip back the concealment of centuries —\nrevealing sites of profound historical importance that grass and topsoil\nhave kept hidden from view for generations. It is a powerful reminder of\nhow much of our past lies just beneath the surface, waiting for the right\nconditions to bring it back into the light.\n\nI write to you, however, about a site whose concealment has not been\nbotanical, but bureaucratic and procedural. My family’s history — that of\nGreat House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough, Vale of Glamorgan — has been covered\nup not by grass, but by what I can only describe, with careful precision,\nas a major scandal of documentary disappearance, procedural irregularity,\nand the systematic obscuring of a separate legal title.\n\nThe farm, which stood beside St Dochdwy’s Church from at least the 13th\ncentury (and possibly as early as 1215), was home to the Williams family\nfrom 1667 and later the Buckler line. In 1876, the Bute Estate severed 33\nacres for the Llandough Limeworks. Family testimony, supported by estate\nrecords, indicates that following this severance, the farmhouse, garden and\ncurtilage may have been treated as a separate legal parcel — a freehold\ndistinct from the surrounding agricultural leasehold. Yet this distinction,\nif it existed, was progressively obscured through decades of litigation,\nmissing title deeds, and what appears to have been a conflation of two\ndistinct legal interests.\n\nBy the time of the 1987 Court of Appeal decision in BP Properties Ltd v\nBuckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2, the question of historical title had never been\njudicially determined. The court ruled on possession and the effect of a\n1974 unilateral licence on adverse possession; it did not rule on whether\nthe Williams family held a separate freehold to the farmhouse plot. The\noriginal Land Registry first-registration bundle (WA231076 / WA240304)\nremains inaccessible following an FOI refusal. The 1971 Ordnance Survey\nrecords have not been examined for descriptor shifts. And the 1667\ntransaction deed — a 999-year lease, effectively a virtual freehold — has\nnever been located.\n\nThe farm was demolished in December 1988. A 1994 rescue excavation by\nCotswold Archaeological Trust revealed 1,026 early-medieval inhumation\nburials — the largest such population yet recovered from Wales — yet the\ndemolition proceeded without archaeological condition. The RCAHMW’s own\n1974 floor plan (ST 16817331, H.W. Thomas) documented late 17th–19th\ncentury features shortly before the final litigation. LiDAR data now show\nanomalous features near the former site that may indicate a far larger\nRoman landscape than previously understood.\n\nWhat I am asking, Dr. Driver, is whether the RCAHMW — with its unique\nstatutory role in recording and protecting the historic environment of\nWales — might look again at this site, not with a drone or an aerial\ncamera, but with the same forensic attention to buried evidence that your\nteam applies to cropmarks. The grass that covers your aerial sites is\nhonest; it can be burned away by a hot summer. The concealment surrounding\nGreat House Farm is of a different order entirely — it lies in missing\ndocuments, inaccessible registries, and a litigation record that addressed\npossession while never determining title.\n\nI would welcome the opportunity to share the full reconstructed chronology\n(Version 7.0) with you, and to discuss whether RCAHMW records, surveys, or\ncartographic archives might hold the key to uncovering what was truly lost\nat Llandough.\n\nWith warm regards and renewed congratulations on your aerial survey\nsuccesses,\n\nHywel ap Buckler\n\nOn behalf of the Restored House of Williams / Buckler Family Estate\n\nGreat House, Manor of Llandough, Cardiff\n\n📧 [email redacted]\n\n📞 [phone redacted]\n\n---\n\nP.S. — I have attached my notes."},{"id":"gm-19fc00520f23a353","subject":"Automatic reply: Follow-up – FOI Request 719/26 (Great House Farm / 1988 Dispossession)","name":"Automatic reply: Follow-up – FOI Request 719/26 (Great House Farm / 1988 Dispossession)","date":"2026-08-02T01:09:45Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19fc00520f23a353.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19fc00520f23a353-automatic-reply-follow-up-foi-request-719-26-great-house-farm-1988-dispossession","scopeTopics":["swp"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["swp"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19fc00520f23a353","direction":"received","from":"Freedom of Information","institutions":[{"id":"swp","name":"South Wales Police"}],"refs":["719/26"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19fc00520f23a353.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Diolch am gysylltu â'r Tîm Rhyddid Gwybodaeth yn Heddlu De Cymru.

Your explanation is\nhelpful, particularly the distinction between records appearing in the\nPostal Museum catalogue and records physically held at BT Archives.\n\nBefore I proceed to BT Archives, I would like to make sure I understand the\nlimits of the search correctly and avoid unnecessarily duplicating it.\n\nThere are a few further points which I would be grateful if you could\nclarify.\n\n*1. Date range*\n\nWas the search for the various names and locations conducted across the\nsurrounding period, or was material effectively assessed only against the\n1897 demonstration?\n\nCould you confirm whether *1895–1900*, including 1896, 1898, 1899 and 1900,\nwas searched?\n\nThis is important because I am investigating not only the demonstration\nitself but also possible preparations beforehand and correspondence or\nreports afterwards.\n\n*2. Catalogue results which were considered unrelated*\n\nYou mentioned that some results appeared for terms including Penarth,\nwireless demonstrations, GPO Telegraph Department, Engineering Department\nand Williams, but that they were considered unrelated after examination of\ntheir catalogue descriptions.\n\nWould it be possible to provide the *catalogue reference numbers and\ndescriptions of those records*, even where you consider them unrelated,\ntogether with the reason they were excluded?\n\nI would prefer to examine those references myself rather than inadvertently\noverlooking something that may become relevant when considered alongside\nother records.\n\n*3. Scope of the catalogue*\n\nYou have explained that the physical archives were not separately checked\nbecause the information is recorded on the archival cataloguing system.\n\nCould you confirm whether this means that *all existing Postal Museum\narchival holdings, including uncatalogued or incompletely catalogued\nmaterial, are represented in the system searched*, or whether there are\ncategories of physical material which may not yet be represented?\n\n*4. Restricted, closed or unprocessed material*\n\nWere any records identified which could potentially relate to the subject\nbut which were unavailable because they were restricted, closed,\nuncatalogued, unprocessed or otherwise inaccessible?\n\nIf so, I would be grateful for the relevant reference numbers and any\napplicable access restrictions.\n\n*5. Records transferred to BT Archives*\n\nYou explained that relevant telecommunications material appearing in the\ncatalogue is held at BT Archives.\n\nCould you confirm whether the Postal Museum retains any *transfer records,\naccession records, finding aids or other information identifying the\nparticular GPO/Telegraph/Engineering records which were transferred to BT\nArchives*?\n\nIf there are catalogue references which would help BT Archives locate the\nunderlying material, I would be very grateful for those.\n\n*6. The Williams connection*\n\nThe purpose of the search for Williams is not to establish that Mr Williams\nwas a Post Office employee.\n\nThe family tradition concerns *a local Mr Williams of Great House Farm,\nLlandough near Penarth*, who may have assisted Marconi locally.\nConsequently, a relevant record might describe him as a local resident,\nlandowner, farmer, host, assistant, carrier, messenger, proprietor or other\nprivate individual rather than as Post Office personnel.\n\nCould you therefore confirm whether the search for Williams included\nreferences of this kind, rather than only Post Office employees or\npersonnel records?\n\nSimilarly, were variants such as *Mr Williams, W. Williams, William\nWilliams and Williams* considered?\n\n*7. Preparatory and follow-up records*\n\nCould the search also be considered in terms of records concerning:\n\n   - preparations for the South Wales experiments;\n   - arrangements made with local residents or property owners;\n   - visits to or use of private premises;\n   - transport or movement of equipment;\n   - correspondence immediately before or after the experiments;\n   - follow-up reports;\n   - subsequent demonstrations or experiments in the area;\n   - photographs, plans, maps or other material which might identify\n   locations or participants.\n\nI appreciate that you may ultimately conclude that none of these are held\nby the Postal Museum. I am simply trying to establish precisely what\nevidence has and has not survived, and where the relevant archival trail\nnow leads.\n\nFinally, if the Postal Museum has any *contemporary publications,\nnewspaper-cutting collections, photographs, finding aids or other material\nconcerning the South Wales Marconi experiments*, even where they do not\nspecifically mention Great House Farm or Mr Williams, I would be grateful\nfor those references as well.\n\nThank you again for your assistance. Your clarification has helped\nconsiderably in narrowing the search, and I appreciate your taking the time\nto establish exactly what the Postal Museum catalogue can and cannot tell\nme.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant) Royal Signals Cyber & Electronic Warfare\nProfessional and Life Member\n\nOn Fri, 31 Jul 2026, 11:04 Archives, <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Sion,\n>\n>\n>\n> I searched our archive’s catalogued, for all catalogued and uncatalogued\n> items, using the following keywords:\n>\n>    - Great House Farm\n>    - Llandough\n>    - Lavernock\n>\n> *Result*: no item is held in our archives using these words in the\n> description.\n>\n> Concerning the below keywords:\n>\n>    - Penarth\n>    - wireless demonstrations\n>    - GPO Telegraph Department\n>    - Engineering Department\n>    - Williams / Mr Williams\n>\n> *Result*: Some items held in our archives came up with those keywords,\n> but when reading the description field on our catalogue, they turned out to\n> be unrelated to the 1897 wireless telegraphy demonstration.

The surname is significant because family history suggests that my great-grandfather, Mr Williams of Great House Farm, assisted Guglielmo Marconi during the 1897 South Wales wireless experiments.\n\nI fully understand that the absence of a result within the Postal Museum catalogue does not necessarily mean that no such person or record existed. However, I would be grateful if you could clarify the following:\n\n  1.  Search methodology\n\nCould you confirm exactly which catalogue collections, series, or record groups were searched for:\n\n  *   Great House Farm, Llandough (Penarth)\n  *   Llandough\n  *   Lavernock\n  *   Marconi\n  *   wireless telegraphy demonstrations (1897)\n  *   GPO Telegraph Department\n  *   Engineering Department\n  *   Williams / Mr Williams\n\n  1.  Scope of the negative result\n\nWhen you state that \"nothing relevant came up\", does this mean:\n\n  *   no indexed catalogue entries were found in Postal Museum collections;\n  *   no digitised records were found;\n  *   or that physical archival holdings were also checked?\n\n  1.  Records relating to GPO personnel\n\nYou mentioned that most Marconi and Telegraph Department records are held at BT Archives. Could you confirm whether the Postal Museum holds any catalogue references, finding aids, or transferred-record information indicating where the relevant GPO engineering correspondence, reports, notebooks, or staff records may have been moved?\n\n  1.  The Williams connection\n\nThe question I am trying to establish is not necessarily whether Mr Williams was a Post Office employee. He may instead have been the owner/occupier of Great House Farm who assisted Marconi locally.\n\nCould you therefore confirm whether your search included references to:\n\n  *   private individuals assisting demonstrations;\n  *   hosts or local contacts connected with Marconi's experiments;\n  *   correspondence mentioning residents of Llandough, Penarth, or Lavernock?\n\nI appreciate that the absence of a catalogue entry cannot prove that an event or person did not exist, particularly where local residents or private landowners were involved.\n\nMy aim is simply to establish the evidential trail: whether the Mr Williams mentioned in contemporary accounts can be identified, and whether surviving records connect him with Great House Farm and Marconi's experiments.\n\nThank you again for your assistance. I would be grateful for any further clarification on the above points before I proceed to BT Archives and Glamorgan Archives.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Wed, 29 Jul 2026, 10:32 Archives, <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Sion,\n\nI searched for all files related to the key words Great House Farm, Llandough, Lavernock, wireless demonstration.

The Penarth/Llandough/Lavernock area is the location of interest.\n\nYour advice regarding BT Archives is very helpful, and I will follow this up with them, as the surviving GPO Telegraph and wireless records appear likely to be held there.\n\nI am also grateful for the information about the Post Office family history records. My main interest is not that Mr Williams was necessarily a Post Office employee, but whether the individual mentioned in contemporary accounts as assisting Marconi at Great House Farm can be identified. Family history passed down through my great grandfather's line suggests that a Mr Williams of Great House Farm assisted Marconi during his South Wales experiments, and I am trying to establish whether this can be connected to my ancestor.\n\nIf possible, could you let me know whether the search you carried out included any of the following terms or collections, as this may help me understand the scope of the search:\n\n  *   Great House Farm (Llandough/Penarth)\n  *   Llandough\n  *   Lavernock\n  *   Marconi\n  *   wireless telegraphy demonstrations (1897)\n  *   GPO Telegraph Department / Engineering Department\n\nI will also contact Glamorgan Archives, as you suggest, since local newspapers, estate records, or correspondence may contain information not held in the national collections.\n\nThank you again for your assistance.

Whether the Bute Estate series D153, D205 and D219 were searched only\n   for references to the property name (for example \"Ty Mawr\", \"Great House\n   Farm\" or \"Llandough\"), or whether searches were also undertaken for related\n   terms such as:\n\n\n   - inventory;\n   - valuation;\n   - contents;\n   - furniture;\n   - furnishings;\n   - fixtures;\n   - household effects;\n   - sale;\n   - transfer;\n   - disposal.\n\n\n   2.\n\n   Whether any archival collections other than the identified Bute Estate\n   series were considered relevant and searched.\n   3.\n\n   Whether the Library holds, or has confirmed it does not hold, any:\n\n\n   - household inventories;\n   - estate valuations;\n   - tenant records;\n   - correspondence regarding contents or fixtures;\n   - records of removal, disposal or transfer of items;\n   - photographs or descriptions of household contents connected with Ty\n   Mawr/Llandough.\n\n\n   4. If no such records were identified, please confirm that this\n   conclusion is based on searches undertaken across the relevant archival\n   collections, rather than solely on the absence of catalogue descriptions\n   containing the property name.\n\nI appreciate that archival catalogues do not always describe individual\nitems or subjects in detail. However, the purpose of this clarification is\nto establish precisely what searches were undertaken and what records were\nconsidered, so that there is a clear and accurate record of the Library’s\nposition.\n\nI am grateful for the assistance provided so far and would appreciate a\nspecific response to each point above.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber & Electronic Warfare Professional and Life Member\n\nOn Thu, 30 Jul 2026, 10:41 National Library of Wales, <[email redacted]>\nwrote:\n\n> --# Teipiwch eich ateb uwchben y llinell hon #--\n> ------------------------------\n>\n> Owain Roberts\n>\n> Jul 30 2026, 02:41PM via System\n>\n> Dear Sion Buckler\n>\n> Thank you for your message of acknowledgement.\n>\n> Kind regards and best wishes,\n>\n> Dr Owain Rhys Roberts\n> ------------------------------\n>\n> Sion Buckler\n>\n> Jul 29 2026, 02:10PM via Email\n> Dear Dr Roberts,\n> Thank you for the detailed internal review outcome of FOI/2026/09 dated 29\n> July 2026.\n> I note the clarification of the searches undertaken (including Bute Estate\n> series D153, D205 and D219), the rationale for limiting terms to the\n> property name, and the application of section 21 to the publicly accessible\n> catalogue and Reading Room material.\n> This closes the internal review from my side.

This is a separate\nrequest for clarification arising from the additional information in your\nletter.\n\nYour letter is the first to set out in detail which first-registration\nrecords survive. It therefore enables a number of factual questions that\ncould not previously be asked with precision.\n\nFirst, earlier correspondence referred to a 1971 abstract of title having\nbeen lodged with the first registration applications. That document does\nnot appear as a separate item in the schedule you have provided. Could you\nplease confirm whether:\n\nthe 1971 abstract of title survives as a separate document;\n\nit forms part of one of the listed items (and if so, which); or\n\nit is no longer held.\n\nSecond, earlier correspondence referred to a certificate given with the\nfirst registration application in which the applicant’s solicitors stated\nthey were “not aware of any question or doubt affecting the title”. Your\nschedule identifies the surviving first-registration application as Form 1E\n(item 13 for WA231076). Could you please confirm whether that certificate\nforms part of the surviving Form 1E, and if not, identify the surviving\ndocument in which it appears.\n\nThe purpose of this enquiry is solely to establish what information is\nactually contained in the surviving first-registration records you have\nlisted.\n\nCould you therefore confirm whether those records — including the\nfirst-registration application, the A13/DL list of documents lodged, the\ncorrespondence with Linklaters & Paines, any related applications, and any\nsurviving examiner’s notes, file notes, memoranda or internal\ncorrespondence — contain any reference to:\n\nMary Williams (also known as Mrs Buckler);\n\nFred Buckler;\n\nTy Mawr;\n\nGreat House Farm;\n\nany assertion by another person that they owned, occupied, or claimed an\ninterest in the land;\n\nany ownership dispute, possession proceedings, litigation, or competing\nclaim affecting the land;\n\nany issue, doubt, objection, caution, competing interest, or other matter\naffecting title.\n\nIn particular, could you confirm whether any of the surviving\nfirst-registration records contain any indication that another party\nasserted ownership of, or claimed an interest in, the land before first\nregistration was completed for either title.\n\nIf any such reference exists, please identify the document or item number\nin which it appears.\n\nIf no such references appear anywhere in the surviving records, a simple\nconfirmation of that fact would be sufficient.\n\nIf these questions cannot be answered without inspection of the documents\nthemselves, please confirm that and identify which specific documents are\ncapable of answering them, so that any Form OC2 application can be limited\nto those documents alone.\n\nThis request concerns only the factual contents of the records identified\nin your letter of 30 July 2026.\n\nThank you for your assistance.

I can confirm that the internal review considered the clarification that you provided on the 20 July 2026.\n\nRegards,\nDr Owain Rhys Roberts\n\nAttached Files\n\n-FOI2026-09-Internal_Review_Outcome.pdf <https://national-library-wales.libanswers.com/loaderTicket?fid=4534050&type=0&key=f13df66d89dd9bb9040b52659665094b>\n\n------------------\n\nSion Buckler\n\nJul 20 2026, 08:37PM via Email\nMs Daniel,\n\nFurther to my internal review request, I would like to provide a short\nclarification regarding the scope of my original FOI request.\n\nHaving reviewed my original request submitted on 3 July 2026, I wish to\nemphasise that the request was expressly for recorded information, not\nmerely for physical objects held within NLW collections.\n\nThe original request specifically sought:\ninventories, catalogues and asset registers;\nacquisition, disposal, loan and transfer records;\nprovenance files and ownership records;\nphotographs;\ncorrespondence concerning identification, recovery, ownership or location;\ninternal reports, legal advice and memoranda;\ncorrespondence involving the Buckler or Williams families;\ncorrespondence with Bute Estate, Cardiff Castle, museums and other public\nbodies.\n\nTherefore, my concern is not that NLW does not hold furniture as part of a\ncollection. I understand that point. My concern is whether relevant\ndocumentary records were searched across appropriate archival collections\nwhere references to such items may exist.\n\nFor example, where NLW holds Bute Estate material relating to Ty\nMawr/Llandough, I would appreciate confirmation as to whether those\ncollections were searched for incidental references to:\nhousehold inventories;\nfixtures;\nvaluations;\nestate correspondence;\ntransfers or disposals;\nprovenance information;\nreferences to occupants or contents of the farmhouse.\n\nThis clarification is provided to assist the internal review and ensure the\noriginal request is considered in its full context.\nI appreciate the catalogue references already provided and look forward to\nconfirmation of the searches undertaken. ------------------\n\nSion Buckler\n\nJul 20 2026, 08:35PM via Email\nMs Daniel,\n\nThank you for your response dated 20 July 2026 regarding FOI/2026/09 and\nfor identifying the catalogue references relating to Ty Mawr/Llandough\nwithin the Bute Estate collections.\n\nI would like to request an internal review, as I believe the response may\nhave interpreted the scope of my request too narrowly.\n\nMy request was for:\n\n\"All recorded information held concerning furniture, furnishings, antiques,\nfixtures, heirlooms and other movable property originating from Great House\nFarm (Ty Mawr), Llandough, including any and all items received from Bute\nEstate, Cardiff Castle, Cardiff Council.\"\n\nI appreciate that the National Library of Wales does not collect furniture\nas a category of object and therefore may not hold the physical items\nthemselves. However, my request was not limited to physical objects or\nacquisition files. It sought *all recorded information* relating to such\nitems.\n\nThis could include, for example:\n\n- inventories;\n- valuations;\n- estate correspondence;\n- fixture schedules;\n- probate references;\n- sale catalogues;\n- photographs;\n- tenancy records;\n- references within Bute Estate papers;\n- records of transfer, removal or disposal.\n\nThe response confirms that NLW holds significant Bute Estate material\nrelating to Ty Mawr, including maps, leases and deeds. However, it does not\nclarify whether those wider collections were searched for references to the\nfarmhouse contents, fixtures, or related estate administration records.\n\nCould the internal review please clarify:\n\n1.\n\nWhat collections and record series were searched in responding to this\nrequest?\n2.\n\nWere searches undertaken beyond acquisition files, including within Bute\nEstate papers and related archival collections?\n3.\n\nWere terms such as:\n\n\n- Great House Farm;\n- Ty Mawr;\n- Llandough;\n- fixtures;\n- inventory;\n- valuation;\n- contents;\n- furnishings;\n- sale;\n- transfer;\n\nused as part of the search?\n\n4. If no relevant records are held, could you please confirm the\nsearches undertaken and the basis for that conclusion?\n\nThe reason this distinction matters is that my wider research concerns the\ndocumentary history of the farmhouse and garden plot following changes\naffecting Ty Mawr/Llandough after the 19th century. Records relating to\nfixtures, valuations, inventories or estate administration may provide\nimportant historical context, regardless of whether the physical items\nthemselves remain.\n\nI am not asking NLW to determine ownership or provide a legal opinion. I am\nseeking confirmation that all relevant archival holdings have been\nconsidered and that the request has been searched against the appropriate\ncollections.\n\nThank you for your assistance. I look forward to the outcome of the\ninternal review. ------------------\n\nIwan ap Dafydd\n\nJul 20 2026, 05:10PM via System\n\nDear Sion Buckler,\n\nAttached is the response to your recent Freedom of Information request.\n\nRegards,\n\nIwan ap Dafydd\n\nAttached Files\n\n-FOI2026-09.pdf <https://national-library-wales.libanswers.com/loaderTicket?fid=4517166&type=0&key=5afe8f6fd61ea76cddc027c015f0bfb2>\n\n------------------\n\nIwan ap Dafydd\n\nJul 03 2026, 11:45AM via System\n\nDear Sion Buckler,\n\nI am writing in response to your recent application for information held by the Library\n \n(Ref FOI/2026/09) received here at the Library on 3 July, 2026\n \nYou will receive a reply within 20 working days, being 31 July, 2026\n\nBest wishes,\n\nIwan ap Dafydd\n\n------------------\n\nCwestiwn gwreiddiol\n\nJul 02 2026, 08:51PM via Email\nGreat House Farm, Llandough | Cardiff Castle Furniture\n\nFreedom of Information Act 2000 Request\n\nSir/Madam,\n\nI am making this request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.\n\nI seek all recorded information held concerning furniture, furnishings, antiques, fixtures, heirlooms and other movable property originating from Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough, including any and all items we received from Bute Estate, Cardiff Castle, Cardiff Council.  Weather it be museums, archives or any other public body. I know museums have artifacts from our land in Llandough. \n\nSpecifically, I request copies of all:\n-Inventories, catalogues and asset registers.\n-Acquisition, disposal, loan and transfer records.\n-Provenance files and ownership records.\n-Photographs of items identified as originating from Great House Farm.\n-Correspondence concerning the identification, recovery, ownership or location of such items.\n-Internal reports, legal advice and memoranda relating to Great House Farm furniture or household effects.\n-Correspondence mentioning the Buckler or Williams families in connection with these items.\n-Records concerning any efforts by Cardiff Council or Cardiff Castle to trace, recover or secure items believed to have originated from Great House Farm.\n-Correspondence with the Bute Estate, museums, the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, the Reviewing Committee on the Export of Works of Art and Objects of Cultural Interest (RCEWA), Arts Council England or any other public authority regarding objects from Great House Farm.\n\nFor context, I am allegeing that my family was unlawfully dispossessed of Great House Farm through fraud, and that furniture and other historic possessions belonging to the family were consequently dispersed. It's possible the bailiffs from BP were also SAS soldiers. We are still gathering actionable intelligence. \n\nI appreciate that the Freedom of Information Act does not require the authority to determine the merits of that allegation. However, it is directly relevant to understanding why I seek the recorded information.\n\nI am currently developing a full-scale replica of Great House Farm in Patagonia, Argentina as a museum dedicated to preserving the history of the house, its occupants and its contents. Should records identify surviving items from the farm, whether held by Cardiff Council, Cardiff Castle, museums or other public institutions, I intend to pursue their lawful return or transfer so they may ultimately be reunited with the reconstructed Great House Farm museum. This statement is provided solely as context for my request and does not seek a determination under the Freedom of Information Act.\n\nIf any information is withheld, please identify each exemption relied upon and explain why it applies, including the outcome of any public interest test where required.\n\nIf another public authority is more likely to hold the requested information, I would be grateful if you would transfer the request or advise me accordingly.\n\nI look forward to your response within the statutory time limit.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\n\n\n\n\n------------------\n\nThank you for using the National Library of Wales Enquiry Service.\n\n\n\nThis email is sent from LibAnswers in relationship to ticket #9603180.\n\nRead our privacy policy. <https://springshare.com/privacy.html>"},{"id":"gm-19fb20f21f899949","subject":"Your Ref: EDD Our Ref: WA231076/A/216/SH","name":"Your Ref: EDD Our Ref: WA231076/A/216/SH","date":"2026-07-30T08:05:59Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19fb20f21f899949.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19fb20f21f899949-your-ref-edd-our-ref-wa231076-a-216-sh","scopeTopics":["hmlr"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["hmlr"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19fb20f21f899949","direction":"received","from":"Wales.OfficeMail","institutions":[{"id":"hmlr","name":"HM Land Registry"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19fb20f21f899949.json","attachments":[{"name":"Correspondence.pdf","title":"Schedule of first-registration documents WA231076 / WA240304","url":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/pdf/foi/2026-07-30_hmlr_first-registration-schedule.pdf","mime":"application/pdf","bytes":186813,"sha256":"d8ef59d252154e6ff8258cce4780cd1ca47be804ad9e9d65e893c09d6d02eafa"}],"textStatus":"available","text":"The document attached is an official requisition, reminder or letter from HM Land Registry.

Could you confirm whether the Postal Museum holds any\ncatalogue references, finding aids, or transferred-record information\nindicating where the relevant GPO engineering correspondence, reports,\nnotebooks, or staff records may have been moved?\n\n   4. *The Williams connection*\n\nThe question I am trying to establish is not necessarily whether Mr\nWilliams was a Post Office employee. He may instead have been the\nowner/occupier of Great House Farm who assisted Marconi locally.\n\nCould you therefore confirm whether your search included references to:\n\n   - private individuals assisting demonstrations;\n   - hosts or local contacts connected with Marconi's experiments;\n   - correspondence mentioning residents of Llandough, Penarth, or\n   Lavernock?\n\nI appreciate that the absence of a catalogue entry cannot prove that an\nevent or person did not exist, particularly where local residents or\nprivate landowners were involved.\n\nMy aim is simply to establish the evidential trail: whether the Mr Williams\nmentioned in contemporary accounts can be identified, and whether surviving\nrecords connect him with Great House Farm and Marconi's experiments.\n\nThank you again for your assistance. I would be grateful for any further\nclarification on the above points before I proceed to BT Archives and\nGlamorgan Archives.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Wed, 29 Jul 2026, 10:32 Archives, <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Sion,\n>\n>\n>\n> I searched for all files related to the key words Great House Farm,\n> Llandough, Lavernock, wireless demonstration.

I also note that the suggestion\nthat records may have been transferred or destroyed is based upon an\ninspector's understanding of historic practice rather than documentary\nevidence relating to this case.\n\nHowever, there remain a small number of points on which I would be grateful\nfor clarification.\n\n   1.\n\n   The original response of 11 June stated that associated records \"would\n   have been either transferred to the RCAHMW or destroyed under the Public\n   Records Act 1958\". As no transfer or destruction documentation has been\n   identified, on what evidential basis was that statement made?\n   2.\n\n   Does the Welsh Government now accept that it holds no documentary\n   evidence that any records relating to Great House Farm were transferred to\n   the RCAHMW?\n   3.\n\n   Contemporary press reports concerning the proposed protection of Great\n   House Farm referred to consultation with other departments and bodies\n   before a decision was reached. During this correspondence I therefore asked\n   whether searches extended to correspondence with other departments,\n   external bodies and related records. Although you have confirmed wider\n   searches were undertaken, no such records have been identified. Could you\n   therefore confirm whether the Welsh Government's position is that it holds\n   no surviving correspondence, memoranda, consultation records or other\n   documents relating to any such consultations concerning Great House Farm?\n   4.\n\n   Is the Welsh Government's position therefore that, apart from the two\n   photographs dated 29 July 1988, no inspection report, recommendation,\n   consultation correspondence, assessment, case file or associated\n   documentation relating to the 1988 consideration of Great House Farm\n   survives?\n\nThese questions are intended solely to clarify the historical record and to\nreconcile the original response with the findings of the internal review.\n\nThank you for your assistance, and I look forward to your reply.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Wed, 29 Jul 2026, 09:10 , <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler\n>\n>\n>\n> Many thanks for your email, apologies for the delay in responding I have\n> been on annual leave.

To answer your queries I must refer you back to my previous emails of the 10th 3rd and 2nd July.\n\nI appreciate your concerns and desires to find the information. However, I can confirm that all records were checked for the information you requested and we hold no further information or a record of the destruction. Cadw’s inspector advised, based on his experience, that he understood the practice was to either transfer records to the RCAHMW or destroy them under the Public Records Act 1958. We have no record of any transfer lists, accession records, archive schedules or other documentation recording whether records relating to Great House Farm were ever transferred to the RCAHMW.  The photograph provides the only documentary evidence that Great House Farm was visited by Cadw and did not meet the criteria as it was not included on the list.\n\nTo be clear, we do not have any further information which would help with your search for the relevant information. If you remain dissatisfied with this response you have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner. The Information Commissioner can be contacted at:\n\nInformation Commissioner’s Office,\n\nWycliffe House,\n\nWater Lane,\n\nWilmslow,\n\nCheshire,\n[postcode redacted].\n\nKind Regards\n\nAmy\n\n\n[https://i.ibb.co/59wkfSM/Cadw-large.png]\n\nAmy Longford IHBC MRTPI\nUwch Arolygydd Adeiladau Hanesyddol, Parciau a Gerddi\n/ Senior Inspector of Historic Buildings, Parks and Gardens\nAmgylchedd Hanesyddol / Historic Environment\nCadw\nLlywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government\nFfôn / Tel: [phone redacted]\n\n[https://i.ibb.co/CVwfkw2/Cadw-er-lles-pawb.png]<http://www.aelodaethcadw.gwasanaeth.llyw.cymru/>\n[https://i.ibb.co/NxJvcfW/For-us-all-to-keep.png]<http://www.cadwmembership.service.gov.wales/>\n\nYmunwch â Cadw<https://www.aelodaethcadw.gwasanaeth.llyw.cymru/>\nJoin Cadw<https://www.cadwmembership.service.gov.wales/>\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]>\nSent: 15 July 2026 18:28\nTo: Longford, Amy (LCC - Cadw) <[email redacted]>\nSubject: Re: REVIEW of EOI ATISN 27021\n\n\nMs Longford,\n\nBefore responding to my earlier email, please may I add the following to my enquiry, even if you require addition time to respond due to this addition to my enquiry;\n\nIn addition to my email of 2 July, there are a small number of further points which I would be grateful if you could address as they arise directly from comparing the original response with the internal review.\n\nThe original response of 11 June 2026 stated:\n\n\"Any other associated records would have been either transferred to the Royal Commission on the Ancient & Historical Monuments of Wales for permanent preservation, or destroyed under the Public Record Act 1958.\"\n\nHowever, the internal review of 2 July 2026 states instead that:\n\n\"There is also no evidence that any relevant files have been transferred to the RCAHMW.\"\n\nand\n\n\"It is possible that the file was destroyed before it was ever updated on our electronic filing system.\"\n\nThese appear to be materially different positions.\n\nAccordingly, I would be grateful if you could clarify the following:\n\n  1.  What evidence supported the original statement that any associated records would have been transferred to the RCAHMW or destroyed under the Public Records Act 1958?\n  2.  Following the internal review, does Welsh Government now accept that there is no evidence that any relevant records were transferred to the RCAHMW?\n  3.  Does Welsh Government hold any transfer lists, accession records, archive schedules or other documentation recording whether records relating to Great House Farm were ever transferred to the RCAHMW?\n  4.  If no such documentation exists, on what evidential basis was the original statement regarding transfer to the RCAHMW made?\n  5.  Likewise, if there is no destruction register, disposal log or audit trail relating to the relevant file, on what evidential basis has destruction been suggested?\n\nFinally, the original response stated as fact that Great House Farm was visited by Cadw inspectors and did not meet the statutory listing criteria. The internal review, however, confirms that no assessment, report or case file has been located.\n\nCould you therefore identify the documentary evidence upon which that conclusion was based, or alternatively confirm whether the statement in the original response was an inference drawn from the existence of the two photographs rather than from any surviving assessment records.\n\nThese points are intended simply to clarify the historical record and to reconcile what appear to be two materially different explanations contained within the original response and the internal review.\n\nThank you again for your assistance, and I look forward to your response.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\n\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergenant)\n\nRoyal Signals Cyber & Electronic Warfare Professional & Life Member\n\nOn Fri, 3 Jul 2026, 23:41 Sion Buckler, <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\n👍🏻\n\nOn Fri, 3 Jul 2026, 12:00 , <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler,\n\nMany thanks for the email. This is a courtesy response to say that I will review your questions below and aim to get a response back to you by the 17th July.\n\nKind Regards\n\nAmy\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nSent: 02 July 2026 21:01\nTo: Longford, Amy (LCC - Cadw) <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nSubject: Re: REVIEW of EOI ATISN 27021\n\n\nDear Ms Longford,\n\nThank you for your letter of 2 July 2026 responding to the internal review of my Freedom of Information request (ATISN 27021) concerning Great House Farm, Llandough.\n\nI appreciate the additional searches undertaken during the review and the explanation provided regarding the physical record series examined.\n\nHowever, having considered both the original response of 11 June 2026 and the outcome of the internal review, I would be be grateful if you could clarify a number of points which appear to remain unresolved.\n\n1. Documentary basis of the original response\n\nThe original response stated that Great House Farm was visited and assessed by Cadw inspectors and that the building did not satisfy the statutory listing criteria.\n\nThe internal review now confirms that no assessment, report or case file relating to that decision has been located and further states that any relevant file may have been destroyed before being entered onto the electronic records system.\n\nPlease therefore identify the documentary basis upon which the original response concluded that the property was assessed and found not to meet the listing criteria.\n\nSpecifically:\n\n  *   Is that conclusion derived from a surviving record?\n  *   If so, please identify that record.\n  *   If not, please explain how that conclusion was reached.\n\n2. The inspection of 29 July 1988\n\nThe original disclosure included two photographs dated 29 July 1988.\n\nPlease confirm:\n\n  *   whether those photographs were taken as part of a formal listing inspection;\n  *   whether they formed part of a wider inspection file;\n  *   whether any inspection notes, recommendation forms, field notebooks, photographic registers or other associated records were created; and\n  *   if such records once existed, whether they are now believed to have been destroyed.\n\n3. Basis for the statement that records may have been destroyed\n\nThe review states that it is possible documentation dating from around 1988 was destroyed before being entered onto the electronic records system.\n\nPlease clarify whether that statement is based upon:\n\n  *   documentary evidence relating specifically to Great House Farm;\n  *   records management documentation such as retention schedules, destruction registers or disposal logs; or\n  *   a general understanding of historic records management practices.\n\nIf no destruction records exist for the relevant file series, please confirm this.\n\n4. Scope of the searches\n\nPlease confirm whether searches extended beyond the registered listing files to include, where appropriate:\n\n  *   ministerial correspondence;\n  *   senior officials' correspondence;\n  *   legal files;\n  *   inspector's working papers;\n  *   site visit records;\n  *   archaeological or conservation files;\n  *   policy records; and\n  *   correspondence with external organisations, including the Vale of Glamorgan Council, the former Welsh Office and other heritage bodies.\n\nIf any of these categories were not searched, I would be grateful if you could identify which.\n\n5. Welsh Government's position\n\nFinally, I would be appreciate clarification of the Welsh Government's position regarding Great House Farm.\n\nDoes the Welsh Government's position now amount to one of the following:\n\n  *   that Great House Farm was never considered for statutory protection;\n  *   that it was considered, but the records no longer survive; or\n  *   that it is no longer possible to determine whether consideration took place because the relevant records are unavailable?\n\nIf none of those accurately reflects your position, I would be grateful if you could explain what the Welsh Government's position is.\n\nThese questions arise directly from the original response and the internal review and are intended to clarify the historical record rather than seek the creation of new information.\n\nI look forward to your response.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Thu, 2 Jul 2026, 08:10 , <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler\n\nPlease see attached my review of your request noted ATISN 27021.\nPlease let me know if you have any questions or queries.\n\nKind Regards\n\nAmy Longford\n\n\n[https://i.ibb.co/59wkfSM/Cadw-large.png]\n\nAmy Longford IHBC MRTPI\nUwch Arolygydd Adeiladau Hanesyddol, Parciau a Gerddi\n/ Senior Inspector of Historic Buildings, Parks and Gardens\nAmgylchedd Hanesyddol / Historic Environment\nCadw\nLlywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government\nFfôn / Tel: [phone redacted]\n\n[https://i.ibb.co/CVwfkw2/Cadw-er-lles-pawb.png]<http://www.aelodaethcadw.gwasanaeth.llyw.cymru/>\n[https://i.ibb.co/NxJvcfW/For-us-all-to-keep.png]<http://www.cadwmembership.service.gov.wales/>\n\nYmunwch â Cadw<https://www.aelodaethcadw.gwasanaeth.llyw.cymru/>\nJoin Cadw<https://www.cadwmembership.service.gov.wales/>\n\n\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nSent: 16 June 2026 09:10\nTo: Longford, Amy (LCC - Cadw) <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nSubject: Re: REVIEW of EOI ATISN 27021\n\nI suspected so.\n\nThanks Amy.\n\nI look forward.\n\nSion\n\nOn Tue, 16 Jun 2026, 05:08 , <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler,\n\nMany thanks for the quick response and for confirming your position.

I am trying to ascertain if the Mr Williams post office worker, mentioned helping Marconi in the article, was the same man as my great grandfather.

I can confirm that the internal review considered the clarification that you provided on the 20 July 2026.\n\nRegards,\nDr Owain Rhys Roberts\n\nAttached Files\n\n-FOI2026-09-Internal_Review_Outcome.pdf  \n\n------------------\n\nSion Buckler\n\nJul 20 2026, 08:37PM via Email\nMs Daniel,\n\nFurther to my internal review request, I would like to provide a short\nclarification regarding the scope of my original FOI request.\n\nHaving reviewed my original request submitted on 3 July 2026, I wish to\nemphasise that the request was expressly for recorded information, not\nmerely for physical objects held within NLW collections.\n\nThe original request specifically sought:\ninventories, catalogues and asset registers;\nacquisition, disposal, loan and transfer records;\nprovenance files and ownership records;\nphotographs;\ncorrespondence concerning identification, recovery, ownership or location;\ninternal reports, legal advice and memoranda;\ncorrespondence involving the Buckler or Williams families;\ncorrespondence with Bute Estate, Cardiff Castle, museums and other public\nbodies.\n\nTherefore, my concern is not that NLW does not hold furniture as part of a\ncollection. I understand that point. My concern is whether relevant\ndocumentary records were searched across appropriate archival collections\nwhere references to such items may exist.\n\nFor example, where NLW holds Bute Estate material relating to Ty\nMawr/Llandough, I would appreciate confirmation as to whether those\ncollections were searched for incidental references to:\nhousehold inventories;\nfixtures;\nvaluations;\nestate correspondence;\ntransfers or disposals;\nprovenance information;\nreferences to occupants or contents of the farmhouse.\n\nThis clarification is provided to assist the internal review and ensure the\noriginal request is considered in its full context.\nI appreciate the catalogue references already provided and look forward to\nconfirmation of the searches undertaken. ------------------\n\nSion Buckler\n\nJul 20 2026, 08:35PM via Email\nMs Daniel,\n\nThank you for your response dated 20 July 2026 regarding FOI/2026/09 and\nfor identifying the catalogue references relating to Ty Mawr/Llandough\nwithin the Bute Estate collections.\n\nI would like to request an internal review, as I believe the response may\nhave interpreted the scope of my request too narrowly.\n\nMy request was for:\n\n\"All recorded information held concerning furniture, furnishings, antiques,\nfixtures, heirlooms and other movable property originating from Great House\nFarm (Ty Mawr), Llandough, including any and all items received from Bute\nEstate, Cardiff Castle, Cardiff Council.\"\n\nI appreciate that the National Library of Wales does not collect furniture\nas a category of object and therefore may not hold the physical items\nthemselves. However, my request was not limited to physical objects or\nacquisition files. It sought *all recorded information* relating to such\nitems.\n\nThis could include, for example:\n\n- inventories;\n- valuations;\n- estate correspondence;\n- fixture schedules;\n- probate references;\n- sale catalogues;\n- photographs;\n- tenancy records;\n- references within Bute Estate papers;\n- records of transfer, removal or disposal.\n\nThe response confirms that NLW holds significant Bute Estate material\nrelating to Ty Mawr, including maps, leases and deeds. However, it does not\nclarify whether those wider collections were searched for references to the\nfarmhouse contents, fixtures, or related estate administration records.\n\nCould the internal review please clarify:\n\n1.\n\nWhat collections and record series were searched in responding to this\nrequest?\n2.\n\nWere searches undertaken beyond acquisition files, including within Bute\nEstate papers and related archival collections?\n3.\n\nWere terms such as:\n\n\n- Great House Farm;\n- Ty Mawr;\n- Llandough;\n- fixtures;\n- inventory;\n- valuation;\n- contents;\n- furnishings;\n- sale;\n- transfer;\n\nused as part of the search?\n\n4. If no relevant records are held, could you please confirm the\nsearches undertaken and the basis for that conclusion?\n\nThe reason this distinction matters is that my wider research concerns the\ndocumentary history of the farmhouse and garden plot following changes\naffecting Ty Mawr/Llandough after the 19th century. Records relating to\nfixtures, valuations, inventories or estate administration may provide\nimportant historical context, regardless of whether the physical items\nthemselves remain.\n\nI am not asking NLW to determine ownership or provide a legal opinion. I am\nseeking confirmation that all relevant archival holdings have been\nconsidered and that the request has been searched against the appropriate\ncollections.\n\nThank you for your assistance. I look forward to the outcome of the\ninternal review. ------------------\n\nIwan ap Dafydd\n\nJul 20 2026, 05:10PM via System\n\nDear Sion Buckler,\n\nAttached is the response to your recent Freedom of Information request.\n\nRegards,\n\nIwan ap Dafydd\n\nAttached Files\n\n-FOI2026-09.pdf  \n\n------------------\n\nIwan ap Dafydd\n\nJul 03 2026, 11:45AM via System\n\nDear Sion Buckler,\n\nI am writing in response to your recent application for information held by the Library\n \n(Ref FOI/2026/09) received here at the Library on 3 July, 2026\n \nYou will receive a reply within 20 working days, being 31 July, 2026\n\nBest wishes,\n\nIwan ap Dafydd\n\n------------------\n\nCwestiwn gwreiddiol\n\nJul 02 2026, 08:51PM via Email\nGreat House Farm, Llandough | Cardiff Castle Furniture\n\nFreedom of Information Act 2000 Request\n\nSir/Madam,\n\nI am making this request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.\n\nI seek all recorded information held concerning furniture, furnishings, antiques, fixtures, heirlooms and other movable property originating from Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough, including any and all items we received from Bute Estate, Cardiff Castle, Cardiff Council.  Weather it be museums, archives or any other public body. I know museums have artifacts from our land in Llandough. \n\nSpecifically, I request copies of all:\n-Inventories, catalogues and asset registers.\n-Acquisition, disposal, loan and transfer records.\n-Provenance files and ownership records.\n-Photographs of items identified as originating from Great House Farm.\n-Correspondence concerning the identification, recovery, ownership or location of such items.\n-Internal reports, legal advice and memoranda relating to Great House Farm furniture or household effects.\n-Correspondence mentioning the Buckler or Williams families in connection with these items.\n-Records concerning any efforts by Cardiff Council or Cardiff Castle to trace, recover or secure items believed to have originated from Great House Farm.\n-Correspondence with the Bute Estate, museums, the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, the Reviewing Committee on the Export of Works of Art and Objects of Cultural Interest (RCEWA), Arts Council England or any other public authority regarding objects from Great House Farm.\n\nFor context, I am allegeing that my family was unlawfully dispossessed of Great House Farm through fraud, and that furniture and other historic possessions belonging to the family were consequently dispersed. It's possible the bailiffs from BP were also SAS soldiers. We are still gathering actionable intelligence. \n\nI appreciate that the Freedom of Information Act does not require the authority to determine the merits of that allegation. However, it is directly relevant to understanding why I seek the recorded information.\n\nI am currently developing a full-scale replica of Great House Farm in Patagonia, Argentina as a museum dedicated to preserving the history of the house, its occupants and its contents. Should records identify surviving items from the farm, whether held by Cardiff Council, Cardiff Castle, museums or other public institutions, I intend to pursue their lawful return or transfer so they may ultimately be reunited with the reconstructed Great House Farm museum. This statement is provided solely as context for my request and does not seek a determination under the Freedom of Information Act.\n\nIf any information is withheld, please identify each exemption relied upon and explain why it applies, including the outcome of any public interest test where required.\n\nIf another public authority is more likely to hold the requested information, I would be grateful if you would transfer the request or advise me accordingly.\n\nI look forward to your response within the statutory time limit.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\n\n\n\n\n------------------\n\nThank you for using the National Library of Wales Enquiry Service.\n\n\n\nThis email is sent from LibAnswers in relationship to ticket #9603180.\n\nRead our privacy policy."},{"id":"gm-19fad588f8f6561e","subject":"[NLW English] Great House Farm, Llandough, Cardiff","name":"[NLW English] Great House Farm, Llandough, Cardiff","date":"2026-07-29T10:08:06Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19fad588f8f6561e.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19fa4b5a70ee940a-nlw-english-great-house-farm-llandough-cardiff","scopeTopics":["nlw"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["nlw"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19fa4b5a70ee940a","direction":"received","from":"National Library of Wales","institutions":[{"id":"nlw","name":"National Library of Wales"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19fad588f8f6561e.json","textStatus":"available","text":"--# Teipiwch eich ateb uwchben y llinell hon #--\n------------------\n\nOwain Roberts\n\nJul 29 2026, 11:06AM via System\n\nDear Sion Buckler\n\nPlease find attached our response to FOI/2026/11.\n\nAttached Files\n\n-FOI2026-11-Response.pdf  \n\n------------------\n\nIwan ap Dafydd\n\nJul 28 2026, 04:16PM via System\n\nDear Sion Buckler,\n\nI am writing in response to your recent application for information held by the Library\n \n(Ref FOI/2026/11) received here at the Library on 27 July, 2026\n \nYou will receive a reply within 20 working days, being 24 August, 2026\n\nBest wishes,\n\nIwan ap Dafydd\n------------------\n\nCwestiwn gwreiddiol\n\nJul 27 2026, 06:55PM via Email\nGreat House Farm, Llandough, Cardiff\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUnder the Freedom of Information Act 2000 I request the following recorded information held by the National Library of Wales:\nAny manorial court rolls, surveys, rentals, terriers, or related documents for the Manor of Llandough (Glamorgan) covering the period c.1600–1670 that list or refer to occupants, customary tenants, or holders of land later known as Great House Farm (or equivalent contemporary descriptions).\nAny estate papers, correspondence, leases, rentals, account books, or surveys of the Vaughan family of Llandough (or related Vaughan holdings) that mention a lease, renewal, confirmation, surrender, or new grant of land at Great House Farm / Llandough around or before 1667.\nAny catalogue descriptions, finding aids, or indexes that identify pre-1667 deeds, court-roll entries, or estate surveys referring to the family’s holding at this property.\nPlease confirm whether such material is held and, if so, provide the relevant catalogue references and any available descriptions or copies (or advise on access arrangements).

That is a matter for legal adjudication. I am requesting\nassistance to ensure that the documentary evidence required for a fair\nlegal determination is identified, preserved and made available.\n\nThe Information Commissioner’s Office has advised that this matter requires\nreferral through my Member of Parliament. Who doesn't reply. The Llandough\ncouncillor doesn't reply. I follow up monthly and nothing. The council\nclerk for Llandough initially refused to cooperate then retired. CADW\ninitially lied to me too.\n\nAfter more than a year of attempting to obtain records through Freedom of\nInformation requests, Environmental Information Regulations requests,\narchive enquiries and correspondence with relevant bodies, I have\nencountered repeated difficulties which are preventing proper assessment of\nmy family’s claim. South Wales Police say they don't hold records yet they\nwere reported by ITV and other news outlets as being heavily involved in\nthe dispossession of our land and home in 1988. Before our 80p year old\nhome was abruptly demolished and our land and home since 1667 seized .\nAlong with all our furniture, artwork etc, originally from Cardiff castle.\nProperty and reference information\n\nThe matter concerns:\n\n*Great House Farm / Tŷ Mawr*\nLlandough, Vale of Glamorgan\n\nRelevant Land Registry titles:\n\n   - WA231076\n   - WA240304\n\nHistoric Ordnance Survey references:\n\n   - 38-1-608\n   - 38-1-334\n\nThere appear to be significant gaps in the documentary chain concerning the\ntransition from historic family occupation, later possession arrangements,\nregistration, and subsequent transfer of interests.\n\nMy family’s understanding is that there may have been separate interests\nrelating to the occupied farmhouse/plot and surrounding leased land.\nClarification of the documentary evidence concerning historic title,\noccupation, registration and possession is therefore essential.\n\nA key unresolved issue is the evidential gap between historic occupation\nand the later registration position, including the documents relied upon\nwhen registration occurred and the subsequent handling of title\ndocumentation.\n\nI also note Marconi stayed with us while inventing radio. A Roman villa and\nmonestry existed there too and has never been formally even attempted to be\ndiscovered. Its home to one of the largest medieval burial sites, also no\ncoverage of that exhivation before 20 houses were built on our stolen land.\nMy nan conveniently died while BP registered our land in their names\nin1983. My dad conveniently died after his appeal of landmark legal case BP\nvs Buckler 1987 was dismissed and his ECHR rejected and then planning\npermission approved.\n\nI'm a former military cyber and electronic warfare professional, in\naddition to being my dads son, nans grandson and child from this\ndispossession in 1988. Which included what maybe SAS undercover as BP\nBailiffs. Both ripping me from my birthland and demolishing it in front of\nus. Along with 2 toddlers siblings and my pregnant mum, who's shoulder they\ndislocated while she served them an injuction to prevent them demolishing\nor stealing our property.\n\nFraud unravels all. And the limitation is from discovery not occurance of\nit. I alledge fraud. Fraud and consealment. BP should have least told the\nland registry we challenged their claim with our claim to the land.\nRecords requiring identification, preservation and disclosure\n\nThe records required include, but are not limited to:\nLand ownership and registration\n\n   - The complete title registration files and supporting documents for\n   WA231076 and WA240304.\n   - Application documents submitted for registration.\n   - Supporting deeds, conveyances, evidence of title, correspondence and\n   internal notes.\n   - Any records showing how historic interests were considered during\n   registration.\n   - Records concerning Western Ground Rents, BP Pension Trust Ltd and BP\n   Properties Ltd.\n\nCourt and legal records\n\n   - Records relating to possession proceedings from 1955.\n   - Records relating to the 1962 County Court possession order.\n   - Documents connected with:\n\n*BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2*\n\nIncluding:\n\n   - pleadings;\n   - exhibits;\n   - correspondence;\n   - administrative records;\n   - any associated court documents.\n\nOccupation and possession records\n\n   - Correspondence and documents relating to occupation/licence\n   arrangements around 1974.\n   - Records concerning communications with members of the Williams/Buckler\n   family.\n   - Notices, agreements, applications and internal decision records.\n\nPublic authority and heritage records\n\n   -\n\n   Council records relating to Great House Farm.\n   -\n\n   Police records relating to events surrounding the property, where held.\n   -\n\n   Cadw records including:\n   - inspection records;\n      - listing consideration records;\n      - photographs dated 29 July 1988;\n      - demolition-related correspondence.\n   -\n\n   Archaeological records including:\n   - 1978–1980 investigations;\n      - 1994 excavations;\n      - reports;\n      - correspondence;\n      - site records;\n      - photographs.\n\nDemolition records\n\nAll records relating to the demolition of Great House Farm in December\n1988, including:\n\n   - permissions;\n   - correspondence;\n   - photographs;\n   - reports;\n   - decision records.\n\nConcerns regarding record handling\n\nMy concern is not simply that some records are unavailable. The concern is\nthat repeated requests have resulted in responses which:\n\n   - do not address the information requested;\n   - answer different questions from those asked;\n   - fail to explain what searches were undertaken;\n   - state that records cannot be located without identifying where\n   searches were carried out;\n   - describe records as missing, unavailable or destroyed without\n   explaining:\n      - when this occurred;\n      - under what retention policy;\n      - who authorised disposal;\n      - whether alternative copies exist.\n\nThis creates a serious barrier to obtaining legal advice and pursuing a\nlawful determination of my family’s claim.\nRequest for intervention\n\nI respectfully request assistance with:\n\n   1. Referral through the appropriate ICO escalation route.\n   2. Ensuring relevant public bodies conduct documented and comprehensive\n   searches.\n   3. Obtaining explanations for any records stated to be missing,\n   destroyed or unavailable.\n   4. Ensuring potentially relevant records are preserved.\n   5. Raising concerns regarding historic public record management with the\n   appropriate oversight bodies.\n\nThe relevant oversight routes may include:\n\n   - Information Commissioner’s Office (FOI/EIR compliance);\n   - Audit Wales (public body governance and accountability);\n   - Welsh public services complaints mechanisms;\n   - National Archives (public records management);\n   - Independent Office for Police Conduct, where appropriate;\n   - Any other appropriate authority where evidence indicates further\n   action is required.\n\nUrgency\n\nThis matter is urgent because the continuing absence of documentary\nevidence is preventing proper legal assessment of the claim. I am concerned\nthat further delay may prejudice my family’s ability to seek legal remedies\nwithin applicable limitation periods.\n\nI can provide:\n\n   - a complete chronology of requests and responses;\n   - FOI reference numbers;\n   - copies of correspondence;\n   - evidence indexes;\n   - supporting historical documentation.\n\nI request confirmation within 10 working days that this matter has been\nreviewed and that appropriate referrals have been made.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\n----\n\nAppendix A — Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough — Evidence Access,\nRecords and Disclosure Chronology\n\nDate / Period\n\nEvent / Issue\n\nRecords required / outstanding\n\nRelevant body / holder\n\nDisclosure concern\n\n1667 onwards\n\nFamily occupation and claimed historic interest in Great House Farm / Tŷ\nMawr\n\nHistoric deeds, title evidence, manorial records, estate records,\noccupation evidence\n\nNational Library of Wales, Glamorgan Archives, private estates, Land\nRegistry\n\nDocumentary chain required to establish historic occupation and interests\n\nPre-1876\n\nFamily occupation and relationship with surrounding leased land\n\nLease documents, rent records, estate correspondence, maps\n\nEstate archives / Glamorgan Archives / NLW\n\nNeed clarification of distinction between occupied holding and leased\nsurrounding land\n\n1876\n\nBute estate/Llandough Limeworks changes affecting surrounding land interests\n\nConveyances, leases, maps, estate records\n\nEstate archives, NLW, archives\n\nNeed clarification of land boundaries and interests created\n\n1897\n\nMarconi wireless telegraphy experiments at Lavernock Point;

My concern is whether relevant\ndocumentary records were searched across appropriate archival collections\nwhere references to such items may exist.\n\nFor example, where NLW holds Bute Estate material relating to Ty\nMawr/Llandough, I would appreciate confirmation as to whether those\ncollections were searched for incidental references to:\nhousehold inventories;\nfixtures;\nvaluations;\nestate correspondence;\ntransfers or disposals;\nprovenance information;\nreferences to occupants or contents of the farmhouse.\n\nThis clarification is provided to assist the internal review and ensure the\noriginal request is considered in its full context.\nI appreciate the catalogue references already provided and look forward to\nconfirmation of the searches undertaken.\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sgt)\n\nOn Mon, 20 Jul 2026, 13:11 National Library of Wales, <[email redacted]>\nwrote:\n\n> --# Teipiwch eich ateb uwchben y llinell hon #--\n> ------------------------------\n>\n> Iwan ap Dafydd\n>\n> Jul 20 2026, 05:10PM via System\n>\n> Dear Sion Buckler,\n>\n> Attached is the response to your recent Freedom of Information request.\n>\n> Regards,\n>\n> Iwan ap Dafydd\n>\n> Attached Files\n>\n>    - FOI2026-09.pdf\n>    <https://national-library-wales.libanswers.com/loaderTicket?fid=4517166&type=0&key=5afe8f6fd61ea76cddc027c015f0bfb2>\n>\n> ------------------------------\n>\n> Iwan ap Dafydd\n>\n> Jul 03 2026, 11:45AM via System\n>\n> Dear Sion Buckler,\n>\n> I am writing in response to your recent application for information held\n> by the Library\n>\n> (Ref FOI/2026/09) received here at the Library on 3 July, 2026\n>\n> You will receive a reply within 20 working days, being 31 July, 2026\n>\n> Best wishes,\n>\n> Iwan ap Dafydd\n> ------------------------------\n>\n> Cwestiwn gwreiddiol\n>\n> Jul 02 2026, 08:51PM via Email\n> Great House Farm, Llandough | Cardiff Castle Furniture\n>\n> *Freedom of Information Act 2000 Request*\n>\n> Sir/Madam,\n>\n> I am making this request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.\n>\n> I seek all recorded information held concerning furniture, furnishings,\n> antiques, fixtures, heirlooms and other movable property originating from *Great\n> House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough*, including any and all items we received\n> from *Bute Estate*, *Cardiff Castle*, *Cardiff Council. * Weather it be\n> museums, archives or any other public body.

However, my request was not limited to physical objects or\nacquisition files. It sought *all recorded information* relating to such\nitems.\n\nThis could include, for example:\n\n   - inventories;\n   - valuations;\n   - estate correspondence;\n   - fixture schedules;\n   - probate references;\n   - sale catalogues;\n   - photographs;\n   - tenancy records;\n   - references within Bute Estate papers;\n   - records of transfer, removal or disposal.\n\nThe response confirms that NLW holds significant Bute Estate material\nrelating to Ty Mawr, including maps, leases and deeds. However, it does not\nclarify whether those wider collections were searched for references to the\nfarmhouse contents, fixtures, or related estate administration records.\n\nCould the internal review please clarify:\n\n   1.\n\n   What collections and record series were searched in responding to this\n   request?\n   2.\n\n   Were searches undertaken beyond acquisition files, including within Bute\n   Estate papers and related archival collections?\n   3.\n\n   Were terms such as:\n\n\n   - Great House Farm;\n   - Ty Mawr;\n   - Llandough;\n   - fixtures;\n   - inventory;\n   - valuation;\n   - contents;\n   - furnishings;\n   - sale;\n   - transfer;\n\nused as part of the search?\n\n   4. If no relevant records are held, could you please confirm the\n   searches undertaken and the basis for that conclusion?\n\nThe reason this distinction matters is that my wider research concerns the\ndocumentary history of the farmhouse and garden plot following changes\naffecting Ty Mawr/Llandough after the 19th century. Records relating to\nfixtures, valuations, inventories or estate administration may provide\nimportant historical context, regardless of whether the physical items\nthemselves remain.\n\nI am not asking NLW to determine ownership or provide a legal opinion. I am\nseeking confirmation that all relevant archival holdings have been\nconsidered and that the request has been searched against the appropriate\ncollections.\n\nThank you for your assistance. I look forward to the outcome of the\ninternal review.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sgt)\n\nOn Mon, 20 Jul 2026, 13:11 National Library of Wales, <[email redacted]>\nwrote:\n\n> --# Teipiwch eich ateb uwchben y llinell hon #--\n> ------------------------------\n>\n> Iwan ap Dafydd\n>\n> Jul 20 2026, 05:10PM via System\n>\n> Dear Sion Buckler,\n>\n> Attached is the response to your recent Freedom of Information request.\n>\n> Regards,\n>\n> Iwan ap Dafydd\n>\n> Attached Files\n>\n>    - FOI2026-09.pdf\n>    <https://national-library-wales.libanswers.com/loaderTicket?fid=4517166&type=0&key=5afe8f6fd61ea76cddc027c015f0bfb2>\n>\n> ------------------------------\n>\n> Iwan ap Dafydd\n>\n> Jul 03 2026, 11:45AM via System\n>\n> Dear Sion Buckler,\n>\n> I am writing in response to your recent application for information held\n> by the Library\n>\n> (Ref FOI/2026/09) received here at the Library on 3 July, 2026\n>\n> You will receive a reply within 20 working days, being 31 July, 2026\n>\n> Best wishes,\n>\n> Iwan ap Dafydd\n> ------------------------------\n>\n> Cwestiwn gwreiddiol\n>\n> Jul 02 2026, 08:51PM via Email\n> Great House Farm, Llandough | Cardiff Castle Furniture\n>\n> *Freedom of Information Act 2000 Request*\n>\n> Sir/Madam,\n>\n> I am making this request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.\n>\n> I seek all recorded information held concerning furniture, furnishings,\n> antiques, fixtures, heirlooms and other movable property originating from *Great\n> House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough*, including any and all items we received\n> from *Bute Estate*, *Cardiff Castle*, *Cardiff Council. * Weather it be\n> museums, archives or any other public body.

Learn why this is important<https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification>\n\nMs Eastham,\n\nThank you for your reply.\n\nI believe there has been a misunderstanding regarding the nature of my complaint.\n\nI am not asking the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman to review judicial decisions made in the Great House Farm litigation, nor am I seeking an investigation into the merits of the original court proceedings.\n\nMy complaint concerns alleged maladministration by HM Courts & Tribunals Service in its present-day handling of my complaint, including defective complaint handling, inaccurate statements regarding court records, failures to investigate apparent inconsistencies, and the resulting loss of my opportunity to pursue appropriate remedies.\n\nYour email states that complaints about HMCTS fall within your remit once the HMCTS complaints procedure has been completed and an MP referral has been obtained. That is precisely the route I am following.\n\nAccordingly, I would be grateful if you could confirm that, once I have exhausted the HMCTS complaints process and obtained the required MP referral, the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman will consider my complaint insofar as it concerns administrative failings by HMCTS, rather than the judicial decisions themselves.\n\nI would appreciate confirmation that this is the correct procedure. Also feel free to call to discuss as this is a collosal and complex case. I'm assembling a website with a chronological timeline and I'll place the supporting evidence I find on it.

It established that a unilateral letter from the paper title\nowner granting a rent-free licence could prevent adverse possession, even\nwhere the occupier had not expressly accepted it. The case has shaped\nproperty law for almost forty years.\n\nMy concern is not simply with the legal judgment itself.\n\nIt is with what surrounded it.\n\nFor several years I have been investigating the history of my family's\noccupation of *Great House Farm, Llandough, near Penarth*, and the events\nleading to the litigation. Through hundreds of Freedom of Information\nrequests, archive searches, Land Registry enquiries, historical research\nand correspondence with public authorities, I have uncovered what I believe\nare serious inconsistencies, missing records and evidence of institutional\nconcealment that deserve independent scrutiny.\n\nAmong the matters that I believe warrant investigation are:\n\n   - Whether material evidence relating to the occupation and ownership of\n   Great House Farm was withheld or never presented.\n   - The circumstances surrounding the registration of title by BP\n   interests in 1982 despite the long-running dispute.\n   - Missing or unexplained historical records across multiple public\n   bodies.\n   - Whether public authorities have failed to preserve records concerning\n   a nationally significant legal case.\n   - Whether subsequent institutions have frustrated attempts to obtain\n   records through Freedom of Information legislation.\n   - The wider implications if a leading legal precedent was built upon an\n   incomplete or inaccurate factual record.\n\nMy investigation has revealed repeated examples of authorities either\nclaiming records do not exist, directing me elsewhere, or providing\ndocuments unrelated to the requests made. Numerous archives acknowledge\ngaps where relevant material would ordinarily be expected.\n\nI have also experienced what I believe to be persistent obstruction. My\nelected representatives have failed to engage despite repeated requests.\nComplaints have been redirected without investigation. During my enquiries,\na court employee whom I challenged over contradictory information left\ntheir position shortly afterwards. While I cannot infer the reason for that\ndeparture, the wider pattern has made it exceptionally difficult to\nestablish an accurate historical record.\n\nThis story extends far beyond a private family dispute.\n\nIt concerns:\n\n   - whether powerful institutions have been properly held accountable;\n   - preservation of public records;\n   - transparency within government;\n   - the development of UK property law;\n   - the treatment of ordinary families in litigation against major\n   corporations;\n   - and whether historical injustices can remain effectively hidden\n   because records disappear over time.\n\nThe human story is equally compelling.\n\nMy family lived through decades of litigation, uncertainty and eventual\ndisplacement. The farmhouse was ultimately demolished, ending centuries of\nfamily association with the property. Much of my family—particularly the\nwomen—have lived with the consequences for generations and remain reluctant\nto speak publicly because of the trauma. My brother and I are now\nattempting to reconstruct the historical record before more evidence\ndisappears.\n\nThe property itself has remarkable historical significance. Great House\nFarm has connections with the historic Bute Estate, archaeological\ndiscoveries including Roman remains, and local accounts associated with the\npioneering wireless experiments at Lavernock Point during the Marconi era.\nYet the legal battle that made national case law has largely eclipsed that\nwider history.\n\nThis investigation is supported by:\n\n   - extensive documentary evidence;\n   - Land Registry correspondence;\n   - Freedom of Information responses from multiple public authorities;\n   - archive references from national and local repositories;\n   - court documents;\n   - historical maps;\n   - newspaper reports;\n   - and a detailed chronology spanning more than a century.\n\nI have also recorded my testimony explaining the evidence, chronology and\nimpact on my family: https://youtu.be/XuArB_vYWWA?si=O7TL2i5ocU3vn5fG\n\nI am prepared to provide your journalists with a fully indexed evidence\narchive, original source documents, timelines, witness information where\navailable, and copies of all official correspondence.\n\nI am *not* asking your newspaper to accept my conclusions without question.\n\nI am asking you to investigate.\n\nIf my concerns are unfounded, they should be capable of being disproved\nthrough proper scrutiny. If they are substantiated, they raise serious\nquestions about one of the UK's leading property law authorities,\ninstitutional accountability, public record keeping and the treatment of an\nordinary family whose story has never properly been told.\n\nThis is not simply a historical dispute.\n\nIt is a story about how legal precedents are created, how power operates,\nwhether the historical record can be trusted, and whether ordinary citizens\ncan ever obtain accountability decades after the events in question.\n\nI believe it is exactly the kind of investigation that serves the public\ninterest.\n\nI would welcome the opportunity to speak with one of your investigative\njournalists and provide unrestricted access to the evidence I have\nassembled.\n\n*Yours faithfully,*\n\n*Sion Buckler*\nRetired Sergeant, Royal Signals\nCyber and Electronic Warfare Professional\nLife Member, Royal Signals\n\n[phone redacted]\n\n[phone redacted]"},{"id":"gm-19f6c6fbe8b1063b","subject":"Re: PHSO Case Ref: C-2205633","name":"Re: PHSO Case Ref: C-2205633","date":"2026-07-16T19:38:10Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19f6c6fbe8b1063b.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19f6b62c2ddc9ed9-phso-case-ref-c-2205633","scopeTopics":["phso"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["phso"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19f6b62c2ddc9ed9","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"phso","name":"Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19f6c6fbe8b1063b.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Ms Eastham,\n\nThank you for your reply.\n\nI believe there has been a misunderstanding regarding the nature of my\ncomplaint.\n\nI am not asking the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman to review\njudicial decisions made in the Great House Farm litigation, nor am I\nseeking an investigation into the merits of the original court proceedings.\n\nMy complaint concerns alleged maladministration by HM Courts & Tribunals\nService in its present-day handling of my complaint, including defective\ncomplaint handling, inaccurate statements regarding court records, failures\nto investigate apparent inconsistencies, and the resulting loss of my\nopportunity to pursue appropriate remedies.\n\nYour email states that complaints about HMCTS fall within your remit once\nthe HMCTS complaints procedure has been completed and an MP referral has\nbeen obtained.

Judicial Reviews and Appeals:\nYou will need to seek independent legal advice about the possibility of appealing the decisions or applying for a judicial review. Legal professionals can guide you on the feasibility of further legal action.\n  2.  European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR):\nIf you believe your rights under the ECHR have been violated, you may wish to bring his case to the ECtHR. You will need to review the criteria for applying to the ECtHR at the court's official website: https://www.echr.coe.int/.\n  3.

Learn why this is important \n\nFreedom of Information Act 2000 Request\n\nSir/Madam,\n\nI am making this request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.\n\nI seek all recorded information held concerning furniture, furnishings, antiques, fixtures, heirlooms and other movable property originating from Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough, including any and all items we received from Bute Estate, Cardiff Castle, Cardiff Council.  Weather it be museums, archives or any other public body. I know museums have artifacts from our land in Llandough.\n\nSpecifically, I request copies of all:\n\n  1.  Inventories, catalogues and asset registers.\n  2.  Acquisition, disposal, loan and transfer records.\n  3.  Provenance files and ownership records.\n  4.  Photographs of items identified as originating from Great House Farm.\n  5.  Correspondence concerning the identification, recovery, ownership or location of such items.\n  6.  Internal reports, legal advice and memoranda relating to Great House Farm furniture or household effects.\n  7.  Correspondence mentioning the Buckler or Williams families in connection with these items.\n  8.  Records concerning any efforts by Cardiff Council or Cardiff Castle to trace, recover or secure items believed to have originated from Great House Farm.\n  9.  Correspondence with the Bute Estate, museums, the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, the Reviewing Committee on the Export of Works of Art and Objects of Cultural Interest (RCEWA), Arts Council England or any other public authority regarding objects from Great House Farm.\n\nFor context, I am allegeing that my family was unlawfully dispossessed of Great House Farm through fraud, and that furniture and other historic possessions belonging to the family were consequently dispersed. It's possible the bailiffs from BP were also SAS soldiers. We are still gathering actionable intelligence.\n\nI appreciate that the Freedom of Information Act does not require the authority to determine the merits of that allegation. However, it is directly relevant to understanding why I seek the recorded information.\n\nI am currently developing a full-scale replica of Great House Farm in Patagonia, Argentina as a museum dedicated to preserving the history of the house, its occupants and its contents. Should records identify surviving items from the farm, whether held by Cardiff Council, Cardiff Castle, museums or other public institutions, I intend to pursue their lawful return or transfer so they may ultimately be reunited with the reconstructed Great House Farm museum. This statement is provided solely as context for my request and does not seek a determination under the Freedom of Information Act.\n\nIf any information is withheld, please identify each exemption relied upon and explain why it applies, including the outcome of any public interest test where required.\n\nIf another public authority is more likely to hold the requested information, I would be grateful if you would transfer the request or advise me accordingly.\n\nI look forward to your response within the statutory time limit.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)"},{"id":"gm-19f59b3f9816c96a","subject":"Automatic reply: Great House Farm, Llandough (now Church View Close)","name":"Automatic reply: Great House Farm, Llandough (now Church View Close)","date":"2026-07-13T04:19:49Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19f59b3f9816c96a.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19f59b3f9816c96a-automatic-reply-great-house-farm-llandough-now-church-view-close","scopeTopics":["mp"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["mp"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19f59b3f9816c96a","direction":"received","from":"DOUGHTY, Stephen","institutions":[{"id":"mp","name":"Member of Parliament"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19f59b3f9816c96a.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Hello,\n\nThank you for your email.

and\napart from the two photographs, no further records have been identified.\nI am grateful for those clarifications.\n\nAs this request is being considered under the Environmental Information\nRegulations 2004 (and, where applicable, the Freedom of Information Act\n2000), and bearing in mind the EIR's presumption in favour of disclosure, I\nwould be grateful for one further clarification regarding the scope of the\nsearches undertaken.\n\nContemporary newspaper reports from December 1988 indicate that Cadw was\nactively engaged with a number of parties during its consideration of Great\nHouse Farm. These reports refer to:\n\nCadw considering emergency (\"spot\") listing;\ndiscussions with the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical\nMonuments of Wales;\ncomments made by a Cadw spokesperson explaining why the building did not\nsatisfy the listing criteria; and\npublic statements regarding the architectural and archaeological\nsignificance of the site.\n\nGiven those contemporary reports, could you please confirm whether the\nsearches undertaken for ATISN 27021 specifically included records such as:\n\ninternal memoranda;\ninspector-to-management correspondence;\nbriefing notes;\nfile notes and telephone notes;\nmeeting records;\npress office files, media briefings or press releases;\ncorrespondence with the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical\nMonuments of Wales;\ncorrespondence with the Welsh Office;\ncorrespondence with the local planning authority, conservation officers or\nother public bodies;\nministerial submissions or briefing papers; and\nany other correspondence, whether internal or external, relating to the\nconsideration of Great House Farm for statutory listing.\n\nThe public interest in ensuring that all environmental information has been\nidentified is considerable. Great House Farm was a site with a recorded\nhistory extending over approximately 800 years, associated with the\nhistoric manor of Llandough, incorporating significant historic fabric\nincluding the coach house and outbuildings, and lying within the wider\ncontext of the Marconi wireless experiments at Lavernock. It had also been\nthe subject of a 1974 public petition concerning its preservation and, as\nconfirmed by Cadw, was sufficiently significant in 1988 to warrant\nconsideration for emergency (\"spot\") listing. These factors underline the\nimportance of establishing whether any additional environmental information\nrelating to Cadw's assessment survives.\n\nFinally, if the official listing file and/or any associated correspondence\nonce existed but are no longer held, I would be grateful if you could\nclarify Cadw's records management position by confirming:\nwhether any retention schedule applied to those records;\n\nwhether any authorised destruction took place;\nwhether any destruction certificate, disposal log or other records\nmanagement documentation exists;\nif no such documentation exists, whether this is because no destruction\nrecord was created or because any such record is itself no longer held.\n\nMy intention is simply to establish whether any further environmental\ninformation relating to Cadw's consideration of Great House Farm survives\nbeyond the two inspection photographs already disclosed.\nThank you again for your assistance, and I look forward to your response.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Fri, 10 Jul 2026, 08:57 , <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler\n>\n>\n>\n> Many thanks for the below email and follow up questions, for clarity I\n> have responded to each in turn.

I hope this helps provide the clarity you are looking for.\n\n\n  1.  Documentary basis of the original response\n\nThe two photographs illustrate that the building was inspected for listing and ‘yyy’ reference on the reverse of the photograph was the coding at the time to signify that the building did not met the criteria to be listed.\n\n  1.  The inspection of 29th July 1988\n\nThe photographs are dated 29/07/1988 and would have been taken as part of the listing assessment. The practice was to keep all photographs separate from the official file in a cabinet. No official file containing additional information has been located and the Records Department have indicated that the documentation from 1988 has, most likely, been destroyed.\n\n  1.  Basis for the statement that records may have been destroyed.\n\nNo destruction record exists. An official in the Records Department provided this advice based on their experience and understanding of the records within their management.\n\n  1.  Scope of the searches\n\nI can confirm that the searches included all 8 categories\n\n  1.  Welsh Government’s position.\n\nI can confirm that the building was considered for listing, however other than the 2 photographs provided, no other records survive.\n\n\n\nKind Regards\n\n\n\nAmy\n\n\n\n[https://i.ibb.co/59wkfSM/Cadw-large.png]\n\nAmy Longford IHBC MRTPI\nUwch Arolygydd Adeiladau Hanesyddol, Parciau a Gerddi\n/ Senior Inspector of Historic Buildings, Parks and Gardens\nAmgylchedd Hanesyddol / Historic Environment\nCadw\nLlywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government\nFfôn / Tel: [phone redacted]\n\n[https://i.ibb.co/CVwfkw2/Cadw-er-lles-pawb.png]<http://www.aelodaethcadw.gwasanaeth.llyw.cymru/>\n[https://i.ibb.co/NxJvcfW/For-us-all-to-keep.png]<http://www.cadwmembership.service.gov.wales/>\n\nYmunwch â Cadw<https://www.aelodaethcadw.gwasanaeth.llyw.cymru/>\nJoin Cadw<https://www.cadwmembership.service.gov.wales/>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]>\nSent: 04 July 2026 03:41\nTo: Longford, Amy (LCC - Cadw) <[email redacted]>\nSubject: Re: REVIEW of EOI ATISN 27021\n\n👍🏻\n\nOn Fri, 3 Jul 2026, 12:00 , <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler,\n\nMany thanks for the email.

Documentary basis of the original response\n\nThe original response stated that Great House Farm was visited and assessed by Cadw inspectors and that the building did not satisfy the statutory listing criteria.\n\nThe internal review now confirms that no assessment, report or case file relating to that decision has been located and further states that any relevant file may have been destroyed before being entered onto the electronic records system.\n\nPlease therefore identify the documentary basis upon which the original response concluded that the property was assessed and found not to meet the listing criteria.\n\nSpecifically:\n\n  *   Is that conclusion derived from a surviving record?\n  *   If so, please identify that record.\n  *   If not, please explain how that conclusion was reached.\n\n2. The inspection of 29 July 1988\n\nThe original disclosure included two photographs dated 29 July 1988.\n\nPlease confirm:\n\n  *   whether those photographs were taken as part of a formal listing inspection;\n  *   whether they formed part of a wider inspection file;\n  *   whether any inspection notes, recommendation forms, field notebooks, photographic registers or other associated records were created; and\n  *   if such records once existed, whether they are now believed to have been destroyed.\n\n3. Basis for the statement that records may have been destroyed\n\nThe review states that it is possible documentation dating from around 1988 was destroyed before being entered onto the electronic records system.\n\nPlease clarify whether that statement is based upon:\n\n  *   documentary evidence relating specifically to Great House Farm;\n  *   records management documentation such as retention schedules, destruction registers or disposal logs; or\n  *   a general understanding of historic records management practices.\n\nIf no destruction records exist for the relevant file series, please confirm this.\n\n4. Scope of the searches\n\nPlease confirm whether searches extended beyond the registered listing files to include, where appropriate:\n\n  *   ministerial correspondence;\n  *   senior officials' correspondence;\n  *   legal files;\n  *   inspector's working papers;\n  *   site visit records;\n  *   archaeological or conservation files;\n  *   policy records; and\n  *   correspondence with external organisations, including the Vale of Glamorgan Council, the former Welsh Office and other heritage bodies.\n\nIf any of these categories were not searched, I would be grateful if you could identify which.\n\n5. Welsh Government's position\n\nFinally, I would be appreciate clarification of the Welsh Government's position regarding Great House Farm.\n\nDoes the Welsh Government's position now amount to one of the following:\n\n  *   that Great House Farm was never considered for statutory protection;\n  *   that it was considered, but the records no longer survive; or\n  *   that it is no longer possible to determine whether consideration took place because the relevant records are unavailable?\n\nIf none of those accurately reflects your position, I would be grateful if you could explain what the Welsh Government's position is.\n\nThese questions arise directly from the original response and the internal review and are intended to clarify the historical record rather than seek the creation of new information.\n\nI look forward to your response.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Thu, 2 Jul 2026, 08:10 , <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler\n\nPlease see attached my review of your request noted ATISN 27021.\nPlease let me know if you have any questions or queries.\n\nKind Regards\n\nAmy Longford\n\n\n[https://i.ibb.co/59wkfSM/Cadw-large.png]\n\nAmy Longford IHBC MRTPI\nUwch Arolygydd Adeiladau Hanesyddol, Parciau a Gerddi\n/ Senior Inspector of Historic Buildings, Parks and Gardens\nAmgylchedd Hanesyddol / Historic Environment\nCadw\nLlywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government\nFfôn / Tel: [phone redacted]\n\n[https://i.ibb.co/CVwfkw2/Cadw-er-lles-pawb.png]<http://www.aelodaethcadw.gwasanaeth.llyw.cymru/>\n[https://i.ibb.co/NxJvcfW/For-us-all-to-keep.png]<http://www.cadwmembership.service.gov.wales/>\n\nYmunwch â Cadw<https://www.aelodaethcadw.gwasanaeth.llyw.cymru/>\nJoin Cadw<https://www.cadwmembership.service.gov.wales/>\n\n\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nSent: 16 June 2026 09:10\nTo: Longford, Amy (LCC - Cadw) <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nSubject: Re: REVIEW of EOI ATISN 27021\n\nI suspected so.\n\nThanks Amy.\n\nI look forward.\n\nSion\n\nOn Tue, 16 Jun 2026, 05:08 , <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler,\n\nMany thanks for the quick response and for confirming your position.

I appreciate the time taken to consider my request and the searches undertaken. However, having carefully reviewed the response alongside the earlier correspondence, I do not believe my clarified request has been fully addressed, nor do I believe the response adequately explains the scope of the searches that were undertaken.\n\nClarification process\nOn 28 May 2026 the Council advised that the relevant service area required clarification regarding the nature and reason for my enquiry.\n\nI provided that clarification on 7 June 2026.\nOn 9 June 2026 I was informed that my clarification had been forwarded to the Planning Department for consideration.\nGiven that sequence, I reasonably expected the final response to address the full scope of my clarified request. Instead, the response appears to have focused primarily upon identifying two planning applications and referring me to the Planning Register.\nThose applications are relevant, but they represent only one aspect of the information requested.\n\nScope of my request\nMy request concerns environmental information relating to the historic Great House Farm (Ty Mawr) estate, including land now forming Church View Close and adjoining land on the north side of Leckwith Road.\n\nThe request extends from approximately 1875 onwards where records exist.\nIt includes, where held:\n\nplanning records;\nofficer reports;\ncommittee reports and minutes;\nplanning consultation responses;\nplanning correspondence;\nenvironmental reports;\narchaeological reports;\nheritage assessments;\ndemolition records;\nredevelopment records;\nengineering drawings;\nhighways information;\ndrainage and sewer records;\nGIS and mapping datasets;\naerial photography;\nenvironmental assessments;\nland-related correspondence;\nestate management records;\nproperty records;\narchived files;\n\nand any other environmental information falling within Regulation 2(1) of the Environmental Information Regulations 2004.\n\nMatters that remain unanswered\nAlthough the response identifies two planning applications, it does not explain whether information was sought or considered in relation to several parts of my request.\n\nIn particular, it does not explain whether searches were undertaken for:\n\narchived paper planning files;\ncommittee reports and minutes;\nofficer reports;\nconsultation responses;\nsupporting technical documents;\ndemolition records relating to Great House Farm;\narchaeological reports held by the Council;\nheritage assessments;\nenvironmental assessments;\nengineering reports;\nhighways records;\ndrainage records;\nGIS datasets;\ncorrespondence relating to redevelopment;\nrecords inherited from predecessor authorities;\nrecords transferred to Glamorgan Archives or any other repository.\n\nAdequacy of the searches\nTo assist my understanding of the Council's response, I would be grateful if the internal review could explain:\n\nWhich Council departments were asked to search.\nWhich electronic record systems were searched.\nWhich paper archives were searched.\nWhether off-site archived records were searched.\nWhether records inherited from predecessor authorities were searched.\nWhether any GIS databases were searched.\nWhether searches extended beyond the Planning Register itself.\nWhether search terms or keywords were used and, if so, what they were.\nWhether date restrictions were applied.\nWhether any information was identified but withheld.\n\nInformation not held\nWhere the Council concludes that information is not held, I respectfully request that the review explains:\nwhich reasonable searches were undertaken before reaching that conclusion;\nwhether the information never existed;\nwhether it was transferred elsewhere;\nwhether it was destroyed;\nif destroyed, the applicable retention schedule and date of destruction;\nif transferred, the destination repository.\nInformation withheld\n\nIf any information has been withheld under the Environmental Information Regulations, I request that the review identifies:\nthe precise Regulation relied upon;\nthe reasons why that exception applies;\nwhere required, the public interest considerations;\nwhether partial disclosure or redaction was considered.\n\nPlanning Register\nThe response relies upon Regulation 6(1)(b) on the basis that planning information is publicly available.\n\nI would therefore appreciate clarification as to whether the online Planning Register contains the complete planning files, including:\n\nofficer reports;\ncommittee reports;\nconsultation responses;\ninternal memoranda;\ncorrespondence;\namendments;\nsupporting plans;\ntechnical reports;\nconditions;\nenforcement material (if any);\narchived documents.\nIf it does not, I request disclosure of any remaining environmental information held by the Council.\nGIS information\n\nThe response states that my request for GIS information lacked sufficient detail.\nFor the avoidance of doubt, I seek copies of any GIS datasets or historic mapping held by the Council relating to Great House Farm/Ty Mawr, including where available:\n\nparcel boundaries;\nplanning polygons;\nhistoric base mapping;\naerial imagery;\nhighway extents;\nrights of way;\ndrainage assets;\nland referencing;\nscanned plans attached to GIS records.\nPersonal data\nSeparately, to the extent that any records contain my own personal data, I request that this element of my request also be treated as a Subject Access Request under Article 15 UK GDPR.\n\nClosing\nI have sought throughout this process to clarify and narrow my request wherever asked to do so. My intention is simply to understand the complete environmental and administrative record held by the Council concerning Great House Farm/Ty Mawr.\n\nIf the Council has conducted comprehensive searches, I would be grateful if the internal review could explain those searches in sufficient detail to demonstrate that all reasonable steps have been taken. If further information is held, I request that it be disclosed unless a specific statutory exception applies.\nThank you for undertaking the internal review. I look forward to receiving the outcome.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sgt)\nRoyal Signals Cyber & Electronic Warfare Professional & Life Member\n[phone redacted]\n\nP.S. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Council holds environmental information relating to the historic Great House Farm/Ty Mawr estate prior to the 1989-1992 redevelopment-including records connected with the 1938 auction of the Cowbridge and Llandough Great House Farm estate, subsequent ownership, occupation, boundary changes, estate management, landscaping, trees, rights of way, demolition, redevelopment or associated land management-I request that such information also be included within the scope of this review.\n\nIn particular, if the Council holds any recorded information concerning the removal of a commemorative tree formerly situated at or associated with Great House Farm, including work orders, contractor instructions, arboricultural reports, highways or grounds maintenance records, photographs, correspondence, GIS records or file notes, I request disclosure of those records. If no such information is held, I would be grateful if the Council could confirm whether it has ever held such records, whether they have been transferred or destroyed, or whether another public authority is likely to hold them.\n\nFinally, if, during the course of the internal review, it becomes apparent that any part of my request has been interpreted too narrowly, I ask that this letter be treated as further clarification rather than a new request, so that all relevant recorded information held by the Council can be identified and considered for disclosure under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004.\n\nOn Tue, 7 Jul 2026, 10:51 FOI Unit,  > wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler\n\nThank you for your request for information about Great House Farm, Williams/Buckler Family, Llandough, Vale of Glamorgan and the further clarification that was received on the 7th June. Your request has been processed under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004.\n\nThe Council's Planning records have been reviewed and the Planning department has provided the following response:\n\nIn line with your clarification that was received on the 7th June, searches have been undertaken by the Council's Planning department in relation to the historic Great House Farm / Ty Mawr estate in Llandough. This includes land adjacent to and including Church View Close and the north side of Leckwith Road, with particular reference to the area identified within Land Registry title WA231076 and the timeframe indicated from 1875 onwards, where records exist.\n\nWe have been advised that the links to the planning records relating to the redevelopment of the site during the 1980s-1990s have previously been provided by colleagues in the Planning department. These records, including associated documentation, are publicly available via the Council's Planning Register and can be accessed using the relevant application reference numbers at View or Comment on a Planning Application .\nThis information is therefore excepted under Regulation 6(1)(b) of the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 - information already publicly available and easily accessible by other means.\n\nWhilst planning files may contain some archaeological information, it is also noted that archaeological records for the Vale of Glamorgan are maintained by Heneb (formerly Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust). We suggest that you contact Heneb directly to access relevant records. Details on how to contact them can be found at Heneb - The Trust for Welsh Archaeology . To the extent that the Council does not hold further archaeological reports beyond those contained within planning files, Regulation 12(4)(a) of the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (information not held) applies.\n\nFollowing searches of Planning records, no additional information has been identified within the scope of your request. You asked whether any records may have been transferred to Glamorgan Archives or otherwise. It is possible that historic material of this nature may be held externally, and you may therefore wish to contact Glamorgan Archives directly. Details on how to contact them can be found at https://glamarchives.gov.uk/contact/.\n\nFrom the clarification provided, the Council has been unable to identify which specific GIS datasets are being sought. Please provide further clarification regarding this and once received, we will consider this element further.\n\nAs previously advised, the Council does not hold records relating to the legal case of BP Properties Ltd v Buckler. Neither the Vale of Glamorgan Council nor its predecessor authorities were parties to that case, which appears to have been a private legal matter. Accordingly, information relating to those proceedings is not held by the Council.\n\nIf you are dissatisfied with the handling of your request, you have the right to ask for an internal review. Internal review requests should be made within 40 working days of the date of receipt of the response to your original letter and should be addressed to:\nc/o The Monitoring Officer - [email redacted] \nOr by post to The Monitoring Officer, Civic Offices, Holton Road, Barry, [postcode redacted].\n\nPlease remember to quote the reference number above in any future communications.\n\nIf you are not content with the outcome of the internal review, you have the right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision.\n\nThe Information Commissioner can be contacted at:\nInformation Commissioner's Office - Wales\nSecond Floor, Churchill House\nChurchill Way,\nCardiff\n[postcode redacted]\n\n[phone redacted] / Fax:[phone redacted]\n[email redacted] \n\nYours sincerely\n\nInformation Governance Officer / Swyddog Llywodraethu Gwybodaeth\nDirector's Office - Resources / Swyddfa'r Cyfarwyddwr - Adnoddau\nVale of Glamorgan Council / Cyngor Bro Morgannwg\ntel / ffôn: [phone redacted]\ne-mail / e-bost: [email redacted]  or [email redacted] \n\nConsider the environment.

Your request has been processed under the Environmental Information Regulations 2004.\n\nThe Council's Planning records have been reviewed and the Planning department has provided the following response:\n\nIn line with your clarification that was received on the 7th June, searches have been undertaken by the Council's Planning department in relation to the historic Great House Farm / Ty Mawr estate in Llandough. This includes land adjacent to and including Church View Close and the north side of Leckwith Road, with particular reference to the area identified within Land Registry title WA231076 and the timeframe indicated from 1875 onwards, where records exist.\n\nWe have been advised that the links to the planning records relating to the redevelopment of the site during the 1980s-1990s have previously been provided by colleagues in the Planning department. These records, including associated documentation, are publicly available via the Council's Planning Register and can be accessed using the relevant application reference numbers at View or Comment on a Planning Application<https://www.valeofglamorgan.gov.uk/en/living/planning_and_building_control/Planning/Planning-Applications/View-or-Comment-on-a-Planning-Application.aspx>.\nThis information is therefore excepted under Regulation 6(1)(b) of the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 - information already publicly available and easily accessible by other means.\n\nWhilst planning files may contain some archaeological information, it is also noted that archaeological records for the Vale of Glamorgan are maintained by Heneb (formerly Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust). We suggest that you contact Heneb directly to access relevant records. Details on how to contact them can be found at Heneb - The Trust for Welsh Archaeology<https://heneb.org.uk/>. To the extent that the Council does not hold further archaeological reports beyond those contained within planning files, Regulation 12(4)(a) of the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (information not held) applies.\n\nFollowing searches of Planning records, no additional information has been identified within the scope of your request. You asked whether any records may have been transferred to Glamorgan Archives or otherwise. It is possible that historic material of this nature may be held externally, and you may therefore wish to contact Glamorgan Archives directly. Details on how to contact them can be found at https://glamarchives.gov.uk/contact/.\n\nFrom the clarification provided, the Council has been unable to identify which specific GIS datasets are being sought. Please provide further clarification regarding this and once received, we will consider this element further.\n\nAs previously advised, the Council does not hold records relating to the legal case of BP Properties Ltd v Buckler. Neither the Vale of Glamorgan Council nor its predecessor authorities were parties to that case, which appears to have been a private legal matter. Accordingly, information relating to those proceedings is not held by the Council.\n\nIf you are dissatisfied with the handling of your request, you have the right to ask for an internal review. Internal review requests should be made within 40 working days of the date of receipt of the response to your original letter and should be addressed to:\nc/o The Monitoring Officer - [email redacted]\nOr by post to The Monitoring Officer, Civic Offices, Holton Road, Barry, [postcode redacted].\n\nPlease remember to quote the reference number above in any future communications.\n\nIf you are not content with the outcome of the internal review, you have the right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision.\n\nThe Information Commissioner can be contacted at:\nInformation Commissioner's Office - Wales\nSecond Floor, Churchill House\nChurchill Way,\nCardiff\n[postcode redacted]\n\n[phone redacted] / Fax:[phone redacted]\n[email redacted]\n\nYours sincerely\n\nInformation Governance Officer / Swyddog Llywodraethu Gwybodaeth\nDirector's Office - Resources / Swyddfa'r Cyfarwyddwr - Adnoddau\nVale of Glamorgan Council / Cyngor Bro Morgannwg\ntel / ffôn: [phone redacted]\ne-mail / e-bost: [email redacted] or [email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n\nConsider the environment.

Scope of the searches\n\nPlease confirm whether searches extended beyond the registered listing files to include, where appropriate:\n\n  *   ministerial correspondence;\n  *   senior officials' correspondence;\n  *   legal files;\n  *   inspector's working papers;\n  *   site visit records;\n  *   archaeological or conservation files;\n  *   policy records; and\n  *   correspondence with external organisations, including the Vale of Glamorgan Council, the former Welsh Office and other heritage bodies.\n\nIf any of these categories were not searched, I would be grateful if you could identify which.\n\n5. Welsh Government's position\n\nFinally, I would be appreciate clarification of the Welsh Government's position regarding Great House Farm.\n\nDoes the Welsh Government's position now amount to one of the following:\n\n  *   that Great House Farm was never considered for statutory protection;\n  *   that it was considered, but the records no longer survive; or\n  *   that it is no longer possible to determine whether consideration took place because the relevant records are unavailable?\n\nIf none of those accurately reflects your position, I would be grateful if you could explain what the Welsh Government's position is.\n\nThese questions arise directly from the original response and the internal review and are intended to clarify the historical record rather than seek the creation of new information.\n\nI look forward to your response.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Thu, 2 Jul 2026, 08:10 ,  > wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler\n\nPlease see attached my review of your request noted ATISN 27021.\nPlease let me know if you have any questions or queries.\n\nKind Regards\n\nAmy Longford\n\n\n[https://i.ibb.co/59wkfSM/Cadw-large.png]\n\nAmy Longford IHBC MRTPI\nUwch Arolygydd Adeiladau Hanesyddol, Parciau a Gerddi\n/ Senior Inspector of Historic Buildings, Parks and Gardens\nAmgylchedd Hanesyddol / Historic Environment\nCadw\nLlywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government\nFfôn / Tel: [phone redacted]\n\n[https://i.ibb.co/CVwfkw2/Cadw-er-lles-pawb.png] \n[https://i.ibb.co/NxJvcfW/For-us-all-to-keep.png] \n\nYmunwch â Cadw \nJoin Cadw \n\n\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler  >\nSent: 16 June 2026 09:10\nTo: Longford, Amy (LCC - Cadw)  >\nSubject: Re: REVIEW of EOI ATISN 27021\n\nI suspected so.\n\nThanks Amy.\n\nI look forward.\n\nSion\n\nOn Tue, 16 Jun 2026, 05:08 ,  > wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler,\n\nMany thanks for the quick response and for confirming your position.

I know museums have artifacts from our land in Llandough. \n\nSpecifically, I request copies of all:\n-Inventories, catalogues and asset registers.\n-Acquisition, disposal, loan and transfer records.\n-Provenance files and ownership records.\n-Photographs of items identified as originating from Great House Farm.\n-Correspondence concerning the identification, recovery, ownership or location of such items.\n-Internal reports, legal advice and memoranda relating to Great House Farm furniture or household effects.\n-Correspondence mentioning the Buckler or Williams families in connection with these items.\n-Records concerning any efforts by Cardiff Council or Cardiff Castle to trace, recover or secure items believed to have originated from Great House Farm.\n-Correspondence with the Bute Estate, museums, the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, the Reviewing Committee on the Export of Works of Art and Objects of Cultural Interest (RCEWA), Arts Council England or any other public authority regarding objects from Great House Farm.\n\nFor context, I am allegeing that my family was unlawfully dispossessed of Great House Farm through fraud, and that furniture and other historic possessions belonging to the family were consequently dispersed. It's possible the bailiffs from BP were also SAS soldiers. We are still gathering actionable intelligence. \n\nI appreciate that the Freedom of Information Act does not require the authority to determine the merits of that allegation. However, it is directly relevant to understanding why I seek the recorded information.\n\nI am currently developing a full-scale replica of Great House Farm in Patagonia, Argentina as a museum dedicated to preserving the history of the house, its occupants and its contents. Should records identify surviving items from the farm, whether held by Cardiff Council, Cardiff Castle, museums or other public institutions, I intend to pursue their lawful return or transfer so they may ultimately be reunited with the reconstructed Great House Farm museum. This statement is provided solely as context for my request and does not seek a determination under the Freedom of Information Act.\n\nIf any information is withheld, please identify each exemption relied upon and explain why it applies, including the outcome of any public interest test where required.\n\nIf another public authority is more likely to hold the requested information, I would be grateful if you would transfer the request or advise me accordingly.\n\nI look forward to your response within the statutory time limit.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\n\n\n\n\n------------------\n\nIwan ap Dafydd Pennaeth Ymholiadau - Head of Enquiries Gwasanaeth Ymholiadau: http://www.llgc.org.uk/holi Enquiries Service: http://www.llgc.org.uk/enquire Ffon/Tel: [phone redacted] Hapus i gyfathrebu yn Gymraeg neu Saesneg | Happy to communicate in Welsh or English *Lluniwyd yr ateb i'ch ymholiad heb gymorth gan AI - the answer to your enquiry was made without the aid of AI\n\n\n\nThis email is sent from LibAnswers in relationship to ticket #9603180.\n\nRead our privacy policy. <https://springshare.com/privacy.html>"},{"id":"gm-19f246ba709c99af","subject":"Re: REVIEW of EOI ATISN 27021","name":"Re: REVIEW of EOI ATISN 27021","date":"2026-07-02T20:01:02Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19f246ba709c99af.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19ecbf50d494e1ce-view-of-eoi-atisn-27021","scopeTopics":["cadw"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["cadw"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19ecbf50d494e1ce","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"cadw","name":"Welsh Government / Cadw"}],"refs":["ATISN27021"],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19f246ba709c99af.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Ms Longford,\n\nThank you for your letter of 2 July 2026 responding to the internal review\nof my Freedom of Information request (ATISN 27021) concerning Great House\nFarm, Llandough.\n\nI appreciate the additional searches undertaken during the review and the\nexplanation provided regarding the physical record series examined.\n\nHowever, having considered both the original response of 11 June 2026 and\nthe outcome of the internal review, I would be be grateful if you could\nclarify a number of points which appear to remain unresolved.\n\n*1. Documentary basis of the original response*\n\nThe original response stated that Great House Farm was visited and assessed\nby Cadw inspectors and that the building did not satisfy the statutory\nlisting criteria.\n\nThe internal review now confirms that no assessment, report or case file\nrelating to that decision has been located and further states that any\nrelevant file may have been destroyed before being entered onto the\nelectronic records system.\n\nPlease therefore identify the documentary basis upon which the original\nresponse concluded that the property was assessed and found not to meet the\nlisting criteria.\n\nSpecifically:\n\n   - Is that conclusion derived from a surviving record?\n   - If so, please identify that record.\n   - If not, please explain how that conclusion was reached.\n\n*2.

I know museums have artifacts\nfrom our land in Llandough.\n\nSpecifically, I request copies of all:\n\n   1. Inventories, catalogues and asset registers.\n   2. Acquisition, disposal, loan and transfer records.\n   3. Provenance files and ownership records.\n   4. Photographs of items identified as originating from Great House Farm.\n   5. Correspondence concerning the identification, recovery, ownership or\n   location of such items.\n   6. Internal reports, legal advice and memoranda relating to Great House\n   Farm furniture or household effects.\n   7. Correspondence mentioning the Buckler or Williams families in\n   connection with these items.\n   8. Records concerning any efforts by Cardiff Council or Cardiff Castle\n   to trace, recover or secure items believed to have originated from Great\n   House Farm.\n   9. Correspondence with the Bute Estate, museums, the Department for\n   Culture, Media and Sport, the Reviewing Committee on the Export of Works of\n   Art and Objects of Cultural Interest (RCEWA), Arts Council England or any\n   other public authority regarding objects from Great House Farm.\n\nFor context, I am allegeing that my family was unlawfully dispossessed of\nGreat House Farm through fraud, and that furniture and other historic\npossessions belonging to the family were consequently dispersed. It's\npossible the bailiffs from BP were also SAS soldiers. We are still\ngathering actionable intelligence.\n\nI appreciate that the Freedom of Information Act does not require the\nauthority to determine the merits of that allegation. However, it is\ndirectly relevant to understanding why I seek the recorded information.\n\nI am currently developing a full-scale replica of Great House Farm in\nPatagonia, Argentina as a museum dedicated to preserving the history of the\nhouse, its occupants and its contents. Should records identify surviving\nitems from the farm, whether held by Cardiff Council, Cardiff Castle,\nmuseums or other public institutions, I intend to pursue their lawful\nreturn or transfer so they may ultimately be reunited with the\nreconstructed Great House Farm museum. This statement is provided solely as\ncontext for my request and does not seek a determination under the Freedom\nof Information Act.\n\nIf any information is withheld, please identify each exemption relied upon\nand explain why it applies, including the outcome of any public interest\ntest where required.\n\nIf another public authority is more likely to hold the requested\ninformation, I would be grateful if you would transfer the request or\nadvise me accordingly.\n\nI look forward to your response within the statutory time limit.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)"},{"id":"gm-19f2461b853376c3","subject":"Re: Buckler - 260607013 - FOI - response","name":"Re: Buckler - 260607013 - FOI - response","date":"2026-07-02T19:50:09Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19f2461b853376c3.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19f18a3ec528e53f-buckler-260607013-foi-response","scopeTopics":["moj"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["moj"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19f18a3ec528e53f","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"moj","name":"Ministry of Justice / HMCTS"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19f2461b853376c3.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Sirs/ Ma'am,\n\nSee below.\nGood day.\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n[phone redacted]\n\n\n\n\n\nOn Thu, 2 Jul 2026, 08:48 Disclosure Team,  \nwrote:\n\n> OFFICIAL - SENSITIVE\n>\n> Good afternoon,\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your email.

I am raising concerns\nabout what could amount to a major scandal in the manner in which my family\nand I were dispossessed of land there. Your lack of response, together with\na number of unusual or contradictory responses I have received from other\nparties connected with the matter, has not reassured me that there is a\nwillingness to examine these issues openly.\n\nIf evidence was destroyed, if mistakes were made, or if fraud or\nconcealment occurred, I am sure you would prefer to assist in establishing\nthe truth rather than be perceived as defending or perpetuating any\nwrongdoing.\n\nWould you at least be willing to help with the more limited task of\nidentifying when the tree planted by my family was removed?

Its removal could arguably represent the destruction of\nevidence connected with that claim.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler\nRetired Sergeant"},{"id":"gm-19efdbb70ed76424","subject":"Automatic reply: Complaint of maladministration – defective notice, enforcement process, and loss of opportunity (Great House Farm, Llandough)","name":"Automatic reply: Complaint of maladministration – defective notice, enforcement process, and loss of opportunity (Great House Farm, Llandough)","date":"2026-06-25T07:42:35Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19efdbb70ed76424.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19efdbacc43cd375-automatic-reply-complaint-of-maladministration-defective-notice-enforcement-process-and-loss-of-opportunity-great-house-","scopeTopics":["mp"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["mp"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19efdbacc43cd375","direction":"received","from":"DOUGHTY, Stephen","institutions":[{"id":"mp","name":"Member of Parliament"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19efdbb70ed76424.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Hello,\n\nThank you for your email.

It concerns\nthe *administrative conduct of public bodies*, including notice procedures,\nenforcement execution, and heritage-related decision-making.\n1. Defective and misleading notice process\n\nI believe that formal notices issued during the relevant period were\nmaterially defective, including being addressed to “Mrs Buckler” rather\nthan the legal occupier, Mary Williams.\n\nThis created a situation where the intended recipient was not properly\nidentified in their correct legal capacity, which I believe resulted in a *loss\nof meaningful opportunity to respond, challenge, or seek suspension of\nenforcement action* at the relevant time.\n2. Loss of opportunity to contest enforcement\n\nAs a result of the above notice issues, I believe the family was deprived\nof a genuine opportunity to take timely legal or procedural steps to\nprevent or delay enforcement action, including demolition.\n\nThis constitutes, in my view, procedural unfairness in the administration\nof enforcement.\n3. Heritage and regulatory oversight concerns\n\nI also believe that relevant public authorities had knowledge of the\nhistorical and archaeological significance of the site, including Roman and\nearly medieval features, but failed to take adequate protective action\nprior to demolition.\n\nThis raises concerns of *regulatory failure in the exercise of statutory\nheritage responsibilities*.\n4. Irreversible loss and harm\n\nThe outcome of these processes was the complete demolition of the property\nin December 1988, resulting in:\n\n   - irreversible loss of a long-occupied family home\n   - destruction of potential historical and archaeological material\n   - loss of personal and family property and records\n\nI believe this outcome resulted from administrative failings rather than a\nfair and properly informed process.\n------------------------------\n5. What I am asking the Ombudsman to do\n\nI am requesting that the Ombudsman:\n\n   1. Investigate whether there was maladministration in:\n      - service of notices and identification of the correct legal occupier\n      - execution of enforcement actions\n      - handling of heritage-related responsibilities by relevant\n      authorities\n   2. Determine whether these actions caused a loss of opportunity to\n   prevent or challenge demolition.\n   3. Consider whether a finding of maladministration is appropriate, and\n   whether this should lead to:\n      - a formal apology\n      - a recommendation for ex gratia compensation\n      - any further remedial or restorative measures within the Ombudsman’s\n      remit\n\n------------------------------\n6. Supporting material\n\nI am in the process of obtaining further documentary evidence via Freedom\nof Information requests and archival sources, including:\n\n   - enforcement and court execution records\n   - local authority and heritage body correspondence\n   - any relevant ministerial communications\n\nI will provide these as they become available.\n------------------------------\n\nI submit this complaint in good faith and seek an independent review of\nadministrative fairness and decision-making, not a reopening of any\njudicial determination.\n\nRegards, Sion Buckler (Ret'd Sgt)"},{"id":"gm-19eee71b973f9c75","subject":"RE: FOI: Great House Farm, Llandough","name":"RE: FOI: Great House Farm, Llandough","date":"2026-06-22T08:28:07Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19eee71b973f9c75.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19ee6a2303d483b9-foi-great-house-farm-llandough","scopeTopics":["moj"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["moj"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19ee6a2303d483b9","direction":"received","from":"Disclosure Team","institutions":[{"id":"moj","name":"Ministry of Justice / HMCTS"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19eee71b973f9c75.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Good morning,\n\nWe are processing your request under reference 260607013.

And thanks for your prompt reply.\n\nPlease also clarify whether any searches were undertaken beyond deeds and title documents, as my enquiry extends to a wider range of historical materials relating to Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough.\n\nFamily records and longstanding local accounts indicate that a copy of the conveyance or land transfer associated with Daniel Thomas and the Bute Estate may at one time have been available through Cardiff's library or local studies collections. The Williams family relied upon documentary evidence relating to the farm during disputes concerning occupation and ownership during the twentieth century, and family members consistently referred to such records.\n\nI therefore respectfully request that Cathays Branch and Heritage Library, or the appropriate Cardiff Council department, undertake or arrange a search of any relevant holdings, including:\n\n• Local studies collections and vertical files. • Heritage and local history indexes. • Newspaper cuttings collections. • Photographic collections. • Map collections. • Catalogue entries and accession records. • References to Great House Farm, Ty Mawr, Llandough. • References to Daniel Thomas, the Bute Estate, quarry agreements, land exchanges, or conveyances. • References to John Williams, Mary Williams, or other members of the Williams family associated with the farm. • Records indicating whether any such material was transferred to Glamorgan Archives or another repository.\n\nIn particular, if any relevant material was formerly held by Cardiff Libraries or Cardiff Council but subsequently transferred, withdrawn, re-catalogued, or otherwise relocated, I would be grateful for any information identifying where those records are now held and any catalogue references that may assist my research.\n\nIf this request would be more appropriately handled under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 or Environmental Information Regulations 2004, please treat it accordingly or transfer it internally to the relevant department.\n\nThe purpose of my enquiry is to identify surviving historical records relating to Great House Farm and the Williams family's connection to the property. Any guidance, references, finding aids, catalogue entries, or archive references would be greatly appreciated.\n\nThank you for your assistance. I look forward to hearing from you.\n\nDiolch yn fawr, Regards,\n\nSion Buckler Esq.

Albeit I left the military after only a few years to\npursue a career in business and the international private security group I\nhave built up today. I have little to no business in UK.\n\nWhat I am about to tell you in this email might seem absurd or nonsense.\nBut I say in advance, I'm a former military cyber and electronic warfare\nprofessional, I left my career in the Royal Signals with full honours. I've\ncompleted 22 years in Oath, I'm bona fide. And my last employer in 2024 was\nthe Welsh Government/ Vale of Glamorgan Council. Via the direct payment\nadult care scheme. It's not UFO's or aliens. Although my military records\nwill confirm I did do an attachment at the undeground UFO city in Coresham.\nOn the official secrets act. But it wasn't as exiting or interesting as\nthat sounds. I was just routine circuits and managing cryptography to\nWhitehall.\nI write to you because I would like the conditions to be more favourable so\nthat I might actually get to enjoy my home there, as your constituent. I\ntry and try and try to speak to MP's and I've been ignored for decades. In\n2007 when I came out of uniform I could go an have a cup of tea with John\nSmith and talk. He ripped me off and all the soldiers I employed in my\nfirst company, saying that the £14Billion project at St Athan would happen\nand we should all buy houses there. Mine was 40 Lombard Street. Not only\nwas all that \"Biggest single investment in Wales\" a sham. But my morgage\ncompany (Manchester Building Society) didn't honour a payment holiday, made\nme repay it as an arrears. Which I did. Then demanded £3.5k for admin for\nletters they sent. I offered £2k. They they wired back my payment for\narrears, took possession of my house, billed me for the auction shortfall\nmany multiple times the \"arrears\" I'd already paid. Then tried to place\nthat as a lien on my nans house, who wasn't even a guarantor. I still don't\nhave my house back. But the omnibusman did side with me/ my family. I want\nmy house back! Also there's no record of me ever even having owned it. But\nI did 2006 - 2012.\nMy grandad Ray Smith, Chief Superintendent Gordon Spikings in the TV series\nDempsey and Makepeace, bought the house we have there in Dinas Powys, after\nfilming in the Exodus movie with Paul Newman, so I'm told. Again I'd love\nto be there at our house, but things just get more insane.\nMy 36 day old boy was then abducted in 2013, from Stockeld Park in Leeds. I\nwas then forced into exile until 2022 after reporting video evidence I\nobtained of rituals being performed on him, which resulted in 3 lots of\npolice, 5 military and a helicopter being sent to try kidnapping and\nsilencing me. I escaped/ evaded as I'm a military warfare professional and\nalso no charges or warrants existed.  I have since had no choice but to\nconsidered myself a counter officer in a literal civil war waged on me and\nus. My sons whereabouts or status still unknown, is he even still alive? ..\nif so he has been kept from me and my family since his abduction. It's\ngoing on 13 years and its inhumane. ECHR also won't reply. My former MP\nwouldn't even sign the EDM for father's to have rights in 2014.\nSo I remarried and started a new family. I literally gave up fighting the\ndemonic realm you call UK, after about 8 years of the state sponsored\neffort to cover that up.  Nobody, to this day: year 13, has provided me\nwith the only answer I have asked since my 36 day old boys abduction from\nmy former home in Stockeld Park Leeds in 2013: How and where is my son? All\nthe ownus is placed on me to pay for a blood test, pay lawyers, pay this\nand that. If alive, my son is abducted and held hostage. I'm not paying his\nabductors or abusers or the regime holding him hostage or forcing him\nfatherless when he's not. The decade+ long campaign to frame, criminalise,\ndiscredit, kidnap, silence, ostracise, alienate, ignore me on this matter\nis abhorrent. It's a depth of evil beyond anything else I've known. Was he\nmurdered? What happened after he was abducted? It is the most insane\nsituation how all that has happened since he was taken was just campaign\nafter campaign to kidnap and silence me. The other witness at my home that\nday. Another soldier I served with, who brought his infant daughter to meet\nmine, hasn't even ever been asked for a statement.\nAfter exhonoration, a clear DBS and returning from exile and New York in\n2022; to care for my nan (who was on end of life due to vaccines, with no\ncarers able to sufficiently reach Monknash from Barry) I was expected to\nsleep in a tent for a year, which I did, after not being able to afford\nhousing abroad and in UK too,  at such short notice of return. All the\nwhile 97 Afghans were being secrely housed outside our 11 home village up\nthe road in St Athan airbase. And given tens of times more tax I was\nexpected to pay per year, to help them get started.\nOne afghan was in the garden where my ill grandmother lay dying from\nvsccine poisoning while one afghan was in the garden trying to steal my\ndog. I reported and complained. Like with my housing denial of asistant\ncomplaint. And both were ignored or fobbed off. I already keep my daughter\noff that island, after Southport and other incidents. But I also have\nexported my dog off that small (formerly pale) island too, to my wife and\ndaughter at our place in the Caribbean. Which was another huge scandal of\nextortion and racketeering which I again reported to my MP and nothing\nhappened.\nI also raised concerns arms or illegals might have been being smuggled into\nMonknash beach. Our families former livery yard there since 2009, received\nan abrupt termination of our lease and we had to move. After a lot of\nsuspicious activity at the beach car park and beach we controlled there.\nWhich I have on CCTV and my axon bodycam recordings. So I say again, I\nwould like to exist on my ancestral birthland as an indigenous Briton. With\nmy young family. But I find it untenable and have to fly in and out like\nits an active war zone there. To keep myself and my family safe.\nAnd in all instances it appears to be the British State waging civil war on\nus. I was shot at one time before while I was back, on the top road of\nBarry. Driving between my grandparents former house in Dinas Powys and my\nnan at my mums former place in Monknash. The craziness just doesn't end. I\ndared to have a McDonald's too and they racketeer there too, charging for\nbags after you make your order and drive forward. When they either need to\nbe provided for free or you need to at least be asked. When I safely make\nit back abroad and off that lawless island, which involved me building\nmyself my own man-portable ocean pack packraft as a contingency to get my\ndog out too, after legal export attempts were unlawfully hindered last\nminute (like with the notary in Milton Keynes) I have to spend weeks even\nmonths clawing back money I get scammed out of.\nBy things like my former car insurance company in Bristol, or the airline\nchanging my flight last minute and charging me hundreds extra falsy saying\nI requested the change and if I didn't like it I would need to cancel. I\nspent months going through their regulators in Europe to get that back.\nIt's a perilous experience for me in Britain. It's literally like another\ntour of the middle east to get in and out unscathed. And takes too long to\nbe made whole after making it safely off those shores and open borders,\nexcept to the boxed in, kill boxed Britons trying to exit  with our pets,\nmoney, children and businesses.\nI have no doubt you're busy, but I do require your consideration on all of\nthe above. But more importantly possible fraud, concealment, and even\nmilitary action I might have discovered, used against my family, to\nbrutally dispossess us of our former 800 year old home in Llandough back in\n1988—a home we owned and occupied since 1667.\nI enclose the ECHR but also my criticism of it in a separate PDF. I am\nstill research this case and the scandals don't end. I just unearthing more\nand more and its looking very damning for both the UK Govenrment and BP.\nI was a child in this 1988 battlefield and warzone. I was inside the house\nwhen poleaxes hacked our windows and BP bailiffs began demolishing our\n800-year-old home while we and our pregnant mother were still inside.\nI am now 41 years old. I have studied this case and collected evidence for\n20 years, alongside my military career in cyber and electronic warfare. I\nam now a life member of the Royal Signals and left my career with full\nhonors. I also completed the last of my 22 years of service under oath,\nemployed under the Vale Council and Welsh Government in 2024 within adult\ncare. I am bona fide. This followed eight years in exile on a Caribbean\nisland between those two periods of employment, after I exposed another\nmajor scandal in Yorkshire in 2013.\nI am now working to formally collect and present evidence. I am very\ndisappointed by the gatekeeping, lies, obstruction, and continued\nwithholding of information from various departments like Cadw, the National\nArchives, and the Vale Council. Furthermore, regarding the information I\nhave received, I am horrified by the gaps in records, peculiar\ncircumstances, missing information, and the general inaccessibility of\npublic records.\nI am just trying to understand what happened here; I require the whole\ntruth. I will put the evidence in chronological order on a website that\ncannot be taken offline, censored, or removed. The source code will be\nbacked up to a 1,000-year film in a Scandinavian mine as part of GitHub’s\nArctic Code Vault program. With this clear reconstruction of the evidence\nand story, I can also seek legal adjudication and remedy.\nWe maintain our absolute claim to the land, which was passed from my\ngrandmother to my father, and then to me and my expanding family. As you\nare well aware, fraud and concealment unravel everything, which I suspect\nthey will in this case.\nIf you could instruct all parties to be more forthcoming with records held\non me, my family, and our former family home since 1667, we would be most\ngrateful.\nThus far, I see a clear miscarriage of justice, court mistakes, and\nprocedural unfairness. BP and the British Government/United Kingdom were\nsynonymous in 1987 too, as part of that £7 billion deal.\nI believe this case involving my family may have been part of a larger\nnationwide campaign that likely happened to many other families.\nFurthermore, having recently worked closely with law firms in London on the\nPCP car finance scandal, I see a parallel in this matter, with my family's\ncase serving as a catalyst.\nFrom what I can gather so far from the information and family testimony I\nhave (including five aunties, my dad, an uncle, my mum, and cousins), my\nworking theory is that my grandad, Frederick Buckler, pawned his wife's (my\nnan, Mrs. Williams) virtual freehold to the surrounding farmland. However,\nthe house, garden, and immediate land may have been a separate plot to\nwhich we did obtain absolute title from Bute following a quarrying deal,\nwhich granted permission for quarrying/limeworks in exchange for that title.\nThat title was later stolen from our house. I have the criminal's name, and\nI suspect there is a police record of him. There were numerous court\nhearings where Mary won, but she was later unable to present the title\n(though its prior existence was not denied). The copy from the public\nlibrary was gone too. My mum's testimony states she went back to retrieve\nthe index card almost immediately afterward, but that had been taken as\nwell. Consequently, the dispossession escalated, with BP registering our\nland in their names at the Land Registry in 1983. This was entirely based\non the office being willfully ignorant (I am currently in talks with them)\nand BP withholding information.\nAdditionally, my grandmother’s convenient death occurred within the\ntwo-week window she would have had to challenge BP merging her stolen title\ninto their surrounding land title. Later, in 1987 (the landmark case *BP\nvs. Buckler*, 1987), the judge is quoted as saying my nan \"conceived the\nnotion\" she owned it. He claimed that had she challenged BP's license\nletters, the outcome would have been different. Yet, she is well-documented\nas challenging the BP Pension Trust in the press, via a petition with 1,100\nsignatures, and in the 1975 conveyance. The judge then claimed that even if\nshe challenged them, it would not count because the plaintiff was BP\nProperties, not the BP Pension Trust, asserting they were two separate\ncompanies. Thus, BP won possession.\nHowever, no court has ever ruled against our claim of ownership, and we\nhave never willingly surrendered it. No court has ever ruled that BP owns\nit. When my dad appealed that ruling, arguing that the BP Pension Trust\nshould have been the plaintiff, the same judge dismissed his appeal by\nstating that BP Pension and BP Properties were effectively the same\ncompany. It was a \"heads they win, tails we lose\" scenario.\nI believe the possession of our surrounding farmland is dubious and highly\narguable. I recognize that my grandmother, a disabled widow and pensioner,\ndid not have it in her to single-handedly defend everything against three\nBP companies, their predecessor Western Ground Rents (whom Parliament even\nnoted on the record as crooks), and the bias of its shareholder, the\nBritish Government.\nBut the possession of our home and garden is an outright outrage—not just\ndue to the human rights violations and the possible use of the military\nafter Thatcher told the Land Registry to look the other way, as Cadw and\nmany others appear to have done. The press also labeled us squatters and\nsuppressed reports. I only recently obtained the ITV report from 1988,\nwhich—even if not actively suppressed for over three decades—fails to\nmention that my mum was pregnant with three toddlers when her shoulder was\ndislocated while serving the invaders a writ after the siege.\nOur home and garden were evidently a separate plot. In the worst-case\nscenario, we should have been granted an easement or thoroughfare across\nthe surrounding land to access our home and garden. Instead, we faced\nfraud, concealment, procedural unfairness, court \"mistakes,\" and willful\nignorance—such as the Land Registry looking at the 1974 land dispute case\nto verify BP's claim without acknowledging that our land was actively in\ndispute.\nFurthermore, the Land Registry claims the 1987 ruling justifies their\nactions in 1983, yet the 1987 ruling relies on their actions from 1983. The\n1987 ruling is also retrospective in how it validates the invalid license\nletters from 1974. The only class in this entire act came from my disabled,\nwidow-pensioner grandmother, and my terminally ill dad before his\nconveniently timed death following his dismissed appeal, demolished home,\ndetention without charge, violated human rights (being ripped from his\nhospital bed), and blocked ECHR access.\nWill you take this on? Will you instruct the Senedd to launch a public\ninquiry into this?\nI am speaking through a immense amount of trauma to report this to you. We\nhave never received any counseling or reparations following these events.\nMy family has not dared to speak up or out because they remain terrorized.\nMy younger sister, now 40 years old, had nightmares earlier this year when\nI brought it up with her. My mum and aunties experience meltdowns and\nshutdowns whenever I try to discuss it with them.\nIf the SAS was deployed against my family in 1988 and we had known, I might\nnot have chosen to play a part in rescuing those two SAS soldiers from an\nIraqi prison and execution in 2005—an operation I believe I was deeply\ninvolved in, if not instrumental to.\nRight now, it feels as though my family is being held hostage. The 20\nhouses built on our land could be construed as accommodation for an\noccupying network. Consider the fact that this land is Wales's largest and\nmost significant burial site, home to a Roman villa and a monastery, the\nplace where Marconi stayed with us while inventing the radio, and where\nPeerless Jim fought his first fight in our barn. The fact that none of this\nis marked with so much as a park bench plaque above ground only affirms\nwhat I am saying.\nIn the National Eisteddfod, we have a ceremony where a sword is withdrawn\nthree times, and each time the crowd is asked, \"Is there peace?\" If the\ncrowd answers yes, the sword is resheathed. As a certified, experienced\nmilitary commander and warfare professional, I believe it is asked three\ntimes so you can look into the eyes of the people to see if they are\nanswering under duress, such as at gunpoint.\nInterestingly, that ceremony now feels hijacked and insincere, as people\nare being attacked in Britain, yet the crowd still declares peace. In WWII,\nthe ceremony was canceled during air raids and bombings because crowds\ncould not sincerely say there was peace.\nI am Welsh—an indigenous, white Welsh Christian national. When I visit my\nfamily and see them suffer meltdowns or nightmares just discussing this\ncase, I know there is no peace. My sword, metaphorically speaking, is not\nbeing resheathed. This is not to say I am going to hijack a BP fuel truck\nand drive it in flames into the properties on our land; I am bona fide and\noperate with honor. But I am certainly not standing for this situation.\nNothing could be done about this for the last few decades, nor during the\n20 years I have spent collecting evidence to understand it. But two things\nhave changed: I discovered extensive evidence of fraud and concealment, and\nwe are now in the age of recursive, self-improving AI—and I am a cyber and\nelectronic warfare professional.\nI do not even have to depend solely on traditional methods anymore. Last\nweek, my system of AI tools discovered a social media comment from many\nyears ago mentioning a photo of our farm inside the disabled toilet of a\npub. I sent someone there, and low and behold, it was still on the wall: a\nclear aerial image of the Roman villa remains, taken between the demolition\nof our home and the construction of the 20 houses.\nI believe that with proper cooperation, I can reconstruct the timeline of\nthis story with all supporting evidence for the public record. While the\nBritish state continues to erase and suppress our place in\nhistory—including Marconi, Peerless Jim, the Roman villa (possibly where\nMagnus Maximus once resided), and the monastery beneath it—the Welsh\nsettlement here in Argentina actively celebrates Welsh culture and history.\nThis is why I intend to build an augmented reality tour guide for\nLlandough, Wales. I am confident I can regularly get boots on the ground\nthere to see what once stood, despite the current lack of physical\ninformation. I have at least 50 personnel back home invested in my business\nwho would love to support this. I am also intent on forming a *Colonia\nLlandough* or *New Llandough* here, with an exact replica of Great House\nFarm at its center, alongside a potential Netflix documentary to tell the\nstory right.\nIt is vital to me and the public that this story be told accurately while\nthe previous generation of my family is still alive to participate.\nRegards,\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\nCyber and Electronic Warfare Professional\nLife Member: Royal Corps of Signals\nOBO Williams/Buckler Estate (Est. 1667)\nhttps://bpvsbuckler.datro.xyz"},{"id":"gm-19ebb30b74546fa8","subject":"[NLW English] Subject: Research Enquiry - Great House Farm, Llandough (Williams/Buckler, Bute Estates, Daniel Thomas)","name":"[NLW English] Subject: Research Enquiry - Great House Farm, Llandough (Williams/Buckler, Bute Estates, Daniel Thomas)","date":"2026-06-12T09:36:31Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19ebb30b74546fa8.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19ea148fc3e83020-nlw-english-subject-research-enquiry-great-house-farm-llandough-williams-buckler-bute-estates-daniel-thomas","scopeTopics":["nlw"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["nlw"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19ea148fc3e83020","direction":"received","from":"National Library of Wales","institutions":[{"id":"nlw","name":"National Library of Wales"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19ebb30b74546fa8.json","textStatus":"available","text":"--# Teipiwch eich ateb uwchben y llinell hon #--\n------------------\n\nRhydian Davies\n\nJun 12 2026, 10:36AM via System\n\nDear Sion\n\nThank you for your enquiry.

The\nproperty was historically known as Great House Farm or Ty Mawr and stood in\nLlandough near Cardiff.\n\nThe reference to Daniel Thomas comes from historical accounts of the\nquarrying and land transactions affecting the estate. My understanding is\nthat there was a conveyance or land exchange involving Daniel Thomas and\nthe Bute Estate which has been referenced in later histories of the area.\nUnfortunately I do not yet have a deed reference number, which is one of\nthe reasons I am trying to trace the original records.\n\nI am particularly interested in:\n• Any references to Great House Farm / Ty Mawr, Llandough. • Estate records\nrelating to the Bute Estate and Daniel Thomas. • Local history files,\nnewspaper cuttings, photographs or manuscripts relating to the Williams\nfamily of Great House Farm. • Material relating to the historic house,\nfarm, manor, coach house, estate, quarrying activities, or later demolition.\n\nThank you also for directing me to Glamorgan Archives. I have been making\nenquiries there and will continue to do so.\nIf any estate maps, local history files, manuscript collections, newspaper\nindexes, parish material, or catalogues come to mind which may contain\nreferences to Great House Farm, I would be very grateful for any further\nsuggestions.\n\nThank you again for your assistance.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n\nOn Thu, 11 Jun 2026, 08:17 Library Central, <[email redacted]>\nwrote:\n\n> Hi Sion,\n>\n> based on the information you provided, I couldn't find any relevant\n> materials among the documents held at Cardiff Central Library.

However, I am not satisfied that the searches undertaken were\nsufficient to establish that no other relevant records are held or can be\naccounted for.\n\nThe response states that Great House Farm was visited and assessed for\nlisting by Cadw inspectors, but that the only surviving records are two\nphotographs. It further states that any associated records may have been\ntransferred to the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments\nof Wales or destroyed under the Public Records Act 1958.\n\nI respectfully submit that this conclusion appears difficult to reconcile\nwith the contemporary evidence.\n\nContemporary newspaper reports from December 1988 record that:\n\nCadw was actively considering emergency listing (\"spot-listing\") procedures\nin relation to Great House Farm;\n\nCadw inspectors visited the site;\nCadw assessed the architectural and archaeological significance of the\nproperty;\nCadw communicated a decision that the building did not warrant statutory\nprotection.\n\nThese activities would ordinarily be expected to generate records such as\ninspection notes, recommendations, assessments, correspondence, memoranda,\nlisting files, briefing notes, internal communications, or decision records.\n\nIn addition, a surviving family witness who was present during the\ninspection recalls that a written assessment was produced and supplied to\nthe family. The witness recalls that the assessment concluded that,\nalthough the site was old, the building had undergone substantial\nalteration over the centuries and was therefore not considered sufficiently\nsignificant for listing.\n\nThis recollection appears broadly consistent with the reasoning attributed\nto Cadw in contemporary press reports.\nI therefore request clarification of the following:\n\nWere searches undertaken for inspection notes, site notes, assessment\nreports, recommendations, listing files, briefing papers, internal\nmemoranda, correspondence, and decision records relating to Great House\nFarm?\nWere accession records, transfer schedules, disposal schedules, or archive\ncatalogues searched to determine whether such records once existed?\n\nIf records were transferred to RCAHMW, please identify any transfer\nreferences, accession numbers, file references, or other metadata recording\nthat transfer.\nIf records were destroyed, please identify the disposal authority,\nretention schedule, and date of destruction.\n\nIf no written assessment, recommendation, report, or decision record ever\nexisted, please explain how Cadw reached and communicated conclusions\nregarding the architectural and archaeological significance of the property.\n\nI am not seeking reconsideration of the 1988 listing decision itself.\nRather, I seek clarification regarding the apparent absence of records\nrelating to a matter that was publicly reported at the time as being under\nactive consideration by Cadw and which resulted in a communicated decision.\n\nThank you for undertaking an internal review.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergenant)\nCyber & Electronic Warfare Professional\nLife Member of the Royal Signals\n\n\nOn Thu, 11 Jun 2026, 12:54 , <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Mr Buckler,\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your request which I received on 1 June 2026, and your\n> follow-up request received on 8 June 2026.\n>\n>\n>\n> Please see attached response and documents.\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you,\n>\n>\n>\n> Mike Weatherhead\n>\n>\n> Arweinydd Tîm Gwaith Achosion / Casework Team Leader\n>\n> Polisi a Gwarchod / Policy and Protection\n>\n> Arolygiaeth yr Amgylchedd Hanesyddol / Historic Environment Inspectorate\n>\n> Cadw\n>\n>\n>\n>\n>\n>\n>\n>\n>\n>\n>\n> *From:* Weatherhead, Michael (LCC - Cadw)\n> *Sent:* 01 June 2026 16:59\n> *To:* 'Sion Buckler' <[email redacted]>\n> *Subject:* RE: Great House Farm/ Church View Close, Llandough, nr.\n> Penarth, Vale of Glamorgan (ATISN 27021)\n>\n>\n>\n> Dear Mr Buckler,\n>\n>\n>\n> *Great House Farm, Llandough*\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your request which I received on 1 June 2026.

The plans held here have been listed and are available to search on our catalogue . There are no plans listed for Great House Farm. After this date the area come under Vale of Glamorgan Borough Council. Although some records are held for the council (catalogue available here: DCVG ) these do not include plans. No plans have been deposited by either Vale of Glamorgan Borough Council or its successor authority Vale of Glamorgan County Borough Council. We suggest that you contact them directly: planning@valeofglamorgan. gov.uk .\n\nCorrespondence received from the farm may have been reported during committee meetings: Vale of Glamorgan County Borough Council can be viewed online: CVG , and Vale of Glamorgan Borough Council: DCVG .\n\nWe do not hold any records of BP Properties Ltd or BP Pension Trust.

A similar method can be employed to combine other search terms which will help you to identify records of relevance to your search.\n\nIf you would like to visit the Archives to view these records then details of our opening times and location can be found on our website , although please note that we are closed to the public 16-18 June to allow staff to undertake essential work on the collection.

If I haven't said already. I will\ntry to respond to this, but forgive me in advance as my times limited am\nI'm sure yours is. And this is deeply traumatic. I am still the only one in\nmy family half able and willing to speak up and out about this.\n\nMy grandmother was only Mrs Buckler for a short time, from her marriage in\n1935 until she changed her name back to Mrs Williams, as I understand — if\nshe was ever Mrs Buckler at all. Since her Williams name and \"Williams\nTitle\" (as the courts cite) were important to her ancestral and hereditary\nland claim. Whereas the dead legal name Mrs Buckler, with no such rights as\nthe indigenous living woman on her ancestral birthland, did have rights.\nAnd the courts' and BP's and land registries' use of Mrs Buckler as her\nname, long after it ceased to exist, I believe is at least a mistake.\nConsidering it falls within the context of a campaign to dispossess this\ndisabled widow's pension and us of our family home and land since 1667, I\nwould say that mistake and distinction ought to be corrected on the public\nrecord. I would like to know the procedure where it concerns your\ndepartment. Or if a note can be made of this on the files where the mistake\nexists. If it exists. I will be happy to provide her death certificate as\nMrs Williams and so forth, if helpful.\n\nThe other matter is the fact of the 1975 and 1983 conveyance of two titles\nand merging of two titles. Both were treated as the surrounding farmland\nand leased and defaulted on the lease of the surrounding farmland. But if\nit were indeed the case that Mrs Williams had absolute title of her\nfarmhouse and garden, aside from the 999-year lease of surrounding farmland\nacquired in 1667, then the above conveyances show that her land and home\nwere unlawfully absorbed into the land BP acquired and gained possession\nof, treating her home and garden as one and the same when they were not.\nOwnership was never ruled on. BP sought possession and never gained a\nruling on ownership.\n\nSo Mrs Williams and our family's home and garden and ownership claim and\nplot appears to not have been extinguished, but instead possession of our\nhome and garden appears to have been taken by force — possibly military\ntoo, not just police — as if our home and garden were subject to the\npossession of the surrounding farmland. Confusion caused may stem from BP\nwithholding the fact Mary was challenging their claim of ownership of her\nland and garden from the land registry in 1983.\n\nMary conveniently died the fortnight she had to challenge BP merging her\ntitle into theirs. The land registry also appears to have used the invalid\nMrs Buckler name from her 1935 marriage, disregarding the name change\nreversion, to validate the name Mrs Buckler on BP's licence letters offered\nin 1974. To which were allegedly not rejected despite Mary going to the\npapers to expressly reject as per the 1974 article and expressly rejected\naccess in 1975 during the conveyance. The land registry also would have had\nto depend on the 1974 quashed and earlier adjourned court documents to\ncorroborate BP's filings, but allege to have not seen or known the land was\ndisputed by Mary Williams and my family, while depending on court documents\nexplicitly detailing that Mary Williams and my family were challenging BP.\nThe 1974 licence letters, wrongly validated retrospectively in 1987, as did\nthe land registry try to validate their actions in 1983 using a ruling 4\nyears later as their defence. BP lost in 1974. The challenge of ownership\ncould not be ruled on in their favour nor ruled against in Mary's. Nor did\nthey win possession. The press sided with Mary. The courts to an extent\ntoo, saying she couldn't present title, which isn't to say it didn't exist.\nAnd we won in the hearts and minds of the 1100+ people who petitioned BP in\n1974. Their licence letters afterwards, after my nan conveniently didn't\nget her audience and ruling in her favour with the court for the second\ntime that year due to adjourning and squashing, appear to have been\nbackdated. And lacked validity due to the 1975 conveyance where BP\nthemselves clearly did not leave Mary alone as their own licence terms.\nNotwithstanding the name was wrong on them. Notwithstanding Mary did\nexplicitly reject them publicly and in the 1975 conveyance.\n\nA series of institutional failures and court mistakes and procedural\nunfairness and fraud appears to have occurred, notwithstanding the\nconvenient timed death of my grandmother in the 2-week window to challenge\nBP's registering of our home and garden and land in their names in 1983. Or\nthe convenient death of my father after his appeal of the 1987 ruling was\ndismissed and his ECHR blocked and his property abruptly destroyed. ITV\nfailing to report that 24 hours before that abrupt demolition us 3 children\nand pregnant mum were inside. ITV footage suppressed until late last year\nalong with much other media, still suppressed.\n\nI don't say all this to offload the trauma of it all onto you. I say all\nthis to say that I am still a constituent of this community and my family\nhad standing in this community and county since 1667 and still do with our\ncurrent house we have in the neighbouring town, since the 50's. Which my\ngrandad Ray Smith purchased after starring in Exodus with Paul Newman. And\nfor 38 years we have, all of us, been utterly deceived by headlines saying\nwe were squatters being evicted. Or like in 1987 the judge said Mary\nWilliams \"conceived the notion she owned\". Her paper title was stolen from\nher so far as I understand in my research so far. She still appears to have\ndefeated the attempts to dispossess our family of our home in the early to\nlater half of the 1900's due to a copy of the paper in the public library.\nWhich in later cases could not be presented as that went missing too. Which\nin later court cases, despite paper title not being able to be presented,\nstill did not defeat or extinguish our ownership claim due to our long\nstanding. And to this day our ownership claim has not been lawfully or\nlegally extinguished or surrendered or transferred or sold by the inheritor\nof the Williams Title i.e. Mrs Williams, or her heirs or successors i.e. my\nlate father and now my cousins, 5 aunties, tens of cousins, and brothers\nand sisters.\n\nOur family is now a small army. And all of this information is surfacing\nand assembling and is painting a very damning picture of the reality there.\nThere's literal theatre going on there. The authority is lacking\nlegitimacy. This false reality is the only thing that has been conceived or\nimagined and on the basis of BP perjury, fraud and concealment. My dad\nreported fraud prior to his conveniently timed death too and I don't see it\nwas ever actioned then.\n\nThe situation is untenable. I appreciate your help but I am receiving a lot\nof snivelling, delaying/stalling, gatekeeping, legally defensive, carefully\nworded responses as to what information is and is not held. And what\ninformation is/is not disclosed to me. Notwithstanding gaps in records.\nWith none of you seeming to hear me when I say I am a military cyber and\nelectronic warfare professional and certified and experienced military\ncommander and leader. I was the child in this village, which I am still not\nfeeling the warmth from, 38 years later. And I have been examining this\nwhole matter and collecting my evidence for the best part of 20 years.\n\nLast month CADW alleged to have nothing to do with this and I had to send\nthem a newspaper clipping explicitly quoting them, with their affiliation\nto this case. Much of what I collected over the last 2 decades has gone\nmissing. Including Parliamentary records of this case: moved, destroyed,\ninaccessible to journalists and researchers or their security\nclassification changed for increased inaccessibility.\n\nI would encourage every self-proclaimed authority there, to not dig\nyourselves into deeper holes to protect institutional failures here. The\nNetflix documentary of all this will come. The replica of the farm here in\nPatagonia will no longer just be a museum to tell the story of the farm.\nBut will now include the 1988 possible military action/ siege against my\nfamily, disguised as a civil proceeding. And the perversion of the course\nof justice and suppression of this thereafter.\n\nThis is a scandal. Not just controversial.\nLet's be real. Here's what I can gather so far:\n\nhttps://youtu.be/INfFOLndny0?feature=shared\n\nMy family remain in authority.\nAs our claim is legitimate.\nNo force. No stealth/secrecy. NO LICENCE.\n\nBP and the British State claims lack legitimacy here. And force,\nstealth/secrecy and illegitimate licence was used.\n\nNow please, provide me the records you hold on me, my family estate, in\ntrust, and this case. The full truth. Without further delay. Or ambiguity.\n\nIt's unreasonable to expect me to pay admission to your records. Let alone\nfly 7,000 miles to view them. Or the artifacts in the museums looted from\nour stolen land. And so forth. Co-operate with me on this because your all\non notice for allegations of fraud and supression of information and\ndestruction of evidence. As a regime. Or possible terrorist network/ cell\nor failed 80's coup. Nothing theorised about what you lot are all doing\nthere with this case, would much surprise me any more. Except maybe acting\nmore forthcoming and transparently. Public servants and public records\nshould be public and private citizens and private lives should remain\nprivate. This entire dialoug my family are having with your govenrment is\nthe inverse whereby Vale of Glamorgan and others ask what it is I'm doing\nor know, while gatekeeping and keeping private information held on me and\nmy family and case. Not historic, but my actual physical self, who was in\nthat house while it was demolished while we still resided in it. Refusing\nto leave with one simple term: rule on ownership. No ruling was made we\ndidn't own it. No ruling was made BP did. Our forceful removal and the\nlawfare was and still is absurd and an ongoing crime against our humanity.\n\nI am simply building a chronological timeline of events to try to\naccurately re-tell this story for family, history/heritage and later legal\nadjudication and press and media. https://bpvsbuckler.datro.xyz\n\nI'm not hijacking a BP fuel truck and driving it into those 20 houses on\nour land and standing on the truck with a naked flame making demands. I'm\njust asking you and your regime, respectfully and kindly, to just release\nthe files. You and other departments. In full. Without further delay or\nransom or conditions.\n\nI will be including in each slide and statement in the above website all\nthe supporting evidence. https://wayback.datro.xyz\n\nAnd this is all open source:\nhttps://github.com/unclehowell/datro/tree/bpvsbuckler so anyone can submit\na pull request with edits suggested. Which is how I would encourage and\ninfluence over mistakes I make, to be addressed. Seeing as we are now\nalgocratic and technologcal. This makes the narrative democratic and\ntransparent and not perverted and supressed.\n\nMy family hold the access keys to this repo in allodium. Which could be\nconditionally entrusted to the Welsh Government once it stops being so\nscandalous on this matter. And resembles a legitimate fiduciary and\nauthority to my indigenous family, on our ancestral birthland. I literally\nhave to fly in and out of my own county like it's a war zone now. Because\nof all this hybrid warfare. Like another tour of Iraq. And see my\ngenerationally traumatised family held hostage by terrorists, after the\n1988 act of terrorism we endured, still being covered up, is like seeing\nthe SAS soldiers I helped break out the Iraq prison, days before their\nexecution. The parallels are uncanny. And the irony is it was SAS that\nappear to have dispossessed our family for BP and Thatcher. Had I known\nthis I might have not helped save those two SAS soldiers from execution in\n2005. The depth of evil to have sent me to save the same people who\nsabotaged my family, goes some way to proving the demonic realm occupying\nand ruling their. Redeem yourselves already. For the love of God.\n\n99% of MP's refused to sign an EDM to condemn decapitating Christians last\nyear. Notwithstanding anyone with a flag resembling the colors of the four\nhorsemen of the apocalypse are already decapitating Britons on British\nisles. Michael Jones set up this Welsh Settlement in Argentina in 1786\nspecifically, as his followers recount, due to the \"decapitation committee\".\n\nI would, as a former employee of the Welsh Government/Vale of Glamorgan\nCouncil up until 2024 (adult care), having left my military career with\nfull honours (and am still bonafide), stop going down this path of this\nBrit'ish cultural, heritage and historic erasure and replacement of us all,\nspecifically Christian indigenous white Welsh, on our ancestral land, with\nour history and heritage. I'm married to a Dominican, my brother married a\nphiilipino; my family's race has changed from all white to mixed in a\nsingle generation with my nephews and neice and daughter now all half\nAfrican, philippino and Dominican. As a family we could not have embraced\nor advocated multiculturalism or diversity or being Brit'ish, any more. But\nour own culture, story, history and heritage in this case, must be told,\nKNOWN and able to be celebrated too. No more of this supression and\npersecution. It's already a stretch that I'm not discussing this all in\nWelsh. I'm still inclined to refrain from discussing this further in\nEnglish.\n\nOur farm was where Peerless Jim, 1906 featherweight champion, had his first\nfight. Where Marconi invented radio. Where a Roman Villa stands. Where our\nformer (Grade II listed — as it should have been, had CADW not failed the\nnation) 800-year-old former coach/manorial/court/farm house once stood.\nWhere a monastery exists. Where we called our family home since 1667. It's\npossible Magnus Maximus might have even been at the Roman Villa on our\nland.\n\nThe fact the tree we planted to commemorate our ownership has been removed\ntoo, without our claim of ownership being extinguished or defeated. And our\nhome [destruction of property and evidence]. And what's been built over us,\nburying us alive, while we're still all alive and breathing is, so far as I\ncan see, no plaque to commemorate Marconi. No notice or tourist board to\ncommemorate the Roman Villa and Monastery. Or the fact it's Wales' largest\nand most significant burial site ever recorded. This is therefore all\nalien. It's the action of imperialism and/or a terrorist cell/camp to house\nits officers/PoWs/hostages... following militant acts of terrorism,\ntheft/looting, human rights violations, propaganda, suppression of evidence\nand information.\n\nI have reported all this to my churches here in Patagonia and South Wales.\nAnd American societies that celebrate Welsh culture and heritage and\nhistory. The embarrassment and scandal here is no side of history to be on.\nWales has political eruptions in decolonisation/devolution now too.\nNotwithstanding the uprising in right wingers and indigenous rights for\nindigenous Britons.\n\nLayering injustice upon injustice to disguise earlier injustices in this\ncase, is not going to keep working for another decade. And I don't believe\nit's any side of history to be on.\n\nMy intentions here are in good faith. I'm merly working to get the websites\nup and organise the evidence chronologically. So there's a centralised\narchive. And prepare it all for legal adjudication. Try to get a ruling on\nland ownership as it's never been ruled on (only possession was). And if a\nplaque can be erected in Llandough all the better. I would like to arrange\nguided augmented reality tours of Llandough to our land there. And I'm\nalready here to reconstruct a replica of Great House Farm here in\nArgentina. With wax models of Peerless Jim and Marconi and so forth.\n\nLegal reparations for my family is something we seek to pursue, but\nnarrative justice too. This will be expensive.\n\nI have written to the ministry of interior in Argentina to seek land with\nthe same absolute title status as we held in Wales, which cannot be\nreturned to make us whole, no matter the reparations, since that superior\ntitle type no longer exists on British Isles under UK or Welsh law, so far\nas I understand.\n\nThis is all an ambitious undertaking. I require of you, my community,\nchurches and government, support and cooperation. There's nobility in my\ndirection forward from this. To gatekeep, suppress, withhold and ransom\ninformation and extort is dishonourable. As it brings the very values your\ninstitutes proclaim to instill, into disrepute. And I won't play or pay to\nplay part in that. My chosen direction forward does not require me to, nor\ndoes it depend on your assistance if you are unwilling to fully assist. My\ndirection forward from this will happen either way and obstructions to my\nendeavours will only place those hindering what I propose into further\ndishonour in my estimation.\n\nIt will actually take a lot of work on the part of the alleged authorities\nthere, to redeem yourselves. My transparency on this matter is one such an\nopportunity. And I don't much feel the olive branch I extend here, to the\nalleged authorities and fiduciaries there, is much being reciprocated thus\nfar. This isn't to cast aspersions on your department in particular, but\ndealings thus far with CADW and land registry, MP and councillors and even\nmy former employer Vale Council, does not fill me with confidence this\nmulti-generational attempt to starve and bury my family out of existence,\nis far from over.\n\nIt's literally a demonic realm occupying and ruling back there. And no\nwonder at all I've spent most of my adult life overseas. This case is also\none of many. My 36 day old son was abducted and filmed being\nritualistacally abused.\n\nIt's not within my family to play this role of  prisoners of war or\nhostages under the tyranny of the evil men back there. It has, at best, the\nunder duress (V.C) women and children and pets of our family, that haven't\nmanaged to liberate, who remain. That isn't constituency or membership to a\nsociety or citizenship. They're still terrorised into silence. Behold that\nwhich you call citizens. Further to this I remind you of the Eisteddfod\nceremony: is there peace, is there peace, is there peace. And the sword is\nreshiethed each time the crowd say yes, there's peace. Well I contest in\nthat when visit and ask is there peace and my family say yes. It's a\nquestion that is asked 3 times specifically so that seeing beyond their\nanswer is possible. To see beyond the answer hostages at gunpoint give, in\norder to see the duress.\n\nTheir reinactment of our customs and rituals in our culture, means nothing\nbut pagentry now, to many people. The actors literally said there was peace\n3 times while bombs fell on the event and the crowd were ushered into air\nraid shelters. Which is the point I'm trying to convey about how being so\ndisconnected from reality can look. I'm not unsheathing a sword and looking\ninto my families eyes and asking is there peace 3 times before projecting\nforce on those holding them hostage, because it's so far beyond that point\nalready. And the demonic realm there is so malignant and systemic. I can\nonly appeal to others there my proposal for an alternate direction forward\nto climb out of this hell. With the replica museum reconstruction here in\nPatagonia and Augmented reality tour and plaque back there in Llandough.\nAnd while you might say write to your MP or Councillor. They ignore this.\nThey're acting possessed by this scandal and demonic realm too.\n\nToday my younger sister, despite her nightmares about all this, visited the\nlocal library and read me this extract from the Glamorgan Village Book:\n\n\"Visitors to the farm saw how people lived in the past, how they made their\nbutter, cheese and beer and dried pork, and sent their sheep's wool to the\nwoollen mill at Lock's Mill Hill for spinning into yarn. They saw the\ncheese drying rooms hollowed out of a solid wall and the bedroom where in\nearlier centuries monks took rest on their travels. Marconi too slept here\nin a four poster bed whilst working with his experiments in wireless\ntelegraphy between Flat Holm and Lavernock Point.\"\n\nI also spoke to my aunty Mary Godfrey last night. And son Mark Godfrey. And\nother extended family yesterday. We all know the injustice we have and\ncontinue to endure. We are just wondering if the regime has changed at all\nfrom Thatcher and the terrorists who waged war on us 38 years ago.\nUltimately it sucks to all be buried alive under this mountain of scandal,\nfraud, deceipt, propergander and falsified records etc for almost 4\ndecades. Has this regime occupying and ruling no mercy, if it hasn't\nchanged since Thatcher?\n\nI also note while this act of terrorism was occurring on us, which ITV\nsomewhat reported on, regardless of the abrupt edits/cuts and failure to\nreport my mum was pregnant and the existence of us three children inside\nthe house, let alone that footage being supressed for 3+ decades. I do note\nthat another Welsh journalist was in Lybia at the same time where Ghadaffi\nwas telling the Welsh journalist that Thatcher was a terrorist and killing\nus indigenous Britons, while we were simultaniously being terorrised and\nkilled and our land and home looted and destroyed. Thatcher did also tell\nthe land registry to look the other way as BP registered our land in their\nnames. Another conveniently supressed report. Had they been shown side by\nside in 1988, and my existence as a human child, inside the house been at\nleast mentioned, non of this would have happened.\n\nI don't know if you can fathom the scale of injustice we feel in this\nmatter. Not only am I the only one of my family not in enough of  vodaka\nfuelled rage scale of rage or generationally traumatised into silence about\nthis. But I don't have vices, I'm bona fide, left my professional career\nwith full honours and I'm a former Vale of Glamorgan employee, completing\nmy 22 years in Oath that same year in 2024. If you and I are not able to at\nleast find an end of this snake to pick it up by, at least the right end,\nwhat hope is there?\n\nOf all the departments I've spoken to thus far I feel you're email today\nhas been the most helpful. And I hope that what I've conveyed to you and\nyour regime about our families position on this matter has been helpful to\nyou also.\n\nDo with this information what you will too. I've said all I can say to you\nAdam.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler Esq.

I have checked the accessions information for the archive items which we hold related to the site. Unfortunately, there is no accessions data for the items in the NMR Site File collection. This is because most of the information was either created (in the case of notes and drawing from site visits) or collected (in the case of the newspaper cuttings) by RCAHMW staff in the course of their duties. Having examined the records themselves, however, I do note that Archive Number 6048942 may have come from a Mrs Buckler (‘Mrs Buckler?’ is handwritten under the account). There is also a note at the bottom of Archive Number 6048945 that ‘Correspondence between C.N. Johns and Mrs Buckler, Great House Farm, has been lost since 1986/87’, although I have been unable to find any other record of this correspondence either in our records or our archive catalogue, having carried out both digital and physical searches, including searching through the RCAHMW administrative files in the archive (some of which are not yet open to the public).\n\nWith regard to the first three records in the list, I include what accessions details are available below:\nArchive Number\ncreator or originating body\naccession source\naccession date\n6524751\nGlamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust\nDonation\n20/03/2019\n6416853\n Cotswold Archaeology\nDonation\n30/05/2014\n6500905\nDr Katherine Watson\nTransferred from Historic England as part of an exchange of material between the two organisations\n15/01/2018\n\nWith regards to which records mention things like ownership and the dispute, most of the newspaper article clippings naturally discuss it. Archive Number 6048942 provides a short history of the site and notes the family’s residence there and Archive Number 6048945 notes that ‘The house remained partially recorded because of problems created by an ownership dispute. The house and farm buildings were suddenly and completely destroyed by B. P. Properties Ltd. on 6th December 1988 amid considerable local controversy’. If you would like further details about the content of these records, they can be viewed in our Search Room, located in the National Library of Wales, which is open Tuesday through Thursday. Scans of records can also be requested, using the attached order form. We also do offer a limited document summary service. Please see our price list for details.\n\nIn addition to these 14 records, we may hold some historical aerial photography which may include the site. This would likely include vertical aerial photography taken from a high altitude by the Royal Air Force and/or Ordnance survey from the 1940s to the turn of the 21st century.

As noted in my email of 26 November last, while we cannot advise you on a legal case or undertake a review of historical decisions, we do hold information and archives related to Great House Farm, Llandough.\n\nThe site entry and description for the site in the National Monuments Record of Wales can be seen online on Coflein, here: https://coflein.gov.uk/en/site/20182.\n\nWe hold 14 archives related to the site, a list of which can be seen here: https://coflein.gov.uk/en/site/20182/archives?size=25. These archives can be viewed in our Search Room, located in the National Library of Wales, which is open Tuesday through Thursday, 9:30-16:30. If you would like to view the material in person, I would advise arranging with us beforehand so that we can prepare the material ahead of your visit. Some of the material is on microfiche and as we do not have a microfiche reader in the Search Room, we will need to liaise with the National Library Reading Room staff to try to negotiate the use of their machines ahead of your visit. However, I have located an electronic copy of Archive Number 6524751, which can be accessed here: https://www.walesher1974.org/her/app/php/herumd.php?group=GGAT&level=3&docid=301361628\n\nWhile it is possible to order scans of material using the attached order form, we may be unable to provide research-quality scans or photographs of some of the material, such as the material on microfiche, which would require high-resolution scanning at a cost of £20 per scan. Moreover,  many of these records remain under third-party copyright, and we would only be able to provide scans or copies for personal, non-commercial research. Other uses, such as use in a legal case or report would likely require the permission of the copyright holder(s). I would therefore advise arranging to view the material in person rather than ordering scans, if possible.\n\nFinally, I have confirmed with our Records Manager that we do not hold any correspondence related to the site.\n\nThank you again for your enquiry.\n\nSincerely,\n\nAdam Coward\n\n\n[cid:image001.png@01DCF8DA.0DA924A0]\nDr Adam Coward\n Rheolwr Llyfrgell ac Ymholiadau | Library and Enquiries Manager\nFfordd Penglais | Penglais Road,\n Aberystwyth,\n [postcode redacted]\n[phone redacted]<tel:+44%20(0)%201970%20621%20216>\n[email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n |\n[email redacted]<[email redacted]>\nwww.cbhc.gov.uk<https://cbhc.gov.uk/>\n|\n www.rcahmw.gov.uk<https://rcahmw.gov.uk/>\nNoddir gan Lywodraeth Cymru\n|\n Sponsored by Welsh Government\n[Facebook]<https://www.facebook.com/Royal-Commission-on-the-Ancient-and-Historical-Monuments-of-Wales-146120328739808>\n[Twitter]<https://www.twitter.com/rcahmwales>\nRydym yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn Gymraeg a Saesneg.

My grandmother Mary Williams maintained until her conveniently timed death in 1983 (in the 2 week window to challenge BP's registration of our home and land since 1667, in their names) that our family held ownership of the house following arrangements with Daniel Thomas involving the quarry, with the surrounding farmland subject to a lease that defaulted.\n\nThere was a conveyance for the surrounding land and attempt to merge our farmhouse and garden into that single plot in 1975. Which was challenged by my nan. Something HM Land Registry correspondence (titles WA231076 and WA240304, first registered to BP Properties Limited in 1982/1983) references these conveyances and the Court of Appeal decision, which may assist in narrowing relevant planning and heritage searches.\n\nTo enable your Planning, Heritage, and other relevant teams to conduct thorough searches without further delay, I confirm that enquiries should cover the historic Great House Farm / Ty Mawr estate in Llandough (adjacent to and including areas now known as Church View Close, north side of Leckwith Road, title WA231076). This includes any planning permissions, heritage assessments, demolition records (circa 1988), tenancy notations, environmental information, or correspondence from 1875 onwards.\n\nI am keen to receive a full and timely response within the statutory timeframe, drawing on all information the Council holds across departments. This is of profound personal and historic importance to the Williams family descendants as we seek to document and substantiate our family's position. Should any records have been transferred to Glamorgan Archives or handled in any other way, details of this would be most helpful.\n\nThank you once again for your understanding and support in this sensitive matter. I look forward to your substantive reply at the earliest opportunity.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler Esq.

And thanks for your prompt reply.\n\nPlease also clarify whether any searches were undertaken beyond deeds and\ntitle documents, as my enquiry extends to a wider range of historical\nmaterials relating to Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough.\n\nFamily records and longstanding local accounts indicate that a copy of the\nconveyance or land transfer associated with Daniel Thomas and the Bute\nEstate may at one time have been available through Cardiff's library or\nlocal studies collections. The Williams family relied upon documentary\nevidence relating to the farm during disputes concerning occupation and\nownership during the twentieth century, and family members consistently\nreferred to such records.\n\nI therefore respectfully request that Cathays Branch and Heritage Library,\nor the appropriate Cardiff Council department, undertake or arrange a\nsearch of any relevant holdings, including:\n\n• Local studies collections and vertical files. • Heritage and local\nhistory indexes. • Newspaper cuttings collections. • Photographic\ncollections. • Map collections. • Catalogue entries and accession records.\n• References to Great House Farm, Ty Mawr, Llandough. • References to\nDaniel Thomas, the Bute Estate, quarry agreements, land exchanges, or\nconveyances. • References to John Williams, Mary Williams, or other members\nof the Williams family associated with the farm. • Records indicating\nwhether any such material was transferred to Glamorgan Archives or another\nrepository.\n\nIn particular, if any relevant material was formerly held by Cardiff\nLibraries or Cardiff Council but subsequently transferred, withdrawn,\nre-catalogued, or otherwise relocated, I would be grateful for any\ninformation identifying where those records are now held and any catalogue\nreferences that may assist my research.\n\nIf this request would be more appropriately handled under the Freedom of\nInformation Act 2000 or Environmental Information Regulations 2004, please\ntreat it accordingly or transfer it internally to the relevant department.\n\nThe purpose of my enquiry is to identify surviving historical records\nrelating to Great House Farm and the Williams family's connection to the\nproperty. Any guidance, references, finding aids, catalogue entries, or\narchive references would be greatly appreciated.\n\nThank you for your assistance.

As noted in my email of 26 November last, while we cannot advise you on a legal case or undertake a review of historical decisions, we do hold information and archives related to Great House Farm, Llandough.\n\nThe site entry and description for the site in the National Monuments Record of Wales can be seen online on Coflein, here: https://coflein.gov.uk/en/site/20182.\n\nWe hold 14 archives related to the site, a list of which can be seen here: https://coflein.gov.uk/en/site/20182/archives?size=25. These archives can be viewed in our Search Room, located in the National Library of Wales, which is open Tuesday through Thursday, 9:30-16:30. If you would like to view the material in person, I would advise arranging with us beforehand so that we can prepare the material ahead of your visit. Some of the material is on microfiche and as we do not have a microfiche reader in the Search Room, we will need to liaise with the National Library Reading Room staff to try to negotiate the use of their machines ahead of your visit. However, I have located an electronic copy of Archive Number 6524751, which can be accessed here: https://www.walesher1974.org/her/app/php/herumd.php?group=GGAT&level=3&docid=301361628\n\nWhile it is possible to order scans of material using the attached order form, we may be unable to provide research-quality scans or photographs of some of the material, such as the material on microfiche, which would require high-resolution scanning at a cost of £20 per scan. Moreover,  many of these records remain under third-party copyright, and we would only be able to provide scans or copies for personal, non-commercial research. Other uses, such as use in a legal case or report would likely require the permission of the copyright holder(s). I would therefore advise arranging to view the material in person rather than ordering scans, if possible.\n\nFinally, I have confirmed with our Records Manager that we do not hold any correspondence related to the site.\n\nThank you again for your enquiry.\n\nSincerely,\n\nAdam Coward\n\n\n[cid:image001.png@01DCF729.2DDB7870]\nDr Adam Coward\n Rheolwr Llyfrgell ac Ymholiadau | Library and Enquiries Manager\nFfordd Penglais | Penglais Road,\n Aberystwyth,\n [postcode redacted]\n[phone redacted]<tel:+44%20(0)%201970%20621%20216>\n[email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n |\n[email redacted]<[email redacted]>\nwww.cbhc.gov.uk<https://cbhc.gov.uk/>\n|\n www.rcahmw.gov.uk<https://rcahmw.gov.uk/>\nNoddir gan Lywodraeth Cymru\n|\n Sponsored by Welsh Government\n[Facebook]<https://www.facebook.com/Royal-Commission-on-the-Ancient-and-Historical-Monuments-of-Wales-146120328739808>\n[Twitter]<https://www.twitter.com/rcahmwales>\nRydym yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn Gymraeg a Saesneg.

Without our ownership ever having been estiguished and without BP ever having a ruling of ownership, only possession.\n\nIt's alledged our fee simple absolute and manorial title was stolen. And when BP registered our lands in their names in 1982, with our stolen title, my nan who challenged this all her life, during the 2 week land registry window to challenge BP's registration, which they achieved via purgergy and document/ identity fraud, she conveniently died. As my father did after his appeal of the 1987 mistake ruling was mistakely dismissed and his ECHR request blocked and home abruptly demolished, which he was prevented from stopping having been hospitalised and arrested without charges by armed force officers and possible SAS.\n\nhttps://youtu.be/0eXOoj7eUCo?si=hcgSA2pFgEE943HG\n\nI understand records may exist within the National Monuments Record of Wales, Historic Environment Record archives, archaeological consultations and planning files, including references already identified as:\n\n• Great House Farm HER site entry – GGAT03586s\n• Land at Great House Farm HER event entry – GGATE003872\n• The 1990 archaeological assessment commissioned by BP Properties Ltd.\n\nPlease provide copies of, or access to:\n\n  1.

Mary Williams maintained until her\ndeath in 1983 that the family held ownership of the house following\narrangements with Daniel Thomas involving the quarry on the land, with the\nsurrounding farmland subject to a lease that defaulted. The family had\noccupied the property for centuries, with strong local and press\nrecognition of their longstanding connection.\n\nI attach a copy of a contemporary newspaper article from the *South Wales\nEcho* dated 3 December 1988 (\"History fight to save farm\" by Peter Bibby).\nIt reports that officials from Cadw were actively considering an appeal to\nthe Secretary of State for Wales to protect the farmhouse as a listed\nbuilding. A Cadw spokeswoman is quoted on evaluating spot-listing and\nemergency procedures due to its historic significance (parts potentially\ndating to the 12th-13th century), with plans for an inspector's site visit\nand discussion with the Royal Commission on Ancient and Historical\nMonuments. This occurred amid the family's legal battle and imminent\ndemolition.\n\nIn light of this clear evidence of Cadw's involvement at the critical time,\nI would be most grateful for a thorough review and full disclosure of *all*\nheld records, correspondence, assessments, site notes, photographs,\ninternal memos, or communications relating to Great House Farm / Ty Mawr\nfrom the 1970s to 1990s. This includes any listing considerations, heritage\nevaluations, interactions with the Vale of Glamorgan Council, BP\nProperties, or the family, and details of any records transferred to other\narchives (such as RCAHMW or Glamorgan Archives).\n\nI appreciate Cadw’s focused remit on the historic environment and kindly\nrequest that searches extend across all relevant teams and archives to\nensure nothing is overlooked. This would greatly assist our efforts to\ndocument and substantiate the family’s historic position in this sensitive\nmatter.\n\nThank you once again for your understanding and support.

My\ngrandmother Mary Williams maintained until her conveniently timed death in\n1983 (in the 2 week window to challenge BP's registration of our home and\nland since 1667, in their names) that our family held ownership of the\nhouse following arrangements with Daniel Thomas involving the quarry, with\nthe surrounding farmland subject to a lease that defaulted.\n\nThere was a conveyance for the surrounding land and attempt to merge our\nfarmhouse and garden into that single plot in 1975. Which was challenged by\nmy nan. Something HM Land Registry correspondence (titles WA231076 and\nWA240304, first registered to BP Properties Limited in 1982/1983)\nreferences these conveyances and the Court of Appeal decision, which may\nassist in narrowing relevant planning and heritage searches.\n\nTo enable your Planning, Heritage, and other relevant teams to conduct\nthorough searches without further delay, I confirm that enquiries should\ncover the historic Great House Farm / Ty Mawr estate in Llandough (adjacent\nto and including areas now known as Church View Close, north side of\nLeckwith Road, title WA231076). This includes any planning permissions,\nheritage assessments, demolition records (circa 1988), tenancy notations,\nenvironmental information, or correspondence from 1875 onwards.\n\nI am keen to receive a full and timely response within the statutory\ntimeframe, drawing on all information the Council holds across departments.\nThis is of profound personal and historic importance to the Williams family\ndescendants as we seek to document and substantiate our family's position.\nShould any records have been transferred to Glamorgan Archives or handled\nin any other way, details of this would be most helpful.\n\nThank you once again for your understanding and support in this sensitive\nmatter.

For this reason, correspondence is not issued under individual names. The team is managed by Evelyn Morgan who is the Council's Data Protection Officer/Information Manager.\n\nWe appreciate the detailed correspondence you have provided to date and understand that this matter is of importance to you. We have received multiple items of correspondence from you, including earlier requests relating to the legal case of BP Properties Ltd v Buckler. Work had already been undertaken to review this request and we were in the process of preparing a response when your more recent correspondence was received. We were aiming to ensure that all appropriate lines of enquiry had been explored before providing a response.\n\nAt this stage, we would like to clarify that the Vale of Glamorgan Council does not hold records relating to this historic legal matter. Neither the Council nor its predecessor authorities, the Vale of Glamorgan Borough Council or the former South Glamorgan County Council were involved in the case of BP Properties Ltd v Buckler. From the information available, it appears this was a private legal matter between BP Properties Ltd and the Buckler family. We also recognise that your enquiries extend beyond the Council and have been shared with a number of organisations. Some of the information you are seeking is more likely to be held elsewhere and not with the Council. Some information that may have historically been retained by the Council may now be held by the Glamorgan Archives but only in relation to historical land ownership, tenancy records, or court administrative deposits. Some information may also be obtainable from the Land Registry, but we can see that they have been included in your correspondence.\n\nIn terms of information the Council may hold, this is most likely limited to planning related records. As previously advised, in order for our Planning colleagues to conduct accurate searches, they have requested a copy of the relevant site plan. Without this, there is a risk that any searches undertaken may not capture all relevant records.  We note that this does not mean there are records just that in trying to cover every possibility we have asked for a site plan to complete this aspect of our enquiries.  There may not be anything held but, we are trying to search for you.  It is entirely a matter for you as to whether you provide a site plan. If you do not wish to provide one you do not have to but that will restrict our enquiries as it will be difficult to pin down the correct area.\n\nWe are looking to assist in providing you with a full response as soon as possible with the information that is held by the Council. Your cooperation in providing the requested plan will help us progress this matter efficiently.\n\nWe look forward to hearing from you.\n\nKind regards\n\nInformation Governance Officer / Swyddog Llywodraethu Gwybodaeth\nDirector's Office - Resources / Swyddfa'r Cyfarwyddwr - Adnoddau\nVale of Glamorgan Council / Cyngor Bro Morgannwg\ntel / ffôn: [phone redacted]\ne-mail / e-bost: [email redacted] or [email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n\nConsider the environment.

You are under a strict legal duty to preserve all physical and electronic records, metadata, correspondence, maps, and erased files relating to this site. Any spoliation, deletion, or withholding of data will be cited in subsequent court filings.\nDear Freedom of Information Officer,\nRE: Information Request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and the Environmental Information Regulations 2004\nI am writing to request access to historical records, internal correspondence, planning briefs, and assessments held by your organization regarding Great House Farm, Llandough, near Penarth/Cardiff (demolished December 1988), and the historical occupancy of the Buckler family.\nStatutory Mandate on Accessibility & Charging Fees:\nI am aware that previous attempts to locate this data have resulted in directives to visit physical archives in person or use paywalled, commercial third-party web portals. Please be advised of the following statutory obligations:\n\n  1.  Under EIR Regulation 8, fees cannot act as an unreasonable barrier or deterrent to access. Because my family was historically displaced from this site and I am executing this request remotely, forcing physical attendance or demanding payment constitutes an unlawful obstacle.\n  2.  Public authorities are required to supply information in the format requested. I require all documents to be delivered digitally via email attachment or secure electronic download link, free of charge, as specified by the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) guidelines for data already held electronically.\nPlease provide all recorded information matching the following points:\n1. Tenant/Ownership Identification and the 1880 Report\n\n  *   Any documents, archival notes, or registry indexes citing the William/ Buckler family line (who occupied and farmed the house across four generations).\n  *   Clarification on whether my family members were formally cited as the legal owners, long-term tenants, or registered reporters of the 1880 discovery under the dining room floor.\n  *   Any explicit records indicating gaps, deleted metadata, or missing volumes in your authority's archive concerning the tenancy, land-dispute maps, or agricultural heritage of Great House Farm between 1950 and 1989.\n2. Statutory Protection and Cadw's Assessments\n\n  *   Given that the site's extreme archaeological value (a 1st-to-4th-century Roman precursor villa and a massive early medieval monastic settlement) was verified by rescue operations as early as 1979, what are the recorded reasons why Cadw failed to place a statutory Schedule or Protection Order on the standing fabric of Great House Farm before its demolition?\n  *   All internal correspondence, risk assessments, or ministerial briefs evaluating the preservation value of the sub-medieval direct-entry farmhouse core before it was levelled.\n3. Planning Approvals and Local Authority Governance\n\n  *   All minutes, planning committee files, and consultation responses from the local authority that granted planning permission and housing development rights on this specific acreage.\n  *   Direct information explaining how the council approved planning permission for a private housing development in light of the documented historical evidence surrounding the immediate parish boundary.\n4. Institutional Concealment and Historical \"Ignorance\"\n\n  *   Records showing exactly where and at what stage of the planning process this archaeological evidence should have been brought up but was not, which ultimately allowed developers and public bodies to claim they were unaware of the land's deep significance until after the farmhouse was destroyed and housing development began.\n  *   Any environmental impact assessments, historic environment register (HER) lookups, or developer briefs filed between 1980 and 1990 regarding the footprint of Great House Farm.\nIf any part of this request is refused under the guise of commercial sensitivity or archival limitations, you are required by law to state the exact statutory exemption applied and provide a formal internal review pathway.\nI expect your response within the statutory 20-working-day timeframe.\nKind regards,\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n[address redacted], Dinas Powys, Vale of Glamorgan\n\n\n\n---------- Forwarded message ----------\nFrom: FOI Unit <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nTo: \"[email redacted]<[email redacted]>\" <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nCc:\nBcc:\nDate: Thu, 28 May 2026 11:04:26 +0000\nSubject: Clarification required - FOI/EIR request - Case Ref/ 00210772\nDear Sion Buckler\n\nWe write further in relation to your request for information, referenced above.\n\nThe relevant service area have requested we ask the below.

You are under a strict legal duty to preserve all physical and electronic records, metadata, correspondence, maps, and erased files relating to this site. Any spoliation, deletion, or withholding of data will be cited in subsequent court filings.\nDear Freedom of Information Officer,\nRE: Information Request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and the Environmental Information Regulations 2004\nI am writing to request access to historical records, internal correspondence, planning briefs, and assessments held by your organization regarding Great House Farm, Llandough, near Penarth/Cardiff (demolished December 1988), and the historical occupancy of the Buckler family.\nStatutory Mandate on Accessibility & Charging Fees:\nI am aware that previous attempts to locate this data have resulted in directives to visit physical archives in person or use paywalled, commercial third-party web portals. Please be advised of the following statutory obligations:\n\n  1.  Under EIR Regulation 8, fees cannot act as an unreasonable barrier or deterrent to access. Because my family was historically displaced from this site and I am executing this request remotely, forcing physical attendance or demanding payment constitutes an unlawful obstacle.\n  2.  Public authorities are required to supply information in the format requested. I require all documents to be delivered digitally via email attachment or secure electronic download link, free of charge, as specified by the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) guidelines for data already held electronically.\nPlease provide all recorded information matching the following points:\n1. Tenant/Ownership Identification and the 1880 Report\n\n  *   Any documents, archival notes, or registry indexes citing the William/ Buckler family line (who occupied and farmed the house across four generations).\n  *   Clarification on whether my family members were formally cited as the legal owners, long-term tenants, or registered reporters of the 1880 discovery under the dining room floor.\n  *   Any explicit records indicating gaps, deleted metadata, or missing volumes in your authority’s archive concerning the tenancy, land-dispute maps, or agricultural heritage of Great House Farm between 1950 and 1989.\n2. Statutory Protection and Cadw’s Assessments\n\n  *   Given that the site's extreme archaeological value (a 1st-to-4th-century Roman precursor villa and a massive early medieval monastic settlement) was verified by rescue operations as early as 1979, what are the recorded reasons why Cadw failed to place a statutory Schedule or Protection Order on the standing fabric of Great House Farm before its demolition?\n  *   All internal correspondence, risk assessments, or ministerial briefs evaluating the preservation value of the sub-medieval direct-entry farmhouse core before it was levelled.\n3. Planning Approvals and Local Authority Governance\n\n  *   All minutes, planning committee files, and consultation responses from the local authority that granted planning permission and housing development rights on this specific acreage.\n  *   Direct information explaining how the council approved planning permission for a private housing development in light of the documented historical evidence surrounding the immediate parish boundary.\n4. Institutional Concealment and Historical \"Ignorance\"\n\n  *   Records showing exactly where and at what stage of the planning process this archaeological evidence should have been brought up but was not, which ultimately allowed developers and public bodies to claim they were unaware of the land's deep significance until after the farmhouse was destroyed and housing development began.\n  *   Any environmental impact assessments, historic environment register (HER) lookups, or developer briefs filed between 1980 and 1990 regarding the footprint of Great House Farm.\nIf any part of this request is refused under the guise of commercial sensitivity or archival limitations, you are required by law to state the exact statutory exemption applied and provide a formal internal review pathway.\nI expect your response within the statutory 20-working-day timeframe.\nKind regards,\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n[address redacted], Dinas Powys, Vale of Glamorgan\n\nDear Sion Buckler\n\n\nWe write further in relation to your request for information, referenced above.\n\nThe relevant service area have requested we ask the below. We would be grateful if you could provide some clarification on the following point(s):\n\nPlease can we ask for a plan showing the locations? We have found great house farm but the request includes Ty Mawr / Great House Estate and we are not clear the extent of the site being queried.\n\nThis will help us to identify and locate the information you are seeking and ensure we provide you with the most relevant response.\n\nPlease note that the statutory response deadline is paused while we await your clarification. Once we receive your response, we will resume processing your request.\n\nIf we do not hear from you within [e.g. 2 months], we may consider the request closed\n\nYours sincerely,\n\n\nInformation Governance Officer/ Swyddog Llywodraethu Gwybodaeth\n\nDirector's Office - Resources / Swyddfa'r Cyfarwyddwr - Adnoddau\n\nVale of Glamorgan Council / Cyngor Bro Morgannwg\n\ntel / ffôn: [phone redacted]\n\ne-mail / e-bost: [email redacted]<[email redacted]> or [email redacted]<[email redacted]>\n\n\n\nConsider the environment.

And left my military career with honours before that. I always prided\nmyself serving as a public servant.\n\nBut I am outraged at what occured to my family and its a huge scandal. And\nanyone in office should not be treating this like an us/them situation\nwhere I'm going up against my Welsh Govenrment and fudiciaries.\n\nThere's a lot of women in my family too terrified to even speak up against\nthis. My father alledged fraud. He died. My grandad died before being able\nto explain how BP got our title. My nan died in the window she had to\nchallenge BP's registration of our land in their names. I am the only one\nwho is willing to speak up and out about this.\n\nIts not I wasn't frightened like they were. Its that statute of limitation\napplied and there wasn't much that could be done. But I suspect fraud as of\nthis year and this means this can and should be reopened.\n\nI am horrified that the MP and Councillor for Llandough are remaining\nsilent. Not responding. But its possible they might need time to take a\nposition on this. So far as I see the British (Thatcher and BP) seem\nimplicated. And us indigenous welsh on our ancestral birthland home since\n1667, makes this very bad for them.\n\nSo if there's any Welsh still in Wales, that care that our herritage and\nhistory could be looted and history covered up as this appears to have, I\nhope someone else will make noise about this too. And not just let it rest.\n\nMarconi stayed with us while inventing radio and there's not even a plaque\nto commemorate Church View Close, Llandough as the birthplace of radio.\nThis is a huge scandal. I understand many Brits are liberal left and\nMarconi was right wing. Thats what Cardiff City Council say about why\nthere's no plaque to commemorate marconi on the statute of a radio at\nCardiff Bay. But this perversion and supression of history and facts is so\nunacceptable. I have nephews and children and the fact they can't see any\ntrace of our 320 years in Llandough , up until 1988 is an outrage. The fact\nthe press all labelled us squatters and thats what they will grow up\nreading, when it was our home since 1667 is also an outrage. They're\nclearly hostages under terrorists and there's nothing democratic about any\nof this.\n\nSo far as I see what happened to our family in 1988 , in how we were\ndisplaced, isn't just tyranny or british colonising. It's a literally act\nof terrorism. Which I reported to police yesterday as such. And I consider\nmy family there in Wales hostages under said terrorists. The situation is\nuntenable. We require remedy. Narrative justice. Correction of records.\nSome press release. Something to amend this situation.\n\nThe fact ITV quietly just declassified footage from 1988 after 38 years was\ncowardly. They cannot expect to get away with that.  The footage clearly\nsays neighbours report SAS used and the footage shows SAS and there's\nmention of the land being prime Real Estate overlooking cardiff bay. But\nmore so is the fact that my old best friends late mum, Nichola Hayward\nThomas, who is the news anchor, never mentioned this footage to me and took\nthis to her grave. And in the clip she fails to mention the assault on my\nmum, while serving the injuction to the illegal occupiers terrorists,\nproperly SAS. Didn't just dislocate her shoulder. But she was pregnant with\nthree toddlers. So even the declassified footage after 38 years supressed,\nis itself carefully scripted to show bias. And there's more on that. Like\nthe fact the edit/ cut is so abrupt when the SAS looking man or mention of\nreal estate value being prime.\n\nWe scattered to the wind, looted and half dead in 1988 after decades of\nlawfare and this terrorist attack and siege on our home. We want justice.\nBecause what we've said all along seems to have been the plausible story.\nAnd what the press, records and courts ruled seems to be the fraud.\n\nWithout legitimacy there's no authority here. It's important as fudiciaries\nyou be legitimate.\n\nI'm horrified at the replies I have received thus far. Like CADW saying\nthey had nothing to do with this or land registry converting my query into\na complaint only to squash is. And failing that some other cowardly reply.\n\nThere's institutional failure. There's court mistakes. Theres proceedural\nunfairness.\nPurgergy and fraud. I expect better from the Welsh Govenrment to fix this.\n\nPlease do everything in your power.\nThis is all I ask.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler\n[address redacted], Dinas Powys, Vale of Glamorgan\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOn Thu, 28 May 2026, 11:47 Dr Adam Coward, <[email redacted]>\nwrote:\n\n> Good afternoon,\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for your enquiry.

You are under a strict legal duty to preserve all physical and electronic records, metadata, correspondence, maps, and erased files relating to this site. Any spoliation, deletion, or withholding of data will be cited in subsequent court filings.\nDear Freedom of Information Officer,\nRE: Information Request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and the Environmental Information Regulations 2004\nI am writing to request access to historical records, internal correspondence, planning briefs, and assessments held by your organization regarding Great House Farm, Llandough, near Penarth/Cardiff (demolished December 1988), and the historical occupancy of the Buckler family.\nStatutory Mandate on Accessibility & Charging Fees:\nI am aware that previous attempts to locate this data have resulted in directives to visit physical archives in person or use paywalled, commercial third-party web portals. Please be advised of the following statutory obligations:\n\n  1.  Under EIR Regulation 8, fees cannot act as an unreasonable barrier or deterrent to access. Because my family was historically displaced from this site and I am executing this request remotely, forcing physical attendance or demanding payment constitutes an unlawful obstacle.\n  2.  Public authorities are required to supply information in the format requested. I require all documents to be delivered digitally via email attachment or secure electronic download link, free of charge, as specified by the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) guidelines for data already held electronically.\nPlease provide all recorded information matching the following points:\n1. Tenant/Ownership Identification and the 1880 Report\n\n  *   Any documents, archival notes, or registry indexes citing the William/ Buckler family line (who occupied and farmed the house across four generations).\n  *   Clarification on whether my family members were formally cited as the legal owners, long-term tenants, or registered reporters of the 1880 discovery under the dining room floor.\n  *   Any explicit records indicating gaps, deleted metadata, or missing volumes in your authority’s archive concerning the tenancy, land-dispute maps, or agricultural heritage of Great House Farm between 1950 and 1989.\n2. Statutory Protection and Cadw’s Assessments\n\n  *   Given that the site's extreme archaeological value (a 1st-to-4th-century Roman precursor villa and a massive early medieval monastic settlement) was verified by rescue operations as early as 1979, what are the recorded reasons why Cadw failed to place a statutory Schedule or Protection Order on the standing fabric of Great House Farm before its demolition?\n  *   All internal correspondence, risk assessments, or ministerial briefs evaluating the preservation value of the sub-medieval direct-entry farmhouse core before it was levelled.\n3. Planning Approvals and Local Authority Governance\n\n  *   All minutes, planning committee files, and consultation responses from the local authority that granted planning permission and housing development rights on this specific acreage.\n  *   Direct information explaining how the council approved planning permission for a private housing development in light of the documented historical evidence surrounding the immediate parish boundary.\n4. Institutional Concealment and Historical \"Ignorance\"\n\n  *   Records showing exactly where and at what stage of the planning process this archaeological evidence should have been brought up but was not, which ultimately allowed developers and public bodies to claim they were unaware of the land's deep significance until after the farmhouse was destroyed and housing development began.\n  *   Any environmental impact assessments, historic environment register (HER) lookups, or developer briefs filed between 1980 and 1990 regarding the footprint of Great House Farm.\nIf any part of this request is refused under the guise of commercial sensitivity or archival limitations, you are required by law to state the exact statutory exemption applied and provide a formal internal review pathway.\nI expect your response within the statutory 20-working-day timeframe.\nKind regards,\nSion Buckler (Ret'd Sergeant)\n[address redacted], Dinas Powys, Vale of Glamorgan\nYmateb nad yw'n Argyfwng\\ Non-Emergency Response\n\nOes angen i chi siarad â'r heddlu ond nid oes angen ymateb brys arnoch?

Any spoliation, deletion, or\nwithholding of data will be cited in subsequent court filings.*\nDear Freedom of Information Officer,\nRE: Information Request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 and the\nEnvironmental Information Regulations 2004\nI am writing to request access to historical records, internal\ncorrespondence, planning briefs, and assessments held by your organization\nregarding Great House Farm, Llandough, near Penarth/Cardiff (demolished\nDecember 1988), and the historical occupancy of the Buckler family.\nStatutory Mandate on Accessibility & Charging Fees:\nI am aware that previous attempts to locate this data have resulted in\ndirectives to visit physical archives in person or use paywalled,\ncommercial third-party web portals. Please be advised of the following\nstatutory obligations:\n\n   1. Under EIR Regulation 8, fees cannot act as an unreasonable barrier or\n   deterrent to access. Because my family was historically displaced from this\n   site and I am executing this request remotely, forcing physical attendance\n   or demanding payment constitutes an unlawful obstacle.\n   2. Public authorities are required to supply information in the format\n   requested. I require all documents to be delivered digitally via email\n   attachment or secure electronic download link, free of charge, as\n   specified by the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) guidelines for\n   data already held electronically.\n\nPlease provide all recorded information matching the following points:\n1. Tenant/Ownership Identification and the 1880 Report\n\n   - Any documents, archival notes, or registry indexes citing the\nWilliam/ Buckler\n   family line (who occupied and farmed the house across four generations).\n   - Clarification on whether my family members were formally cited as the\n   legal owners, long-term tenants, or registered reporters of the 1880\n   discovery under the dining room floor.\n   - Any explicit records indicating gaps, deleted metadata, or missing\n   volumes in your authority’s archive concerning the tenancy, land-dispute\n   maps, or agricultural heritage of Great House Farm between 1950 and 1989.\n\n2. Statutory Protection and Cadw’s Assessments\n\n   - Given that the site's extreme archaeological value (a\n   1st-to-4th-century Roman precursor villa and a massive early medieval\n   monastic settlement) was verified by rescue operations as early as 1979,\n   what are the recorded reasons why Cadw failed to place a statutory\n   Schedule or Protection Order on the standing fabric of Great House Farm\n   before its demolition?\n   - All internal correspondence, risk assessments, or ministerial briefs\n   evaluating the preservation value of the sub-medieval direct-entry\n   farmhouse core before it was levelled.\n\n3.

Where I will be safer, seeing as\nevery member in my family which challenged the official narrative here are\ndead. Any assistance appreciated. I believe my disabled widow nan inherited\nthe fee simple absolute (and Manorial) title from the Marquess  of Bute, a\ndeal family before us made with Daniel Thomas and the Marquess of Bute. I\nbelieve Marconi staying with us while inventing the radio or boxer\n'Peerless' Jim Driscoll fighting his first boxing match at our barns, or\nwhen we did a tree planting ceremony (customary when obtaining land) with\nthe whole town there to witness and photo evidence in the nations\ncollection of wales, it was because we'd become the absolute and manorial\ntitle holders. My nan maintained this position in all court proceedings and\nin the local press. Like a 1978 interview and article which was suppressed.\nI also noticed ITV quietly declassified covering this 1988 story. Much like\nlittle to no evidence of the 1974 news coverage exists (which the courts\ndocument as having occured, wherby the public and press sided with my nan).\nAnd more suppressed evidence exists which I am trying to get declassified\ntoo. It appears her title was stolen and ended up in the hands of Western\nGround Rents and later BP who bought it from them. Who then tried and\nfailed to get my widow pensioner nan to play the role of her tenant and pay\nthem. Failing this they appear to have replaced us and the 800 year old\nfarmhouse they demolished, with 23 houses and people who would pay their\namortizations and virtual/ lifetime freeholds.   I am simply trying to put\ntogether this story which is evidently supressed and fragmented and has\ngaps. This is not just for my family , but the injustice to us indigenous\nand our history and herritage by the British State and BP is horrific. We\nappear to have been erazed of the face of the planet, but we're not . We're\nstill here Yma o Hyd and we seek answers. So if you could kindly do\neverything in your power to assist, so that this matter is put to rest I'd\nappreciate.

As noted in my email of 26 November last, while we cannot advise you on a legal case or undertake a review of historical decisions, we do hold information and archives related to Great House Farm, Llandough.\n\nThe site entry and description for the site in the National Monuments Record of Wales can be seen online on Coflein, here: https://coflein.gov.uk/en/site/20182.\n\nWe hold 14 archives related to the site, a list of which can be seen here: https://coflein.gov.uk/en/site/20182/archives?size=25. These archives can be viewed in our Search Room, located in the National Library of Wales, which is open Tuesday through Thursday, 9:30-16:30. If you would like to view the material in person, I would advise arranging with us beforehand so that we can prepare the material ahead of your visit. Some of the material is on microfiche and as we do not have a microfiche reader in the Search Room, we will need to liaise with the National Library Reading Room staff to try to negotiate the use of their machines ahead of your visit. However, I have located an electronic copy of Archive Number 6524751, which can be accessed here: https://www.walesher1974.org/her/app/php/herumd.php?group=GGAT&level=3&docid=301361628\n\nWhile it is possible to order scans of material using the attached order form, we may be unable to provide research-quality scans or photographs of some of the material, such as the material on microfiche, which would require high-resolution scanning at a cost of £20 per scan. Moreover,  many of these records remain under third-party copyright, and we would only be able to provide scans or copies for personal, non-commercial research. Other uses, such as use in a legal case or report would likely require the permission of the copyright holder(s). I would therefore advise arranging to view the material in person rather than ordering scans, if possible.\n\nFinally, I have confirmed with our Records Manager that we do not hold any correspondence related to the site.\n\nThank you again for your enquiry.\n\nSincerely,\n\nAdam Coward\n\n\n\nDr Adam Coward\n Rheolwr Llyfrgell ac Ymholiadau | Library and Enquiries Manager\nFfordd Penglais | Penglais Road, Aberystwyth, [postcode redacted]\n[phone redacted]\n[email redacted] | [email redacted]\nwww.cbhc.gov.uk | www.rcahmw.gov.uk\nNoddir gan Lywodraeth Cymru | Sponsored by Welsh Government\nRydym yn croesawu gohebiaeth yn Gymraeg a Saesneg.

Was a marriage certificate actually lodged with HM Land Registry as\n   part of the registration evidence relied upon by HM Land Registry, or are\n   you referring to information held elsewhere?\n   2. If such a certificate formed part of the registration evidence\n   considered by HM Land Registry, please identify the document relied upon\n   and whether copies may be requested.\n   3. Prior correspondence and BP licence letters before 1974, to my\n   understanding, referred to my grandmother as Mrs Williams. I am therefore\n   trying to understand the evidential chain relied upon and how identity\n   continuity was established.\n\nI also wish to clarify that my purpose has been to query and understand the\nhistorical record and registration process. I did not submit this as a\ncomplaint; my intention was to seek clarification and challenge aspects of\nthe historical narrative where I believe evidence may be incomplete or\ndisputed.\n\nMy concerns extend beyond the surname issue. I remain concerned about\nwhether all appropriate checks and safeguards were applied at the time of\nregistration and whether the underlying evidence was fully scrutinised.\n\nI understand HM Land Registry’s position that it records interests\npresented to it and is not a forum for determining disputes. However, I am\nstill gathering evidence and attempting to understand how these events\noccurred and whether any procedural irregularities existed.\n\nAt present I am not asking HM Land Registry to accept my conclusions. I am\nrequesting transparency regarding the evidence and process relied upon.\n\nThank you again for your reply.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Mon, 25 May 2026 at 13:16, Birkenhead.OfficeMail <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> The document attached is an official requisition, reminder or letter from\n> HM Land Registry.

Consider CADW on notice.\n\nAll I'm asking is you cooperate to find out what really happened in this\ncase.\n\nI'm putting together the timeline and all evidence as I believe its in the\npublic interest and I have reason to suspect fraud.\n\nMore so I believe my family have the rightful superior claim and manorial\ntitle.\n\nAs the possible, rightful possesor of lordship of manor of Llandough, I\nwould be the executor of the estate.\n\nFraud unravels all. And the limitation clock only begins from discovery not\noccurance of fraud. Which is this year.\n\nSo please consider yourselves, CADW, on formal notice of this concern I'm\nraising of fraud. Not just for reperations and narrative justice for my\nfamily, but for archelogical and historical corrections, as the gaps in\nrecords and proceedural unfairness and court mistakes and things like the\nITV press coverage and 1978 news article which appear to have been\nsupressed, all imply fraud.\n\nIn summary it looks as if we weren't tenants but in fact held virtual\nfreehold since 1667 and eventual fee simple absolute manorial title. Which\nwas stolen. And thereafter my families standing was diminished and we were\neventually dispossessed by armed force. Which neither estinguished our land\nclaim nor means we surrendered, transfered, sold or gifted it. And\ntherefore still retain claim. A reason to pursue this matter.\n\nMy family were and still are terrorised into silence and alledgedly nothing\ncould be done about this because of the time that has past. That was until\nI discovered the fraud.\n\nIt would be ill advised for CADW or individuals, to participate in any past\nor ongoing efforts to conseal occurances of fraud.\n\nAlso consider this a freedom of information request. I require of CADW\nanswers. Records. All you hold concerning my family and estate. Without\nfurther delay.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler Esq.

I am currently the only member of my family who is\n> not too traumatized to speak of these events. My mother (Mary Williams\n> daughter in law), remains to this day too terrified to speak up about this\n> multi-generational \"lawfare\" campaign waged against us. Our family have not\n> seen justice or received reperations, nor have we sued or reopened this\n> case under limitations act clauses of fraud and consealment. Yet. But this\n> may not be just a grave injustice upon our family, but our nations\n> archeological history and indigenous people on our ancestral birthland. We\n> are Welsh Nationals, Welsh speaking, under Welsh flags. This is some\n> British Colonisation-grade trespass I'm seeing and it's tandamount to a\n> declaration of civil war on me, my family, community and people.\n>\n> *The core of this report involves the following suspicions I have of\n> concealment and fraud (see attached for my timeline and notes):*\n>\n>    1. *Archaeological Suppression:* In 1888, my family discovered a Roman\n>    soldier in full armor beneath the living room floorboards. This discovery\n>    provided \"actual notice\" of the site's national significance a century\n>    before its demolition. We allege this notice was systematically suppressed\n>    by corporate and state actors to allow for commercial development.\n>    2. *Fraudulent Misrepresentation in Planning:* During the 1987\n>    planning process, the 13th-century fortified manor was described by\n>    developers as a \"dilapidated utility building\" or \"ruined barn\" to secure a\n>    demolition permit that would have otherwise been denied under heritage\n>    protection laws.\n>    3. *Legal Identity Falsification:* In 1974, BP Pension Trust issued a\n>    \"unilateral license\" intended to bypass our possessory title. This\n>    correspondence was falsely addressed to \"Mrs. Buckler\" to bind my\n>    grandmother to her deceased husband’s name and legal status, despite her\n>    public rejection of their claim. She used her maiden name Williams and her\n>    husband Bucklers' intent to accept license died with him. My nan also\n>    alledgedly didn't expressly deny the offer and so accepted through her\n>    silence. But she was near enough voiceless from screaming for decades that\n>    she will not do deals with any of them. That's a different kind of silence,\n>    if any. And to have responded to license to Mrs Buckler would have been\n>    identify fraud as she was Mrs Williams. And she did in fact reject BPs\n>    license offer and advanced, countless times, but publically. I believe\n>    these objections were suppressed too. There's allegedly news coverage from\n>    October 30th 1974 but I'm yet to find the evidence. But see attached a 1978\n>    article I unearthed. My nan clearly maintains her position \"It's my home\".\n>    4. You'll also see in landmark legal case BP Vs Buckler 1987 the judge\n>    says that she might have responded to BP, but to BP Pension Trust, but the\n>    claimant was BP Properties Ltd which were two separate companies. But in my\n>    dads appeal when he challenges that BP Pension Trust Ltd should have been\n>    the claimant the same judge dismissed his appeal citing both BP companies\n>    are effectively the same. This is clearly a case of heads BP won, Tails we\n>    lost.\n>    5. *Missing Evidence:* Critical title deeds and Bute Estate records\n>    from our families deal with Daniel Thomas, for title after quarrying\n>    completed, in exchange for our permission to quarry, also disappeared from\n>    the loft of our home and the Cardiff Library according to my families\n>    accounts, precisely when they were needed to support our ownership claim in\n>    the Court of Appeal. Regardless we should have still remained on grounds\n>    we'd been there since 1667, and failing that on grounds of adverse\n>    possession.\n>    6. It was evident lawfare to remove us, to get to the burials known\n>    about since 1888, BP profited from the land sale, the state and Crown have\n>    the exhevated artifacts and my displaced family are left traumatised,\n>    cheated and dead. My dad's appeal was dismissed to when it shouldn't have\n>    been and his ECHR request blocked, before dying abruptly at age just 41.\n>\n> The confirmation in 1994 of a high-status Roman villa and over 1,000\n> burials on the exact site of our demolished home proves that the \"official\n> narrative\" used to evict us was predicated on the concealment of known\n> facts.\n>\n> Under *Section 32 of the Limitation Act 1980*, the limitation period for\n> action does not begin until such fraud or concealment is discovered. As the\n> heir to this possessory title, I am seeking a formal investigation into the\n> institutional failures that permitted this dispossession and the\n> destruction of a national monument.\n>\n> I have compiled my account and understanding of these events in timeline\n> order and I'm prepared to provide further testimony and evidence.\n>\n> Given the extreme trauma my family has suffered, I request that all\n> correspondence be handled with the gravity this human rights violation\n> deserves.\n>\n> Considering the lack of cooperation from my traumatised family. And\n> authorities who maybe complicit and implicated. And possible corruption of\n> records and fraud and consealment, I'm open to the fact my account and\n> understanding may not be perfect. But if even a single other person or\n> group looked into this too, even briefly, I'm sure you'll agree there's\n> merrit to the concerns I'm raising with all of this.\n>\n> I look forward to your response regarding the appropriate next steps for\n> investigation and restitution.\n>\n> I do ask for some small sense of urgency in that justice delayed is\n> justice denied. I understand this is ancient news for many, but my family\n> still feel a tremendous sense of disposition and disposition over all of\n> this. Bringing this all up means to re live it.\n>\n> I will have been 3 or 4 at the time, but I still remember my toys in our\n> house, being bulldozed. And my mum handing us rocks to throw at them,\n> bulldozing down our home. As my dad was held without charges to prevent him\n> defending us and our home. I'd have to visit him in a hospital bed after\n> his heart attack and see him in a coffin shortly afterwards.\n>\n> I'm 41 years old now.

Then it was stolen and attempts were made by the\npossessor of the stolen title, to make my family lessee's / tenants as we\nwere when we were on the virtual freehold (999 year lease) aquired in 1667.\nThereafter it appears to be a death of a thousand cuts of proceedural\nunfairness, audacity, fraud, court \"mistakes\" , purgery and more.\n\nhttps://youtu.be/4GXmR7mAas0?feature=shared\n\nContemporaneous newspaper coverage from the 1970s and 1980s demonstrates\nthat these concerns were publicly known at the time, including heritage\nobjections, petitions, and public claims of ancestral ownership.\n\nI am requesting:\n\n   1. Review and preservation consideration of all surviving records\n   connected to Great House Farm.\n   2.

With press and courts falsly labelling and treating us as squatters in favor of the false narrative of those who stole my disabled, widow nans fee simple absolute title. For which we remain dispossessed, defrauded and without justice or even narrative justice, unto this day. The public also lost a site of historic and archelogical significants and were lied to about what went on. The land looted of artefacts too, which is a loss to our nation and people.\n\nI apologise if any of this is incoherent. I am the only member of my family willing to speak out; the rest, who are nearly all women (sisters, mum, aunties etc), are petrified of the repercussions, given what happened to our family in the 1980s. Or dead from this. My father, nan, grandad and possibly great grandad and maybe more, all potentially murdered.\n\nAll this is also chilling in that the playbook used here, could be industrial scale and nationwide and have occured to other families too. Our case might be the foundations for a class action for the public.\n\nI write to summarise our position regarding the historical and ongoing dispossession of Great House Farm, Llandough, following the landmark legal case *BP v Buckler* [1987], which I allege involved a myriad of fraud, theft, crimes and proceedural unfairness, gaps in records, supressed and concealed records, human rights violations and literally almost every injustice imaginable; not withstanding it was over decades for our family;\n\n- **Denial of the right to be heard by the Land Registry.** My grandmother, Mary Williams (falsely named \"Mrs Buckler\" on the licence letter produced by BP in 1974, in order to diminish the Williams ancestral superior land claim), conveniently died while our family was in mourning during the limited window granted by the Land Registry to challenge BP's registration of our land and property in their name in 1982/83. Similarly, my grandfather died before he was able to clarify—even to my grandmother—how her fee simple absolute title deed ended up in BP's possession. Until her dying breath, she maintained her ownership claim, despite repeated unlawful attempts over decades to dislodge the firm position she held regarding her and our undisputed ancestral and superior land claim. The official records and narrative are wrong; there are court errors, suppressed evidence, procedural unfairness, fraud, and the list goes on.\n\nThe *BP v Buckler* [1987] ruling applied the licence my deceased grandmother held to my father and mother. They never had, nor entered into, any such agreement with BP. The ruling also alleged that my grandmother accepted BP's licence letters by non-response, which was untrue. It further stated that any objection should have been directed to the BP Pension Trust rather than the claimant, BP Properties, which were deemed separate companies. Yet in my father's subsequent appeal against the *BP v Buckler* ruling, his appeal was dismissed on the grounds that the BP companies were effectively the same—so \"heads BP wins, tails we lose.\" Our 800-year-old home was then demolished and all money and possessions removed, despite a court injunction ordering that nothing be removed. My father's ECHR application was blocked; he was arrested without charge, hospitalised, and then he conveniently died at the age of 41. Our remaining family, consisting mostly of women and children, have to this day been too terrified to speak about this case because of the decades of crimes committed against our household by the British State. It was synonymous with a battle or war. I say this as a military warfare professional and Iraq War veteran: a certified and experienced military commander and leader. I concluded my military career with honours as an Acting Sergeant. My profession is cyber and electronic warfare.\n\nAccording to recently declassified, previously suppressed ITV news coverage from 1988, bailiffs occupied our stolen land and property, and even dislocated my mother's shoulder for simply serving them a lawful court injunction. I also question how ITV came to declassify and publish this footage to YouTube a few months ago, after the months I have spent seeking information. That did not go unnoticed. There is liability there, and I do not accept ITV's belief that this quiet release of suppressed news coverage makes the matter right—though the action is appreciated. How did it come to be suppressed in the first place? And why is it cut abruptly, at what appears to be SAS performing a siege on my family home and dislocating my pregnant mother's shoulder?\n\nWithout my discovery of fraud this year—which has taken me two decades, a career in military cyber and electronic warfare, and recent innovations in AI to discover and unravel—we had no redress or recourse due to the statute of limitations and the passage of time, notwithstanding that we were all too traumatised, like hostages under terrorists, to speak out. We have received no support to this day for what we were subjected to.\n\nThis whole affair, even to this day, represents scandalous treatment of me and my family. We never surrendered our claim. The manorial titles of the Manor of Llandough are rightfully ours. The fee simple absolute title has been ours for over a century, a fact that is also suppressed and withheld from the defrauded—and implicated—Land Registry.\n\nI am also a war veteran who left my military career with honours and was employed until 2024 under the Vale of Glamorgan Council / Welsh Government. I completed my 22 years' service oath *bona fide*. I am an indigenous Welsh Briton, and this is my ancestral birthland (established 1667). The disrespect shown by the Vale MP and Llandough Councillor in simply ignoring me and this matter is abhorrent.\n\nITV coverage (suppressed until recent months) also reports that neighbours described the eviction as an \"SAS-style operation\" to remove us by force in 1988 (myself included). The men in the video do look like SAS. I have submitted an FOI request to the MOD. Shareholders of mine are SAS, so I shall find out one way or another, even if I receive an NCND reply. This matter was also raised in Parliament, who classified and disposed of the records.\n\nMargaret Thatcher's administration at the time (the British Government) was evidently assisting BP in clawing assets for the UK Government's sale and exit at the time, which might explain how 30 police—and possibly SAS—were used to rip us from our home and land. The human rights violations remain unanswered.\n\nThe Land Registry ultimately had checks and balances lifted and total free rein during Thatcher's reign, while BP's lawyers evidently committed perjury in their declarations to the Land Registry, withholding information from it and supplying it with false information.\n\nAll the while, Welsh television was simultaneously interviewing Gaddafi in Libya in 1988, where he accused Thatcher and the British State of being the real terrorists, not him. My oath ended in 2024; I am also a Welsh national. I have no allegiance to the British State. If it acts like my enemy, it is my enemy. I am absolutely a Welsh national and counter-officer now that it is so evident the British State waged civil war upon us indigenous Britons—me and my family included—on our ancestral birthland.\n\nOther media coverage alleged by UK courts to exist from 1974 seems non-existent or suppressed too. Much is behind paywalls. This whole case needs to be in the public eye. I have put everyone I can think of on notice.\n\nFraud and procedural unfairness are ultimately rampant in the case of my family's dispossession. Aside from all my family members dying at convenient junctures instrumental in the windows to change the outcome, I still have major concerns regarding how the MOJ took months to respond only to fob me off last week; how the MP fobbed me off and will not provide a proper response; how CADW and Llandough Parish allege this is nothing to do with them, despite CADW failing to list the farmhouse as Grade II so it could be demolished (as per a 1,700-signature petition, which was practically the whole town at the time); the current councillor for Llandough failing to reply properly; and the fact that the National Archives report gaps, missing records, and suppressed records. Notwithstanding that Marconi was staying with us while inventing radio, and the town will not even put a plaque up to commemorate this, which is further erasure of the history and known (but suppressed) archaeological and historic significance of the site. In BP's planning application records, they state that our 800-year-old former courthouse home was merely an old, dilapidated building.\n\nNotwithstanding the suppression of the 1870 Roman soldier remains we discovered when changing our floor from stone to timber, also suppressed to hide the site's archaeological significance so that housing development could be unlawfully approved. BP did not even seek a ruling on ownership; they only sought possession, most likely so that the discovery and significance of the site's archaeology could be pretended not to be known until the excavation of our land in 1994—which is further evidence of blatant conspiracy and fraud.\n\nThese are the actions of a crime or terrorist network, seeking to install a terrorist cell or camp. It is worse than simply the British colonising Wales.\n\nNotwithstanding the child graves secretly moved from the church next door during the excavation, which seemed to take ten years to be properly reported on, and even then their numbers in the report appear to be underrepresented.\n\nThe scandal continues endlessly. There are court errors too. The fancy Latin words diminish and falsely describe my grandmother's land claim and superior ownership (it was \"older than man can remember,\" not merely a \"claim to the land\"). The language used by the court clearly demonstrates bias prior to the ruling—language implying that my late grandmother, Mrs Williams (*not* Mrs Buckler, as they falsely named her in document fraud), was imagining her ancestral superior land claim, in order to discredit her through carefully selected judicial wording.\n\nMy siblings and I remain the heirs and successors and landowners. Nothing has lawfully broken or undone that claim. We demand that the fraud, corruption, gaps in records, false records, and myriad crimes committed against us be addressed and not ignored. There should be a Senedd public inquiry into this. My family should not be dispossessed a second longer. We are seriously looking at £100 million in reparations if the truth of this matter becomes known, given the scale of the scandal and injustice.\n\nIn 1667 we acquired the land and property in a 999-year lease (virtual freehold). In the early 1900s we obtained the superior paper title—free and clear, outright equitable ownership—via the deal with Bute Estate quarryman Daniel Thomas, which led to the tree-planting ceremony to affirm this in history. *(See attached.)*\n\nFrederick Buckler's transfer of Mrs Williams's equitable title to BP and their predecessors, without her knowledge or consent, is not legitimate and should never have stood, nor does it stand to reason. His inability to clarify the details of the alleged transaction due to his convenient death afterwards does not make it right, as Mary Williams maintained her position after his death. It was never his title to sell, even if he did. My grandmother was left unable to prove her standing, and the 1974 hearing was adjourned. The dismissal of the second hearings in 1974 due to the licence letter issued by BP (resorting to identity and document fraud) does not negate the fact that there was never a ruling stating BP owned our land, despite their purchasing my grandmother's stolen fee simple absolute title deed. BP only ever sought possession. They could not obtain a ruling because it would have meant discovery, unveiling the archaeological significance that would have prevented land and housing development.\n\nThis was a coordinated campaign of fraud, stealth, and administrative erasure spanning decades, employing force, secrecy, and fraudulent licence. By hook and by crook we were dispossessed of our land. Thatcher—and potentially the SAS—make it, at the least, an allodial/eminent domain seizure, in which case we should still be due compensation.\n\nI fail to see the proclaimed authority of the other men on my land, alleging themselves to be a government and citizens rather than terrorists, who both ostracised and held my family hostage, if legitimacy does not exist. You need legitimacy to claim authority.\n\n**Summary of the Fraudulent Dispossession:**\n\n**The Title Theft:** Evidence supports that a \"Title-for-Quarrying\" agreement existed with Daniel Thomas of the Bute Estate. We obtained this fee simple absolute title lawfully, but it was later secretly and fraudulently taken and sold back to Bute / Western Ground Rents / BP without the knowledge or consent of the rightful owner, Mary Williams. Parliament even stated on record how criminal Western Ground Rents were.\n\n**Procedural Fraud (The 1974 Licence):** The 1987 Court of Appeal ruling was predicated on a unilateral \"licence letter\" issued by the landlords' solicitors. We reject this ruling. It should be set aside on grounds of fraud.\n\n**Identity Erasure:** Throughout all legal proceedings, Mary Williams was intentionally misidentified as \"Mrs Buckler.\" This was a calculated tactic to strip her of her ancestral \"Williams\" lineage and the superior land rights and claim associated with it.\n\n**Exploitation of Mortality:**\n- **Frederick Buckler:** Died before the circumstances of how Mary was dispossessed of her title—and how the other parties regained possession after the lawful Daniel Thomas (and/or Anthony Williams) dealings with Bute Estate—could be clarified. This is inconsequential, much like Mary's own death; neither changed her position on the matter, which she did voice, despite what the 1987 ruling falsely alleges.\n- **Mary Williams:** Died during the precise two-week window required to rebut the Land Registry's registration of the land in BP's name—a window we believe was exploited to finalise this theft. At minimum, this is the case; it is more likely she was murdered. Her husband before her too. And my father, William Buckler, given the convenient timing of all their deaths—not to mention the unfair dismissal of my father's appeal, the blocking of his ECHR request, the theft and demolition of his property and our home prior to his death.\n\n**Our Position:**\nThe Williams family (now the Buckler family) has never ceased our claim. We maintain that the land was taken through criminal stealth and that the current registered titles are poisoned by this original fraud. We seek full reparations for the loss of ancestral wealth, the destruction of the Roman archaeological site on the property, and the systematic denial of our right to a fair trial.\n\nPlease provide a formal response and update regarding your position on this matter within 14 days. Please also hold to account those taking steps back into the shadows, as this only makes the matter more clandestine and therefore makes me very jumpy as a military warfare professional. I already fly in and out as if on another tour of the Middle East, and my family remain hostages under terrorists.\n\nI would also ask that Companies House, who have recently tried to criminalise me, give me some space. They gave me three options to submit ID: a questionnaire with passport and driving licence (which I provided); Post Office verification; or Digital ID. I chose the first option. They will not accept it. But I will not be lured to a location of their choosing, nor will I put any of their tracking ID applications on my devices. I do not trust the regime on that island. Until this and another unnamed matter of similar scale is resolved, I consider the British Government a terrorist organisation and do not recognise its authority. My family there are hostages under said terrorists. And Church View Close, Llandough—23 houses—is a terrorist cell/camp on my land.\n\nMarconi was staying with us in Llandough when he invented radio. This too was covered up. Cardiff City will not put a plaque naming Marconi as the inventor on the statue of a radio at Cardiff Bay—not even a plaque to commemorate it. Llandough should be a tourist attraction based on this fact alone, rather than the occupying terrorist network's cell of 23 houses, as I see it.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler Esq.

With press and courts falsly labelling and treating us as\nsquatters in favor of the false narrative of those who stole my disabled,\nwidow nans fee simple absolute title. For which we remain dispossessed,\ndefrauded and without justice or even narrative justice, unto this day. The\npublic also lost a site of historic and archelogical significants and were\nlied to about what went on. The land looted of artefacts too, which is a\nloss to our nation and people.\n\nI apologise if any of this is incoherent. I am the only member of my family\nwilling to speak out; the rest, who are nearly all women (sisters, mum,\naunties etc), are petrified of the repercussions, given what happened to\nour family in the 1980s. Or dead from this. My father, nan, grandad and\npossibly great grandad and maybe more, all potentially murdered.\n\nAll this is also chilling in that the playbook used here, could be\nindustrial scale and nationwide and have occured to other families too. Our\ncase might be the foundations for a class action for the public.\n\nI write to summarise our position regarding the historical and ongoing\ndispossession of Great House Farm, Llandough, following the landmark legal\ncase *BP v Buckler* [1987], which I allege involved a myriad of fraud,\ntheft, crimes and proceedural unfairness, gaps in records, supressed and\nconcealed records, human rights violations and literally almost every\ninjustice imaginable; not withstanding it was over decades for our family;\n\n- **Denial of the right to be heard by the Land Registry.** My grandmother,\nMary Williams (falsely named \"Mrs Buckler\" on the licence letter produced\nby BP in 1974, in order to diminish the Williams ancestral superior land\nclaim), conveniently died while our family was in mourning during the\nlimited window granted by the Land Registry to challenge BP's registration\nof our land and property in their name in 1982/83. Similarly, my\ngrandfather died before he was able to clarify—even to my grandmother—how\nher fee simple absolute title deed ended up in BP's possession. Until her\ndying breath, she maintained her ownership claim, despite repeated unlawful\nattempts over decades to dislodge the firm position she held regarding her\nand our undisputed ancestral and superior land claim. The official records\nand narrative are wrong; there are court errors, suppressed evidence,\nprocedural unfairness, fraud, and the list goes on.\n\nThe *BP v Buckler* [1987] ruling applied the licence my deceased\ngrandmother held to my father and mother. They never had, nor entered into,\nany such agreement with BP. The ruling also alleged that my grandmother\naccepted BP's licence letters by non-response, which was untrue. It further\nstated that any objection should have been directed to the BP Pension Trust\nrather than the claimant, BP Properties, which were deemed separate\ncompanies. Yet in my father's subsequent appeal against the *BP v Buckler*\nruling, his appeal was dismissed on the grounds that the BP companies were\neffectively the same—so \"heads BP wins, tails we lose.\" Our 800-year-old\nhome was then demolished and all money and possessions removed, despite a\ncourt injunction ordering that nothing be removed. My father's ECHR\napplication was blocked; he was arrested without charge, hospitalised, and\nthen he conveniently died at the age of 41. Our remaining family,\nconsisting mostly of women and children, have to this day been too\nterrified to speak about this case because of the decades of crimes\ncommitted against our household by the British State. It was synonymous\nwith a battle or war. I say this as a military warfare professional and\nIraq War veteran: a certified and experienced military commander and\nleader. I concluded my military career with honours as an Acting Sergeant.\nMy profession is cyber and electronic warfare.\n\nAccording to recently declassified, previously suppressed ITV news coverage\nfrom 1988, bailiffs occupied our stolen land and property, and even\ndislocated my mother's shoulder for simply serving them a lawful court\ninjunction. I also question how ITV came to declassify and publish this\nfootage to YouTube a few months ago, after the months I have spent seeking\ninformation. That did not go unnoticed. There is liability there, and I do\nnot accept ITV's belief that this quiet release of suppressed news coverage\nmakes the matter right—though the action is appreciated. How did it come to\nbe suppressed in the first place? And why is it cut abruptly, at what\nappears to be SAS performing a siege on my family home and dislocating my\npregnant mother's shoulder?\n\nWithout my discovery of fraud this year—which has taken me two decades, a\ncareer in military cyber and electronic warfare, and recent innovations in\nAI to discover and unravel—we had no redress or recourse due to the statute\nof limitations and the passage of time, notwithstanding that we were all\ntoo traumatised, like hostages under terrorists, to speak out. We have\nreceived no support to this day for what we were subjected to.\n\nThis whole affair, even to this day, represents scandalous treatment of me\nand my family. We never surrendered our claim. The manorial titles of the\nManor of Llandough are rightfully ours. The fee simple absolute title has\nbeen ours for over a century, a fact that is also suppressed and withheld\nfrom the defrauded—and implicated—Land Registry.\n\nI am also a war veteran who left my military career with honours and was\nemployed until 2024 under the Vale of Glamorgan Council / Welsh Government.\nI completed my 22 years' service oath *bona fide*. I am an indigenous Welsh\nBriton, and this is my ancestral birthland (established 1667).

We reject this document as a fraudulent instrument of stealth designed to bypass adverse possession rights without Mary Williams’ agreement.\n  *   Identity Erasure: Throughout all legal proceedings, Mary Williams was intentionally misidentified as \"Mrs. Buckler.\" This was a calculated tactic to strip her of her ancestral \"Williams\" lineage and the superior land rights associated with it.\n  *   Exploitation of Mortality:\n\n     *   Frederick Buckler: Died before the truth of the title sale could be brought to light.\n     *   Mary Williams: Died during the precise 2-week window required to rebut the Land Registry’s registration of the land in BP’s name—a window we believe was exploited to finalize a theft.\n     *   William Buckler: His untimely death following the unfair dismissal of his appeal effectively blocked our path to the ECHR.\nOur Position:\nThe Williams family has never ceased its claim. We maintain that the land was taken through criminal stealth and that the current registered titles are \"poisoned\" by this original fraud. We are now seeking full reparations for the loss of ancestral wealth, the destruction of the Roman archaeological site on the property, and the systematic denial of our right to a fair trial.\nPlease provide a formal response and update regarding your position on this matter within 14 days.\nRegards,\nSion Buckler\nOn behalf of and one of the Heirs and Successors of Mary Williams"},{"id":"gm-19e187ca2406887f","subject":"Automatic reply: Resolution of Historical Dispossession and Fraud – Great House Farm, Llandough, Vale of Glamorgan","name":"Automatic reply: Resolution of Historical Dispossession and Fraud – Great House Farm, Llandough, Vale of Glamorgan","date":"2026-05-11T19:21:19Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19e187ca2406887f.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19e187ca2406887f-automatic-reply-resolution-of-historical-dispossession-and-fraud-great-house-farm-llandough-vale-of-glamorgan","scopeTopics":["senedd"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["senedd"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19e187ca2406887f","direction":"received","from":"Hutt, Jane","institutions":[{"id":"senedd","name":"Senedd"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19e187ca2406887f.json","textStatus":"available","text":"The Senedd has been dissolved, and as a result Jane Hutt is no longer a Member.

For which\nwe remain dispossessed, defrauded and without justice or even narrative\njustice, unto this day. The public also lost a site of historic and\narchelogical significants and were lied to about what went on. The land\nlooted too, which is a loss to our nation and people.\n\nI apologise if any of this is incoherent.

Or dead from this. My father, nan, grandad and\npossibly great grandad and maybe more, all potentially murdered.\n\nAll this is also chilling in that the playbook used here, could be\nindustrial scale and nationwide  and have occured to other families too.\nOur case might be the foundations for a class action for the public.\n\nI write to summarise our position regarding the historical and ongoing\ndispossession of Great House Farm, Llandough, following the landmark legal\ncase *BP v Buckler* [1987], which I allege involved:\n\n- **Denial of the right to be heard by the Land Registry.** My grandmother,\nMary Williams (falsely named \"Mrs Buckler\" on the licence letter produced\nby BP in 1974, in order to diminish the Williams ancestral superior land\nclaim), conveniently died while our family was in mourning during the\nlimited window granted by the Land Registry to challenge BP's registration\nof our land and property in their name in 1982/83. Similarly, my\ngrandfather died before he was able to clarify—even to my grandmother—how\nher fee simple absolute title deed ended up in BP's possession. Until her\ndying breath, she maintained her ownership claim, despite repeated unlawful\nattempts over decades to dislodge the firm position she held regarding her\nand our undisputed ancestral and superior land claim. The official records\nand narrative are wrong; there are court errors, suppressed evidence,\nprocedural unfairness, fraud, and the list goes on.\n\nThe *BP v Buckler* [1987] ruling applied the licence my deceased\ngrandmother held to my father and mother. They never had, nor entered into,\nany such agreement with BP. The ruling also alleged that my grandmother\naccepted BP's licence letters by non-response, which was untrue. It further\nstated that any objection should have been directed to the BP Pension Trust\nrather than the claimant, BP Properties, which were deemed separate\ncompanies. Yet in my father's subsequent appeal against the *BP v Buckler*\nruling, his appeal was dismissed on the grounds that the BP companies were\neffectively the same—so \"heads BP wins, tails we lose.\" Our 800-year-old\nhome was then demolished and all money and possessions removed, despite a\ncourt injunction ordering that nothing be removed. My father's ECHR\napplication was blocked; he was arrested without charge, hospitalised, and\nthen he conveniently died at the age of 41. Our remaining family,\nconsisting mostly of women and children, have to this day been too\nterrified to speak about this case because of the decades of crimes\ncommitted against our household by the British State. It was synonymous\nwith a battle or war. I say this as a military warfare professional and\nIraq War veteran: a certified and experienced military commander and\nleader. I concluded my military career with honours as an Acting Sergeant.\nMy profession is cyber and electronic warfare.\n\nAccording to recently declassified, previously suppressed ITV news coverage\nfrom 1988, bailiffs occupied our stolen land and property, and even\ndislocated my mother's shoulder for simply serving them a lawful court\ninjunction. I also question how ITV came to declassify and publish this\nfootage to YouTube a few months ago, after the months I have spent seeking\ninformation. That did not go unnoticed. There is liability there, and I do\nnot accept ITV's belief that this quiet release of suppressed news coverage\nmakes the matter right—though the action is appreciated. How did it come to\nbe suppressed in the first place? And why is it cut abruptly, at what\nappears to be SAS performing a siege on my family home and dislocating my\npregnant mother's shoulder?\n\nWithout my discovery of fraud this year—which has taken me two decades, a\ncareer in military cyber and electronic warfare, and recent innovations in\nAI to discover and unravel—we had no redress or recourse due to the statute\nof limitations and the passage of time, notwithstanding that we were all\ntoo traumatised, like hostages under terrorists, to speak out. We have\nreceived no support to this day for what we were subjected to.\n\nThis whole affair, even to this day, represents scandalous treatment of me\nand my family. We never surrendered our claim. The manorial titles of the\nManor of Llandough are rightfully ours. The fee simple absolute title has\nbeen ours for over a century, a fact that is also suppressed and withheld\nfrom the defrauded—and implicated—Land Registry.\n\nI am also a war veteran who left my military career with honours and was\nemployed until 2024 under the Vale of Glamorgan Council / Welsh Government.\nI completed my 22 years' service oath *bona fide*. I am an indigenous Welsh\nBriton, and this is my ancestral birthland (established 1667). The\ndisrespect shown by the Vale MP and Llandough Councillor in simply ignoring\nme and this matter is abhorrent.\n\nITV coverage (suppressed until recent months) also reports that neighbours\ndescribed the eviction as an \"SAS-style operation\" to remove us by force in\n1988 (myself included). The men in the video do look like SAS. I have\nsubmitted an FOI request to the MOD. Shareholders of mine are SAS, so I\nshall find out one way or another, even if I receive an NCND reply. This\nmatter was also raised in Parliament, who classified and disposed of the\nrecords.\n\nMargaret Thatcher's administration at the time (the British Government) was\nevidently assisting BP in clawing assets for the UK Government's sale and\nexit at the time, which might explain how 30 police—and possibly SAS—were\nused to rip us from our home and land. The human rights violations remain\nunanswered.\n\nThe Land Registry ultimately had checks and balances lifted and total free\nrein during Thatcher's reign, while BP's lawyers evidently committed\nperjury in their declarations to the Land Registry, withholding information\nfrom it and supplying it with false information.\n\nAll the while, Welsh television was simultaneously interviewing Gaddafi in\nLibya in 1988, where he accused Thatcher and the British State of being the\nreal terrorists, not him. My oath ended in 2024; I am also a Welsh\nnational. I have no allegiance to the British State. If it acts like my\nenemy, it is my enemy. I am absolutely a Welsh national and counter-officer\nnow that it is so evident the British State waged civil war upon us\nindigenous Britons—me and my family included—on our ancestral birthland.\n\nOther media coverage alleged by UK courts to exist from 1974 seems\nnon-existent or suppressed too. Much is behind paywalls. This whole case\nneeds to be in the public eye. I have put everyone I can think of on notice.\n\nFraud and procedural unfairness are ultimately rampant in the case of my\nfamily's dispossession. Aside from all my family members dying at\nconvenient junctures instrumental in the windows to change the outcome, I\nstill have major concerns regarding how the MOJ took months to respond only\nto fob me off last week; how the MP fobbed me off and will not provide a\nproper response; how CADW and Llandough Parish allege this is nothing to do\nwith them, despite CADW failing to list the farmhouse as Grade II so it\ncould be demolished (as per a 1,700-signature petition, which was\npractically the whole town at the time); the current councillor for\nLlandough failing to reply properly; and the fact that the National\nArchives report gaps, missing records, and suppressed records.\nNotwithstanding that Marconi was staying with us while inventing radio, and\nthe town will not even put a plaque up to commemorate this, which is\nfurther erasure of the history and known (but suppressed) archaeological\nand historic significance of the site. In BP's planning application\nrecords, they state that our 800-year-old former courthouse home was merely\nan old, dilapidated building.\n\nNotwithstanding the suppression of the 1870 Roman soldier remains we\ndiscovered when changing our floor from stone to timber, also suppressed to\nhide the site's archaeological significance so that housing development\ncould be unlawfully approved. BP did not even seek a ruling on ownership;\nthey only sought possession, most likely so that the discovery and\nsignificance of the site's archaeology could be pretended not to be known\nuntil the excavation of our land in 1994—which is further evidence of\nblatant conspiracy and fraud.\n\nThese are the actions of a crime or terrorist network, seeking to install a\nterrorist cell or camp. It is worse than simply the British colonising\nWales.\n\nNotwithstanding the child graves secretly moved from the church next door\nduring the excavation, which seemed to take ten years to be properly\nreported on, and even then their numbers in the report appear to be\nunderrepresented.\n\nThe scandal continues endlessly. There are court errors too. The fancy\nLatin words diminish and falsely describe my grandmother's land claim and\nsuperior ownership (it was \"older than man can remember,\" not merely a\n\"claim to the land\"). The language used by the court clearly demonstrates\nbias prior to the ruling—language implying that my late grandmother, Mrs\nWilliams (*not* Mrs Buckler, as they falsely named her in document fraud),\nwas imagining her ancestral superior land claim, in order to discredit her\nthrough carefully selected judicial wording.\n\nMy siblings and I remain the heirs and successors and landowners. Nothing\nhas lawfully broken or undone that claim. We demand that the fraud,\ncorruption, gaps in records, false records, and myriad crimes committed\nagainst us be addressed and not ignored. There should be a Senedd public\ninquiry into this. My family should not be dispossessed a second longer. We\nare seriously looking at £100 million in reparations if the truth of this\nmatter becomes known, given the scale of the scandal and injustice.\n\nIn 1667 we acquired the land and property in a 999-year lease (virtual\nfreehold). In the early 1900s we obtained the superior paper title—free and\nclear, outright equitable ownership—via the deal with Bute Estate quarryman\nDaniel Thomas, which led to the tree-planting ceremony to affirm this in\nhistory. *(See attached.)*\n\nFrederick Buckler's transfer of Mrs Williams's equitable title to BP and\ntheir predecessors, without her knowledge or consent, is not legitimate and\nshould never have stood, nor does it stand to reason. His inability to\nclarify the details of the alleged transaction due to his convenient death\nafterwards does not make it right, as Mary Williams maintained her position\nafter his death. It was never his title to sell, even if he did. My\ngrandmother was left unable to prove her standing, and the 1974 hearing was\nadjourned. The dismissal of the second hearings in 1974 due to the licence\nletter issued by BP (resorting to identity and document fraud) does not\nnegate the fact that there was never a ruling stating BP owned our land,\ndespite their purchasing my grandmother's stolen fee simple absolute title\ndeed. BP only ever sought possession. They could not obtain a ruling\nbecause it would have meant discovery, unveiling the archaeological\nsignificance that would have prevented land and housing development.\n\nThis was a coordinated campaign of fraud, stealth, and administrative\nerasure spanning decades, employing force, secrecy, and fraudulent licence.\nBy hook and by crook we were dispossessed of our land. Thatcher—and\npotentially the SAS—make it, at the least, an allodial/eminent domain\nseizure, in which case we should still be due compensation.\n\nI fail to see the proclaimed authority of the other men on my land,\nalleging themselves to be a government and citizens rather than terrorists,\nwho both ostracised and held my family hostage, if legitimacy does not\nexist. You need legitimacy to claim authority.\n\n**Summary of the Fraudulent Dispossession:**\n\n**The Title Theft:** Evidence supports that a \"Title-for-Quarrying\"\nagreement existed with Daniel Thomas of the Bute Estate. We obtained this\nfee simple absolute title lawfully, but it was later secretly and\nfraudulently taken and sold back to Bute / Western Ground Rents / BP\nwithout the knowledge or consent of the rightful owner, Mary Williams.\nParliament even stated on record how criminal Western Ground Rents were.\n\n**Procedural Fraud (The 1974 Licence):** The 1987 Court of Appeal ruling\nwas predicated on a unilateral \"licence letter\" issued by the landlords'\nsolicitors. We reject this ruling. It should be set aside on grounds of\nfraud.\n\n**Identity Erasure:** Throughout all legal proceedings, Mary Williams was\nintentionally misidentified as \"Mrs Buckler.\" This was a calculated tactic\nto strip her of her ancestral \"Williams\" lineage and the superior land\nrights and claim associated with it.\n\n**Exploitation of Mortality:**\n- **Frederick Buckler:** Died before the circumstances of how Mary was\ndispossessed of her title—and how the other parties regained possession\nafter the lawful Daniel Thomas (and/or Anthony Williams) dealings with Bute\nEstate—could be clarified. This is inconsequential, much like Mary's own\ndeath; neither changed her position on the matter, which she did voice,\ndespite what the 1987 ruling falsely alleges.\n- **Mary Williams:** Died during the precise two-week window required to\nrebut the Land Registry's registration of the land in BP's name—a window we\nbelieve was exploited to finalise this theft. At minimum, this is the case;\nit is more likely she was murdered. Her husband before her too. And my\nfather, William Buckler, given the convenient timing of all their\ndeaths—not to mention the unfair dismissal of my father's appeal, the\nblocking of his ECHR request, the theft and demolition of his property and\nour home prior to his death.\n\n**Our Position:**\nThe Williams family (now the Buckler family) has never ceased our claim. We\nmaintain that the land was taken through criminal stealth and that the\ncurrent registered titles are poisoned by this original fraud. We seek full\nreparations for the loss of ancestral wealth, the destruction of the Roman\narchaeological site on the property, and the systematic denial of our right\nto a fair trial.\n\nPlease provide a formal response and update regarding your position on this\nmatter within 14 days. Please also hold to account those taking steps back\ninto the shadows, as this only makes the matter more clandestine and\ntherefore makes me very jumpy as a military warfare professional. I already\nfly in and out as if on another tour of the Middle East, and my family\nremain hostages under terrorists.\n\nI would also ask that Companies House, who have recently tried to\ncriminalise me, give me some space. They gave me three options to submit\nID: a questionnaire with passport and driving licence (which I provided);\nPost Office verification; or Digital ID. I chose the first option. They\nwill not accept it. But I will not be lured to a location of their\nchoosing, nor will I put any of their tracking ID applications on my\ndevices. I do not trust the regime on that island. Until this and another\nunnamed matter of similar scale is resolved, I consider the British\nGovernment a terrorist organisation and do not recognise its authority. My\nfamily there are hostages under said terrorists. And Church View Close,\nLlandough—23 houses—is a terrorist cell/camp on my land.\n\nMarconi was staying with us in Llandough when he invented radio. This too\nwas covered up. Cardiff City will not put a plaque naming Marconi as the\ninventor on the statue of a radio at Cardiff Bay—not even a plaque to\ncommemorate it. Llandough should be a tourist attraction based on this fact\nalone, rather than the occupying terrorist network's cell of 23 houses, as\nI see it.\n\nRegards,\n\n**Sion Buckler Esq.** (Ret'd Sgt)\nOn behalf of and as one of the Heirs and Successors of Mary Williams, Great\nHouse Farm, Llandough, Vale of Glamorgan\n\n---"},{"id":"gm-19e1877ed4a7b727","subject":"Resolution of Historical Dispossession and Fraud – Great House Farm, Llandough, Vale of Glamorgan","name":"Resolution of Historical Dispossession and Fraud – Great House Farm, Llandough, Vale of Glamorgan","date":"2026-05-11T19:16:00Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19e1877ed4a7b727.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19e187143a277d81-solution-of-historical-dispossession-and-fraud-great-house-farm-llandough-vale-of-glamorgan","scopeTopics":["senedd"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["senedd"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19e187143a277d81","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"senedd","name":"Senedd"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19e1877ed4a7b727.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Sir/Madam,\n\nI write on behalf of myself and my siblings, who are the heirs and\nsuccessors of Mary Williams of the Williams family, the rightful owners and\noccupiers of Great House Farm, Llandough, since 1667 until our unlawful,\nunconstitution and inhumane dispossession by armed force in 1988.

The fancy\nLatin words diminish and falsely describe my grandmother's land claim and\nsuperior ownership (it was \"older than man can remember,\" not merely a\n\"claim to the land\"). The language used by the court clearly demonstrates\nbias prior to the ruling—language implying that my late grandmother, Mrs\nWilliams (*not* Mrs Buckler, as they falsely named her in document fraud),\nwas imagining her ancestral superior land claim, in order to discredit her\nthrough carefully selected judicial wording.\n\nMy siblings and I remain the heirs and successors and landowners. Nothing\nhas lawfully broken or undone that claim. We demand that the fraud,\ncorruption, gaps in records, false records, and myriad crimes committed\nagainst us be addressed and not ignored. There should be a Senedd public\ninquiry into this. My family should not be dispossessed a second longer. We\nare seriously looking at £100 million in reparations if the truth of this\nmatter becomes known, given the scale of the scandal and injustice.\n\nIn 1667 we acquired the land and property in a 999-year lease (virtual\nfreehold). In the early 1900s we obtained the superior paper title—free and\nclear, outright equitable ownership—via the deal with Bute Estate quarryman\nDaniel Thomas, which led to the tree-planting ceremony to affirm this in\nhistory. *(See attached.)*\n\nFrederick Buckler's transfer of Mrs Williams's equitable title to BP and\ntheir predecessors, without her knowledge or consent, is not legitimate and\nshould never have stood, nor does it stand to reason. His inability to\nclarify the details of the alleged transaction due to his convenient death\nafterwards does not make it right, as Mary Williams maintained her position\nafter his death. It was never his title to sell, even if he did. My\ngrandmother was left unable to prove her standing, and the 1974 hearing was\nadjourned. The dismissal of the second hearings in 1974 due to the licence\nletter issued by BP (resorting to identity and document fraud) does not\nnegate the fact that there was never a ruling stating BP owned our land,\ndespite their purchasing my grandmother's stolen fee simple absolute title\ndeed. BP only ever sought possession. They could not obtain a ruling\nbecause it would have meant discovery, unveiling the archaeological\nsignificance that would have prevented land and housing development.\n\nThis was a coordinated campaign of fraud, stealth, and administrative\nerasure spanning decades, employing force, secrecy, and fraudulent licence.\nBy hook and by crook we were dispossessed of our land. Thatcher—and\npotentially the SAS—make it, at the least, an allodial/eminent domain\nseizure, in which case we should still be due compensation.\n\nI fail to see the proclaimed authority of the other men on my land,\nalleging themselves to be a government and citizens rather than terrorists,\nwho both ostracised and held my family hostage, if legitimacy does not\nexist. You need legitimacy to claim authority.\n\n**Summary of the Fraudulent Dispossession:**\n\n**The Title Theft:** Evidence supports that a \"Title-for-Quarrying\"\nagreement existed with Daniel Thomas of the Bute Estate. We obtained this\nfee simple absolute title lawfully, but it was later secretly and\nfraudulently taken and sold back to Bute / Western Ground Rents / BP\nwithout the knowledge or consent of the rightful owner, Mary Williams.\nParliament even stated on record how criminal Western Ground Rents were.\n\n**Procedural Fraud (The 1974 Licence):** The 1987 Court of Appeal ruling\nwas predicated on a unilateral \"licence letter\" issued by the landlords'\nsolicitors. We reject this ruling. It should be set aside on grounds of\nfraud.\n\n**Identity Erasure:** Throughout all legal proceedings, Mary Williams was\nintentionally misidentified as \"Mrs Buckler.\" This was a calculated tactic\nto strip her of her ancestral \"Williams\" lineage and the superior land\nrights and claim associated with it.\n\n**Exploitation of Mortality:**\n- **Frederick Buckler:** Died before the circumstances of how Mary was\ndispossessed of her title—and how the other parties regained possession\nafter the lawful Daniel Thomas (and/or Anthony Williams) dealings with Bute\nEstate—could be clarified. This is inconsequential, much like Mary's own\ndeath; neither changed her position on the matter, which she did voice,\ndespite what the 1987 ruling falsely alleges.\n- **Mary Williams:** Died during the precise two-week window required to\nrebut the Land Registry's registration of the land in BP's name—a window we\nbelieve was exploited to finalise this theft. At minimum, this is the case;\nit is more likely she was murdered. Her husband before her too. And my\nfather, William Buckler, given the convenient timing of all their\ndeaths—not to mention the unfair dismissal of my father's appeal, the\nblocking of his ECHR request, the theft and demolition of his property and\nour home prior to his death.\n\n**Our Position:**\nThe Williams family (now the Buckler family) has never ceased our claim. We\nmaintain that the land was taken through criminal stealth and that the\ncurrent registered titles are poisoned by this original fraud. We seek full\nreparations for the loss of ancestral wealth, the destruction of the Roman\narchaeological site on the property, and the systematic denial of our right\nto a fair trial.\n\nPlease provide a formal response and update regarding your position on this\nmatter within 14 days. Please also hold to account those taking steps back\ninto the shadows, as this only makes the matter more clandestine and\ntherefore makes me very jumpy as a military warfare professional. I already\nfly in and out as if on another tour of the Middle East, and my family\nremain hostages under terrorists.\n\nI would also ask that Companies House, who have recently tried to\ncriminalise me, give me some space. They gave me three options to submit\nID: a questionnaire with passport and driving licence (which I provided);\nPost Office verification; or Digital ID. I chose the first option. They\nwill not accept it. But I will not be lured to a location of their\nchoosing, nor will I put any of their tracking ID applications on my\ndevices. I do not trust the regime on that island. Until this and another\nunnamed matter of similar scale is resolved, I consider the British\nGovernment a terrorist organisation and do not recognise its authority. My\nfamily there are hostages under said terrorists. And Church View Close,\nLlandough—23 houses—is a terrorist cell/camp on my land.\n\nMarconi was staying with us in Llandough when he invented radio. This too\nwas covered up. Cardiff City will not put a plaque naming Marconi as the\ninventor on the statue of a radio at Cardiff Bay—not even a plaque to\ncommemorate it. Llandough should be a tourist attraction based on this fact\nalone, rather than the occupying terrorist network's cell of 23 houses, as\nI see it.\n\nRegards,\n\n**Sion Buckler Esq.** (Ret'd Sgt)\nOn behalf of and as one of the Heirs and Successors of Mary Williams, Great\nHouse Farm, Llandough, Vale of Glamorgan\n\n---"},{"id":"gm-19e182b1fc720179","subject":"Re: ATB/RE: Formal Notice Follow Up: Resolution of Historical Dispossession and Fraud – Great House Farm, Llandough, Vale of Glamorgan","name":"Re: ATB/RE: Formal Notice Follow Up: Resolution of Historical Dispossession and Fraud – Great House Farm, Llandough, Vale of Glamorgan","date":"2026-05-11T17:52:18Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19e182b1fc720179.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19e179ad0a4405b6-atb-re-formal-notice-follow-up-resolution-of-historical-dispossession-and-fraud-great-house-farm-llandough-vale-of-glamo","scopeTopics":["senedd"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["senedd"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19e179ad0a4405b6","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"senedd","name":"Senedd"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19e182b1fc720179.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Thanks.\n\nFYI that post code is unknown to me.\n[postcode redacted].\n\nMy post code is [postcode redacted].\n([address redacted], Vale of Glamorgan).\n\nBut I appreciate the prompt reply and thank you.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Hywel Buckler\n\nOn Mon, 11 May 2026, 12:14 Griffiths, Eleri,  \nwrote:\n\n> Dear Sion\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for writing to Heledd.

Which led to the tree planting ceremony to affirm this in history.\nFredrick Bucklers transfer of Mrs Williams title to BP and their predecessors without her knowledge or consent isn't legitimate and so has no authority. Him not being able to clarify that transaction due to dying doesn't make it right as Mary Williams maintained her position after his death. She just couldn't prove what she claimed without title. And the adjournment and dismissal of the two hearings in 1974 where she made her case, but without getting the ruling doesn't negate the facts.\nThis was a coordinated campaign of fraud, stealth, and administrative erasure. Over decades.\nSummary of the Fraudulent Dispossession:\n\n  *   The Title Theft: Evidence supports that a \"Title-for-Quarrying\" agreement existed with Daniel Thomas of the Bute Estate. We maintain this title was later secretly and fraudulently sold back to the landlords by Frederick Buckler without the knowledge or consent of the rightful owner, Mary Williams.\n  *   Procedural Fraud (The 1974 License): The 1987 Court of Appeal ruling was predicated on a unilateral \"license letter\" issued by the landlords’ solicitors. We reject this document as a fraudulent instrument of stealth designed to bypass adverse possession rights without Mary Williams’ agreement.\n  *   Identity Erasure: Throughout all legal proceedings, Mary Williams was intentionally misidentified as \"Mrs. Buckler.\" This was a calculated tactic to strip her of her ancestral \"Williams\" lineage and the superior land rights associated with it.\n  *   Exploitation of Mortality:\n\n     *   Frederick Buckler: Died before the truth of the title sale could be brought to light.\n     *   Mary Williams: Died during the precise 2-week window required to rebut the Land Registry’s registration of the land in BP’s name—a window we believe was exploited to finalize a theft.\n     *   William Buckler: His untimely death following the unfair dismissal of his appeal effectively blocked our path to the ECHR.\nOur Position:\nThe Williams family has never ceased its claim. We maintain that the land was taken through criminal stealth and that the current registered titles are \"poisoned\" by this original fraud. We are now seeking full reparations for the loss of ancestral wealth, the destruction of the Roman archaeological site on the property, and the systematic denial of our right to a fair trial.\nPlease provide a formal response and update regarding your position on this matter within 14 days.\nRegards,\nSion Buckler\nOn behalf of and one of the Heirs and Successors of Mary Williams"},{"id":"gm-19e0ed6e9611fda6","subject":"RE: Formal Notice Follow Up: Resolution of Historical Dispossession and Fraud – Great House Farm, Llandough, Vale of Glamorgan","name":"RE: Formal Notice Follow Up: Resolution of Historical Dispossession and Fraud – Great House Farm, Llandough, Vale of Glamorgan","date":"2026-05-09T22:23:41Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19e0ed6e9611fda6.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19e0e8e99ba39f9c-formal-notice-follow-up-resolution-of-historical-dispossession-and-fraud-great-house-farm-llandough-vale-of-glamorgan","scopeTopics":["psow"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["psow"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19e0e8e99ba39f9c","direction":"received","from":"ask","institutions":[{"id":"psow","name":"Public Services Ombudsman for Wales"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19e0ed6e9611fda6.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Mae hon yn neges ddwyieithog.

Much like my grandfather conveniently died too, before  being able to clarify, even to my grandmother Mrs Williams, how her Title ended up in BP's possession. Because until her dying breath she maintained her ownership claim. Despite repeated unlawful attempts over decades to disposition the firm position she maintained about hers and ours undisputed ancestral and superior land claim to the land in question.\nAfter my father's appeal of the BP vs Buckler 1987 ruling was dismissed on grounds of \"heads BP win, tails we lose\" and his home demolished, all money and possessions removed (despite a court injuction ordering nothing be removed) and despite his ECHR request being blocked, and arrest without charge, and hospitalisation and then his convenient death at age 41, our remaining family of mostly women and children, have to this day been too terrified to speak up. According to recently released, supressed ITV news coverage from 1988, bailifs occupying our stolen land and property, even dislocated my mum's shoulder for simply serving them a lawful court injunction.\nAnd without the discovery of fraud this year, (which has taken me two decades and a career in military cyber and electronic warfare and the recent innovations in A.I to discover) we had no redress recourse due to the statute of limitation and time passed, ever had we not all been too traumatised like hostages under terrorists to speak out. This whole thing, even unto this day is scandalous treatment of me and my family. Not withstanding I am a war veteran, who left my military career with honours and was employed until 2024 under the Vale of Glamorgan Council/ Welsh Govenrment. Finished my 22 years in Oath BONAFIDE.\nITV coverage supressed until recent months also says neighbours report it was like an SAS Style Operation to remove us by force in 1988. And the men in the video do look SAS. I have subbmitee a FOI to the MOD.\nAnd Margaret Thatchers administration at the time (you Brit'ish) were evidently helping BP claw assets for the UK Governments exit at the time. Which might explain how 30 police and maybe SAS were used to rip us from our home and land.\nLand registry ultimately had check balances lifted and total free reign, while BPs lawyers commited purgergy in their declarations to them; withholding information from and supplying to the land registry false information.\nAll the while Welsh TV simultaneously interviewed Ghadaffi in Lybia in 1988, who report him accusing Thatcher and the Brit'ish State of being the real terrorists, not him. My oath ended in 2024, I'm also a Welsh National. I have no allegiance to the British State. If it acts like my enemy, its my enemy.\nOther media coverage alleged by UK courts to exist from 1974 seems non existence or suppressed too.\nFraud and proceedural unfairness are ultimately rampant in the case of my families dispossession. Aside from all my family members dying at all the convenient junctures instrumental to change the outcome of our dispossession, I still have major concerns with how the MOJ just took months to respond only to fob me off last week. Or how the MP fobbed me off and will not provide a proper response. Or how CADW alledge this is nothing to do with them despite failing to list the farm house as a grade II so it couldn't be demolished. As per a 1700 signature petition, which was practically the whole town at the time. Or the current councillor for Llandough failing to properly reply.

Which led to the tree planting ceremony to affirm this in history.\nFredrick Bucklers transfer of Mrs Williams title to BP and their predecessors without her knowledge or consent isn't legitimate and so has no authority. Him not being able to clarify that transaction due to dying doesn't make it right as Mary Williams maintained her position after his death. She just couldn't prove what she claimed without title. And the adjournment and dismissal of the two hearings in 1974 where she made her case, but without getting the ruling doesn't negate the facts.\nThis was a coordinated campaign of fraud, stealth, and administrative erasure. Over decades.\nSummary of the Fraudulent Dispossession:\n\n  *   The Title Theft: Evidence supports that a \"Title-for-Quarrying\" agreement existed with Daniel Thomas of the Bute Estate. We maintain this title was later secretly and fraudulently sold back to the landlords by Frederick Buckler without the knowledge or consent of the rightful owner, Mary Williams.\n  *   Procedural Fraud (The 1974 License): The 1987 Court of Appeal ruling was predicated on a unilateral \"license letter\" issued by the landlords’ solicitors. We reject this document as a fraudulent instrument of stealth designed to bypass adverse possession rights without Mary Williams’ agreement.\n  *   Identity Erasure: Throughout all legal proceedings, Mary Williams was intentionally misidentified as \"Mrs. Buckler.\" This was a calculated tactic to strip her of her ancestral \"Williams\" lineage and the superior land rights associated with it.\n  *   Exploitation of Mortality:\n     *   Frederick Buckler: Died before the truth of the title sale could be brought to light.\n     *   Mary Williams: Died during the precise 2-week window required to rebut the Land Registry’s registration of the land in BP’s name—a window we believe was exploited to finalize a theft.\n     *   William Buckler: His untimely death following the unfair dismissal of his appeal effectively blocked our path to the ECHR.\n\nOur Position:\nThe Williams family has never ceased its claim. We maintain that the land was taken through criminal stealth and that the current registered titles are \"poisoned\" by this original fraud. We are now seeking full reparations for the loss of ancestral wealth, the destruction of the Roman archaeological site on the property, and the systematic denial of our right to a fair trial.\nPlease provide a formal response and update regarding your position on this matter within 14 days.\nRegards,\nSion Buckler\nOn behalf of and one of the Heirs and Successors of Mary Williams\n\n--\n\nOmbwdsmon Gwasanaethau Cyhoeddus Cymru/ Public Services Ombudsman for Wales\n\n1 Ffordd yr Hen Gae\n\nPencoed\n\nPen-y-Bont ar Ogwr/ Bridgend/\n\n[postcode redacted]\n\nwww.ombwdsmon-cymru.org.uk  / www.ombudsman.wales \n\nhttps://twitter.com/OmbudsmanWales\n\nHybu’r Gymraeg\n\nGallwch ysgrifennu atom yn Gymraeg a byddwn yn ymateb yn Gymraeg.

Much like my grandfather conveniently\ndied too, before  being able to clarify, even to my grandmother Mrs\nWilliams, how her Title ended up in BP's possession. Because until her\ndying breath she maintained her ownership claim. Despite repeated unlawful\nattempts over decades to disposition the firm position she maintained about\nhers and ours undisputed ancestral and superior land claim to the land in\nquestion.\nAfter my father's appeal of the BP vs Buckler 1987 ruling was dismissed on\ngrounds of \"heads BP win, tails we lose\" and his home demolished, all money\nand possessions removed (despite a court injuction ordering nothing be\nremoved) and despite his ECHR request being blocked, and arrest without\ncharge, and hospitalisation and then his convenient death at age 41, our\nremaining family of mostly women and children, have to this day been too\nterrified to speak up. According to recently released, supressed ITV news\ncoverage from 1988, bailifs occupying our stolen land and property, even\ndislocated my mum's shoulder for simply serving them a lawful court\ninjunction.\nAnd without the discovery of fraud this year, (which has taken me two\ndecades and a career in military cyber and electronic warfare and the\nrecent innovations in A.I to discover) we had no redress recourse due to\nthe statute of limitation and time passed, ever had we not all been too\ntraumatised like hostages under terrorists to speak out. This whole thing,\neven unto this day is scandalous treatment of me and my family. Not\nwithstanding I am a war veteran, who left my military career with honours\nand was employed until 2024 under the Vale of Glamorgan Council/ Welsh\nGovenrment. Finished my 22 years in Oath BONAFIDE.\nITV coverage supressed until recent months also says neighbours report it\nwas like an SAS Style Operation to remove us by force in 1988. And the men\nin the video do look SAS. I have subbmitee a FOI to the MOD.\nAnd Margaret Thatchers administration at the time (you Brit'ish) were\nevidently helping BP claw assets for the UK Governments exit at the time.\nWhich might explain how 30 police and maybe SAS were used to rip us from\nour home and land.\nLand registry ultimately had check balances lifted and total free reign,\nwhile BPs lawyers commited purgergy in their declarations to them;\nwithholding information from and supplying to the land registry false\ninformation.\nAll the while Welsh TV simultaneously interviewed Ghadaffi in Lybia in\n1988, who report him accusing Thatcher and the Brit'ish State of being the\nreal terrorists, not him. My oath ended in 2024, I'm also a Welsh National.\nI have no allegiance to the British State. If it acts like my enemy, its my\nenemy.\nOther media coverage alleged by UK courts to exist from 1974 seems non\nexistence or suppressed too.\nFraud and proceedural unfairness are ultimately rampant in the case of my\nfamilies dispossession. Aside from all my family members dying at all the\nconvenient junctures instrumental to change the outcome of our\ndispossession, I still have major concerns with how the MOJ just took\nmonths to respond only to fob me off last week. Or how the MP fobbed me off\nand will not provide a proper response. Or how CADW alledge this is nothing\nto do with them despite failing to list the farm house as a grade II so it\ncouldn't be demolished. As per a 1700 signature petition, which was\npractically the whole town at the time. Or the current councillor for\nLlandough failing to properly reply. Or the fact the national archives\nreport gaps and missing and supressed records. Not withstanding Marconi was\nstaying with us while inventing radio and the town won't even out a plaque\nup to make that known. Which is more erasure of the history. Like in BPs\nplanning application saying our 800 year old former court house home was\njust an old delapitated building.\nNot withstanding the supression of the 1870 roman soldier we discovered\nwhen changing our floor from stone to timber. Also supressed to hide the\nsites archaeological significants so housing development could be\nunlawfully approved. And BP didn't even seek a ruling on ownership, they\nonly saught possession, most likely so that the discovery and significant\nof the sites archaeological significants could be pretended to not be known\nuntil the excavation of our land in 1994. Which is just more evidence of\nthe blatant conspiracy and fraud.\nThis is all the actions of a crime or terrorist network. To install a\nterrorist cell/ camp. It's worse than just the Brit'ish colonising Wales.\nNot withstanding the child graves secretly moved from the church next door\nduring the exhivation seem to take 10 years to be properly reported on and\neven then their numbers in the report seem to be under represented.\nThe scandal just goes on and on. It's the gift that keeps giving. There's\ncourt mistakes too. The fancy latin words deminish and falsely describe my\nnans land claim and superior ownership. And language used clearly shows a\nbias before a ruling. Language used to imply she is almost imagining her\nancestral superior land claim to discredit her in the carefully selected\nwording used by the judge. In court records that use the false legal\nfiction name fabricated by BP in their license letters document fraud,\ninstead of her actual name. Evidently to shy away from the Williams name\nand its superior inpenitrable and unbreakable land claim. For which we\nremain the heirs and successors.\n1667 we aquired the land and property in a 999 year leasehold. And in the\nearly 1900's obtained the superior paper title, free and clear outright\nequitable ownership, via the deal with Bute Estates quarryman Daniel\nThomas. Which led to the tree planting ceremony to affirm this in history.\nFredrick Bucklers transfer of Mrs Williams title to BP and their\npredecessors without her knowledge or consent isn't legitimate and so has\nno authority.

Even\nunto this day.\n\nMore interestingly than my mum's appearance at the end of the clip, is the\nnews anchor who was my old best friends mum. That same best friend is now\nan executive of press monitoring company Meltwater Media in Cardiff City.\n\nThere's plenty more press coverage of this whole war waged on my family,\nland & home. And it's all going into a Netflix documentry along with the\nhandling of this matter which you still all try to bury and cover up. Like\nthe hundreds of child graves surrounding this case. You are all committing\ncareer and political suicide.\n\nI'm still waiting for you and the MP to respond to this matter.  For months\nnow.\nMoJ won't comment as they say its ongoing. See attached. Which doesn't make\nsense as I've not begun legal proceedings and this hasn't been touched in\ndecades.\nThey also took half a year just to reply.\n\nLand Registry made my query into a complaint and shut it down instantly.\nCadw falsely allege they have nothing to do with it when they were pivotal\nin it. They should have listen it as a grade II.\n\nI'm not rolling up with tanks, but I'm not going away. We need to\nstraighten this all out.\n\nYou know the clause with harassment? I.e. If I have reason to pursue I may\npersist. And so I will persist. But I have no desire to make you feel\nharassed. So please just all do your jobs. And diligently.\n\nMy family are still all terrorised into silence about this, even decades\nlater. It's a hostage/ terrorist situation in my estimation (As a military\nwarfare professional).\n\nI find dealing with my former community and Govenrment 50/50 at the moment.\nWhich is good enough odds for me to refrain from any direct action on this\nmatter. For now.\n\nI'm actually still giving you and the MP the benefit of the doubt you're\nbusy and/or mulling this over still, before taking a position on the\nmatter. But justice delayed is justice denied. Like the MoJ taking half a\nyear to reply only to fob me off. Tick tick.\n\nIt's not just my family being held hostage there, but my people seem\ndemoralised and its no way for them to all live. I already fly in and out\nlike its another military tour of Iraq. I was shot at in Barry and an\nAfghan tried stealing my dog last time I was back.\n\nI will feel my villages warmth one way or another. When it's our ancestral\nhome for centuries. How dare we be ignored, disregarded and exiled. Or shot\nat and shunned. Next time I fly home I want it to feel like home. Not\nanother tour of the middle east where I had to get behind a GPMG in SF role\nfrom a helicopter.\n\nThe situation is untenable. We can't go on like this another decade, with\nyou Brit'ish all on our stolen land without a care in the world, and us all\ndispossessed, butchered and forced out by force, secrecy and fraudulent\nlicense.\n\nYou don't seem to fathom the ongoing harm, injury and loss here. This\ndispossession and disposition, tantamount to a terrorist/ hostage situation\nhas been ongoing almost 4 decades. My families silence from being\nterorrised into silence and the years its taken for me to discover the\nfraud, due to the stealth, secretly and complexity of it, does not put this\nin the past but very much in our faces today.\n\nOur family demand of you and anyone other installed persons, proclaiming\nlegitimate authority of our lands, immediately address this matter. I'm not\nthe kind to hold a gun to your head and demand attention. I'm being polite,\ncourteous and professional here. And patient and understanding. But it\nwould not be sane or reasonable for me to allow you or the MP to cause me\nlet or hiderence.\n\nIn my experience if you won't tackle this in the open I have to presume you\nare going  clandestine and into the shadows and thus pose risk of further\nthreat to me and my family. As the British State.\n\nThere's gaps in records. Court mistakes. There's supressed, redacted,\ncensored media coverage. Procedural unfairness. Fraud. Theft. And the\nsilence and lack of co operation rectifying records and narratives only\ndiminishes your legitimacy and so your authority.\n\nYou wouldn't need to be clandestine and abuse force to try to handle men\nlike me and mine, if you'd just all straighten out this matter. Then you'd\nhave my trust and fieldty.\n\nYou know at the WCIT in Dubai with the help of David Cameron in 2012, it\ntook a few weeks to exit UK from the treaty. Which is something I had to\nbring up with my bank the other day who took twice as long to process a\nrefund after a dispute because of all the beurocracy. Similarly with this\nwe have no barriers to communicate, we have A.I, we have digital systems\nand digital records yet this is being made into a slow, tedious, confusing,\ncumbersom, challenging, obstructive process.\n\nDon't weaponise time. Justice delayed is justice denied. I am accustom to\ntime being abused so that other hybrid warfare war crime avenues can be\nexplored like trying to kidnap and silence me. I know the British State\nacts like a terrorist organisation even by its own definition of one,\nbecause I was one of you terorrists. In an illegal war. On another\nindigenous population. I also spent most of my adult life in exile in latin\namerican now so I can draw all the parallels between the regime on British\nIsles and cartel/ crime syndicates on other banana republics. Ours stink\nand is no different to other islands. So let's not fancy our regime or\nactors in it, as any better or more benevolant or honest than others.\n\nMy postion, proportionate to the situation, seems correct. In that a multi\ngenerational civil war has been waged on my family, home and people, as\nindigenous Welsh Britons, on our ancestral birthland. And having completed\nmy 22 years in oath in 2024, under the employ of the Vale council, I no\nlonger have the restraint of allegiance to the Brit'ish State. I am\nnaturally leaning towards being a counter officer and pro Wales fully\ndecolonising. Bearing in mind this war being waged isn't us ontowards the\nBrit'ish State, but the exact opposite. And there's no requirement on our\npart we participate willingly or make it any easier than is neccesary to\nsoft genocide us. After already dispossesing, displacing, looting,\nbutchering and holding us hostage or exiling us.\n\nIn any case I believe my families standing, title and estate was stolen.\nVia fraud and armed force. Once the cover up and falsified records are\nrectified it will be more apparent why restoration and reperations should\noccur. Because it's already very clear to me. As a cyber and electronic\nmilitary warfare professional and certified and experienced military\ncommander and leader. As well as me being the son and grandson of the man\nand his mum butchered in the process of this fraud and cover up attempt of\nthe crimes relating to this terrorist siege on our land and property of\ncenturies.\n\nWe Britons do not negotiate with terrorists.\nI'm not SAS. I'm who JSHQ Northwood sent to break the SAS out of the Iraq\nprison days before they got executed. I setup the covert drone surveillance\nvia satellies between Iraq and London. Now it's the inverse situation where\nyou're regime is on my lands, have executed my family members, hold my\nfamily hostage and still act like terrorists. Silence does not work in your\nfavour with me. I just presume you are otherwise engaging in clandestine\nwarfare with me.\n\nI'm hoping for the best. I really am.\nPeace, due process, dialouge etc.\n\nThis isn't even our generations fight. It's an inherited scandal and mess,\npassed down to us. The responsibility to rectify this matter is a fudiciary\none. And I'm just the one in my family daring to simply speak about this.\nNo wonder none of the hostages there speak. It just becomes another\nopportunity for you to all reaffirm our people are hostages under\nterrorists.\n\n\nI've seen recently others speaking out and speaking up being separated from\ntheir evidence, charges fabricated and them subjected to interment. I\nmyself already had to have the support of a US Marine officer when attempts\nwere made to frame and extradite and silence me. The defence correspondent\nfor the mail on Sunday was also contracted to destroy my reputation in a\nnationwide campaign before. Which I also managed to stop in time. So I know\nthe lengths that the regime on that island will go to, to cover up crimes\nand fraud instead of remedy.\n\n I doubt a lot of you are even human at this point. Not because of my\nactual military attachment to the underground UFO city in Coresham. But\nbecause a mars attack type alien invasion and occupancy and rule is exactly\nthe vibes I get when I'm back on my motherland. Citizenship seems to now\nmean to be hostages whereby people are gagged, hands tied behind their\nbacks and on their knees. That is the exact situation I see people in, on\nBritish Isles. Any moment due to have our throats slit.\n\nNot for me thank you. I much preferred being behind the machine gun in a\nhelicopter pointing it at the inhumane terrorists treating humans this way.\n\nI spoke to my sister earlier about an article stating that bailiffs stole,\nagainst the explicit injunction instructions, £30,000 of my dads after\nevictim him from his home. In 1988. She told me my family there haven't\never experienced having £30,000 laying around the house in the almost 40\nyears since. If that doesn't tell me they're like Jews of nazi Germany\nunder the occupancy and rule of the tyranny and terrorism there i don't\nknow what does.\n\nSo it is a hostage / terorrist situation so far as I see. We're not\nforgotten about. I've made it very clear for months and I'm just ignored\nand rebuttled and dismissed. So  clearly someone believes we're not all\nequal under God. Or law. That's disappointing.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler Esq (Ret'd Sgt)\nRightful Executor of Manor of Llandough\n\nOn Fri, 14 Nov 2025, 15:24 Carroll, George D (Cllr), <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Hi Sion\n>\n> Thank you for copying me in on this.\n>\n> If you'd like to discuss, please let me know.\n>\n> All the best,\n>\n> George\n> ------------------------------\n> *From:* Sion Buckler <[email redacted]>\n> *Sent:* Friday, November 14, 2025 12:48:36 PM\n> *To:* [email redacted] <[email redacted]\n> >\n> *Subject:* BP vs Buckler\n>\n> You don't often get email from [email redacted].

Unauthorised transfer of title (circa 1965)\nI can evidence that the title to the property was transferred or sold in or\naround 1965 by Frederick Buckler without the knowledge or consent of Mrs\nMary Williams, who maintained a rightful claim to the property. This raises\nthe issue that the disposition may have been made without lawful authority.\n\n2. Death of key party and concealment (1968)\nFrederick Buckler died in 1968. Any knowledge he held regarding the\ncircumstances of the transfer died with him, preventing proper scrutiny or\nchallenge at the time.\n\n3. Inability to prove ownership in court (1974)\nMrs Mary Williams was subsequently unable to prove her claim in court\nproceedings in 1974. This inability must be viewed in the context of the\nprior undisclosed transfer and the absence of key evidence and testimony.\n\n4. Knowledge of defective title by acquiring party\nThere is a credible basis to assert that the acquiring party (BP and/or its\nassociated property entities) knew, or ought reasonably to have known, that\nthe title they acquired was defective. This point is central and I am\ncompiling supporting material demonstrating notice and/or constructive\nknowledge.\n\n5. Registration following death of claimant\nMrs Mary Williams died prior to the land being formally registered in the\nname of the acquiring party. As a result, she was denied any opportunity to\nrebut, challenge, or correct the position before registration was effected.\n\n6. Death of additional disputing party\nMr Buckler also died during the period in which he was engaged in disputing\nthe matter. The cumulative effect is that all primary individuals with\ndirect knowledge were deceased before the issue could be fully and fairly\nresolved.\n\n7. Ongoing family claim\nDespite these events, the claim of the Williams family has never been\nrelinquished. The position remains that the title was wrongfully\ntransferred and subsequently registered on the basis of that defective\ntransfer.\n\n---\n\nRequest for Action\n\nIn light of the above, I respectfully request that:\n\n1. This evidence be formally appended to my existing complaint file.\n2. The register be reviewed in accordance with provisions relating to\nfraud, mistake, and/or rectification.\n3. Consideration be given to whether the registration was obtained through\nor affected by fraud or concealment.\n4. I be informed of the appropriate process for seeking rectification\nand/or indemnity.\n\nI am prepared to provide supporting documents, including historical\nrecords, press reports, and family documentation, upon request or via\nsecure submission.\n\nGiven the seriousness of the matters raised, I would be grateful for\nwritten confirmation that this submission has been received and attached to\nmy complaint, along with an outline of the next steps.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Sun, 19 Apr 2026, 16:29 Sion Buckler, <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n>  Sir or Madam,\n>\n> I write to ask that my complaint regarding title number WA231076 (Land on\n> the North Side of Leckwith Road, Llandough) be escalated to **stage two**\n> of HM Land Registry’s Complaints Procedure. This email sets out why I\n> consider the stage‑one decision to be incorrect, identifies the mistake I\n> say exists in the register, and explains the decision I seek.\n>\n> ### 1. My core contention\n>\n> My core contention is that BP Properties Limited were registered as\n> proprietors on the basis of a factual and legal error regarding my\n> grandmother’s status on the land. My grandmother did not occupy under any\n> genuine licence granted to her and did not relinquish any claim. Instead,\n> any licence relied on by BP related to a different name/person. As her\n> heir, I have succeeded to her claim; I therefore say that registering BP as\n> proprietors was a “mistake in the register” for the purposes of the Land\n> Registration Act 2002.\n>\n> ### 2. Identity mismatch and alleged “licence”\n>\n> Your stage‑one letter records that HM Land Registry relies on the Court of\n> Appeal decision in BP Properties Ltd v Buckler  EWCA Civ 2, and treats my\n> grandmother as having occupied under a licence granted by the documentary\n> title holder, so that her possession was no longer adverse.\n>\n> However, the alleged licence and related correspondence did not use my\n> grandmother’s true legal name. My grandmother was Mrs Williams (supported\n> by her birth, marriage and death certificates), not “Mrs Buckler”. The\n> “licensee” referred to in BP’s narrative and in the 1987 litigation is\n> therefore not the same legal person as my grandmother. There is, in other\n> words, a fundamental mis‑identification or identity fraud at the heart of\n> the story that HM Land Registry and the Court have relied upon.\n>\n> If the licence relied on by BP was addressed to, or granted in respect of,\n> a different named individual, it cannot properly be said that my\n> grandmother’s occupation was under that licence. In that case her\n> occupation remained adverse to BP’s paper title, and any finding that she\n> was a “licensee” rests on a factual premise that is demonstrably wrong.\n>\n> ### 3. Timing – “cart before the horse”\n>\n> Your letter explains that the applications for first registration of\n> WA231076 (and the related title WA240304) were made in 1982–83 and that BP\n> demonstrated a documentary root of title back to 1969/1975 by way of\n> conveyances and a 1971 abstract of title.\n>\n> You also confirm that the Court of Appeal only gave its decision in BP\n> Properties Ltd v Buckler in 1987, holding that an offer by BP to let my\n> grandmother remain created a licence and brought her adverse possession to\n> an end.\n>\n> This highlights a fundamental sequencing problem:\n>\n> - At the date of first registration (1982–83), whether there was a valid\n> licence capable of defeating my grandmother’s adverse possession was a\n> live, unresolved dispute.\n> - BP nevertheless presented themselves as entitled to be registered as\n> proprietors and their solicitors certified on form FR1 that there was no\n> question or doubt affecting the title.\n>\n> - HM Land Registry, relying on that certification, registered BP before\n> any court had determined whether my grandmother’s possession had\n> extinguished BP’s title.\n> - Only in 1987 did the Court of Appeal retrospectively treat the alleged\n> licence as bringing adverse possession to an end, and that decision was\n> itself based on the mis‑identification described above.\n>\n> In simple terms, the effect of the alleged licence (if any) was judicially\n> determined **after** first registration, and on the basis of the wrong\n> person being treated as the “licensee”. BP and their solicitors put the\n> cart before the horse, and HM Land Registry accepted that position.\n>\n> ### 4. The specific “mistake in the register”\n>\n> Your stage‑one response concludes that there is “no evidence of a mistake\n> in the register” and therefore no power to alter the register and no right\n> to indemnity. I say this is incorrect.\n>\n> The mistake I allege is as follows:\n>\n> 1. On the true facts, my grandmother’s occupation of the land was adverse\n> to BP’s documentary title and was not under any valid licence granted to\n> her.\n>\n> 2. Her adverse possession had, or may have, extinguished BP’s title by the\n> time of first registration in 1982–83, meaning BP were not entitled to be\n> registered as proprietors at that time.\n>\n> 3. HM Land Registry nevertheless registered BP as proprietors on the basis\n> of:\n>    - a licence attributed to the wrong person (identity error/fraud), and\n>    - a solicitor’s FR1 certificate stating there was no question or doubt\n> affecting title, despite a long‑running dispute and pending litigation.\n>\n> 4. Subsequent reliance on the 1987 Court of Appeal decision does not cure\n> this, because that decision itself proceeded on the mis‑identification of\n> my grandmother and did not and could not retrospectively validate a licence\n> that never related to her.\n>\n> On that analysis, the register shows BP as proprietors when, in law, my\n> grandmother’s adverse possession should have extinguished BP’s title and\n> given rise to a transmissible proprietary interest which I, as her heir,\n> now claim. The register therefore does not accurately reflect the true\n> legal position and contains a mistake capable of rectification.\n>\n> ### 5. Why the stage‑one reasoning is inadequate\n>\n> In your stage‑one letter you state that:\n>\n> - HM Land Registry has an administrative function and cannot “look behind\n> or challenge decisions of the Court”. [1]\n> - My identity‑fraud claims are “not relevant to the issue of title to the\n> land” because they relate to the dispute heard by the Court.\n>\n> - There is no evidence of negligence or maladministration and no evidence\n> of a mistake in the register.\n>\n> With respect, this reasoning is incomplete:\n>\n> - Once HM Land Registry is presented with clear evidence that the person\n> named as the “licensee” in the litigation and licence documentation is not\n> the same legal person as the occupier (my grandmother), that goes directly\n> to whether the Court of Appeal’s factual premise remains reliable and\n> whether the register is accurate.\n>\n> - Recognising that there is a serious question as to the correctness of\n> the register is not the same as “overturning” the Court of Appeal. HM Land\n> Registry has statutory powers to alter the register where there is a\n> mistake, and it can, where appropriate, refer disputes about rectification\n> to the tribunal or the courts.\n>\n> - To simply say that identity‑fraud concerns are “not relevant to title”\n> is, I say, an error of law and/or an unreasonable application of policy. It\n> disregards new evidence going to the foundation of BP’s claimed entitlement.\n>\n> ### 6. The decision and outcome I seek\n>\n> For stage two, I ask that a Land Registrar (Senior Officer) reconsider the\n> complaint and:\n>\n> 1. Accept that the combination of:\n>    - the identity mismatch (licence/name vs my grandmother’s true legal\n> name), and\n>    - the timing (registration in 1982–83 before the 1987 decision) gives\n> rise to at least a **serious question** as to whether the register is\n> mistaken in showing BP/ Companies thereafter, as proprietors.\n>\n> 2. Treat this as evidence of a potential “mistake in the register” for the\n> purposes of your alteration powers and Schedule 8, rather than as a mere\n> disagreement with the 1987 judgment.\n>\n> 3. Either:\n>\n>    - (a) commence the process of rectification, recognising that my\n> grandmother’s adverse possession may have extinguished BP’s title and that\n> I, as her heir, now have a claim to be registered, or\n>\n>    - (b) formally refer the dispute over the correctness of the register\n> to the appropriate tribunal/court, making clear that HM Land Registry\n> recognises that the identity‑fraud evidence raises a real issue about\n> whether the register is accurate.\n>\n> 4. Confirm that, if it is ultimately determined that the register is\n> mistaken and cannot be rectified without prejudice to third parties, HM\n> Land Registry will treat me as having a potential claim for indemnity under\n> Schedule 8.\n>\n> Please also confirm any further documents you require (for example, copies\n> of the licence, the BP v Buckler pleadings/judgment, and my grandmother’s\n> certificates) so that the stage‑two review can consider the identity\n> evidence in full.\n>\n> Fraud unravels all. The limitation act also had a clause for fraud.\n> Furthermore any limitation begins from discovery of fraud not occurrence of\n> it.\n>\n> The convenient and timely death of my nan after her two obstructed\n> attempts to make her case in 1974, followed by my father's convenient and\n> timely death after his appeal of the 1987 case was dismissed and his ECHR\n> obstructed, along with our forceful removal by 30 police and bailiffs in\n> 1988.

This correspondence\nconstitutes formal pre-action notice of my intention to pursue legal\nremedies arising from the historic proceedings concerning Great House Farm,\nLlandough.\n\nWhile I note your position regarding judicial independence, I do not accept\nthat the issues raised can be dismissed at an administrative level. My\nrepresentations concern alleged fraud, procedural irregularity,\nmisrepresentation, non-disclosure, and structural unfairness which, taken\ntogether, raise serious questions as to whether the proceedings to\ndispossess my disabled, widowed nan, of our land and farm since 1667, as\nindigenous Welsh Britons on iur ancestral birthland, were properly and\nfairly determined. Removing us with 30 police doesn't mean we surrender our\nsuperior land claim. And the fraud I discovered this year is the beginning\nof the Limitation clock so far as I understand, despite the fraud occuring\nalmost 40 years ago. Fraud unravels all. ALL!\n\nThese matters warrant proper consideration, or at minimum clear direction\nto an appropriate forum capable of examining them.\n------------------------------\nA. Grounds for Reparations\n\nThe basis upon which reparations are sought includes:\n\n   - Continuous occupation over approximately 318 years (1667–1988), open,\n   peaceful, and without permission (*nec vi, nec clam, nec precario*),\n   establishing de facto ownership;\n   - No voluntary surrender of rights at any stage, with the claim\n   maintained consistently to the present day;\n   - Uncompensated dispossession, including eviction and demolition without\n   settlement;\n   - Coercive enforcement measures, including forced removal, detention,\n   restraining measures, and demolition under duress;\n   - The rendering of a vulnerable family homeless, including a pregnant\n   mother, young children, and a disabled elderly occupant;\n   - Ongoing intergenerational harm, including psychological, social, and\n   economic consequences;\n   - Destruction of an ancestral home of significant age and character\n   (approximately 800 years);\n   - Loss or disappearance of family records and evidential materials\n   relevant to ownership;\n   - Failure to act upon known archaeological and historical significance,\n   resulting in loss of heritage protection;\n   - Resulting public interest harm through the destruction of a site of\n   historical importance.\n\n------------------------------\nB. Grounds to Set Aside or Reopen the 1987 Ruling 1. Reliance on a disputed\n“licence by silence”\n\nThe judgment relied upon an inferred licence accepted through silence. This\nis unsafe where:\n\n   - correspondence was addressed to a disputed identity (“Mrs Buckler”);\n   - evidence of active rejection (including 1978 news paper article) was\n   not before the court.\n\n2. Identity misrepresentation\n\nMary Williams was treated as “Mrs Buckler,” which:\n\n   - did not reflect her asserted identity;\n   - weakened her position by obscuring lineage-based claims;\n   - artificially linked her to the alleged intent of another party.\n\n3. Misplaced reliance on Frederick Buckler’s intent\n\nAny alleged intention:\n\n   - was personal to him and legally distinct;\n   - did not bind Mary Williams;\n   - was extinguished upon his death in 1965;\n   - and was not supported by fulfilment of tenancy obligations.\n\n4. Procedural irregularities (1974)\n\nThere are serious concerns that:\n\n   - an appeal attempt and request for a stay were disrupted;\n   - licence correspondence was timed and/or presented so as to defeat due\n   process;\n   - a key hearing was effectively neutralised before determination.\n\n5. Non-disclosure of material facts\n\nRelevant matters appear not to have been disclosed, including:\n\n   - evidence of public rejection of the opposing claim;\n   - archaeological and historical significance of the site;\n   - the existence of an ongoing dispute in the context of land\n   registration.\n\n6. Inconsistent treatment of corporate identity\n\n   - In 1987, my grandmother’s rebuttal to BP Pension Trust was disregarded\n   on the basis that BP Pension Trust and BP Properties were separate entities;\n   - In subsequent proceedings, the same entities were treated as\n   effectively the same when dismissing an appeal.\n\nThis inconsistency materially affected the outcome and raises concerns as\nto fairness and legal coherence.\n7. Avoidance of substantive title determination\n\nThe case proceeded within a possession framework rather than determining\nunderlying ownership in an appropriate forum, resulting in the absence of a\ndefinitive adjudication on title.\n8. Possible misrepresentation / constructive fraud\n\nConcerns arise that:\n\n   - licence arrangements were asserted under a disputed identity;\n   - the authority of the issuing entity was unclear;\n   - planning and property descriptions may have mischaracterised the\n   nature of the building.\n\n9. New or previously unavailable evidence\n\nThis includes:\n\n   - missing or unavailable title documentation;\n   - evidence relating to arrangements (including that attributed to Daniel\n   Thomas);\n   - family testimony not previously considered;\n   - subsequent archaeological findings supporting the site’s significance.\n\n------------------------------\nC. Core Position\n\nTaken together, the 1987 outcome is arguable as unsafe due to flawed\nassumptions, missing evidence, and procedural unfairness. The resulting\ndispossession, demolition, and long-term harm give rise to a basis for\nreparative consideration.\n------------------------------\nD. Why the Matter Requires Proper Consideration\n\nThis matter should not be dismissed solely on the basis of judicial\nindependence because:\n\n   - The issues raised concern the *integrity of the process*, not simply\n   disagreement with a result;\n   - Allegations of *misrepresentation, non-disclosure, and procedural\n   irregularity* fall outside ordinary appellate disagreement;\n   - There is a *public interest dimension*, including loss of heritage and\n   potential systemic issues;\n   - The passage of time does not extinguish claims where *fraud or\n   material injustice* is alleged;\n   - Clarification is required as to the appropriate forum capable of\n   examining such matters.\n\n------------------------------\nE. Request for Clarification\n\nBefore commencing proceedings, I request clarification of the following:\n\n   1. Whether any formal mechanism exists within government for referring\n   allegations of procedural irregularity or fraud in historic cases for\n   independent review;\n   2. Whether my correspondence has been referred to any oversight or\n   investigatory body;\n   3. Whether the Ministry maintains any position as to the appropriate\n   route for consideration of such evidence outside of direct court\n   proceedings.\n\n------------------------------\n\nPlease treat this letter as a formal pre-action notice. I would be grateful\nfor a substantive response within 14 days.\n\nNothing in this letter should be taken as a waiver of any rights or\nremedies, all of which are expressly reserved.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\n\nSion Buckler Esq.

This correspondence\nconstitutes formal pre-action notice of my intention to pursue legal\nremedies arising from the historic proceedings concerning Great House Farm,\nLlandough.\n\nWhile I note your position regarding judicial independence, I do not accept\nthat the issues raised can be dismissed at an administrative level. My\nrepresentations concern alleged procedural irregularity, misrepresentation,\nnon-disclosure, and structural unfairness which, taken together, raise\nserious questions as to whether the proceedings were properly and fairly\ndetermined.\n\nThese matters warrant proper consideration, or at minimum clear direction\nto an appropriate forum capable of examining them.\n------------------------------\nA. Grounds for Reparations\n\nThe basis upon which reparations are sought includes:\n\n   - Continuous occupation over approximately 318 years (1667–1988), open,\n   peaceful, and without permission (*nec vi, nec clam, nec precario*),\n   establishing de facto ownership;\n   - No voluntary surrender of rights at any stage, with the claim\n   maintained consistently to the present day;\n   - Uncompensated dispossession, including eviction and demolition without\n   settlement;\n   - Coercive enforcement measures, including forced removal, detention,\n   restraining measures, and demolition under duress;\n   - The rendering of a vulnerable family homeless, including a pregnant\n   mother, young children, and a disabled elderly occupant;\n   - Ongoing intergenerational harm, including psychological, social, and\n   economic consequences;\n   - Destruction of an ancestral home of significant age and character\n   (approximately 800 years);\n   - Loss or disappearance of family records and evidential materials\n   relevant to ownership;\n   - Failure to act upon known archaeological and historical significance,\n   resulting in loss of heritage protection;\n   - Resulting public interest harm through the destruction of a site of\n   historical importance.\n\n------------------------------\nB. Grounds to Set Aside or Reopen the 1987 Ruling1. Reliance on a disputed\n“licence by silence”\n\nThe judgment relied upon an inferred licence accepted through silence. This\nis unsafe where:\n\n   - correspondence was addressed to a disputed identity (“Mrs Buckler”);\n   - evidence of active rejection (including 1978) was not before the court.\n\n2. Identity misrepresentation\n\nMary Williams was treated as “Mrs Buckler,” which:\n\n   - did not reflect her asserted identity;\n   - weakened her position by obscuring lineage-based claims;\n   - artificially linked her to the alleged intent of another party.\n\n3. Misplaced reliance on Frederick Buckler’s intent\n\nAny alleged intention:\n\n   - was personal to him and legally distinct;\n   - did not bind Mary Williams;\n   - was extinguished upon his death in 1965;\n   - and was not supported by fulfilment of tenancy obligations.\n\n4. Procedural irregularities (1974)\n\nThere are serious concerns that:\n\n   - an appeal attempt and request for a stay were disrupted;\n   - licence correspondence was timed and/or presented so as to defeat due\n   process;\n   - a key hearing was effectively neutralised before determination.\n\n5. Non-disclosure of material facts\n\nRelevant matters appear not to have been disclosed, including:\n\n   - evidence of public rejection of the opposing claim;\n   - archaeological and historical significance of the site;\n   - the existence of an ongoing dispute in the context of land\n   registration.\n\n6. Inconsistent treatment of corporate identity\n\n   - In 1987, my grandmother’s rebuttal to BP Pension Trust was disregarded\n   on the basis that BP Pension Trust and BP Properties were separate entities;\n   - In subsequent proceedings, the same entities were treated as\n   effectively the same when dismissing an appeal.\n\nThis inconsistency materially affected the outcome and raises concerns as\nto fairness and legal coherence.\n7.

This email sets out why I\nconsider the stage‑one decision to be incorrect, identifies the mistake I\nsay exists in the register, and explains the decision I seek.\n\n### 1. My core contention\n\nMy core contention is that BP Properties Limited were registered as\nproprietors on the basis of a factual and legal error regarding my\ngrandmother’s status on the land. My grandmother did not occupy under any\ngenuine licence granted to her and did not relinquish any claim. Instead,\nany licence relied on by BP related to a different name/person. As her\nheir, I have succeeded to her claim; I therefore say that registering BP as\nproprietors was a “mistake in the register” for the purposes of the Land\nRegistration Act 2002.\n\n### 2. Identity mismatch and alleged “licence”\n\nYour stage‑one letter records that HM Land Registry relies on the Court of\nAppeal decision in BP Properties Ltd v Buckler  EWCA Civ 2, and treats my\ngrandmother as having occupied under a licence granted by the documentary\ntitle holder, so that her possession was no longer adverse.\n\nHowever, the alleged licence and related correspondence did not use my\ngrandmother’s true legal name. My grandmother was Mrs Williams (supported\nby her birth, marriage and death certificates), not “Mrs Buckler”. The\n“licensee” referred to in BP’s narrative and in the 1987 litigation is\ntherefore not the same legal person as my grandmother. There is, in other\nwords, a fundamental mis‑identification or identity fraud at the heart of\nthe story that HM Land Registry and the Court have relied upon.\n\nIf the licence relied on by BP was addressed to, or granted in respect of,\na different named individual, it cannot properly be said that my\ngrandmother’s occupation was under that licence. In that case her\noccupation remained adverse to BP’s paper title, and any finding that she\nwas a “licensee” rests on a factual premise that is demonstrably wrong.\n\n### 3. Timing – “cart before the horse”\n\nYour letter explains that the applications for first registration of\nWA231076 (and the related title WA240304) were made in 1982–83 and that BP\ndemonstrated a documentary root of title back to 1969/1975 by way of\nconveyances and a 1971 abstract of title.\n\nYou also confirm that the Court of Appeal only gave its decision in BP\nProperties Ltd v Buckler in 1987, holding that an offer by BP to let my\ngrandmother remain created a licence and brought her adverse possession to\nan end.\n\nThis highlights a fundamental sequencing problem:\n\n- At the date of first registration (1982–83), whether there was a valid\nlicence capable of defeating my grandmother’s adverse possession was a\nlive, unresolved dispute.\n- BP nevertheless presented themselves as entitled to be registered as\nproprietors and their solicitors certified on form FR1 that there was no\nquestion or doubt affecting the title.\n\n- HM Land Registry, relying on that certification, registered BP before any\ncourt had determined whether my grandmother’s possession had extinguished\nBP’s title.\n- Only in 1987 did the Court of Appeal retrospectively treat the alleged\nlicence as bringing adverse possession to an end, and that decision was\nitself based on the mis‑identification described above.\n\nIn simple terms, the effect of the alleged licence (if any) was judicially\ndetermined **after** first registration, and on the basis of the wrong\nperson being treated as the “licensee”. BP and their solicitors put the\ncart before the horse, and HM Land Registry accepted that position.\n\n### 4. The specific “mistake in the register”\n\nYour stage‑one response concludes that there is “no evidence of a mistake\nin the register” and therefore no power to alter the register and no right\nto indemnity. I say this is incorrect.\n\nThe mistake I allege is as follows:\n\n1. On the true facts, my grandmother’s occupation of the land was adverse\nto BP’s documentary title and was not under any valid licence granted to\nher.\n\n2. Her adverse possession had, or may have, extinguished BP’s title by the\ntime of first registration in 1982–83, meaning BP were not entitled to be\nregistered as proprietors at that time.\n\n3. HM Land Registry nevertheless registered BP as proprietors on the basis\nof:\n   - a licence attributed to the wrong person (identity error/fraud), and\n   - a solicitor’s FR1 certificate stating there was no question or doubt\naffecting title, despite a long‑running dispute and pending litigation.\n\n4. Subsequent reliance on the 1987 Court of Appeal decision does not cure\nthis, because that decision itself proceeded on the mis‑identification of\nmy grandmother and did not and could not retrospectively validate a licence\nthat never related to her.\n\nOn that analysis, the register shows BP as proprietors when, in law, my\ngrandmother’s adverse possession should have extinguished BP’s title and\ngiven rise to a transmissible proprietary interest which I, as her heir,\nnow claim. The register therefore does not accurately reflect the true\nlegal position and contains a mistake capable of rectification.\n\n### 5. Why the stage‑one reasoning is inadequate\n\nIn your stage‑one letter you state that:\n\n- HM Land Registry has an administrative function and cannot “look behind\nor challenge decisions of the Court”. [1]\n- My identity‑fraud claims are “not relevant to the issue of title to the\nland” because they relate to the dispute heard by the Court.\n\n- There is no evidence of negligence or maladministration and no evidence\nof a mistake in the register.\n\nWith respect, this reasoning is incomplete:\n\n- Once HM Land Registry is presented with clear evidence that the person\nnamed as the “licensee” in the litigation and licence documentation is not\nthe same legal person as the occupier (my grandmother), that goes directly\nto whether the Court of Appeal’s factual premise remains reliable and\nwhether the register is accurate.\n\n- Recognising that there is a serious question as to the correctness of the\nregister is not the same as “overturning” the Court of Appeal. HM Land\nRegistry has statutory powers to alter the register where there is a\nmistake, and it can, where appropriate, refer disputes about rectification\nto the tribunal or the courts.\n\n- To simply say that identity‑fraud concerns are “not relevant to title”\nis, I say, an error of law and/or an unreasonable application of policy. It\ndisregards new evidence going to the foundation of BP’s claimed entitlement.\n\n### 6. The decision and outcome I seek\n\nFor stage two, I ask that a Land Registrar (Senior Officer) reconsider the\ncomplaint and:\n\n1. Accept that the combination of:\n   - the identity mismatch (licence/name vs my grandmother’s true legal\nname), and\n   - the timing (registration in 1982–83 before the 1987 decision) gives\nrise to at least a **serious question** as to whether the register is\nmistaken in showing BP/ Companies thereafter, as proprietors.\n\n2. Treat this as evidence of a potential “mistake in the register” for the\npurposes of your alteration powers and Schedule 8, rather than as a mere\ndisagreement with the 1987 judgment.\n\n3. Either:\n\n   - (a) commence the process of rectification, recognising that my\ngrandmother’s adverse possession may have extinguished BP’s title and that\nI, as her heir, now have a claim to be registered, or\n\n   - (b) formally refer the dispute over the correctness of the register to\nthe appropriate tribunal/court, making clear that HM Land Registry\nrecognises that the identity‑fraud evidence raises a real issue about\nwhether the register is accurate.\n\n4. Confirm that, if it is ultimately determined that the register is\nmistaken and cannot be rectified without prejudice to third parties, HM\nLand Registry will treat me as having a potential claim for indemnity under\nSchedule 8.\n\nPlease also confirm any further documents you require (for example, copies\nof the licence, the BP v Buckler pleadings/judgment, and my grandmother’s\ncertificates) so that the stage‑two review can consider the identity\nevidence in full.\n\nFraud unravels all. The limitation act also had a clause for fraud.\nFurthermore any limitation begins from discovery of fraud not occurrence of\nit.\n\nThe convenient and timely death of my nan after her two obstructed attempts\nto make her case in 1974, followed by my father's convenient and timely\ndeath after his appeal of the 1987 case was dismissed and his ECHR\nobstructed, along with our forceful removal by 30 police and bailiffs in\n1988. And the press reporting us as squatters on our ancestral birthland\nsince 1667, did unlawfully dispossess and disposition us, but it doesn't\nchange the facts.\n\nI see this case as instrumental in Wales' decolonisation. Whereby us\nindigneous Welsh Nationals on our ancestral birthland are victim to a\ncrime. And I am the only one willing to speak up and out as my family of\nmostly women, are all too traumatised by this crime.\n\nIt's evident illicit profits and gains. Identity fraud. And negligence and\nincompetence. I absolutely see the Brit-ish Establishment that now occupy\nand rule through force, stealth/ secrecy and licence as terrorists and us\nyour hostages. As a direct result of this case.\n\nThis is now a hostage terrorist situation on our lands. Well, my family are\nyour hostages, I'm more of a counter officer soldier. So put it right. I\nwill not stand down.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler Esq. (Ret'd Sgt)\nRightful Squire & executor of Manon of Llandough, Vale of Glamorgan, Wales.\n\n\n\n\nOn Sun, 19 Apr 2026, 07:41 Wales.OfficeMail, <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> The document attached is an official requisition, reminder or letter from\n> HM Land Registry.

I note your explanation of HM Land\nRegistry’s administrative role and that you say there is no evidence of a\n“mistake” on the basis of the file you have reviewed.\n\nMy family’s concern, however, is that the first registration was procured\nby misrepresentation and identity fraud by BP, rather than by a simple\nclerical error. The occupier was my grandmother, Mrs Williams, from a\nfamily that had occupied the property and land since at least 1667, not the\nfictitious “Mrs Buckler” BP fabricated in 1974 for their unilateral\nlicence, which was the basis of the BP Properties Ltd v Buckler (1987) case.\nBP also appears to have failed to disclose the long‑running ownership\ndispute. In a 1978 suppressed newspaper article, my grandmother publicly\nasserted her ownership and stated that BP could not prove ownership and had\nnever obtained a court ruling that it was the owner, only possession orders.\n\nHow was BP able to register our land in its name? Did HM Land Registry\nenquire whether there was any dispute over the land, given that the dispute\nappears in court records from 1974? Twice that year BP obstructed my\ngrandmother from making her case that she owned the land: first, the\nhearing was adjourned without a ruling; then the licence letters, using\nidentity fraud, prevented the second hearing from taking place. These were\nopportunities to dispossess a widowed, disabled woman.\nHad HM Land Registry recorded or investigated the existence of this\ndispute, BP’s inability to prove ownership, the archaeological and historic\nsignificance of the site, or sought a copy of my grandmother’s death\ncertificate to see that the name on the licence and narrative were\ncompletely different, we believe BP would not have been able to achieve\nfirst registration on the basis presented. Instead, the use of the wrong\nname (“Mrs Buckler” instead of my married grandmother, Mrs Williams) and\nthe non‑disclosure of the dispute and family claim enabled dispossession\nthrough what we say was identity fraud, which my grandmother was unable to\ncontest as she also died in the same year as registration.\n\nI wish to append to this land parcel our maintained position of dispute. We\nnever surrendered. We were removed by around 30 police officers and\ninformation was suppressed. My family being paralysed by fear and silence\nis not the same as surrender from sound mind and agency.\nFurther background is set out at bpvsbuckler.datro.xyz. My family wants\nnarrative justice as the possibly rightful, dispossessed via fraud,\nexecutors of the Manor of Llandough.\n\nI am aware that HM Land Registry operates a statutory indemnity and redress\nscheme under the Land Registration Act 2002, and that substantial payments\n(including around £8 million in a single year) have been made where people\nsuffer loss because of mistakes or fraud in the register. I therefore wish\nto explore, formally, whether our family’s loss of Ty Mawr Farm, in\ncircumstances where BP’s misrepresentations and the suppression of an\nactive dispute were not reflected on the register, can be considered within\nthat indemnity/redress framework.\n\nIn light of the above, I ask HM Land Registry to state clearly whether you\naccept or deny that:\nBP was able to obtain first registration of Ty Mawr Farm even though there\nwas no court ruling that BP owned the land and BP had been unable to prove\nownership in proceedings, which were confined to possession.\n\nThe land was registered while there was an active and public dispute over\nownership (including my grandmother’s 1978 public assertion of ownership\nand the BP v Buckler litigation), and while the long‑term occupier, my\ngrandmother, had died and was therefore unable to challenge the application.\n\nMy grandmother’s identity and superior family title and land claim\nassociated with that name were mis‑described in the material on which you\nrelied, as BP used “Mrs Buckler” instead of my married grandmother’s actual\nname, Mrs Williams, and that this misdescription and the concealment of the\ndispute were not detected or queried by HM Land Registry before completing\nfirst registration.�\nIf these matters are admitted, I consider they amount to negligence and\nmaladministration by HM Land Registry in allowing BP to register our family\nland in its name in those circumstances. If you do not accept that, please\nexplain precisely which of the above points you dispute and on what basis,\nso that I can take appropriate legal advice and pursue an indemnity/redress\nclaim if available.\nSeparately from that, please also:\nProvide official copies of the 23 May 1975 and 19 November 1982\nconveyances, and of the first registration applications and all supporting\ndocuments for WA231076 and WA240304, so I can obtain specialist advice on\nthe extent of any misrepresentation in what was lodged.\n\nConfirm the correct procedure and forms to make a claim under your\nindemnity/redress scheme in a historic case of alleged fraud and\nmisrepresentation in first registration, and whether you consider this\nmatter potentially falls within that scheme, subject to evidence.\n\nI appreciate that you cannot determine the underlying ownership dispute,\nbut it is important that HM Land Registry notes that the Buckler/Williams\nfamily contests the integrity of the original registration of Ty Mawr Farm\non the basis of identity fraud, non‑disclosure of a live dispute, and the\nabsence of any judicial determination that BP owned the land.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Mon, 23 Mar 2026, 05:56 Wales.OfficeMail, <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> The document attached is an official requisition, reminder or letter from\n> HM Land Registry.

It sets out provisions for keeping a register of title to land and property, and in accordance with Section 66 & 67 of the Land Registration Act, it is a requirement that the Chief Land Registrar makes this information (including any documents held on the register of title) available for public inspection.\n\nHow to access information held on our Registers\n\nThe information you have requested is available to access under our statutory protocol under section 66 & 67 of the Land Registration Act 2002.\n\nSearch for Land and Property\n\nPlease visit our website for further information about our registers:\n\nwww.gov.uk/get-information-about-property-and-land<http://www.gov.uk/get-information-about-property-and-land>\n\nOfficial Copies\n\nFor information about how to apply for official copies of documents held in relation to registered titles, and information about the types of documents available, please refer to practice guide 11:\n\nwww.gov.uk/government/publications/inspection-and-application-for-official-copies/practice-guide-11-inspection-and-application-for-official-copies<http://www.gov.uk/government/publications/inspection-and-application-for-official-copies/practice-guide-11-inspection-and-application-for-official-copies>\n\nIndex of proprietors’ names\n\nUnder rule 11 of the Land Registration Rules 2003 the registrar is required to keep an index of proprietors’ names which shows for each individual register the proprietor of the registered estate and the proprietor of any registered charge together with the title number. When you search the index of proprietors’ names, you will receive a list of titles that are owned by, or mortgaged to, the name that you have searched against.\n\nFor further information about this please refer to practice guide 74:\n\nwww.gov.uk/government/publications/searches-of-the-index-of-proprietors-names/practice-guide-74-searches-of-the-index-of-proprietors-names<http://www.gov.uk/government/publications/searches-of-the-index-of-proprietors-names/practice-guide-74-searches-of-the-index-of-proprietors-names>\n\nSection 21 FOIA exemption: Information accessible to the applicant by other means\n\nWhere information held on the register of title is available for inspection through these statutory routes of access it is exempt from disclosure under section 21(2)(b) of FOIA.\n\nSection 21 states:\n\n“21 Information accessible to applicant by other means.\n\n(1) Information which is reasonably accessible to the applicant otherwise than under section 1 is exempt information.\n\n(2) For the purposes of subsection (1)—\n\n(a) information may be reasonably accessible to the applicant even though it is accessible only on payment, and\n\n(b) information is to be taken to be reasonably accessible to the applicant if it is information which the public authority or any other person is obliged by or under any enactment to communicate (otherwise than by making the information available for inspection) to members of the public on request, whether free of charge or on payment.”\n\nTherefore, we are unable to provide information held on our register through FOIA, as it covered by this exemption.\n\nAdvice and assistance\n\nUnder Section 16 of FOIA and in accordance with the Section 45 FOIA code of practice, we have a duty to provide you with reasonable advice and assistance.\n\nPlease note that the ICO has previously reviewed HM Land Registry’s use of the section 21 exemption.

This is defined in the Land Registration Act 2002.\n\nParagraph 5 of Schedule 2 Part 1 of the Data Protection Act 2018 provides the following exemption from the specified UK GDPR provisions:\n\n“The listed UK GDPR provisions do not apply to personal data consisting of information that the controller is obliged by an enactment to make available to the public, to the extent that the application of those provisions would prevent the controller from complying with that obligation.”\n\nThe Land Registration Act 2002 is the principal legislation governing land registration in England and Wales. It sets out provisions for the keeping of a register of title to land and requirements for its administration by HM Land Registry under a Chief Land Registrar.\n\nThe Chief Land Registrar is required by the Land Registration Act 2002 and to make register information (including any documents held on the register of title) available to the public, therefore the following data protection provisions do not apply:\n\n\n  *   the requirement to provide ‘privacy notices’ to individuals\n  *   the requirement to provide personal data in response to subject access requests\n  *   the requirement to rectification\n  *   the requirement to comply with requests to erasure (right to be ‘forgotten’)\n  *   most of the principles of UK GDPR\n\n\nPlease visit our website for further information about our registers:\n\nwww.gov.uk/get-information-about-property-and-land<https://www.gov.uk/get-information-about-property-and-land>\n\nFor further information in relation to your rights and how HMLR processes personal data please refer to our Personal Information Charter:\n\nwww.gov.uk/government/organisations/land-registry/about/personal-information-charter<http://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/land-registry/about/personal-information-charter>\n\n\n\n\nHM Land Registry’s purpose is to protect your land ownership and provide services and data that underpin an efficient and informed property market.

It\n> arises from an agreement between John Williams (occupier of Great House\n> Farm / Ty Mawr / Cedfin) and Daniel Thomas & Son (Bute Estate quarry\n> operators / limestoners). In essence, the Williams family granted\n> permission for quarrying on part of the farm in return for equitable title\n> / permanent security of tenure once quarrying was complete. Daniel Thomas\n> is said to have formalised his side by a land-swap deed with the Bute\n> Estate (copy formerly held in Cardiff Library, now reported missing along\n> with its index card in 1984).\n>\n> This places the key transaction squarely in the early 20th-century Bute\n> estate rationalisation period, immediately before the 1916 agricultural\n> tenancy to John Williams and the 1915 death of Daniel Thomas (after which\n> Bute attempted eviction, only for the equitable interest to be asserted\n> successfully at the time). Family testimony, supported by the 1876\n> limeworks severance (Glamorgan Archives D153/4-8) and the known industrial\n> quarrying context, points to this narrow window as the origin of the modern\n> title dispute.\n>\n> *Why this matters now* The 1987 Court of Appeal decision (*BP Properties\n> Ltd v Buckler*) turned on the technical effect of 1974 unilateral licence\n> letters addressed to “Mrs Buckler” – a name my grandmother Mary Williams\n> (née Williams) never used in her marriage or death records. By addressing\n> her under this legal fiction, the proceedings bypassed any adjudication of\n> the Williams equitable title that had been recognised as late as 1915. As\n> the principle “fraud unravels all” makes clear, once the foundational\n> misnomer is identified, the entire chain of subsequent possession orders,\n> licences and registration falls to be re-examined. My grandmother and her\n> heirs therefore retain the superior land claim; the 1988 dispossession and\n> demolition of the 800-year-old farmhouse constitute actionable loss for\n> which reparations are now sought.\n>\n> To strengthen the evidential base I have prepared a one-page interactive\n> timeline (hosted at [insert your hosted link here after uploading]) that\n> highlights every event directly relevant to the “Williams Title” period.\n> With your elevated archival access, you will immediately see where to focus\n> searches in the Penrice and Margam or Bute collections (e.g., 1895–1916\n> leases, conveyances, limeworks/quarrying files, and any Daniel Thomas\n> references).\n>\n> I would be most grateful if you could now guide me to the precise\n> sub-series or box references within those collections that cover\n> Llandough manorial transactions in the 1900–1916 window.

Please report any suspicious activity and\n> discrepancies identified.\n>\n>\n>\n> This Notice is issued in pursuit of narrative justice at this stage;\n> formal judicial remedies are expressly reserved. It serves to document our\n> family's side of the story before it is completely erased and history\n> rewritten, ensuring awareness among custodians of land, heritage, heraldry,\n> archaeology, and public records.\n>\n>\n>\n> My elder brother, Rhys Buckler, and I are the sons of the late William\n> Buckler (d. 1991), defendant in the landmark legal case BP Properties Ltd v\n> Buckler (1987), and the grandchildren of the late Mary Williams, whose\n> dispossession, marginalisation, and exclusion from judicial determination\n> remain unresolved matters of record. Mary Williams was repeatedly and\n> materially falsely addressed/mislabeled in legal and administrative records\n> as “Mrs Buckler,” a misidentification that was never judicially tested and\n> which directly affected the handling, scope, and outcome of proceedings.\n> The Williams/Buckler family held claim to the land title, having acquired\n> and occupied Great House Farm continuously since 1667, based on family\n> records, historical evidence, and centuries of resistance to adverse claims.\n>\n>\n>\n> I place on record that I am the first member of my family able to speak\n> publicly and formally on these matters. Other close family members remain\n> too traumatised and intimidated by the historical conduct of these\n> proceedings—including violent eviction, demolition, and loss of\n> livelihood—to engage, despite the continuing consequences of dispossession.\n> That silence must not be misread as consent, acquiescence, or abandonment\n> of right. There is a material distinction between free silence and silence\n> produced by fear, trauma, and coercive experience.\n>\n>\n>\n> The story, as we have pieced it together, reveals a multi-generational\n> pattern of lawfare and siege: from Norman/English conquests in 1100\n> granting lordships over ancient Welsh Christian landscapes, through\n> monastic (1215–1539) and Crown seizures (1539 onward), to industrial\n> encroachments (e.g., 1876 Limeworks severance without consent) and modern\n> corporate possession actions. This culminated in the 1988 demolition of an\n> 800-year-old farmhouse amid police standoffs, leaving the family homeless\n> and the site scarred, now buried under Church View Close. Archaeological\n> vindication came too late—1994 excavations revealed over 1,000 Roman and\n> medieval burials, confirming family warnings (e.g., the 1870 Roman soldier\n> discovery under the living room floor, suppressed by authorities)—yet\n> heritage records celebrate the site while omitting our dispossession.\n>\n>\n>\n> The following assertions of right are now formally placed on record. They\n> have never been lawfully adjudicated or extinguished:\n>\n>\n>\n> 1.      Rhys Buckler may be the rightful Manorial Lord of the Manor of\n> Llandough, by right of primogeniture and continuous hereditary connection\n> arising from our family’s occupation of Great House Farm from 1667 until\n> our narrative, legal, and physical dispossession.\n>\n> 2.      I assert a claim to act as Squire of the Manor of Llandough, as\n> executive representative and guardian of the Buckler–Williams estate and\n> matriarchal lineage, with a mandate to pursue correction of record,\n> restitution, and restorative remedies.\n>\n>\n>\n> These are assertions of right, not settled declarations, placed on record\n> pending proper adjudication—which has been historically obstructed through\n> procedural narrowing, missing documents, and avoidance of full hearings.\n>\n>\n>\n> In 1974, Mary Williams was twice prevented from presenting her case and\n> obtaining a judicial determination of superior ownership, despite claims\n> grounded in long occupation, intent, and possession. The court confined\n> inquiry to animus possidendi (intention to possess) and excluded animus\n> domini (intention to own), reclassifying her from putative owner to mere\n> occupier and foreclosing title adjudication. BP sought possession only, not\n> ownership rulings—a choice unexplained and significant. Proceedings were\n> adjourned or quashed without resolution.\n>\n>\n>\n> This occurred despite evidence of ownership intent, including:\n>\n>\n>\n> *       Centuries-long occupation and resistance (e.g., failed 1938\n> auction due to local support; post-1945 rent disputes).\n>\n> *       Roman-era remains and historical significance (e.g., Guglielmo\n> Marconi's 1897 residence during radio experiments, with family aid erased\n> from records).\n>\n> *       Unformalized deals like the 1895–1905 Daniel Thomas quarrying\n> permission for promised title, undermined by vanished deeds.\n>\n>\n>\n> Judicial ownership examination would have engaged archaeological/heritage\n> protections, incompatible with redevelopment—consequences avoided, raising\n> credibility concerns.\n>\n>\n>\n> Serious unresolved anomalies persist, indicating something is still not\n> right with the record:\n>\n>\n>\n> *       Licence correspondence dated 31 October 1974 surfacing only on 4\n> November, potentially interrupting proceedings to prevent hearings.\n>\n> *       Claims of 1974 benevolent withdrawal under press scrutiny\n> unsupported by verifiable coverage.\n>\n> *       Land registration before Mary Williams’s 1983 death without title\n> determination; disputes possibly lodged/suppressed by Land Registry.\n>\n> *       Inconsistent treatment of BP entities across proceedings to family\n> detriment.\n>\n> *       Procedural barriers preventing effective defense (e.g.,\n> interrupted essential services post-licence; 1960–1987 court rulings\n> dismissing ancestral title as \"notion\" without evidence).\n>\n> *       Knowing bypass of archaeological constraints (e.g., 1978 trenches\n> ignored; no contemporaneous 1970s/1990s press on discoveries amid\n> development).\n>\n> *       Missing key documents (e.g., 1667 conveyance, 1811–1835 Lambert\n> Williams agreements proving status, 1982–84 library deeds vanishing).\n>\n> *       Risks of further erasure: Heritage databases celebrate\n> \"Llandough Roman villa cemetery\" while omitting our saga; modern residents\n> unaware of the \"battleground\" site.\n>\n>\n>\n> These anomalies suggest systemic theft, from colonial English subjugation\n> (e.g., 1543–1770 orbit shifts) to corporate siege, during\n> Wales' cultural/economic transitions.

NRA 581) which submitted to the National of Register of Archives which now has a summarised entry in our on-line catalogue Discovery: Glamorganshire (Cardiff, Llantrisant, etc) and Monmouthshire (Newport, Machen, etc, NRA Stuart 581  The reference to the Manors of Leckwith, Llandough, Cogan Cosmeston and Walterson is M17, pages 113-116 of the catalogue although most of the material predates 1900. This can be viewed at the library reading room at The National Archive by prior appointment. The Bute Estate archives for Glamorgan appear to be held at the National Library of Wales and the Glamorgan Archive Service. The NLW paper catalogue (Ref. NRA 581) broadly mirrors the NLW on-line catalogue: Bute Estate Records, - National Library of Wales Archives and Manuscripts \n\nA possibility worth bearing in mind is that the property, Great House Farm / Ty Mawr / Cedfin may ceased to have been held by copyhold tenure by 1900 and instead may have been held instead by a leasehold tenancy which if this was the case the manorial records will not be relevant to your research. As you mentioned the Bute estate interests were steadily disposed of from c1900 culminating in sale of the estate’s leasehold interest to the Western Ground Rents Company in 1938. This led to the widespread dispersal and possibly destruction of the Bute estate records which makes it particularly challenging to track down and identify individual documents. Furthermore, catalogues often include bundle lists with individual documents concealed by a general description of the contents of the whole bundle.\n\nI regret I cannot be of any further assistance; however I hope your further research proves fruitful.\n\nKind regards\n\n\n[The National Archives logo]\nPhilip Gale | Head of the Collections and Cultural Property Team\nT: 020 3908 X 9193 | W: nationalarchives.gov.uk \nTwitter: @UkNatArchives\nThe National Archives, Kew, Richmond, Surrey [postcode redacted]\n\n\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler  \nSent: 26 February 2026 22:00\nTo: Philip Gale  \nSubject: Re: FW: Manor of Llandough - MDR Entries\n\nEXTERNAL: This email originates from outside of The National Archives.\n\nDear Mr. Gale,\n\nThank you again for your helpful reply and for viewing the original Manorial Documents Committee returns (HMC9/311). I entirely understand that it is difficult to advise further without more specifics, and I am grateful for the steer toward the Penrice and Margam Estate Records and the NLW catalogue.\n\nTo answer your question directly: the document historically referred to within the family as the “Williams Title” (or the equitable interest conveyance that underpinned it) dates to the period c. 1900–1915. It arises from an agreement between John Williams (occupier of Great House Farm / Ty Mawr / Cedfin) and Daniel Thomas & Son (Bute Estate quarry operators / limestoners). In essence, the Williams family granted permission for quarrying on part of the farm in return for equitable title / permanent security of tenure once quarrying was complete. Daniel Thomas is said to have formalised his side by a land-swap deed with the Bute Estate (copy formerly held in Cardiff Library, now reported missing along with its index card in 1984).\n\nThis places the key transaction squarely in the early 20th-century Bute estate rationalisation period, immediately before the 1916 agricultural tenancy to John Williams and the 1915 death of Daniel Thomas (after which Bute attempted eviction, only for the equitable interest to be asserted successfully at the time). Family testimony, supported by the 1876 limeworks severance (Glamorgan Archives D153/4-8) and the known industrial quarrying context, points to this narrow window as the origin of the modern title dispute.\n\nWhy this matters now The 1987 Court of Appeal decision (BP Properties Ltd v Buckler) turned on the technical effect of 1974 unilateral licence letters addressed to “Mrs Buckler” – a name my grandmother Mary Williams (née Williams) never used in her marriage or death records. By addressing her under this legal fiction, the proceedings bypassed any adjudication of the Williams equitable title that had been recognised as late as 1915. As the principle “fraud unravels all” makes clear, once the foundational misnomer is identified, the entire chain of subsequent possession orders, licences and registration falls to be re-examined. My grandmother and her heirs therefore retain the superior land claim; the 1988 dispossession and demolition of the 800-year-old farmhouse constitute actionable loss for which reparations are now sought.\n\nTo strengthen the evidential base I have prepared a one-page interactive timeline (hosted at [insert your hosted link here after uploading]) that highlights every event directly relevant to the “Williams Title” period. With your elevated archival access, you will immediately see where to focus searches in the Penrice and Margam or Bute collections (e.g., 1895–1916 leases, conveyances, limeworks/quarrying files, and any Daniel Thomas references).\n\nI would be most grateful if you could now guide me to the precise sub-series or box references within those collections that cover Llandough manorial transactions in the 1900–1916 window. Any surviving index cards, rental entries, or correspondence mentioning John Williams / Daniel Thomas in connection with Great House Farm would be transformative.\n\nThank you once more for your time and expertise. I look forward to your further assistance.\n\nKind regards\n\nSion Buckler\n\n\nOn Thu, 26 Feb 2026 at 14:44, Philip Gale  > wrote:\nDear Mr Buckler,\n\nI have had an opportunity to view the file of original returns to the Manorial Documents Committee (Ref.

I would like to clarify and narrow my request to ensure there is no misunderstanding regarding the records I am trying to locate.\n\nMy correspondence is not seeking an adjudication of ownership or title — I fully accept the stated remit boundaries of the Manorial Documents Register (MDR). Rather, my enquiry concerns the existence of any archival reference, index card, catalogue entry, or pointer to a document historically known as the “Williams Title”, which was, according to contemporaneous family testimony, at one point:\n\n  1.  Held in the local public library in the first half of the twentieth century; and\n  2.  Indexed in some manner (e.g., an index card or catalogue reference) that persisted even after the original document could not be located.\n\nMy understanding of the MDR — as described on your own website — is that it exists to provide brief descriptions of manorial records and details of their locations:\n\n“An official index of English and Welsh manorial records providing brief descriptions of documents and details of their locations… It does not include title deeds or conveyances, and is not a register of ownership of manorial lordships or rights.”\nhttps://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/manor-search \n\nBased on that description, I would be grateful if you could confirm whether:\n\n  1.  Any catalogue entries, index cards, reference pointers, or archival descriptions relating to the Manor of Llandough or the Williams family title exist in the MDR or related archival catalogues.\n  2.  If so, the reference identifiers and information on how these can be consulted in person or via digitised records.\n\nTo be precise, I am looking for historical references to the index card or listing for the Williams Title — whether held in a library, local record office, or other institutional archive — rather than a claim for ownership judgment itself.\n\nIf such a reference does not currently appear in the MDR, I would greatly appreciate guidance on where any known catalogue cards or entry lists for manorial documents from Glamorgan / Llandough prior to 1950 might now reside (e.g., regional archives, National Archives holdings, or affiliated local repository catalogues).\n\nAnyway I anticipate your forgiveness, if I have erred in writing to you earlier.\n\nThank you again and in advance for your assistance.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler\nOn Wed, 18 Feb 2026 at 14:30, Philip Gale  > wrote:\n\nDear Mr Buckler,\n\n\n\nThank you for your e-mail of 10 February whose contents are noted.

Learn why this is important  \n\n\n\n\n\nEXTERNAL: This email originates from outside of The National Archives.\n\n\n\nFORMAL NOTICE OF RECORD CHALLENGE, ASSERTION OF RIGHT, AND DEMAND FOR ENGAGEMENT\n\n\n\nDear Sir/Madam,\n\n\n\nThis Notice is issued for placement on official record and for reliance. It is not informal correspondence. I urge you not to resort to silence, deflection, or delay, as doing so following receipt of this notice constitutes knowing reliance upon, and maintenance of, records alleged to be materially defective through fraud, concealment, denial of due process, and systemic erasure. Please report any suspicious activity and discrepancies identified.\n\n\n\nThis Notice is issued in pursuit of narrative justice at this stage; formal judicial remedies are expressly reserved. It serves to document our family's side of the story before it is completely erased and history rewritten, ensuring awareness among custodians of land, heritage, heraldry, archaeology, and public records.\n\n\n\nMy elder brother, Rhys Buckler, and I are the sons of the late William Buckler (d. 1991), defendant in the landmark legal case BP Properties Ltd v Buckler (1987), and the grandchildren of the late Mary Williams, whose dispossession, marginalisation, and exclusion from judicial determination remain unresolved matters of record. Mary Williams was repeatedly and materially falsely addressed/mislabeled in legal and administrative records as “Mrs Buckler,” a misidentification that was never judicially tested and which directly affected the handling, scope, and outcome of proceedings. The Williams/Buckler family held claim to the land title, having acquired and occupied Great House Farm continuously since 1667, based on family records, historical evidence, and centuries of resistance to adverse claims.\n\n\n\nI place on record that I am the first member of my family able to speak publicly and formally on these matters. Other close family members remain too traumatised and intimidated by the historical conduct of these proceedings—including violent eviction, demolition, and loss of livelihood—to engage, despite the continuing consequences of dispossession. That silence must not be misread as consent, acquiescence, or abandonment of right. There is a material distinction between free silence and silence produced by fear, trauma, and coercive experience.\n\n\n\nThe story, as we have pieced it together, reveals a multi-generational pattern of lawfare and siege: from Norman/English conquests in 1100 granting lordships over ancient Welsh Christian landscapes, through monastic (1215–1539) and Crown seizures (1539 onward), to industrial encroachments (e.g., 1876 Limeworks severance without consent) and modern corporate possession actions. This culminated in the 1988 demolition of an 800-year-old farmhouse amid police standoffs, leaving the family homeless and the site scarred, now buried under Church View Close. Archaeological vindication came too late—1994 excavations revealed over 1,000 Roman and medieval burials, confirming family warnings (e.g., the 1870 Roman soldier discovery under the living room floor, suppressed by authorities)—yet heritage records celebrate the site while omitting our dispossession.\n\n\n\nThe following assertions of right are now formally placed on record. They have never been lawfully adjudicated or extinguished:\n\n\n\n1.      Rhys Buckler may be the rightful Manorial Lord of the Manor of Llandough, by right of primogeniture and continuous hereditary connection arising from our family’s occupation of Great House Farm from 1667 until our narrative, legal, and physical dispossession.\n\n2.      I assert a claim to act as Squire of the Manor of Llandough, as executive representative and guardian of the Buckler–Williams estate and matriarchal lineage, with a mandate to pursue correction of record, restitution, and restorative remedies.\n\n\n\nThese are assertions of right, not settled declarations, placed on record pending proper adjudication—which has been historically obstructed through procedural narrowing, missing documents, and avoidance of full hearings.\n\n\n\nIn 1974, Mary Williams was twice prevented from presenting her case and obtaining a judicial determination of superior ownership, despite claims grounded in long occupation, intent, and possession. The court confined inquiry to animus possidendi (intention to possess) and excluded animus domini (intention to own), reclassifying her from putative owner to mere occupier and foreclosing title adjudication. BP sought possession only, not ownership rulings—a choice unexplained and significant. Proceedings were adjourned or quashed without resolution.\n\n\n\nThis occurred despite evidence of ownership intent, including:\n\n\n\n*       Centuries-long occupation and resistance (e.g., failed 1938 auction due to local support; post-1945 rent disputes).\n\n*       Roman-era remains and historical significance (e.g., Guglielmo Marconi's 1897 residence during radio experiments, with family aid erased from records).\n\n*       Unformalized deals like the 1895–1905 Daniel Thomas quarrying permission for promised title, undermined by vanished deeds.\n\n\n\nJudicial ownership examination would have engaged archaeological/heritage protections, incompatible with redevelopment—consequences avoided, raising credibility concerns.\n\n\n\nSerious unresolved anomalies persist, indicating something is still not right with the record:\n\n\n\n*       Licence correspondence dated 31 October 1974 surfacing only on 4 November, potentially interrupting proceedings to prevent hearings.\n\n*       Claims of 1974 benevolent withdrawal under press scrutiny unsupported by verifiable coverage.\n\n*       Land registration before Mary Williams’s 1983 death without title determination; disputes possibly lodged/suppressed by Land Registry.\n\n*       Inconsistent treatment of BP entities across proceedings to family detriment.\n\n*       Procedural barriers preventing effective defense (e.g., interrupted essential services post-licence; 1960–1987 court rulings dismissing ancestral title as \"notion\" without evidence).\n\n*       Knowing bypass of archaeological constraints (e.g., 1978 trenches ignored; no contemporaneous 1970s/1990s press on discoveries amid development).\n\n*       Missing key documents (e.g., 1667 conveyance, 1811–1835 Lambert Williams agreements proving status, 1982–84 library deeds vanishing).\n\n*       Risks of further erasure: Heritage databases celebrate \"Llandough Roman villa cemetery\" while omitting our saga; modern residents unaware of the \"battleground\" site.\n\n\n\nThese anomalies suggest systemic theft, from colonial English subjugation (e.g., 1543–1770 orbit shifts) to corporate siege, during Wales' cultural/economic transitions. Authority derived through such means is illegitimate under natural justice, customary Welsh principles, and moral-legal frameworks. The record's distortion secures advantage, but passage of time does not validate it.\n\n\n\nPreliminary assessment indicates cumulative benefits from redevelopment (absent title extinguishment) exceed £100 million, forming a basis for reparations—covering lost land, artifacts, livelihood, and trauma.\n\n\n\nI require relevant public servants, custodians, and office-holders (including Land Registry, heraldry bodies, museums, archaeologists, MPs, historians, and councillors) to cease delay, engage substantively, review/correct/annotate records where defective, and prevent further rewriting of history. Justice delayed is denied, especially with verifiable evidence available.\n\n\n\nThis Notice:\n\n\n\n*       Challenges the record's accuracy, completeness, and legitimacy.\n\n*       Place assertions of title/standing on record pending adjudication.\n\n*       Reserves all rights without prejudice.\n\n*       Puts officials/beneficiaries on notice that silence/reliance may aggravate responsibility.\n\n\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, His Majesty the King was notified yesterday.\n\n\n\nThis serves as an invitation to engage constructively before reliance becomes untenable.\n\n\n\nRegards, Sion Buckler On behalf of the Buckler–Williams family [address redacted], Dinas Powys, Vale of Glamorgan, Wales. https://bpvsbuckler.datro.xyz/  \n\n\n\nPostscript — Disability and Succession (Material Notice): The heir-apparent to the asserted Manorial Lordship is Rhys Buckler’s son, a young man with Down syndrome.

I urge you not to resort to silence,\n> deflection, or delay, as doing so following receipt of this notice\n> constitutes knowing reliance upon, and maintenance of, records alleged to\n> be materially defective through fraud, concealment, denial of due process,\n> and systemic erasure. Please report any suspicious activity and\n> discrepancies identified.\n>\n>\n>\n> This Notice is issued in pursuit of narrative justice at this stage;\n> formal judicial remedies are expressly reserved. It serves to document our\n> family's side of the story before it is completely erased and history\n> rewritten, ensuring awareness among custodians of land, heritage, heraldry,\n> archaeology, and public records.\n>\n>\n>\n> My elder brother, Rhys Buckler, and I are the sons of the late William\n> Buckler (d. 1991), defendant in the landmark legal case BP Properties Ltd v\n> Buckler (1987), and the grandchildren of the late Mary Williams, whose\n> dispossession, marginalisation, and exclusion from judicial determination\n> remain unresolved matters of record. Mary Williams was repeatedly and\n> materially falsely addressed/mislabeled in legal and administrative records\n> as “Mrs Buckler,” a misidentification that was never judicially tested and\n> which directly affected the handling, scope, and outcome of proceedings.\n> The Williams/Buckler family held claim to the land title, having acquired\n> and occupied Great House Farm continuously since 1667, based on family\n> records, historical evidence, and centuries of resistance to adverse claims.\n>\n>\n>\n> I place on record that I am the first member of my family able to speak\n> publicly and formally on these matters. Other close family members remain\n> too traumatised and intimidated by the historical conduct of these\n> proceedings—including violent eviction, demolition, and loss of\n> livelihood—to engage, despite the continuing consequences of dispossession.\n> That silence must not be misread as consent, acquiescence, or abandonment\n> of right. There is a material distinction between free silence and silence\n> produced by fear, trauma, and coercive experience.\n>\n>\n>\n> The story, as we have pieced it together, reveals a multi-generational\n> pattern of lawfare and siege: from Norman/English conquests in 1100\n> granting lordships over ancient Welsh Christian landscapes, through\n> monastic (1215–1539) and Crown seizures (1539 onward), to industrial\n> encroachments (e.g., 1876 Limeworks severance without consent) and modern\n> corporate possession actions. This culminated in the 1988 demolition of an\n> 800-year-old farmhouse amid police standoffs, leaving the family homeless\n> and the site scarred, now buried under Church View Close. Archaeological\n> vindication came too late—1994 excavations revealed over 1,000 Roman and\n> medieval burials, confirming family warnings (e.g., the 1870 Roman soldier\n> discovery under the living room floor, suppressed by authorities)—yet\n> heritage records celebrate the site while omitting our dispossession.\n>\n>\n>\n> The following assertions of right are now formally placed on record. They\n> have never been lawfully adjudicated or extinguished:\n>\n>\n>\n> 1.      Rhys Buckler may be the rightful Manorial Lord of the Manor of\n> Llandough, by right of primogeniture and continuous hereditary connection\n> arising from our family’s occupation of Great House Farm from 1667 until\n> our narrative, legal, and physical dispossession.\n>\n> 2.      I assert a claim to act as Squire of the Manor of Llandough, as\n> executive representative and guardian of the Buckler–Williams estate and\n> matriarchal lineage, with a mandate to pursue correction of record,\n> restitution, and restorative remedies.\n>\n>\n>\n> These are assertions of right, not settled declarations, placed on record\n> pending proper adjudication—which has been historically obstructed through\n> procedural narrowing, missing documents, and avoidance of full hearings.\n>\n>\n>\n> In 1974, Mary Williams was twice prevented from presenting her case and\n> obtaining a judicial determination of superior ownership, despite claims\n> grounded in long occupation, intent, and possession. The court confined\n> inquiry to animus possidendi (intention to possess) and excluded animus\n> domini (intention to own), reclassifying her from putative owner to mere\n> occupier and foreclosing title adjudication. BP sought possession only, not\n> ownership rulings—a choice unexplained and significant. Proceedings were\n> adjourned or quashed without resolution.\n>\n>\n>\n> This occurred despite evidence of ownership intent, including:\n>\n>\n>\n> *       Centuries-long occupation and resistance (e.g., failed 1938\n> auction due to local support; post-1945 rent disputes).\n>\n> *       Roman-era remains and historical significance (e.g., Guglielmo\n> Marconi's 1897 residence during radio experiments, with family aid erased\n> from records).\n>\n> *       Unformalized deals like the 1895–1905 Daniel Thomas quarrying\n> permission for promised title, undermined by vanished deeds.\n>\n>\n>\n> Judicial ownership examination would have engaged archaeological/heritage\n> protections, incompatible with redevelopment—consequences avoided, raising\n> credibility concerns.\n>\n>\n>\n> Serious unresolved anomalies persist, indicating something is still not\n> right with the record:\n>\n>\n>\n> *       Licence correspondence dated 31 October 1974 surfacing only on 4\n> November, potentially interrupting proceedings to prevent hearings.\n>\n> *       Claims of 1974 benevolent withdrawal under press scrutiny\n> unsupported by verifiable coverage.\n>\n> *       Land registration before Mary Williams’s 1983 death without title\n> determination; disputes possibly lodged/suppressed by Land Registry.\n>\n> *       Inconsistent treatment of BP entities across proceedings to family\n> detriment.\n>\n> *       Procedural barriers preventing effective defense (e.g.,\n> interrupted essential services post-licence; 1960–1987 court rulings\n> dismissing ancestral title as \"notion\" without evidence).\n>\n> *       Knowing bypass of archaeological constraints (e.g., 1978 trenches\n> ignored; no contemporaneous 1970s/1990s press on discoveries amid\n> development).\n>\n> *       Missing key documents (e.g., 1667 conveyance, 1811–1835 Lambert\n> Williams agreements proving status, 1982–84 library deeds vanishing).\n>\n> *       Risks of further erasure: Heritage databases celebrate \"Llandough\n> Roman villa cemetery\" while omitting our saga; modern residents unaware of\n> the \"battleground\" site.\n>\n>\n>\n> These anomalies suggest systemic theft, from colonial English subjugation\n> (e.g., 1543–1770 orbit shifts) to corporate siege, during Wales'\n> cultural/economic transitions. Authority derived through such means is\n> illegitimate under natural justice, customary Welsh principles, and\n> moral-legal frameworks. The record's distortion secures advantage, but\n> passage of time does not validate it.\n>\n>\n>\n> Preliminary assessment indicates cumulative benefits from redevelopment\n> (absent title extinguishment) exceed £100 million, forming a basis for\n> reparations—covering lost land, artifacts, livelihood, and trauma.\n>\n>\n>\n> I require relevant public servants, custodians, and office-holders\n> (including Land Registry, heraldry bodies, museums, archaeologists, MPs,\n> historians, and councillors) to cease delay, engage substantively,\n> review/correct/annotate records where defective, and prevent further\n> rewriting of history. Justice delayed is denied, especially with verifiable\n> evidence available.\n>\n>\n>\n> This Notice:\n>\n>\n>\n> *       Challenges the record's accuracy, completeness, and legitimacy.\n>\n> *       Place assertions of title/standing on record pending adjudication.\n>\n> *       Reserves all rights without prejudice.\n>\n> *       Puts officials/beneficiaries on notice that silence/reliance may\n> aggravate responsibility.\n>\n>\n>\n> For the avoidance of doubt, His Majesty the King was notified yesterday.\n>\n>\n>\n> This serves as an invitation to engage constructively before reliance\n> becomes untenable.\n>\n>\n>\n> Regards, Sion Buckler On behalf of the Buckler–Williams family [address redacted],\n> Dinas Powys, Vale of Glamorgan, Wales. https://bpvsbuckler.datro.xyz/ <\n> https://bpvsbuckler.datro.xyz/>\n>\n>\n>\n> Postscript — Disability and Succession (Material Notice): The\n> heir-apparent to the asserted Manorial Lordship is Rhys Buckler’s son, a\n> young man with Down syndrome.

It is not informal correspondence. I urge you not to resort to silence, deflection, or delay, as doing so following receipt of this notice constitutes knowing reliance upon, and maintenance of, records alleged to be materially defective through fraud, concealment, denial of due process, and systemic erasure. Please report any suspicious activity and discrepancies identified.\n\n\n\nThis Notice is issued in pursuit of narrative justice at this stage; formal judicial remedies are expressly reserved. It serves to document our family's side of the story before it is completely erased and history rewritten, ensuring awareness among custodians of land, heritage, heraldry, archaeology, and public records.\n\n\n\nMy elder brother, Rhys Buckler, and I are the sons of the late William Buckler (d. 1991), defendant in the landmark legal case BP Properties Ltd v Buckler (1987), and the grandchildren of the late Mary Williams, whose dispossession, marginalisation, and exclusion from judicial determination remain unresolved matters of record. Mary Williams was repeatedly and materially falsely addressed/mislabeled in legal and administrative records as “Mrs Buckler,” a misidentification that was never judicially tested and which directly affected the handling, scope, and outcome of proceedings. The Williams/Buckler family held claim to the land title, having acquired and occupied Great House Farm continuously since 1667, based on family records, historical evidence, and centuries of resistance to adverse claims.\n\n\n\nI place on record that I am the first member of my family able to speak publicly and formally on these matters. Other close family members remain too traumatised and intimidated by the historical conduct of these proceedings—including violent eviction, demolition, and loss of livelihood—to engage, despite the continuing consequences of dispossession. That silence must not be misread as consent, acquiescence, or abandonment of right. There is a material distinction between free silence and silence produced by fear, trauma, and coercive experience.\n\n\n\nThe story, as we have pieced it together, reveals a multi-generational pattern of lawfare and siege: from Norman/English conquests in 1100 granting lordships over ancient Welsh Christian landscapes, through monastic (1215–1539) and Crown seizures (1539 onward), to industrial encroachments (e.g., 1876 Limeworks severance without consent) and modern corporate possession actions. This culminated in the 1988 demolition of an 800-year-old farmhouse amid police standoffs, leaving the family homeless and the site scarred, now buried under Church View Close. Archaeological vindication came too late—1994 excavations revealed over 1,000 Roman and medieval burials, confirming family warnings (e.g., the 1870 Roman soldier discovery under the living room floor, suppressed by authorities)—yet heritage records celebrate the site while omitting our dispossession.\n\n\n\nThe following assertions of right are now formally placed on record. They have never been lawfully adjudicated or extinguished:\n\n\n\n1.      Rhys Buckler may be the rightful Manorial Lord of the Manor of Llandough, by right of primogeniture and continuous hereditary connection arising from our family’s occupation of Great House Farm from 1667 until our narrative, legal, and physical dispossession.\n\n2.      I assert a claim to act as Squire of the Manor of Llandough, as executive representative and guardian of the Buckler–Williams estate and matriarchal lineage, with a mandate to pursue correction of record, restitution, and restorative remedies.\n\n\n\nThese are assertions of right, not settled declarations, placed on record pending proper adjudication—which has been historically obstructed through procedural narrowing, missing documents, and avoidance of full hearings.\n\n\n\nIn 1974, Mary Williams was twice prevented from presenting her case and obtaining a judicial determination of superior ownership, despite claims grounded in long occupation, intent, and possession. The court confined inquiry to animus possidendi (intention to possess) and excluded animus domini (intention to own), reclassifying her from putative owner to mere occupier and foreclosing title adjudication. BP sought possession only, not ownership rulings—a choice unexplained and significant. Proceedings were adjourned or quashed without resolution.\n\n\n\nThis occurred despite evidence of ownership intent, including:\n\n\n\n*       Centuries-long occupation and resistance (e.g., failed 1938 auction due to local support; post-1945 rent disputes).\n\n*       Roman-era remains and historical significance (e.g., Guglielmo Marconi's 1897 residence during radio experiments, with family aid erased from records).\n\n*       Unformalized deals like the 1895–1905 Daniel Thomas quarrying permission for promised title, undermined by vanished deeds.\n\n\n\nJudicial ownership examination would have engaged archaeological/heritage protections, incompatible with redevelopment—consequences avoided, raising credibility concerns.\n\n\n\nSerious unresolved anomalies persist, indicating something is still not right with the record:\n\n\n\n*       Licence correspondence dated 31 October 1974 surfacing only on 4 November, potentially interrupting proceedings to prevent hearings.\n\n*       Claims of 1974 benevolent withdrawal under press scrutiny unsupported by verifiable coverage.\n\n*       Land registration before Mary Williams’s 1983 death without title determination; disputes possibly lodged/suppressed by Land Registry.\n\n*       Inconsistent treatment of BP entities across proceedings to family detriment.\n\n*       Procedural barriers preventing effective defense (e.g., interrupted essential services post-licence; 1960–1987 court rulings dismissing ancestral title as \"notion\" without evidence).\n\n*       Knowing bypass of archaeological constraints (e.g., 1978 trenches ignored; no contemporaneous 1970s/1990s press on discoveries amid development).\n\n*       Missing key documents (e.g., 1667 conveyance, 1811–1835 Lambert Williams agreements proving status, 1982–84 library deeds vanishing).\n\n*       Risks of further erasure: Heritage databases celebrate \"Llandough Roman villa cemetery\" while omitting our saga; modern residents unaware of the \"battleground\" site.\n\n\n\nThese anomalies suggest systemic theft, from colonial English subjugation (e.g., 1543–1770 orbit shifts) to corporate siege, during Wales' cultural/economic transitions. Authority derived through such means is illegitimate under natural justice, customary Welsh principles, and moral-legal frameworks. The record's distortion secures advantage, but passage of time does not validate it.\n\n\n\nPreliminary assessment indicates cumulative benefits from redevelopment (absent title extinguishment) exceed £100 million, forming a basis for reparations—covering lost land, artifacts, livelihood, and trauma.\n\n\n\nI require relevant public servants, custodians, and office-holders (including Land Registry, heraldry bodies, museums, archaeologists, MPs, historians, and councillors) to cease delay, engage substantively, review/correct/annotate records where defective, and prevent further rewriting of history. Justice delayed is denied, especially with verifiable evidence available.\n\n\n\nThis Notice:\n\n\n\n*       Challenges the record's accuracy, completeness, and legitimacy.\n\n*       Place assertions of title/standing on record pending adjudication.\n\n*       Reserves all rights without prejudice.\n\n*       Puts officials/beneficiaries on notice that silence/reliance may aggravate responsibility.\n\n\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, His Majesty the King was notified yesterday.\n\n\n\nThis serves as an invitation to engage constructively before reliance becomes untenable.\n\n\n\nRegards, Sion Buckler On behalf of the Buckler–Williams family [address redacted], Dinas Powys, Vale of Glamorgan, Wales. https://bpvsbuckler.datro.xyz/ <https://bpvsbuckler.datro.xyz/>\n\n\n\nPostscript — Disability and Succession (Material Notice): The heir-apparent to the asserted Manorial Lordship is Rhys Buckler’s son, a young man with Down syndrome.

However, I must inform you that much of the content in your correspondence falls outside the scope of Cadw’s work.\n\nIn relation to the claim of 'archaeological suppression' involving the discovery of a Roman soldier in full armour in 1888, any such find would typically have been reported in the antiquarian press at either the national or local level. It is possible that records of this nature may be held by local museums. It is worth noting that the first Ancient Monuments Act was passed in 1882, focusing solely on bringing threatened ancient monuments into guardianship. The legal recognition of nationally important archaeology did not come about until the Ancient Monuments Consolidation and Amendment Act of 1913.\n\nUpon reviewing the Cof Cymru database, I found that there are no designated historic assets relevant to this topic. However, Archwilio contains two records that document the involvement of the Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust (GGAT):\n\n1. Great House Farm HER site entry - GGAT03586s\n2. Land at Great House Farm HER event entry - GGATE003872, which includes GGAT's 1990 archaeological assessment report commissioned by BP Properties Ltd.\n\nAny advice or correspondence that Cadw may have provided should be preserved in the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales (RCAHMW) National Monuments Record of Wales (NMRW). I recommend you contact the NMRW to access any relevant documents. Additionally, you may want to reach out to Heneb and the Vale of Glamorgan Local Planning Authority (LPA) to explore what records they might hold concerning this matter.\n\nKind regards,\n\nJenna Arnold\n\n[cid:image001.png@01DCA64B.15168E30]\n\n\nJenna Arnold\nArolygiaeth yr Amgylchedd Hanesyddol / Historic Environment Inspectorate\nLlywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government\nCadw, Rhydycar Business Park | Parc Business Rhydycar, Merthyr Tydfil | Merthyr Tudful [postcode redacted]\n\n\n\n[https://i.ibb.co/CVwfkw2/Cadw-er-lles-pawb.png]<http://www.aelodaethcadw.gwasanaeth.llyw.cymru/>\n[https://i.ibb.co/NxJvcfW/For-us-all-to-keep.png]<http://www.cadwmembership.service.gov.wales/>\n\nYmunwch â Cadw<https://www.aelodaethcadw.gwasanaeth.llyw.cymru/>\nJoin Cadw<https://www.cadwmembership.service.gov.wales/>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom: Sion Buckler <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nSent: 06 February 2026 05:21\nTo: Scheduled Monuments <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>>\nCc: [email redacted]<[email redacted]>; [email redacted]<[email redacted]>; [email redacted]<[email redacted]>\nSubject: Formal Report of Suspected Indigenous Dispossession, Systemic Fraud, and Archaeological Suppression – Great House Farm, Llandough\n\n\nTo whom it may concern,\n\nI am writing to formally report a long-standing and systemic case of what I suspect may be dispossession, fraudulent misrepresentation, and archaeological suppression concerning my family’s ancestral land, Great House Farm (historically Tŷ Mawr/Cedfin), Llandough.\n\nI am the descendant of the Williams/Buckler family, who held de facto possession and indigenous tenure of this land from 1667 until our forced displacement in 1988. I am currently the only member of my family who is not too traumatized to speak of these events. My mother (Mary Williams daughter in law), remains to this day too terrified to speak up about this multi-generational \"lawfare\" campaign waged against us. Our family have not seen justice or received reperations, nor have we sued or reopened this case under limitations act clauses of fraud and consealment. Yet. But this may not be just a grave injustice upon our family, but our nations archeological history and indigenous people on our ancestral birthland. We are Welsh Nationals, Welsh speaking, under Welsh flags. This is some British Colonisation-grade trespass I'm seeing and it's tandamount to a declaration of civil war on me, my family, community and people.\n\nThe core of this report involves the following suspicions I have of concealment and fraud (see attached for my timeline and notes):\n\n  1.  Archaeological Suppression: In 1888, my family discovered a Roman soldier in full armor beneath the living room floorboards. This discovery provided \"actual notice\" of the site's national significance a century before its demolition. We allege this notice was systematically suppressed by corporate and state actors to allow for commercial development.\n  2.  Fraudulent Misrepresentation in Planning: During the 1987 planning process, the 13th-century fortified manor was described by developers as a \"dilapidated utility building\" or \"ruined barn\" to secure a demolition permit that would have otherwise been denied under heritage protection laws.\n  3.  Legal Identity Falsification: In 1974, BP Pension Trust issued a \"unilateral license\" intended to bypass our possessory title. This correspondence was falsely addressed to \"Mrs. Buckler\" to bind my grandmother to her deceased husband’s name and legal status, despite her public rejection of their claim. She used her maiden name Williams and her husband Bucklers' intent to accept license died with him. My nan also alledgedly didn't expressly deny the offer and so accepted through her silence. But she was near enough voiceless from screaming for decades that she will not do deals with any of them. That's a different kind of silence, if any. And to have responded to license to Mrs Buckler would have been identify fraud as she was Mrs Williams. And she did in fact reject BPs license offer and advanced, countless times, but publically. I believe these objections were suppressed too. There's allegedly news coverage from October 30th 1974 but I'm yet to find the evidence. But see attached a 1978 article I unearthed. My nan clearly maintains her position \"It's my home\". [cid:image004.jpg@01DCA64B.15168E30]\n  4.  You'll also see in landmark legal case BP Vs Buckler 1987 the judge says that she might have responded to BP, but to BP Pension Trust, but the claimant was BP Properties Ltd which were two separate companies. But in my dads appeal when he challenges that BP Pension Trust Ltd should have been the claimant the same judge dismissed his appeal citing both BP companies are effectively the same. This is clearly a case of heads BP won, Tails we lost.\n  5.  Missing Evidence: Critical title deeds and Bute Estate records from our families deal with Daniel Thomas, for title after quarrying completed, in exchange for our permission to quarry, also disappeared from the loft of our home and the Cardiff Library according to my families accounts, precisely when they were needed to support our ownership claim in the Court of Appeal. Regardless we should have still remained on grounds we'd been there since 1667, and failing that on grounds of adverse possession.\n  6.  It was evident lawfare to remove us, to get to the burials known about since 1888, BP profited from the land sale, the state and Crown have the exhevated artifacts and my displaced family are left traumatised, cheated and dead. My dad's appeal was dismissed to when it shouldn't have been and his ECHR request blocked, before dying abruptly at age just 41.\n\nThe confirmation in 1994 of a high-status Roman villa and over 1,000 burials on the exact site of our demolished home proves that the \"official narrative\" used to evict us was predicated on the concealment of known facts.\n\nUnder Section 32 of the Limitation Act 1980, the limitation period for action does not begin until such fraud or concealment is discovered. As the heir to this possessory title, I am seeking a formal investigation into the institutional failures that permitted this dispossession and the destruction of a national monument.\n\nI have compiled my account and understanding of these events in timeline order and I'm prepared to provide further testimony and evidence.\n\nGiven the extreme trauma my family has suffered, I request that all correspondence be handled with the gravity this human rights violation deserves.\n\nConsidering the lack of cooperation from my traumatised family. And authorities who maybe complicit and implicated. And possible corruption of records and fraud and consealment, I'm open to the fact my account and understanding may not be perfect. But if even a single other person or group looked into this too, even briefly, I'm sure you'll agree there's merrit to the concerns I'm raising with all of this.\n\nI look forward to your response regarding the appropriate next steps for investigation and restitution.\n\nI do ask for some small sense of urgency in that justice delayed is justice denied. I understand this is ancient news for many, but my family still feel a tremendous sense of disposition and disposition over all of this. Bringing this all up means to re live it.\n\nI will have been 3 or 4 at the time, but I still remember my toys in our house, being bulldozed. And my mum handing us rocks to throw at them, bulldozing down our home. As my dad was held without charges to prevent him defending us and our home. I'd have to visit him in a hospital bed after his heart attack and see him in a coffin shortly afterwards.\n\nI'm 41 years old now. I'm a certified and experienced military commander and leader. I left my military career with honours. I finished 22 years in Oath in 2024, bond afide, my last 2 employed under the Welsh government.\n\nI kindly request but also require of you, that this matter be layed to rest correctly.\n\nMy family never surrendered. Never relinquished claim to that land. We we're in honour in that we weren't there with force, stealth/ secrecy or license. But BP and the British State did use force, stealth/ secrecy and license.\n\nAll things considered I believe I find myself in honour here, and the British Establishment in dishonour. This matter must be escalated. I'm duty bound.\n\n\n\nRegards,\n\n\n\nSion Buckler\n\nSganiwyd y neges hon am bob feirws hysbys wrth iddi adael Llywodraeth Cymru.

Indexed in some manner (e.g., an index card or catalogue reference) that persisted even after the original document could not be located.\n\nMy understanding of the MDR — as described on your own website — is that it exists to provide brief descriptions of manorial records and details of their locations:\n\n“An official index of English and Welsh manorial records providing brief descriptions of documents and details of their locations… It does not include title deeds or conveyances, and is not a register of ownership of manorial lordships or rights.”\nhttps://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/manor-search \n\nBased on that description, I would be grateful if you could confirm whether:\n\n  1.

It is not informal correspondence. I urge you not to resort to silence, deflection, or delay, as doing so following receipt of this notice constitutes knowing reliance upon, and maintenance of, records alleged to be materially defective through fraud, concealment, denial of due process, and systemic erasure. Please report any suspicious activity and discrepancies identified.\n\n\n\nThis Notice is issued in pursuit of narrative justice at this stage; formal judicial remedies are expressly reserved. It serves to document our family's side of the story before it is completely erased and history rewritten, ensuring awareness among custodians of land, heritage, heraldry, archaeology, and public records.\n\n\n\nMy elder brother, Rhys Buckler, and I are the sons of the late William Buckler (d. 1991), defendant in the landmark legal case BP Properties Ltd v Buckler (1987), and the grandchildren of the late Mary Williams, whose dispossession, marginalisation, and exclusion from judicial determination remain unresolved matters of record. Mary Williams was repeatedly and materially falsely addressed/mislabeled in legal and administrative records as “Mrs Buckler,” a misidentification that was never judicially tested and which directly affected the handling, scope, and outcome of proceedings. The Williams/Buckler family held claim to the land title, having acquired and occupied Great House Farm continuously since 1667, based on family records, historical evidence, and centuries of resistance to adverse claims.\n\n\n\nI place on record that I am the first member of my family able to speak publicly and formally on these matters. Other close family members remain too traumatised and intimidated by the historical conduct of these proceedings—including violent eviction, demolition, and loss of livelihood—to engage, despite the continuing consequences of dispossession. That silence must not be misread as consent, acquiescence, or abandonment of right. There is a material distinction between free silence and silence produced by fear, trauma, and coercive experience.\n\n\n\nThe story, as we have pieced it together, reveals a multi-generational pattern of lawfare and siege: from Norman/English conquests in 1100 granting lordships over ancient Welsh Christian landscapes, through monastic (1215–1539) and Crown seizures (1539 onward), to industrial encroachments (e.g., 1876 Limeworks severance without consent) and modern corporate possession actions. This culminated in the 1988 demolition of an 800-year-old farmhouse amid police standoffs, leaving the family homeless and the site scarred, now buried under Church View Close. Archaeological vindication came too late—1994 excavations revealed over 1,000 Roman and medieval burials, confirming family warnings (e.g., the 1870 Roman soldier discovery under the living room floor, suppressed by authorities)—yet heritage records celebrate the site while omitting our dispossession.\n\n\n\nThe following assertions of right are now formally placed on record. They have never been lawfully adjudicated or extinguished:\n\n\n\n1.      Rhys Buckler may be the rightful Manorial Lord of the Manor of Llandough, by right of primogeniture and continuous hereditary connection arising from our family’s occupation of Great House Farm from 1667 until our narrative, legal, and physical dispossession.\n\n2.      I assert a claim to act as Squire of the Manor of Llandough, as executive representative and guardian of the Buckler–Williams estate and matriarchal lineage, with a mandate to pursue correction of record, restitution, and restorative remedies.\n\n\n\nThese are assertions of right, not settled declarations, placed on record pending proper adjudication—which has been historically obstructed through procedural narrowing, missing documents, and avoidance of full hearings.\n\n\n\nIn 1974, Mary Williams was twice prevented from presenting her case and obtaining a judicial determination of superior ownership, despite claims grounded in long occupation, intent, and possession. The court confined inquiry to animus possidendi (intention to possess) and excluded animus domini (intention to own), reclassifying her from putative owner to mere occupier and foreclosing title adjudication. BP sought possession only, not ownership rulings—a choice unexplained and significant. Proceedings were adjourned or quashed without resolution.\n\n\n\nThis occurred despite evidence of ownership intent, including:\n\n\n\n*       Centuries-long occupation and resistance (e.g., failed 1938 auction due to local support; post-1945 rent disputes).\n\n*       Roman-era remains and historical significance (e.g., Guglielmo Marconi's 1897 residence during radio experiments, with family aid erased from records).\n\n*       Unformalized deals like the 1895–1905 Daniel Thomas quarrying permission for promised title, undermined by vanished deeds.\n\n\n\nJudicial ownership examination would have engaged archaeological/heritage protections, incompatible with redevelopment—consequences avoided, raising credibility concerns.\n\n\n\nSerious unresolved anomalies persist, indicating something is still not right with the record:\n\n\n\n*       Licence correspondence dated 31 October 1974 surfacing only on 4 November, potentially interrupting proceedings to prevent hearings.\n\n*       Claims of 1974 benevolent withdrawal under press scrutiny unsupported by verifiable coverage.\n\n*       Land registration before Mary Williams’s 1983 death without title determination; disputes possibly lodged/suppressed by Land Registry.\n\n*       Inconsistent treatment of BP entities across proceedings to family detriment.\n\n*       Procedural barriers preventing effective defense (e.g., interrupted essential services post-licence; 1960–1987 court rulings dismissing ancestral title as \"notion\" without evidence).\n\n*       Knowing bypass of archaeological constraints (e.g., 1978 trenches ignored; no contemporaneous 1970s/1990s press on discoveries amid development).\n\n*       Missing key documents (e.g., 1667 conveyance, 1811–1835 Lambert Williams agreements proving status, 1982–84 library deeds vanishing).\n\n*       Risks of further erasure: Heritage databases celebrate \"Llandough Roman villa cemetery\" while omitting our saga; modern residents unaware of the \"battleground\" site.\n\n\n\nThese anomalies suggest systemic theft, from colonial English subjugation (e.g., 1543–1770 orbit shifts) to corporate siege, during Wales' cultural/economic transitions. Authority derived through such means is illegitimate under natural justice, customary Welsh principles, and moral-legal frameworks. The record's distortion secures advantage, but passage of time does not validate it.\n\n\n\nPreliminary assessment indicates cumulative benefits from redevelopment (absent title extinguishment) exceed £100 million, forming a basis for reparations—covering lost land, artifacts, livelihood, and trauma.\n\n\n\nI require relevant public servants, custodians, and office-holders (including Land Registry, heraldry bodies, museums, archaeologists, MPs, historians, and councillors) to cease delay, engage substantively, review/correct/annotate records where defective, and prevent further rewriting of history. Justice delayed is denied, especially with verifiable evidence available.\n\n\n\nThis Notice:\n\n\n\n*       Challenges the record's accuracy, completeness, and legitimacy.\n\n*       Place assertions of title/standing on record pending adjudication.\n\n*       Reserves all rights without prejudice.\n\n*       Puts officials/beneficiaries on notice that silence/reliance may aggravate responsibility.\n\n\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, His Majesty the King was notified yesterday.\n\n\n\nThis serves as an invitation to engage constructively before reliance becomes untenable.\n\n\n\nRegards, Sion Buckler On behalf of the Buckler–Williams family [address redacted], Dinas Powys, Vale of Glamorgan, Wales. https://bpvsbuckler.datro.xyz/  \n\n\n\nPostscript — Disability and Succession (Material Notice): The heir-apparent to the asserted Manorial Lordship is Rhys Buckler’s son, a young man with Down syndrome.

As such, it is not possible for me to attend the searchroom in person so easy as you're 7,500 miles away, nor to “pop in” to consult records on site. Requiring physical attendance or payment for access is therefore not a practical or equitable option in my circumstances.\n\nMore importantly, my concern is that certain archival descriptions, surveys, and planning-era records may themselves be inaccurate or incomplete as a result of earlier failures of disclosure. Specifically, a Roman burial reportedly discovered at Great House Farm in 1888 appears to have been treated as a “surprise” in later archaeological surveys (1978/1994), and an occupied, c.800-year-old domestic dwelling was repeatedly described in planning documentation as an “old barn” or “utility building.” These characterisations materially affected heritage protection, culminating in demolition in 1988.\n\nIn that context, I am not seeking to pay for copies of records whose accuracy is itself in question, nor to participate financially in processes that may inadvertently perpetuate errors arising from that period. My intention is to place relevant public bodies on notice of a potential issue of public record integrity and heritage governance, not to obtain documents for private interest. I have written to the Senedd calling for a public enquiry too. I've notified the land registry and serious fraud teams too.\n\nI am therefore asking that my correspondence be treated as a formal expression of concern regarding the reliability and completeness of the archival record as it relates to this site, and that this concern be noted accordingly. I would also be grateful if you could advise which department or officer is appropriate for addressing concerns of this nature, where the issue is not access but potential historical misrepresentation within public records.\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, I am not alleging any impropriety on the part of current archive staff. My concern relates to historical processes and decisions, and to ensuring that those matters are properly examined rather than inadvertently reinforced.\n\nThank you for your time and consideration.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler\n\n________________________________\nOn Fri, 6 Feb 2026, 10:44 Glamro / Swyddfa Cofnodion Morgannwg,  > wrote:\nRef: 2026/0633\nDear Sion Buckler,\nThank you for your email received on 5th February 2026.\n\nYou would be welcome to visit us to consult the estate plans DB/E/1-2 in our public searchroom and take your own photographs for free.

[SAESNEG/ ENGLISH] .....................\n\nThanks for your guidance.\n\nI've further refined my proposed petition to broaden its scope, incorporating calls for an inquiry into multiple similar historical cases in Wales. This includes examining the possibility of systemic issues like fraud, suppression of evidence, or ignoring/working around agricultural and heritage protections in adverse possession disputes—potentially to unlawfully or unconstitutionally stop limitation clock on adverse possession—while using the Great House Farm (BP v Buckler 1987) as a key example. The focus remains on devolved matters: Welsh historic environment policy, agricultural safeguards, CADW's role, and reforms to address gaps without revisiting specific court judgments.\n\nAnd yes I have an address, it's [address redacted], Dinas Powys. I am a constituent in the Vale of Glamorgan and I have written to the current MP and councillor Carroll in Llandough, they are aware and I trust they are looking into it.\n\nIf framed this way—emphasizing a possible \"class\" of affected Welsh farms/families and broader policy failures—do you believe it would meet the standards to gain the Committee's attention and proceed to submission/publication?\n\nFraud is never too far in the past as the statute of limitation doesn't apply in such circumstances and furthermore it unravels all according to law. It is also only limited from the date it was discovered and I recently discovered, not from the date of occurrence of the alleged fraud.\n\nNotwithstanding we are still an dispossessed indigenous Welsh family on our ancestral birthland. We are still here.\n\nFailing that, what alternative steps do you recommend (e.g., approaching a Member of the Senedd, Welsh Government departments like CADW, or other channels for raising systemic land/agricultural issues)?\n\nAny advice on strengthening wording or evidence would be appreciated before submission.\n\nThank you—this matter holds significant importance for Welsh cultural, agricultural, and historical integrity.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler [address redacted], Dinas Powys"},{"id":"gm-19c8443dd5799f54","subject":"Please update the status of your request - Freedom of Information Request – Administrative Records for BP Properties Ltd v Buckler (1974)","name":"Please update the status of your request - Freedom of Information Request – Administrative Records for BP Properties Ltd v Buckler (1974)","date":"2026-02-22T07:32:44Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19c8443dd5799f54.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19c8443dd5799f54-please-update-the-status-of-your-request-freedom-of-information-request-administrative-records-for-bp-properties-ltd-v-b","scopeTopics":["moj"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["moj"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19c8443dd5799f54","direction":"received","from":"(name not shown; whatdotheyknow.com)","institutions":[{"id":"moj","name":"Ministry of Justice / HMCTS"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19c8443dd5799f54.json","textStatus":"available","text":"To let everyone know, follow this link and then select the appropriate box.\n\nhttps://www.whatdotheyknow.com/profile/sign_in?r=%2Frequest%2Ffreedom_of_information_request_a_2133%23describe_state_form_1\n\nYour request was called 'Freedom of Information Request – Administrative Records for BP Properties Ltd v Buckler (1974)'.

As such, it is not possible for me to attend the searchroom in person so easy as you're 7,500 miles away, nor to “pop in” to consult records on site. Requiring physical attendance or payment for access is therefore not a practical or equitable option in my circumstances.\n\nMore importantly, my concern is that certain archival descriptions, surveys, and planning-era records may themselves be inaccurate or incomplete as a result of earlier failures of disclosure. Specifically, a Roman burial reportedly discovered at Great House Farm in 1888 appears to have been treated as a “surprise” in later archaeological surveys (1978/1994), and an occupied, c.800-year-old domestic dwelling was repeatedly described in planning documentation as an “old barn” or “utility building.” These characterisations materially affected heritage protection, culminating in demolition in 1988.\n\nIn that context, I am not seeking to pay for copies of records whose accuracy is itself in question, nor to participate financially in processes that may inadvertently perpetuate errors arising from that period. My intention is to place relevant public bodies on notice of a potential issue of public record integrity and heritage governance, not to obtain documents for private interest. I have written to the Senedd calling for a public enquiry too. I've notified the land registry and serious fraud teams too.\n\nI am therefore asking that my correspondence be treated as a formal expression of concern regarding the reliability and completeness of the archival record as it relates to this site, and that this concern be noted accordingly. I would also be grateful if you could advise which department or officer is appropriate for addressing concerns of this nature, where the issue is not access but potential historical misrepresentation within public records.\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, I am not alleging any impropriety on the part of current archive staff. My concern relates to historical processes and decisions, and to ensuring that those matters are properly examined rather than inadvertently reinforced.\n\nThank you for your time and consideration.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler\n\n________________________________\nOn Fri, 6 Feb 2026, 10:44 Glamro / Swyddfa Cofnodion Morgannwg, <[email redacted]<[email redacted]>> wrote:\nRef: 2026/0633\nDear Sion Buckler,\nThank you for your email received on 5th February 2026.\n\nYou would be welcome to visit us to consult the estate plans DB/E/1-2 in our public searchroom and take your own photographs for free.

My concern relates solely to historical processes and record-keeping.\n\nThank you very much for your time and consideration, and I would be grateful for any guidance you can provide.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Wed, 18 Feb 2026 at 11:51, Glamro / Swyddfa Cofnodion Morgannwg  > wrote:\n2026/0672\nDear Sion Buckler.\nThank you for your email, received on 9 February, and for outlining within it your concerns, which we have noted.\nGlamorgan Archives holds only the records that we have been given. We cannot make any assumptions as to whether the content of those records is accurate. And we have a duty to preserve the records which are presented to us as they are presented to us. In addition, Glamorgan Archives has an income target and, as such, we aren’t in a position to provide free copies of material in our care.\nYours sincerely,\nRhian Diggins [cid:image001.jpg@01DCA17E.E0B5BBF0]\nUwch Archifydd / Senior Archivist\nArchifau Morgannwg / Glamorgan Archives\n[phone redacted]\n[email redacted] \nhttps://glamarchives.gov.uk/\nFrom: Sion Buckler  >\nSent: 06 February 2026 17:51\nTo: Glamro / Swyddfa Cofnodion Morgannwg  >\nSubject: Re: Epexio contact us form submission\nEXTERNAL: This email originated from outside Cardiff Council, take care when clicking links.\nALLANOL: Daw'r e-bost hwn o'r tu allan i Gyngor Caerdydd, cymerwch ofal wrth glicio ar ddolenni.\n\nMs Taylor,\n\nThanks for your reply and for outlining the options available to consult the estate plans referenced.\n\nI should clarify my position, as my correspondence is not a routine request for private research access, but part of a wider and serious concern regarding possible historical misdescription, suppression, and/or concealment of material facts relating to Great House Farm, Llandough.\n\nI am currently at the Welsh settlement in Argentina, having been displaced from my ancestral birthplace in Llandough. As such, it is not possible for me to attend the searchroom in person so easy as you're 7,500 miles away, nor to “pop in” to consult records on site. Requiring physical attendance or payment for access is therefore not a practical or equitable option in my circumstances.\n\nMore importantly, my concern is that certain archival descriptions, surveys, and planning-era records may themselves be inaccurate or incomplete as a result of earlier failures of disclosure. Specifically, a Roman burial reportedly discovered at Great House Farm in 1888 appears to have been treated as a “surprise” in later archaeological surveys (1978/1994), and an occupied, c.800-year-old domestic dwelling was repeatedly described in planning documentation as an “old barn” or “utility building.” These characterisations materially affected heritage protection, culminating in demolition in 1988.\n\nIn that context, I am not seeking to pay for copies of records whose accuracy is itself in question, nor to participate financially in processes that may inadvertently perpetuate errors arising from that period. My intention is to place relevant public bodies on notice of a potential issue of public record integrity and heritage governance, not to obtain documents for private interest. I have written to the Senedd calling for a public enquiry too. I've notified the land registry and serious fraud teams too.\n\nI am therefore asking that my correspondence be treated as a formal expression of concern regarding the reliability and completeness of the archival record as it relates to this site, and that this concern be noted accordingly. I would also be grateful if you could advise which department or officer is appropriate for addressing concerns of this nature, where the issue is not access but potential historical misrepresentation within public records.\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, I am not alleging any impropriety on the part of current archive staff. My concern relates to historical processes and decisions, and to ensuring that those matters are properly examined rather than inadvertently reinforced.\n\nThank you for your time and consideration.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler\n\n________________________________\nOn Fri, 6 Feb 2026, 10:44 Glamro / Swyddfa Cofnodion Morgannwg,  > wrote:\nRef: 2026/0633\nDear Sion Buckler,\nThank you for your email received on 5th February 2026.\n\nYou would be welcome to visit us to consult the estate plans DB/E/1-2 in our public searchroom and take your own photographs for free.

It is not informal correspondence. I urge you not to resort to silence, deflection, or delay, as doing so following receipt of this notice constitutes knowing reliance upon, and maintenance of, records alleged to be materially defective through fraud, concealment, denial of due process, and systemic erasure. Please report any suspicious activity and discrepancies identified.\n\nThis Notice is issued in pursuit of narrative justice at this stage; formal judicial remedies are expressly reserved. It serves to document our family's side of the story before it is completely erased and history rewritten, ensuring awareness among custodians of land, heritage, heraldry, archaeology, and public records.\n\nMy elder brother, Rhys Buckler, and I are the sons of the late William Buckler (d. 1991), defendant in the landmark legal case BP Properties Ltd v Buckler (1987), and the grandchildren of the late Mary Williams, whose dispossession, marginalisation, and exclusion from judicial determination remain unresolved matters of record. Mary Williams was repeatedly and materially falsely addressed/mislabeled in legal and administrative records as \"Mrs Buckler,\" a misidentification that was never judicially tested and which directly affected the handling, scope, and outcome of proceedings. The Williams/Buckler family held claim to the land title, having acquired and occupied Great House Farm continuously since 1667, based on family records, historical evidence, and centuries of resistance to adverse claims.\n\nI place on record that I am the first member of my family able to speak publicly and formally on these matters. Other close family members remain too traumatised and intimidated by the historical conduct of these proceedings-including violent eviction, demolition, and loss of livelihood-to engage, despite the continuing consequences of dispossession. That silence must not be misread as consent, acquiescence, or abandonment of right. There is a material distinction between free silence and silence produced by fear, trauma, and coercive experience.\n\nThe story, as we have pieced it together, reveals a multi-generational pattern of lawfare and siege: from Norman/English conquests in 1100 granting lordships over ancient Welsh Christian landscapes, through monastic (1215-1539) and Crown seizures (1539 onward), to industrial encroachments (e.g., 1876 Limeworks severance without consent) and modern corporate possession actions.

Archaeological vindication came too late-1994 excavations revealed over 1,000 Roman and medieval burials, confirming family warnings (e.g., the 1870 Roman soldier discovery under the living room floor, suppressed by authorities)-yet heritage records celebrate the site while omitting our dispossession.\n\nThe following assertions of right are now formally placed on record. They have never been lawfully adjudicated or extinguished:\n\n1.      Rhys Buckler may be the rightful Manorial Lord of the Manor of Llandough, by right of primogeniture and continuous hereditary connection arising from our family's occupation of Great House Farm from 1667 until our narrative, legal, and physical dispossession.\n2.      I assert a claim to act as Squire of the Manor of Llandough, as executive representative and guardian of the Buckler-Williams estate and matriarchal lineage, with a mandate to pursue correction of record, restitution, and restorative remedies.\n\nThese are assertions of right, not settled declarations, placed on record pending proper adjudication-which has been historically obstructed through procedural narrowing, missing documents, and avoidance of full hearings.\n\nIn 1974, Mary Williams was twice prevented from presenting her case and obtaining a judicial determination of superior ownership, despite claims grounded in long occupation, intent, and possession. The court confined inquiry to animus possidendi (intention to possess) and excluded animus domini (intention to own), reclassifying her from putative owner to mere occupier and foreclosing title adjudication. BP sought possession only, not ownership rulings-a choice unexplained and significant. Proceedings were adjourned or quashed without resolution.\n\nThis occurred despite evidence of ownership intent, including:\n\n*       Centuries-long occupation and resistance (e.g., failed 1938 auction due to local support; post-1945 rent disputes).\n*       Roman-era remains and historical significance (e.g., Guglielmo Marconi's 1897 residence during radio experiments, with family aid erased from records).\n*       Unformalized deals like the 1895-1905 Daniel Thomas quarrying permission for promised title, undermined by vanished deeds.\n\nJudicial ownership examination would have engaged archaeological/heritage protections, incompatible with redevelopment-consequences avoided, raising credibility concerns.\n\nSerious unresolved anomalies persist, indicating something is still not right with the record:\n\n*       Licence correspondence dated 31 October 1974 surfacing only on 4 November, potentially interrupting proceedings to prevent hearings.\n*       Claims of 1974 benevolent withdrawal under press scrutiny unsupported by verifiable coverage.\n*       Land registration before Mary Williams's 1983 death without title determination; disputes possibly lodged/suppressed by Land Registry.\n*       Inconsistent treatment of BP entities across proceedings to family detriment.\n*       Procedural barriers preventing effective defense (e.g., interrupted essential services post-licence; 1960-1987 court rulings dismissing ancestral title as \"notion\" without evidence).\n*       Knowing bypass of archaeological constraints (e.g., 1978 trenches ignored; no contemporaneous 1970s/1990s press on discoveries amid development).\n*       Missing key documents (e.g., 1667 conveyance, 1811-1835 Lambert Williams agreements proving status, 1982-84 library deeds vanishing).\n*       Risks of further erasure: Heritage databases celebrate \"Llandough Roman villa cemetery\" while omitting our saga; modern residents unaware of the \"battleground\" site.\n\nThese anomalies suggest systemic theft, from colonial English subjugation (e.g., 1543-1770 orbit shifts) to corporate siege, during Wales' cultural/economic transitions. Authority derived through such means is illegitimate under natural justice, customary Welsh principles, and moral-legal frameworks. The record's distortion secures advantage, but passage of time does not validate it.\n\nPreliminary assessment indicates cumulative benefits from redevelopment (absent title extinguishment) exceed £100 million, forming a basis for reparations-covering lost land, artifacts, livelihood, and trauma.\n\nI require relevant public servants, custodians, and office-holders (including Land Registry, heraldry bodies, museums, archaeologists, MPs, historians, and councillors) to cease delay, engage substantively, review/correct/annotate records where defective, and prevent further rewriting of history. Justice delayed is denied, especially with verifiable evidence available.\n\nThis Notice:\n\n*       Challenges the record's accuracy, completeness, and legitimacy.\n*       Place assertions of title/standing on record pending adjudication.\n*       Reserves all rights without prejudice.\n*       Puts officials/beneficiaries on notice that silence/reliance may aggravate responsibility.\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, His Majesty the King was notified yesterday.\n\nThis serves as an invitation to engage constructively before reliance becomes untenable.\n\nRegards, Sion Buckler On behalf of the Buckler-Williams family [address redacted], Dinas Powys, Vale of Glamorgan, Wales. https://bpvsbuckler.datro.xyz/ <https://bpvsbuckler.datro.xyz/>\n\nPostscript - Disability and Succession (Material Notice): The heir-apparent to the asserted Manorial Lordship is Rhys Buckler's son, a young man with Down syndrome.

[SAESNEG/ ENGLISH] .....................\n\nThanks for your guidance.\n\nI've further refined my proposed petition to broaden its scope,\nincorporating calls for an inquiry into multiple similar historical cases\nin Wales. This includes examining the possibility of systemic issues like\nfraud, suppression of evidence, or ignoring/working around agricultural and\nheritage protections in adverse possession disputes—potentially to\nunlawfully or unconstitutionally stop limitation clock on adverse\npossession—while using the Great House Farm (BP v Buckler 1987) as a key\nexample. The focus remains on devolved matters: Welsh historic environment\npolicy, agricultural safeguards, CADW's role, and reforms to address gaps\nwithout revisiting specific court judgments.\n\nAnd yes I have an address, it's [address redacted], Dinas Powys. I am a constituent\nin the Vale of Glamorgan and I have written to the current MP and\ncouncillor Carroll in Llandough, they are aware and I trust they are\nlooking into it.\n\nIf framed this way—emphasizing a possible \"class\" of affected Welsh\nfarms/families and broader policy failures—do you believe it would meet the\nstandards to gain the Committee's attention and proceed to\nsubmission/publication?\n\nFraud is never too far in the past as the statute of limitation doesn't\napply in such circumstances and furthermore it unravels all according to\nlaw. It is also only limited from the date it was discovered and I recently\ndiscovered, not from the date of occurrence of the alleged fraud.\n\nNotwithstanding we are still an dispossessed indigenous Welsh family on our\nancestral birthland. We are still here.\n\nFailing that, what alternative steps do you recommend (e.g., approaching a\nMember of the Senedd, Welsh Government departments like CADW, or other\nchannels for raising systemic land/agricultural issues)?\n\nAny advice on strengthening wording or evidence would be appreciated before\nsubmission.\n\nThank you—this matter holds significant importance for Welsh cultural,\nagricultural, and historical integrity.\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler [address redacted], Dinas Powys\n\n>"},{"id":"gm-19c6b8268892605e","subject":"RE: Cais am Ddeiseb ac Ymchwiliad Cyhoeddus: Achos Buckler v BP (1987) a Dinistr Great House Farm, Llandough / Formal Request for Inquiry: The Great House Farm Dispossession (BP vs Buckler)","name":"RE: Cais am Ddeiseb ac Ymchwiliad Cyhoeddus: Achos Buckler v BP (1987) a Dinistr Great House Farm, Llandough / Formal Request for Inquiry: The Great House Farm Dispossession (BP vs Buckler)","date":"2026-02-17T12:10:25Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19c6b8268892605e.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19c275c24363311c-cais-am-ddeiseb-ac-ymchwiliad-cyhoeddus-achos-buckler-v-bp-1987-a-dinistr-great-house-farm-llandough-formal-request-for-","scopeTopics":["senedd"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["senedd"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19c275c24363311c","direction":"received","from":"Petitions Committee | Y Pwyllgor Deisebau","institutions":[{"id":"senedd","name":"Senedd"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19c6b8268892605e.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Dear Sion Buckler,\n\nThank you for your message.

Fodd bynnag, yn y dyfarniad yr oedd yn ei herio, nododd y barnwr nad oedd ymatebion fy nain i BP Pension Trust Ltd yn cyfrif gan mai BP Properties Ltd oedd yr hawlydd, ac mai cwmnïau ar wahân oeddent. Yn ymarferol, roedd hyn yn arwain at sefyllfa “pen y cwmni’n ennill, cynffon y teulu’n colli”.\n\nYn sgil hyn, cafodd fy nhad ei dynnu o’i wely ysbyty, ei garcharu heb gyhuddiad, a gosodwyd gorchymyn atal arno i’w atal rhag meddiannu ac amddiffyn ein fferm 800 oed rhag cael ei dymchwel. Cafodd ei gais i’r Llys Hawliau Dynol Ewropeaidd ei rwystro cyn iddo farw yn 1991, yn ddim ond 41 oed.\n\nAr y sail hon, rwy’n gofyn yn ffurfiol am Ddeiseb i sefydlu Ymchwiliad Cyhoeddus i’r achos hwn, fel mater o ddwyn tir hanesyddol ac o dorri hawliau dynol yng Nghymru.\n\nRwy’n weithiwr proffesiynol ym maes seiber a rhyfela electronig milwrol. Mae technolegau AI pwerus bellach ar gael i bob un ohonom, ac nid oes unrhyw reswm technegol pam na ellid archwilio’r mater hwn yn llawn ac yn drylwyr. Mae’r hyn a ddigwyddodd i’m teulu yn ymddangos fel anghyfiawnder dwys, aml-genhedlaethol, ac yn debyg i ffurf ar “lawfare”, lle y trinwyd fy nheulu fel llafur di-dâl i gynnal ased tir hyd nes yr oedd yn gyfleus i’w ariannu. Mae’n arwyddocaol bod bron pob cam yn ein herbyn wedi digwydd ar yr eiliad olaf posibl.\n\nCeir honiadau bod sylw sylweddol yn y wasg yn 1974 o blaid fy nain a’n teulu, ynghyd â deiseb o tua 1,700 o bobl yn ceisio atal dymchwel y fferm. Ymhellach, mae’n ymddangos bod CADW wedi methu ag ymyrryd lle dylai’r safle fod wedi cael statws Adeilad Rhestredig Gradd II.\n\nNid wyf yn sicr a gofnodwyd erioed yn briodol yn y Gofrestrfa Tir fod y tir — a gofrestrwyd gan BP yn 1982 — dan anghydfod. Yn fy nealltwriaeth i, cafodd ei drin fel pe na bai mewn anghydfod o gwbl. Nid oes unrhyw lys wedi penderfynu’n derfynol mai BP oedd perchnogion cyfreithiol y tir; cafodd hynny ei honni yn hytrach na’i brofi.\n\nMae hefyd fater pwysig o hanes diwylliannol. Arhosodd Marconi gyda’n teulu yn y fferm wrth iddo ddatblygu radio. Mae cynghorwyr a’r plwyf yn Llandough yn gwrthod cydnabod hyn. Rwy’n deall bod Marconi yn cael ei ystyried yn wleidyddol eithafol ar y dde, ac, fel y gwelir yn achos y cerflun radio ym Mae Caerdydd, mae ei rôl hanesyddol yn cael ei hailysgrifennu. Mae’n rhesymol tybio bod ein teulu wedi cael ei ddal mewn ymgyrch wleidyddol ehangach o’r chwith yn erbyn y dde, ac mai am roi llety i Marconi y bu i ni wynebu canlyniadau canrif o hyd — problemau nad oedd yn bodoli yn y tair canrif flaenorol yr oeddem wedi byw ar y fferm.\n\nRoedd mam Marconi hefyd yn Jamerson o gwmni wisgi Gwyddelig Jameson. Rwy’n gofyn i chi gynnal eich ymchwil eich hun, gwneud eich ymholiadau eich hun, a dod i’ch casgliadau eich hun — ond yn anad dim, peidiwch â chaniatáu i hanes gael ei ailysgrifennu yma.\n\nMae fy nheulu bellach yn archwilio opsiynau ar gyfer siarad cyhoeddus, hawliau stori, a dogfennaeth. Yn nhermau cysylltiadau teuluol: fy nhaid oedd Ray Smith o Dempsey and Makepeace; mae fy modryb yn Shan Cothi; a dechreuodd fy ewythr y band Tigertailz.\n\nRwy’n disgrifio’r sefyllfa hon fel gwarthus. Mae fy nheulu’n mynnu cyfiawnder am gael ein dadleoli a’n dwyn o’n tir a’n heiddo gan y Sefydliad Prydeinig a BP, gyda phrin unrhyw amddiffyniad dan y gyfraith. Rydym yn deulu Cymreig brodorol, Cymraeg eu hiaith, wedi byw yng Nghaerdydd, Bro Morgannwg, a’r fferm yn Llandough ers cannoedd o flynyddoedd.\n\nO’r hyn y gallaf ei gasglu, ceir dwsinau o achosion posibl o dwyll a chuddio gwybodaeth, sy’n golygu nad yw statud cyfyngiadau yn berthnasol o reidrwydd. I’r rhai sy’n cefnogi dad-drefedigaethu Cymru ac annibyniaeth, prin y ceir enghraifft gliriach na BP v Buckler (1987) o’r hyn a ddigwyddodd i deulu ffermio Cymreig wrth herio’r Wladwriaeth Brydeinig a chorfforaeth fawr. Nid yw eraill wedi codi’r mater hwn, yn bennaf oherwydd trawma cenhedlaethol.\n\nRwyf wedi profi fy hun. Gadewais fy ngyrfa filwrol gydag anrhydedd, gan gwblhau fy llw 22 mlynedd. Cefais fy nghyflogi’n bona fide gan Gyngor Bro Morgannwg a Llywodraeth Cymru hyd at 2024. Gwasanaethais mewn rhyfeloedd yn y Dwyrain Canol. Fodd bynnag, nid yw’r anghyfiawnder fferm yn fater unigol.\n\nYn 2013, cafodd fy mab 36 diwrnod oed ei gipio, ac nid wyf erioed wedi ei weld ers hynny. Cafodd tŷ ei ddwyn oddi arnaf (40 Lombard Street, Y Barri). Yn 2023, cefais fy ngadael i gysgu mewn pabell tra roedd bron i 100 o Afghanistaniaid yn cael eu lletya’n dawel wrth ymyl ein pentref o 11 tŷ, tra roedd yn rhaid imi aros yno i ofalu am fy nain gan na allai gofalwyr ei chyrraedd.\n\nO ganlyniad, rwyf bellach yn byw yn yr hyn a elwir yn Setliad Cymreig yn yr Ariannin. Rwyf wedi fy nisodli ac wedi fy dadleoli i’r eithaf. Serch hynny, rwy’n ddiolchgar fy mod wedi goroesi gyda’m rhyddid, fy mywyd, a’m henw da yn gymharol gyfan. Serch hynny, hoffwn fod wedi aros yng Nghymru, fel Cymro, gyda safon a chynhaliaeth bywyd deg.\n\nMae fy ngwraig a minnau’n amharod i ganiatáu i’n merch hyd yn oed gamu ar Ynysoedd Prydain o ystyried yr hyn a glywn sy’n digwydd yno. Yn 2024, allforiais hyd yn oed fy nghi o Abertawe i’n heiddo yn y Caribî ar ôl i unigolyn Afghanistan fod yng ngardd fy nheulu yng Nghymru, gan geisio ei ddwyn.\n\nGofynnaf i’r Senedd gymryd y mater hwn o ddifrif, ac ystyried sefydlu Ymchwiliad Cyhoeddus llawn, tryloyw ac annibynnol. Nid er budd fy nheulu yn unig y mae hyn, ond er uniondeb hanes, cyfiawnder tir, a hawliau dynol yng Nghymru.\n\nYn gywir,\n\nSion Buckler\n\n----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nSirs/Ma'am,\n\nI am writing to you regarding a significant historical injustice involving my family, the Bucklers, and the destruction of Great House Farm (an 800-year-old site of monastic and Marconi history).\n\nFor example, in a 1974 press statement my grandmother said publically 'It's my home'—that directly contradicts the 1987 Court of Appeal ruling that she was 'silent' and accepted of BP license issued in 1974. My dad's appeal for the BP vs Buckler 1987 case also got dismissed on grounds both BP Pension Trust Ltd and BP Properties Ltd were effectively the same company. But in the ruling he was appealing, the judge said that my nans replies to BP Pensions Trust Ltd didn't count as BP Properties Ltd were the claimant, and the two were seperate companies. So it was heads they win, tails we lose. My dad was ripped from his hospital bed, jailed without charge and slapped with a restraining order to keep him from occupying and defending our 800 year old farm from being bulldozed down. His ECHR request blocked before he died in 1991 aged just 41.\n\nI am requesting a Petition for a Public Inquiry into this case as a matter of historical land theft and human rights violations in Wales.\n\nI'm a military cyber and electronic warfare professional. We all have very powerful AI technology at our disposal which can make light work out of all of this. My family suffered an incredible injustice. It also appears to be multi-generational warfare/ lawfare. Whereby we were treated as free labour to upkeep the asset of the land and property until it was ripe to be cashed in. I say this as every action against us seemed to be last minute.\n\nThere was allegedly press covering the 74 case and supporting my nan and family and farm. There was a petition of 1700 people trying to defend us and the farm from demolishment. CADW looked the other way when it should have been a Grade II listed building. I could go on and on and on.\n\nI'm not even sure the land registry recorded that our land, being registered in 1982 by BP , was in dispute. I believe it was treated as if it wasn't dispited. No court actually definitively determined that BP were the landowners. It was just asserted.\n\nMarconi stayed with our family at our farm when inventing radio. The councillors and parish at Llandough won't even acknowledge this. I understand Marconi was far right and so, like the radio statute at Cardiff Bay has confirmed, he is being re-written out of history.  It stands to reason that our family was caught in this political campaign of left vs right. And for helping Marconi we found ourselves experiencing a century of problems afterwards. Which didn't exist for the 3 centuries we were at our farm before letting far right marconi stay with us. Marconi's mother was also Jamerson of the Irish Whiskey company.\n\nDo your own homework. Make your own enquiries. Draw your own conclusions.\n\n But please do not let history be rewritten here. My family are exploring options for public speaking, story rights, and a documentary etc.\n\nMy grandfather was Ray Smith, of Dempsey and Makepeace. My aunty Shan Cothi. My uncle started the band tigertailz.\n\nThis is an outrage and my family demands justice for being displaced and stolen from, land and property, by the British Establishment/ BP -  with little to no protections under law. And we're indigenous to the land, Welsh, Welsh speaking, Welsh family. Resident in Cardiff / Vale and that farm in Llandough for HUNDREDS OF YEARS.\n\nThere's tens of counts of fraud and concealment from what I can gather. Which means the statute of limitation doesn't apply in this instance. I know some are in favour of Wales decolonising and gaining independence. I think there's no better example of BP vs Buckler 1987 and what has happened to my family. Nobody else will bring this up because there's generational trauma. Notwithstanding we, a welsh farming family, are speaking up and against the British State and BP.\n\nBut I've proven myself. Leaving my military career with honours. Finishing my 22 years Oath, bona fide, employed by the Vale of Glamorgan Council, Welsh Government until 2024. I served in the wars in the middle east. I don't know what is going on, on that island. But the farm injustice isn't the only matter. My 36 day old son was abducted in 2013 and I've never seen him since. I had a house stolen (40 Lombard Street, Barry). And in 2023 I was left to sleep in a tent, while almost 100 afghans were secretly housed next to our 11 home village. Where I had to be to care for my grandmother, as no carers couldn't reach her. So I'm currently at the Welsh Settlement in Argentina. So I'm as displaced and replaced as I can be to cater for the insanity that's going on, on that island. And grateful I've managed to survive it all with my liberty and life and reputation somewhat still intact. But I would have actually liked to have remained in Wales as a Welshman. And have some quality and standard of life. My wife and I are reluctant for our daughter to even step foot on the British Isles with what we're hearing that's going on there lately. And I even exported my dog from Swansea to our place in the Caribbean in 2024 after an afghan was in my family's garden in Wales, trying to steal him.\n\nI look forward to your reply,\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler"},{"id":"gm-19c6782c59e0f10f","subject":"Automatic reply: Title Fraud and Procedural Concealment – Church View Close, Llandough (formerly Great House Farm/ \"Ty Mawr\")","name":"Automatic reply: Title Fraud and Procedural Concealment – Church View Close, Llandough (formerly Great House Farm/ \"Ty Mawr\")","date":"2026-02-16T17:32:24Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19c6782c59e0f10f.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19c6782c59e0f10f-automatic-reply-title-fraud-and-procedural-concealment-church-view-close-llandough-formerly-great-house-farm-ty-mawr","scopeTopics":["mp-vale"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["mp-vale"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19c6782c59e0f10f","direction":"received","from":"NARAYAN, Kanishka (MP)","institutions":[{"id":"mp-vale","name":"Member of Parliament (Vale of Glamorgan)"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19c6782c59e0f10f.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Hello,\n\nThank you for reaching out to me.

Identity and Procedural Integrity**\n\nThe 1987 judgment turned on a 1974 licence addressed to \"Mrs Buckler\". My\ngrandmother, Mary Williams, did not use or accept this designation.\nContemporaneous evidence (1978 newspaper article attached) records her\nasserting ownership under her correct name.\n\nIf the 1987 court was not presented with this evidence, the judgment may\nrest on an incomplete factual record. This raises procedural fairness\nconcerns relevant to any future review of the decision.\n\n**2. Heritage Information and Statutory Compliance**\n\nThe site's archaeological significance was documented by 1978 (Roman\nburials, monastic associations). Yet professional excavations in 1994\nrevealed 1,026 early medieval burials and monastic structures—findings that\nshould have prompted evaluation under the Ancient Monuments and\nArchaeological Areas Act 1979.\n\nCritical question: Did the Council conduct or require prior archaeological\nassessment before granting permissions to demolish? If not, this represents\na potential gap in statutory process that may affect the validity of the\npermissions granted.\n\n**3. Land Registry Disclosure**\n\nBP registered title in 1982 based on the disputed licence. The Council\nshould establish:\n- Whether any dispute notice or heritage caution was lodged;\n- Whether the Council disclosed relevant heritage information to the Land\nRegistry;\n- What planning records exist from 1978–1988 regarding the site's known\narchaeological potential.\n\n**4. Corporate Identity Inconsistency**\n\nDuring my father's appeal, the court treated BP Properties Ltd and BP\nPension Trust Ltd inconsistently—as separate entities when convenient, then\nas one when dismissing his claim. This raises questions about how\nthoroughly the litigation was scrutinised and whether the Council's records\nreflect this uncertainty.\n\nWHY THIS MATTERS TO THE COUNCIL\n\nThese issues go beyond a single historical dispute. They touch on:\n\n- **Planning record integrity**: Whether heritage information was\nadequately documented and acted upon;\n- **Procedural compliance**: Whether statutory protections (Ancient\nMonuments Act) were properly applied;\n- **Institutional liability**: Whether decisions were made on incomplete or\nmisleading information;\n- **Precedent risk**: Whether similar vulnerabilities may exist in other\nhistorical planning decisions.\n\nREQUESTS\n\nI ask the Council to:\n\n1. **Commission a review** of the planning permissions granted between\n1978–1988 for Great House Farm, specifically examining what heritage and\narchaeological information was available to decision-makers and how it was\nhandled.\n\n2. **Refer this matter to the Monitoring Officer** for examination of\nprocedural compliance and record integrity.\n\n3. **Establish** what correspondence, cautions, or dispute notices exist in\nrelation to this site's title or heritage status.\n\n4. **Clarify the Council's current protocol** for handling historical title\ndisputes, previously unknown heritage information, or allegations of\nmaterial non-disclosure in past planning processes—to prevent recurrence.\n\nI am not asking the Council to reverse the 1987 judgment or disturb current\nresidents. I am asking it to ensure its own records are accurate and its\nown processes are defensible.\n\nI attach the 1978 article and supporting documents, and am available to\nmeet or provide further information.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler, Sgt (Ret'd)\nExecutor for the Manor of Llandough\n[address redacted], Dinas Powys, [postcode redacted]"},{"id":"gm-19c63f949558570d","subject":"Subject: Freedom of Information Request - Ty Mawr (Great House), Llandough, near Penarth (1938-1987)","name":"Subject: Freedom of Information Request - Ty Mawr (Great House), Llandough, near Penarth (1938-1987)","date":"2026-02-16T01:03:26Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19c63f949558570d.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19c63e3b39172545-subject-freedom-of-information-request-ty-mawr-great-house-llandough-near-penarth-1938-1987","scopeTopics":["hmlr","vale-foi"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["hmlr","vale-foi"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19c63e3b39172545","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"hmlr","name":"HM Land Registry"},{"id":"vale-foi","name":"Vale of Glamorgan Council"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19c63f949558570d.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Sir/Madam,\n\nI understand you may already be busy, so please don't feel overwhelmed by\nthis FOI request—I'm conducting my own diligence and happy for you to take\nthe full statutory 20 working days to respond.\n\nUnder the Freedom of Information Act 2000, I request copies of all records,\ncorrespondence, memoranda, internal notes, minutes, file notes, land\nregistration applications, objections, or communications held by HM Land\nRegistry from 1 January 1938 to 31 December 1987 relating to:Ty Mawr (Great\nHouse), Llandough, near Penarth, South Glamorgan (also known as Great House\nFarm).\n\nLand registration applications, title transfers, or dealings involving\nMountjoy Ltd, Western Ground Rents Ltd, BP Pension Trust Ltd, and/or BP\nProperties Ltd (including the 1938 auction/reversion conveyance and 1969\nsale).\n\nInteractions, notices, proceedings, tenancy offers, licences (e.g., 1974\nunilateral lifetime licence letters), or disputes involving Mrs Mary\nWilliams (also referred to as Mrs Buckler), Mr Frederick Buckler, or\nWilliams/Buckler family occupiers—particularly the 1962 Cardiff County\nCourt possession proceedings (Dec 11 order by Judge Temple Morris QC).\n\nAny possession proceedings, adverse possession claims, or title objections\nconnected to the property (e.g., 1955 High Court, 1962 Cardiff County\nCourt, 1974 actions).\n\nPlease include archived, off-site, or scanned records where applicable.If\nexemptions apply (e.g., Section 40 personal data), specify which and why.\nIf costs exceed the appropriate limit, advise how to refine (e.g.,\nprioritize 1955-1987 or 1962/1974 events).\n\nI look forward to your response within 20 working days.\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nSion Buckler Esq.

I should not have stated this as an established fact, and I apologise for any confusion caused.\nNew Evidence\nSince my last email, I have obtained a Forensic Evaluation and Assessment of Restitutionary Claims (dated February 8, 2026) regarding the dispossession of the Williams family from Great House Farm, Llandough. This professional assessment provides additional context that may assist in understanding the archival gaps previously identified.\nThe forensic report specifically examines:\n\n  1.\nThe \"Mrs. Buckler\" nomenclature: The analysis characterises the consistent use of \"Mrs. Buckler\" in court records and correspondence as \"strategic misnaming\" rather than clerical error, given that Mary Williams never adopted her husband's surname. This raises questions about whether The National Archives holds any records indicating her formal objection to this identification or her consistent use of \"Mary Williams\" in legal proceedings.\n  2.\nThe 1974 license letters: The report notes that letters dated October/November 1974 were addressed to a \"non-existent legal persona,\" facilitating a judicial finding of \"silence as consent.\" I ask again whether The National Archives holds any corporate records from BP Properties Ltd or BP Pension Trust Ltd regarding this correspondence, or any indication that such records were considered for preservation.\n  3.\nThe 1974 adjournment: The forensic assessment questions why proceedings were adjourned part-heard on July 3, 1974, given your confirmation that principal judicial series contain no relevant material. I request clarification on whether any Cardiff County Court records from 1974-1975 were transferred to The National Archives under subsequent protocols, or whether they remain with the court.\n\nRevised Request\nGiven this additional professional analysis, I renew my request for guidance on:\n\n  *\nWhether The National Archives has received any complaints or inquiries regarding missing Bute Estate records or Great House Farm documents from other researchers;\n  *\nWhether corporate records from BP entities relating to this acquisition were ever selected for preservation; and\n  *\nWhether any mechanism exists for flagging concerns about record completeness where forensic analysis suggests potential irregularities in the historical record.\n\nI remain grateful for your time and professionalism, and I hope this clarification assists in addressing my inquiry.\nYours sincerely,\nSion Buckler\n\n\n\n\nOn Sun, 8 Feb 2026 at 06:57, Sion Buckler  > wrote:\n\nMs Smith,\nThank you for your detailed response regarding selection policies and retention schedules. I appreciate the procedural clarity you have provided. However, I must respectfully indicate that your reply does not address the substantive concerns I have raised, and I am now compelled to escalate this matter formally.\n1. From \"Archival Silence\" to Potential Evidence Tampering\nYou correctly note that archival silences are well-documented in academic literature. However, the circumstances surrounding Great House Farm suggest something more concerning than routine selection decisions. I am now in possession of first-hand testimony (David Buckler, 2024) alleging that:\n\n  *\nFrederick Buckler (my grandfather) and his eldest son engaged a solicitor privately in the 1960s\n  *\nTitle documents were removed from the family home and allegedly sold\n  *\nThe family was deliberately misled with the phrase \"it's all been dealt with legally\"\n\nThis testimony, combined with the disappearance of the Bute Estate → Daniel Thomas deed index card from Cardiff Library (reported missing in 1984), suggests potential spoliation of evidence rather than routine archival selection. The question is no longer \"why weren't records preserved?\" but \"were records deliberately removed to prejudice a 320-year possessory claim?\"\n2. The Computerised Records Question\nYou direct me to search your catalogue. I have done so. However, I now ask specifically:\n\n  *\nDoes The National Archives hold any digitised or microfilmed copies of the Bute Estate records that might contain references to the Daniel Thomas quarrying agreement (circa 1895-1905) or the 1938 auction at the Bear Hotel?\n  *\nAre there any internal indices or finding aids (particularly from the 1970s-1980s) that might reference Great House Farm, Llandough, or the BP/Western Ground Rents acquisition records that are not reflected in the current online catalogue?\n\nThe 1994 archaeological excavation report (Cotswold Archaeological Trust) confirms the site's national significance. The absence of corresponding land transaction records from the same period is itself an anomaly requiring explanation.\n3. The BP Corporate Records Question\nYou note that parties are generally responsible for maintaining their own records. However, BP Properties Ltd and BP Pension Trust Ltd were corporate entities with statutory filing obligations. I ask:\n\n  *\nWere any BP corporate records relating to land acquisition in South Glamorgan (1969-1988) selected for preservation under the Companies Act or as part of the public record?\n  *\nHas The National Archives ever received or sought records from BP regarding the Great House Farm acquisition, demolition, or the 1987 litigation?\n\nThe Court of Appeal judgment [1987] EWCA Civ 2 notes that BP issued letters on 31 October 1974, not received until November 4th 1974 —letters that were allegedly \"accepted by silence.\" The original correspondence would constitute primary evidence of potentially fraudulent misrepresentation. If these were not preserved, I ask under what authority they were destroyed and whether this occurred before or after the litigation concluded.\n4. Request for Formal Investigation\nI am not seeking annotation of records. I am seeking:\n\n  1.\nA formal review of whether records relating to Great House Farm, Llandough (ST 168 733) were selected for preservation, destroyed, or remain non accessioned;\n  2.\nA search of microfilm, digitised, or legacy finding aid holdings for any reference to the 1938 auction, Western Ground Rents acquisition, or the Daniel Thomas quarrying agreement;\n  3.\nConfirmation of whether The National Archives has ever received complaints regarding missing Bute Estate records or BP land acquisition documents from other researchers;\n  4.\nGuidance on the appropriate authority to investigate allegations of document removal from Cardiff Library (1984) and potential fraud in the 1982 land registration.\n\n5. Public Interest and Parliamentary Scrutiny\nThis matter involves:\n\n  *\nThe forced removal of a family from land occupied since at least 1667\n  *\nDemolition of a medieval structure described as a \"dilapidated utility building\" to avoid heritage protection\n  *\nArchaeological discoveries (1888, 1994) that were known but officially \"forgotten\"\n  *\nA Court of Appeal decision ([1987] EWCA Civ 2) that may have relied on incomplete or fraudulent evidence\n\nI am copying my MP and the Parliamentary Ombudsman in this correspondence. I will also be submitting a Subject Access Request to HM Land Registry regarding the 1982 registration and a complaint to the Information Commissioner's Office regarding potential destruction of records relevant to ongoing property disputes.\nI request a substantive response addressing the specific questions above within 20 working days. Should The National Archives be unable to assist further, I request a formal referral to the appropriate body with jurisdiction over historical record fraud and spoliation.\nYours sincerely,\nSion Buckler\n\n\n\n\nOn Sat, 7 Feb 2026 at 07:26, RESO Records Enquiries  > wrote:\n\nDear Sion,\n\nThe question about archival silences is one upon which there is a voluminous literature. Practically, however, the best way of making sense of what is and is not in the archives is to refer to the reports which shaped selection policies in the modern era - see especially the Report on Departmental Records (Cmnd 9136) and the Report on Legal Records (Cmnd 3084) - and the resulting retention and disposition schedules - see for example the one for the Court of Appeal (Civil Division) published here .\n\nWhat you will see from these is that the presumption for modern records is against permanent preservation. In general, apart from small samples to demonstrate the ordinary functioning of the courts/government departments, records are only preserved if they bear witness to moments of particular legal or policy significance or change. In the case of legal records, the presumption has been that parties would be responsible for maintaining their own records.\n\nIn terms of how to continue your search, my instinct is that you should consider exploring the holdings of the relevant local archive. You can also try some keyword searches in our catalogue - see, for example, these  search results which highlight these  series as potentially a relevant source of desired information. You might also wish to search the registered files of the land registry in records series LAR 1 . You should be advised, however, that departmental records tend to focus more on policy than upon the treatment of individual cases.\n\nI hope that this is helpful.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nCharlotte Smith\n\nPrincipal Records Specialist, Modern Legal Records\nwww.nationalarchives.gov.uk \n\nEnquiry:\n\n\n\nI note and appreciate your confirmation that the principal judicial series (J 157, J 83, J 84) contain no relevant material. Given the scale of the consequences flowing from the dispute—forced removal, demolition of an occupied dwelling, and loss of heritage fabric—the absence of supporting court or administrative files is itself significant for researchers.\n\nAccordingly, I would be grateful for guidance on the following procedural points:\n\n  *   how researchers are expected to interpret gaps or silence in the archival record where substantial actions plainly occurred;\n  *   whether related non-judicial records (for example, departmental, planning, regulatory, or corporate records connected to land registration, planning consent, or archaeological works) are more likely to sit outside the obvious court series; and\n  *   whether there is an appropriate mechanism for flagging concerns about record completeness or contextual risk, without seeking alteration of the records themselves.\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, I am not alleging impropriety on the part of The National Archives or its staff. My concern is to ensure that the historical record is approached with appropriate caution where absence may unintentionally convey certainty or closure that did not exist at the time.\n\nPlease don't print this e-mail unless you really need to. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- National Archives Disclaimer This email and any files transmitted with it are intended solely for the use of the individual(s) to whom they are addressed.

It\nis not informal correspondence. I urge you not to resort to silence,\ndeflection, or delay, as doing so following receipt of this notice\nconstitutes knowing reliance upon, and maintenance of, records alleged to\nbe materially defective through fraud, concealment, denial of due process,\nand systemic erasure. Please report any suspicious activity and\ndiscrepancies identified.\n\nThis Notice is issued in pursuit of narrative justice at this stage; formal\njudicial remedies are expressly reserved. It serves to document our\nfamily's side of the story before it is completely erased and history\nrewritten, ensuring awareness among custodians of land, heritage, heraldry,\narchaeology, and public records.\n\nMy elder brother, Rhys Buckler, and I are the sons of the late William\nBuckler (d. 1991), defendant in the landmark legal case *BP Properties Ltd\nv Buckler* (1987), and the grandchildren of the late Mary Williams, whose\ndispossession, marginalisation, and exclusion from judicial determination\nremain unresolved matters of record. Mary Williams was repeatedly and\nmaterially falsely addressed/mislabeled in legal and administrative records\nas “Mrs Buckler,” a misidentification that was never judicially tested and\nwhich directly affected the handling, scope, and outcome of proceedings.\nThe Williams/Buckler family held claim to the land title, having acquired\nand occupied Great House Farm continuously since 1667, based on family\nrecords, historical evidence, and centuries of resistance to adverse claims.\n\nI place on record that I am the first member of my family able to speak\npublicly and formally on these matters. Other close family members remain\ntoo traumatised and intimidated by the historical conduct of these\nproceedings—including violent eviction, demolition, and loss of\nlivelihood—to engage, despite the continuing consequences of dispossession.\nThat silence must not be misread as consent, acquiescence, or abandonment\nof right. There is a material distinction between free silence and silence\nproduced by fear, trauma, and coercive experience.\n\nThe story, as we have pieced it together, reveals a multi-generational\npattern of lawfare and siege: from Norman/English conquests in 1100\ngranting lordships over ancient Welsh Christian landscapes, through\nmonastic (1215–1539) and Crown seizures (1539 onward), to industrial\nencroachments (e.g., 1876 Limeworks severance without consent) and modern\ncorporate possession actions. This culminated in the 1988 demolition of an\n800-year-old farmhouse amid police standoffs, leaving the family homeless\nand the site scarred, now buried under Church View Close. Archaeological\nvindication came too late—1994 excavations revealed over 1,000 Roman and\nmedieval burials, confirming family warnings (e.g., the 1870 Roman soldier\ndiscovery under the living room floor, suppressed by authorities)—yet\nheritage records celebrate the site while omitting our dispossession.\n\nThe following assertions of right are now formally placed on record. They\nhave never been lawfully adjudicated or extinguished:\n\n   1. Rhys Buckler may be the rightful Manorial Lord of the Manor of\n   Llandough, by right of primogeniture and continuous hereditary connection\n   arising from our family’s occupation of Great House Farm from 1667 until\n   our narrative, legal, and physical dispossession.\n   2. I assert a claim to act as Squire of the Manor of Llandough, as\n   executive representative and guardian of the Buckler–Williams estate and\n   matriarchal lineage, with a mandate to pursue correction of record,\n   restitution, and restorative remedies.\n\nThese are assertions of right, not settled declarations, placed on record\npending proper adjudication—which has been historically obstructed through\nprocedural narrowing, missing documents, and avoidance of full hearings.\n\nIn 1974, Mary Williams was twice prevented from presenting her case and\nobtaining a judicial determination of superior ownership, despite claims\ngrounded in long occupation, intent, and possession. The court confined\ninquiry to *animus possidendi* (intention to possess) and excluded *animus\ndomini* (intention to own), reclassifying her from putative owner to mere\noccupier and foreclosing title adjudication. BP sought possession only, not\nownership rulings—a choice unexplained and significant. Proceedings were\nadjourned or quashed without resolution.\n\nThis occurred despite evidence of ownership intent, including:\n\n   - Centuries-long occupation and resistance (e.g., failed 1938 auction\n   due to local support; post-1945 rent disputes).\n   - Roman-era remains and historical significance (e.g., Guglielmo\n   Marconi's 1897 residence during radio experiments, with family aid erased\n   from records).\n   - Unformalized deals like the 1895–1905 Daniel Thomas quarrying\n   permission for promised title, undermined by vanished deeds.\n\nJudicial ownership examination would have engaged archaeological/heritage\nprotections, incompatible with redevelopment—consequences avoided, raising\ncredibility concerns.\n\nSerious unresolved anomalies persist, indicating something is still not\nright with the record:\n\n   - Licence correspondence dated 31 October 1974 surfacing only on 4\n   November, potentially interrupting proceedings to prevent hearings.\n   - Claims of 1974 benevolent withdrawal under press scrutiny unsupported\n   by verifiable coverage.\n   - Land registration before Mary Williams’s 1983 death without title\n   determination; disputes possibly lodged/suppressed by Land Registry.\n   - Inconsistent treatment of BP entities across proceedings to family\n   detriment.\n   - Procedural barriers preventing effective defense (e.g., interrupted\n   essential services post-licence; 1960–1987 court rulings dismissing\n   ancestral title as \"notion\" without evidence).\n   - Knowing bypass of archaeological constraints (e.g., 1978 trenches\n   ignored; no contemporaneous 1970s/1990s press on discoveries amid\n   development).\n   - Missing key documents (e.g., 1667 conveyance, 1811–1835 Lambert\n   Williams agreements proving status, 1982–84 library deeds vanishing).\n   - Risks of further erasure: Heritage databases celebrate \"Llandough\n   Roman villa cemetery\" while omitting our saga; modern residents unaware of\n   the \"battleground\" site.\n\nThese anomalies suggest systemic theft, from colonial English subjugation\n(e.g., 1543–1770 orbit shifts) to corporate siege, during Wales'\ncultural/economic transitions. Authority derived through such means is\nillegitimate under natural justice, customary Welsh principles, and\nmoral-legal frameworks. The record's distortion secures advantage, but\npassage of time does not validate it.\n\nPreliminary assessment indicates cumulative benefits from redevelopment\n(absent title extinguishment) exceed £100 million, forming a basis for\nreparations—covering lost land, artifacts, livelihood, and trauma.\n\nI require relevant public servants, custodians, and office-holders\n(including Land Registry, heraldry bodies, museums, archaeologists, MPs,\nhistorians, and councillors) to cease delay, engage substantively,\nreview/correct/annotate records where defective, and prevent further\nrewriting of history. Justice delayed is denied, especially with verifiable\nevidence available.\n\nThis Notice:\n\n   - Challenges the record's accuracy, completeness, and legitimacy.\n   - Place assertions of title/standing on record pending adjudication.\n   - Reserves all rights without prejudice.\n   - Puts officials/beneficiaries on notice that silence/reliance may\n   aggravate responsibility.\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, His Majesty the King was notified yesterday.\n\nThis serves as an invitation to engage constructively before reliance\nbecomes untenable.\n\nRegards, Sion Buckler On behalf of the Buckler–Williams family [address redacted],\nDinas Powys, Vale of Glamorgan, Wales. https://bpvsbuckler.datro.xyz\n\n*Postscript — Disability and Succession (Material Notice):* The\nheir-apparent to the asserted Manorial Lordship is Rhys Buckler’s son, a\nyoung man with Down syndrome.

I should not have stated this\nas an established fact, and I apologise for any confusion caused.\nNew Evidence\nSince my last email, I have obtained a Forensic Evaluation and Assessment\nof Restitutionary Claims (dated February 8, 2026) regarding the\ndispossession of the Williams family from Great House Farm, Llandough. This\nprofessional assessment provides additional context that may assist in\nunderstanding the archival gaps previously identified.\nThe forensic report specifically examines:\n\n   1. The \"Mrs. Buckler\" nomenclature: The analysis characterises the\n   consistent use of \"Mrs. Buckler\" in court records and correspondence as\n   \"strategic misnaming\" rather than clerical error, given that Mary Williams\n   never adopted her husband's surname. This raises questions about whether\n   The National Archives holds any records indicating her formal objection to\n   this identification or her consistent use of \"Mary Williams\" in legal\n   proceedings.\n   2. The 1974 license letters: The report notes that letters dated\n   October/November 1974 were addressed to a \"non-existent legal persona,\"\n   facilitating a judicial finding of \"silence as consent.\" I ask again\n   whether The National Archives holds any corporate records from BP\n   Properties Ltd or BP Pension Trust Ltd regarding this correspondence, or\n   any indication that such records were considered for preservation.\n   3. The 1974 adjournment: The forensic assessment questions why\n   proceedings were adjourned part-heard on July 3, 1974, given your\n   confirmation that principal judicial series contain no relevant material. I\n   request clarification on whether any Cardiff County Court records from\n   1974-1975 were transferred to The National Archives under subsequent\n   protocols, or whether they remain with the court.\n\nRevised Request\nGiven this additional professional analysis, I renew my request for\nguidance on:\n\n   - Whether The National Archives has received any complaints or inquiries\n   regarding missing Bute Estate records or Great House Farm documents from\n   other researchers;\n   - Whether corporate records from BP entities relating to this\n   acquisition were ever selected for preservation; and\n   - Whether any mechanism exists for flagging concerns about record\n   completeness where forensic analysis suggests potential irregularities in\n   the historical record.\n\nI remain grateful for your time and professionalism, and I hope this\nclarification assists in addressing my inquiry.\nYours sincerely,\nSion Buckler\n\n\nOn Sun, 8 Feb 2026 at 06:57, Sion Buckler <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Ms Smith,\n> Thank you for your detailed response regarding selection policies and\n> retention schedules.

The question is no longer \"why weren't records\n> preserved?\" but \"were records deliberately removed to prejudice a 320-year\n> possessory claim?\"\n> 2. The Computerised Records Question\n> You direct me to search your catalogue. I have done so.

The BP Corporate Records Question\n> You note that parties are generally responsible for maintaining their own\n> records. However, BP Properties Ltd and BP Pension Trust Ltd were corporate\n> entities with statutory filing obligations. I ask:\n>\n>    - Were any BP corporate records relating to land acquisition in South\n>    Glamorgan (1969-1988) selected for preservation under the Companies\n>    Act or as part of the public record?\n>    - Has The National Archives ever received or sought records from BP\n>    regarding the Great House Farm acquisition, demolition, or the 1987\n>    litigation?\n>\n> The Court of Appeal judgment [1987] EWCA Civ 2 notes that BP issued\n> letters on 31 October 1974, not received until November 4th 1974 —letters\n> that were allegedly \"accepted by silence.\" The original correspondence\n> would constitute primary evidence of potentially fraudulent\n> misrepresentation. If these were not preserved, I ask under what authority\n> they were destroyed and whether this occurred before or after the\n> litigation concluded.\n> 4. Request for Formal Investigation\n> I am not seeking annotation of records. I am seeking:\n>\n>    1. A formal review of whether records relating to Great House Farm,\n>    Llandough (ST 168 733) were selected for preservation, destroyed, or\n>    remain non accessioned;\n>    2. A search of microfilm, digitised, or legacy finding aid holdings\n>    for any reference to the 1938 auction, Western Ground Rents acquisition, or\n>    the Daniel Thomas quarrying agreement;\n>    3. Confirmation of whether The National Archives has ever received\n>    complaints regarding missing Bute Estate records or BP land\n>    acquisition documents from other researchers;\n>    4. Guidance on the appropriate authority to investigate allegations of\n>    document removal from Cardiff Library (1984) and potential fraud in the\n>    1982 land registration.\n>\n> 5. Public Interest and Parliamentary Scrutiny\n> This matter involves:\n>\n>    - The forced removal of a family from land occupied since at least 1667\n>    - Demolition of a medieval structure described as a \"dilapidated\n>    utility building\" to avoid heritage protection\n>    - Archaeological discoveries (1888, 1994) that were known but\n>    officially \"forgotten\"\n>    - A Court of Appeal decision ([1987] EWCA Civ 2) that may have relied\n>    on incomplete or fraudulent evidence\n>\n> I am copying my MP and the Parliamentary Ombudsman in this correspondence.\n> I will also be submitting a Subject Access Request to HM Land Registry\n> regarding the 1982 registration and a complaint to the Information\n> Commissioner's Office regarding potential destruction of records relevant\n> to ongoing property disputes.\n> I request a substantive response addressing the specific questions above\n> within 20 working days.

I appreciate the procedural clarity you have provided.\nHowever, I must respectfully indicate that your reply does not address the\nsubstantive concerns I have raised, and I am now compelled to escalate this\nmatter formally.\n1. From \"Archival Silence\" to Potential Evidence Tampering\nYou correctly note that archival silences are well-documented in academic\nliterature. However, the circumstances surrounding Great House Farm suggest\nsomething more concerning than routine selection decisions. I am now in\npossession of first-hand testimony (David Buckler, 2024) alleging that:\n\n   - Frederick Buckler (my grandfather) and his eldest son engaged a\n   solicitor privately in the 1960s\n   - Title documents were removed from the family home and allegedly sold\n   - The family was deliberately misled with the phrase \"it's all been\n   dealt with legally\"\n\nThis testimony, combined with the disappearance of the Bute Estate → Daniel\nThomas deed index card from Cardiff Library (reported missing in 1984),\nsuggests potential spoliation of evidence rather than routine archival\nselection. The question is no longer \"why weren't records preserved?\" but\n\"were records deliberately removed to prejudice a 320-year possessory\nclaim?\"\n2. The Computerised Records Question\nYou direct me to search your catalogue. I have done so. However, I now ask\nspecifically:\n\n   - Does The National Archives hold any digitised or microfilmed copies of\n   the Bute Estate records that might contain references to the Daniel\n   Thomas quarrying agreement (circa 1895-1905) or the 1938 auction at the\n   Bear Hotel?\n   - Are there any internal indices or finding aids (particularly from the\n   1970s-1980s) that might reference Great House Farm, Llandough, or the\n   BP/Western Ground Rents acquisition records that are not reflected in the\n   current online catalogue?\n\nThe 1994 archaeological excavation report (Cotswold Archaeological Trust)\nconfirms the site's national significance. The absence of corresponding\nland transaction records from the same period is itself an anomaly\nrequiring explanation.\n3. The BP Corporate Records Question\nYou note that parties are generally responsible for maintaining their own\nrecords. However, BP Properties Ltd and BP Pension Trust Ltd were corporate\nentities with statutory filing obligations. I ask:\n\n   - Were any BP corporate records relating to land acquisition in South\n   Glamorgan (1969-1988) selected for preservation under the Companies Act\n   or as part of the public record?\n   - Has The National Archives ever received or sought records from BP\n   regarding the Great House Farm acquisition, demolition, or the 1987\n   litigation?\n\nThe Court of Appeal judgment [1987] EWCA Civ 2 notes that BP issued letters\non 31 October 1974, not received until November 4th 1974 —letters that were\nallegedly \"accepted by silence.\" The original correspondence would\nconstitute primary evidence of potentially fraudulent misrepresentation. If\nthese were not preserved, I ask under what authority they were destroyed\nand whether this occurred before or after the litigation concluded.\n4. Request for Formal Investigation\nI am not seeking annotation of records. I am seeking:\n\n   1. A formal review of whether records relating to Great House Farm,\n   Llandough (ST 168 733) were selected for preservation, destroyed, or\n   remain non accessioned;\n   2. A search of microfilm, digitised, or legacy finding aid holdings for\n   any reference to the 1938 auction, Western Ground Rents acquisition, or the\n   Daniel Thomas quarrying agreement;\n   3. Confirmation of whether The National Archives has ever received\n   complaints regarding missing Bute Estate records or BP land acquisition\n   documents from other researchers;\n   4. Guidance on the appropriate authority to investigate allegations of\n   document removal from Cardiff Library (1984) and potential fraud in the\n   1982 land registration.\n\n5. Public Interest and Parliamentary Scrutiny\nThis matter involves:\n\n   - The forced removal of a family from land occupied since at least 1667\n   - Demolition of a medieval structure described as a \"dilapidated utility\n   building\" to avoid heritage protection\n   - Archaeological discoveries (1888, 1994) that were known but officially\n   \"forgotten\"\n   - A Court of Appeal decision ([1987] EWCA Civ 2) that may have relied on\n   incomplete or fraudulent evidence\n\nI am copying my MP and the Parliamentary Ombudsman in this correspondence.\nI will also be submitting a Subject Access Request to HM Land Registry\nregarding the 1982 registration and a complaint to the Information\nCommissioner's Office regarding potential destruction of records relevant\nto ongoing property disputes.\nI request a substantive response addressing the specific questions above\nwithin 20 working days. Should The National Archives be unable to assist\nfurther, I request a formal referral to the appropriate body with\njurisdiction over historical record fraud and spoliation.\nYours sincerely,\nSion Buckler\n\n\nOn Sat, 7 Feb 2026 at 07:26, RESO Records Enquiries <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Sion,\n>\n> The question about archival silences is one upon which there is a\n> voluminous literature.

My purpose in writing is not to\nseek amendment, adjudication, or retrospective commentary, but to raise a\nspecific concern about how absence, silence, and fragmentation within the\narchival record should be understood where material public consequences\nclearly followed.\n\nBy way of clarification, my concern relates to the historical record\nsurrounding Great House Farm, Llandough, and the proceedings culminating in *BP\nProperties Ltd v Buckler* [1987] EWCA Civ 2. In particular:\n\n   - Ownership and occupation of the farmhouse and garden were actively\n   contested in 1974, with a defence asserting adverse possession filed on\n   behalf of Mary Williams, and the matter adjourned without a final\n   determination of title.\n   - Enforcement of earlier possession orders was deferred, a warrant was\n   withdrawn on 31 October 1974, and the occupier remained in possession until\n   her death in 1983.\n   - Despite this, land registration, demolition (1988), and archaeological\n   intervention proceeded without a High Court determination of ownership and\n   without disclosure of earlier, locally known archaeological discoveries.\n   - A Roman burial reportedly discovered beneath the farmhouse in 1888 by\n   the occupying family appears not to have been reflected in later “rescue”\n   excavations (1978–1980) or the major 1994 excavation, which treated Roman\n   and early medieval burials as newly revealed.\n\nTaken together, this produces an archival landscape in which:\n\n   - court files relating to decisive events appear absent or incomplete;\n   - later records imply finality where proceedings were in fact unresolved;\n   - and the destruction of a long-occupied medieval structure occurred\n   before the site’s known archaeological significance was formally\n   acknowledged.\n\nI note and appreciate your confirmation that the principal judicial series\n(J 157, J 83, J 84) contain no relevant material.

As such, it is not possible for\nme to attend the searchroom in person so easy as you're 7,500 miles away,\nnor to “pop in” to consult records on site. Requiring physical attendance\nor payment for access is therefore not a practical or equitable option in\nmy circumstances.\n\nMore importantly, my concern is that certain archival descriptions,\nsurveys, and planning-era records may themselves be inaccurate or\nincomplete as a result of earlier failures of disclosure. Specifically, a\nRoman burial reportedly discovered at Great House Farm in 1888 appears to\nhave been treated as a “surprise” in later archaeological surveys\n(1978/1994), and an occupied, c.800-year-old domestic dwelling was\nrepeatedly described in planning documentation as an “old barn” or “utility\nbuilding.” These characterisations materially affected heritage protection,\nculminating in demolition in 1988.\n\nIn that context, I am not seeking to pay for copies of records whose\naccuracy is itself in question, nor to participate financially in processes\nthat may inadvertently perpetuate errors arising from that period. My\nintention is to place relevant public bodies on notice of a potential issue\nof public record integrity and heritage governance, not to obtain documents\nfor private interest. I have written to the Senedd calling for a public\nenquiry too. I've notified the land registry and serious fraud teams too.\n\nI am therefore asking that my correspondence be treated as a formal\nexpression of concern regarding the reliability and completeness of the\narchival record as it relates to this site, and that this concern be noted\naccordingly. I would also be grateful if you could advise which department\nor officer is appropriate for addressing concerns of this nature, where the\nissue is not access but potential historical misrepresentation within\npublic records.\n\nFor the avoidance of doubt, I am not alleging any impropriety on the part\nof current archive staff. My concern relates to historical processes and\ndecisions, and to ensuring that those matters are properly examined rather\nthan inadvertently reinforced.\n\nThank you for your time and consideration.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nSion Buckler\n------------------------------\n\nOn Fri, 6 Feb 2026, 10:44 Glamro / Swyddfa Cofnodion Morgannwg, <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> *Ref: 2026/0633*\n>\n>\n>\n> Dear Sion Buckler,\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank  you for your email received on 5th February 2026.\n>\n>\n>\n> You would be welcome to visit us to consult the estate plans DB/E/1-2 in\n> our public searchroom and take  your own photographs for free.

The records are left to speak for themselves. In fact, those records are often incomplete and patchwork in character, meaning that they may not enable the enquirer to know what the final determination or outcome of any dispute was.\n\nSince you refer to a reported Court of Appeal (Civil Division) case, I have conducted a quick search of our, admittedly limited holdings. The main record series in which you might expect to find archival material here are J 157<https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C9764>, J 83<https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C9691> and J 84<https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C9692>. Unfortunately, none contain records relevant to the case.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nCharlotte Smith\n\nPrincipal Records Specialist, Modern Legal Records\nwww.nationalarchives.gov.uk<http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/>\n\nEnquiry:\n\n\n\nTo clarify my original enquiry, I am specifically concerned with the historical record surrounding the case of BP Properties Ltd v Buckler [1987] EWCA Civ 2, which involved a disputed land dispossession at Great House Farm in Llandough, South Glamorgan. This stemmed from earlier proceedings in 1974, including an adjourned case in July and an appeal attempt on October 31st that was impacted by correspondence from BP the same day. Following the 1987 ruling, there was forced removal, demolition of our family home, and archaeological activity on the site, despite ongoing questions about the adjudication of ownership prior to land registration.\n\nMy question is not solely about locating ownership or court documents (though any guidance on whether The National Archives holds physical files from these proceedings would be welcome), but rather whether circumstances like these—where ownership was disputed and not fully resolved before registration or excavation—raise any considerations for the integrity or completeness of the archival record. For instance, do such disputes prompt reviews or annotations in historical land records, or are there protocols for archiving related materials from corporate entities like BP or local authorities involved?\n\nI understand your resources are focused on national-level holdings, but any further direction would greatly assist my research.\n\nPlease don't print this e-mail unless you really need to. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- National Archives Disclaimer This email and any files transmitted with it are intended solely for the use of the individual(s) to whom they are addressed.

Learn why this is important \n\nTo whom it may concern,\n\nI am writing to formally report a long-standing and systemic case of what I suspect may be dispossession, fraudulent misrepresentation, and archaeological suppression concerning my family’s ancestral land, Great House Farm (historically Tŷ Mawr/Cedfin), Llandough.\n\nI am the descendant of the Williams/Buckler family, who held de facto possession and indigenous tenure of this land from 1667 until our forced displacement in 1988. I am currently the only member of my family who is not too traumatized to speak of these events. My mother (Mary Williams daughter in law), remains to this day too terrified to speak up about this multi-generational \"lawfare\" campaign waged against us. Our family have not seen justice or received reperations, nor have we sued or reopened this case under limitations act clauses of fraud and consealment. Yet. But this may not be just a grave injustice upon our family, but our nations archeological history and indigenous people on our ancestral birthland. We are Welsh Nationals, Welsh speaking, under Welsh flags. This is some British Colonisation-grade trespass I'm seeing and it's tandamount to a declaration of civil war on me, my family, community and people.\n\nThe core of this report involves the following suspicions I have of concealment and fraud (see attached for my timeline and notes):\n\n  1.  Archaeological Suppression: In 1888, my family discovered a Roman soldier in full armor beneath the living room floorboards. This discovery provided \"actual notice\" of the site's national significance a century before its demolition. We allege this notice was systematically suppressed by corporate and state actors to allow for commercial development.\n\n  2.  Fraudulent Misrepresentation in Planning: During the 1987 planning process, the 13th-century fortified manor was described by developers as a \"dilapidated utility building\" or \"ruined barn\" to secure a demolition permit that would have otherwise been denied under heritage protection laws.\n\n  3.  Legal Identity Falsification: In 1974, BP Pension Trust issued a \"unilateral license\" intended to bypass our possessory title. This correspondence was falsely addressed to \"Mrs. Buckler\" to bind my grandmother to her deceased husband’s name and legal status, despite her public rejection of their claim. She used her maiden name Williams and her husband Bucklers' intent to accept license died with him. My nan also alledgedly didn't expressly deny the offer and so accepted through her silence. But she was near enough voiceless from screaming for decades that she will not do deals with any of them. That's a different kind of silence, if any. And to have responded to license to Mrs Buckler would have been identify fraud as she was Mrs Williams. And she did in fact reject BPs license offer and advanced, countless times, but publically. I believe these objections were suppressed too. There's allegedly news coverage from October 30th 1974 but I'm yet to find the evidence. But see attached a 1978 article I unearthed. My nan clearly maintains her position \"It's my home\".   [cid:ii_19c31438f12e2e321bc2]\n\n  4.  You'll also see in landmark legal case BP Vs Buckler 1987 the judge says that she might have responded to BP, but to BP Pension Trust, but the claimant was BP Properties Ltd which were two separate companies. But in my dads appeal when he challenges that BP Pension Trust Ltd should have been the claimant the same judge dismissed his appeal citing both BP companies are effectively the same. This is clearly a case of heads BP won, Tails we lost.\n\n  5.  Missing Evidence: Critical title deeds and Bute Estate records from our families deal with Daniel Thomas, for title after quarrying completed, in exchange for our permission to quarry, also disappeared from the loft of our home and the Cardiff Library according to my families accounts, precisely when they were needed to support our ownership claim in the Court of Appeal. Regardless we should have still remained on grounds we'd been there since 1667, and failing that on grounds of adverse possession.\n\n  6.  It was evident lawfare to remove us, to get to the burials known about since 1888, BP profited from the land sale, the state and Crown have the exhevated artifacts and my displaced family are left traumatised, cheated and dead. My dad's appeal was dismissed to when it shouldn't have been and his ECHR request blocked, before dying abruptly at age just 41.\n\nThe confirmation in 1994 of a high-status Roman villa and over 1,000 burials on the exact site of our demolished home proves that the \"official narrative\" used to evict us was predicated on the concealment of known facts.\n\nUnder Section 32 of the Limitation Act 1980, the limitation period for action does not begin until such fraud or concealment is discovered. As the heir to this possessory title, I am seeking a formal investigation into the institutional failures that permitted this dispossession and the destruction of a national monument.\n\nI have compiled my account and understanding of these events in timeline order and I'm prepared to provide further testimony and evidence.\n\nGiven the extreme trauma my family has suffered, I request that all correspondence be handled with the gravity this human rights violation deserves.\n\nConsidering the lack of cooperation from my traumatised family. And authorities who maybe complicit and implicated. And possible corruption of records and fraud and consealment, I'm open to the fact my account and understanding may not be perfect. But if even a single other person or group looked into this too, even briefly, I'm sure you'll agree there's merrit to the concerns I'm raising with all of this.\n\nI look forward to your response regarding the appropriate next steps for investigation and restitution.\n\nI do ask for some small sense of urgency in that justice delayed is justice denied. I understand this is ancient news for many, but my family still feel a tremendous sense of disposition and disposition over all of this. Bringing this all up means to re live it.\n\nI will have been 3 or 4 at the time, but I still remember my toys in our house, being bulldozed. And my mum handing us rocks to throw at them, bulldozing down our home. As my dad was held without charges to prevent him defending us and our home. I'd have to visit him in a hospital bed after his heart attack and see him in a coffin shortly afterwards.\n\nI'm 41 years old now. I'm a certified and experienced military commander and leader. I left my military career with honours. I finished 22 years in Oath in 2024, bond afide, my last 2 employed under the Welsh government.\n\nI kindly request but also require of you, that this matter be layed to rest correctly.\n\nMy family never surrendered. Never relinquished claim to that land. We we're in honour in that we weren't there with force, stealth/ secrecy or license. But BP and the British State did use force, stealth/ secrecy and license.\n\nAll things considered I believe I find myself in honour here, and the British Establishment in dishonour. This matter must be escalated. I'm duty bound.\n\n\nRegards,\n\n\nSion Buckler\n\n--\n\nOmbwdsmon Gwasanaethau Cyhoeddus Cymru/ Public Services Ombudsman for Wales\n\n1 Ffordd yr Hen Gae\n\nPencoed\n\nPen-y-Bont ar Ogwr/ Bridgend/\n\n[postcode redacted]\n\nwww.ombwdsmon-cymru.org.uk  / www.ombudsman.wales \n\nhttps://twitter.com/OmbudsmanWales\n\nHybu’r Gymraeg\n\nGallwch ysgrifennu atom yn Gymraeg a byddwn yn ymateb yn Gymraeg.

You’re right to be cautious—sometimes a\n\"hostile\" tone can cause a civil servant to shut down or hide behind red\ntape rather than helping you.\n\nThe reason it feels like they are being cooperative is that they have\nshifted from saying \"no\" to asking for *evidence*. This is a good sign.\nHowever, the reason we are \"rebutting\" is simply to correct their premise:\nthey think this is a recent fraud, and you are correcting them that the\n\"fraud\" was the *original act of registration in 1982.*\n\nLet’s soften the tone to be *\"Helpful but Firm.\"* We will treat them as an\ninvestigator who needs your guidance to find the truth, rather than an\nenemy.\nAdjusted \"Cooperative\" Draft\n\n*Subject:* Information regarding Registration Irregularities – Great House\nFarm (Ty Mawr) – Ref: 260202-5732372\n\n*Dear S.-G. Haste,*\n\nThank you for your guidance on how to proceed with this report. I\nappreciate the opportunity to clarify the nature of the irregularities I\nhave identified.\n\nAs requested, I have attached a *detailed PDF timeline* which provides the\nfull address and the historical context of the land formerly known as Great\nHouse Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough.\n\nTo assist your investigation into how the 1982 registration may have been\naffected by material non-disclosure, I would like to highlight three\nspecific areas where the \"actual facts\" on the ground differed from the\napplication made to the Registry:\n\n   1.\n\n   *Overriding Interests (The Williams Lineage):* At the time of first\n   registration in 1982, my family had been in continuous possession since\n   1667. I believe the registration was irregular because it misidentified the\n   occupant, Mary Williams, as \"Mrs. Buckler\"—a name she did not\n   use—effectively obscuring a 320-year \"Living Title\" from the Registry’s\n   records.\n   2.\n\n   *Suppression of Material Facts (Archaeology):* The site had \"actual\n   notice\" of national archaeological significance due to a Roman discovery in\n   1888. I am concerned that this was suppressed during the registration and\n   planning phases to facilitate the land's transition to housing.\n   3.\n\n   *Unresolved Ownership Claims:* In 1982, there was an active, adjourned\n   ownership dispute (from 1974) that I believe should have been disclosed to\n   the Land Registry before a clean title was granted to BP Properties Ltd.\n\nI am copying in the relevant heritage and oversight bodies (Cadw, GGAT, and\nthe Ombudsman) not as an act of hostility, but to ensure that all parties\nholding pieces of this historical puzzle are aware that an investigation\ninto the *integrity of the 1982 registration* is now underway.\n\nI have also copied in my MP, the Senedd, and relevant heritage bodies to\nensure that all parties with an interest in Welsh cultural heritage and\npublic record integrity are kept informed as we look into these 1982\nregistration details.\n\nI look forward to your thoughts on how we can review the original 1982\napplication files to see if these interests were disclosed.\n\n\nYours sincerely,\n\n\n*Sion Buckler*\n\n*Descendant of the Williams family,*\n\n*of Great House Farm (Ty Mawr), Llandough*\n\n\n\nOn Mon, 2 Feb 2026 at 09:01, Customer Support <\n[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> *Enquiry Reference:* 260202-5732372\n>\n> Dear Customer\n>\n> Thank you for your email dated 31 January 2026.\n>\n> Unfortunately, it is not clear from your email what the allegations of\n> fraud/potential irregularities in 1982 land registration are?\n>\n> In order for us to investigate further, please can you provide us with\n> either the full address of the property or the title number concerned.\n>\n> Can you explain /provide full details of what has happened?\n>\n> If the matter has been referred to the Police (please provide police\n> incident number) and advise us, if any legal advice has been taken\n> regarding the matter\n>\n> It is important to note that HM Land Registry can only consider and\n> investigate circumstances in which an alleged fraud relates to actual or\n> planned changes to the register.

I assure you I'm not out to\nwaste your departments or anyone's time. I just finished 22 years in Oath\nin 2024 as a public servant, employed at the Vale of Glamorgan Council,\nunder the Welsh Government. I'm not only bona fine, I left my military\ncareer beforehand - with honours. I truly believe I have the most\nbefitting case, that I understand your department specifically exists to\nhandle.\n\nIs it not PACAC's role to ensure that the *machinery of the state*—the\ncourts, the Land Registry, and planning authorities—operates with\ntransparency and protects the constitutional rights of citizens against\nadministrative abuse? My case relates specifically to *maladministration*\nand *constitutional overreach*: it involves the judicial \"erasure\" of a\n320-year ancestral lineage through the tactical misnaming of Mary Williams\nto \"Mrs. Buckler\", the administrative suppression of a known national\nheritage site (the 1888 Roman find) to facilitate demolition permits, and\nthe suspicious disappearance of public title records from state-run\nlibraries. By focusing on how these public institutions failed to maintain\naccurate records and fair procedures, I am  presenting a case of *systemic\nfailure in public administration*, which is the core reason I\nunderstand your Committee to exist.\n\nI must formally contest the assertion that this matter falls outside the\nCommittee’s remit. While the origin of this case involves a dispute with a\nprivate entity (BP), the core of my grievance concerns *constitutional\nissues* and the *quality of administration provided by government-funded\nbodies*, specifically regarding the protection of national heritage and the\nintegrity of land registration.\n\nI ask the Committee to review this matter under the following three pillars\nof your mandate:\n\n*1. Constitutional Issues: The Erasure of Customary and Indigenous Title* The\n1987 Court of Appeal ruling (*BP Properties Ltd v Buckler*) created a\nsignificant legal precedent regarding \"unilateral licenses\". My family\nasserts that the administration of justice in this case allowed for the\ntactical erasure of the \"Williams\" identity—a lineage with de facto\npossession dating back to 1667—to facilitate a corporate land grab. The use\nof the judicial system to overwrite centuries of documented continuity with\na \"paper title\" is a constitutional matter regarding the rights of citizens\nagainst aggressive corporate-state interests.\n\n*2. Standards of Administration: Suppression of Heritage by Public Bodies*\nThe Committee examines the quality of administration. My investigation\nreveals that:\n\n   -\n\n   *Archaeological Suppression:* Evidence of a Roman soldier was discovered\n   in 1888, providing \"actual notice\" of the site's significance. This was\n   reportedly suppressed or ignored by planning authorities and the\n   Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust (GGAT) to allow for demolition.\n\n   -\n\n   *Misrepresentation in Planning:* The 13th-century Great House Farm was\n   administratively classified as a \"dilapidated utility building\" to bypass\n   heritage protections.\n   -\n\n   *Missing Records:* Vital title evidence and Bute Estate deeds\n   disappeared from the public library system—a failure of public record\n   administration.\n\n\n*3. Accountability of the Land Registry and Parliamentary Oversight* The\nregistration of this land under BP’s title occurred during a period of\ntransition in Welsh land law (c. 1982). If public registries accepted title\nwithout disclosing active disputes or the presence of a known national\nmonument (the Roman/Medieval site), this represents a failure in the\n\"standards of administration\" by the Civil Service. Furthermore, this\nmatter was raised in the House of Commons by MP Ted Rowlands in 1980, yet\nthe administrative failures continued unabated.\n\n*Conclusion* I am not asking the Committee to act as a court of appeal, but\nto investigate the *systemic administrative failures* that allowed a\nhistorically significant site and a family's ancestral rights to be\n\"buried\" through procedural maneuvers and the suppression of evidence.\n\nIf the Committee exists to ensure the Civil Service and constitutional\nframeworks protect the public interest, then the demolition of an\n800-year-old heritage site under a cloud of administrative \"silence\" must\nbe within your purview.\n\n\nI look forward to your reconsidered response.\n\n\nSincerely,\n\n\nSion Buckler\n\nOn Thu, 5 Feb 2026 at 08:40, HOC Public Administration and Constitutional\nAffairs Select Committee <[email redacted]> wrote:\n\n> Dear Sion Buckler,\n>\n>\n>\n> Thank you for contacting the Public Administration and Constitutional\n> Affairs Committee.\n>\n>\n>\n> Unfortunately, this is not a matter within the remit of the Committee.\n>\n>\n>\n> The role of the Committee is to examine constitutional issues; the quality\n> and standards of administration provided by Civil Service departments; and\n> the reports of the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman (PHSO).\n>\n>\n>\n> You can find out more about the work of the Committee here: Public\n> Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee - Summary - Committees\n> - UK Parliament\n> <https://committees.parliament.uk/committee/327/public-administration-and-constitutional-affairs-committee/>\n>\n>\n>\n> Best wishes,\n>\n>\n>\n> Kate\n>\n>\n>\n> *Kate Johal*\n> Second Clerk\n> Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee (PACAC)\n>\n>\n> House of Commons, Palace of Westminster, London [postcode redacted]\n> parliament.uk\n>\n> <https://www.parliament.uk/business/committees/>\n>\n> The House of Commons welcomes feedback.

Son of William Buckler of the landmark legal case BP Vs\nBuckler 1987.\n\nI am at the Welsh settlement in Argentina, attempting to rebuild a replica\nof my families former 800 year old farm here.\n\nOur farm outside Cardiff, which my family occupied since 1667, was where\nMarconi invented radio. It should have been a Grade II listen building. We\nshould have never been forced from it. It should have never been bulldozed\ndown.\n\n\nMy family should have at least been compensated or seen justice. Instead my\nfather's appeal was dismissed. His ECHR request blocked and then he died in\n1991 at age just 41 - my age today.\n\nThere's a number of reasons us indigenous Briton Welsh farmers got forced\nfrom our ancestral birthland of 400 years via force, secrecy/ stealth and\nlicense. When we operated with non of these and remained in honour.\n\n1. Ownership was never determined in a court. Possession was saught but BP\nnever saught clarification on the true owners.\n\nMy nans tried making her case that we were the owners, inspire of our fall\nback legal defence of adverse pissesion.\n\nMy nans audience with the judge in July 1974 was ajourned. Her request for\nan audience with the judge to appeal and make her claim to the land in\nOctober 30th was squashed too, by license letters alledgedly sent by BP\nthat morning, but not received until November 4th. The court stepped back\nin November 1974, alledging the matter was sufficiently de-escelated due to\nBP's license offer. But that was an inadvertent way of ruling in BP's\nfavour without ruling on the matter. So the license offer upheld, my nans\nappeal and claim to land ownership unheard/ blocked yet again.\n\nThe press also appeared around my nan and home after it was leaked our\nfamily solicitor made the appeal to the judge on the 30th October 1974. For\na hearing the next day. Odd coincidence. Where's any of that press\ncoverage? Suppressed? Another odd coincidence. We're they even real press.\nIn any case, real or not, the BP license letters afterwards gave the\nappearance of a retreate by BP, when in actual fact it was forcing a\nlicense, unlawfully and unconditionally onto my one legged, wheelchair\nbound grandmother.\n\nIf ever my nan was silent, it was because the courts, her own solicitor,\nmaybe even husband, and BP were all incrementally deminishing her position.\nHer reason for an amputated legal was a blood clot caused from the stress.\nFurthermore they cut the electric, water, poisoned our river and cows.\n\nThose BP letters of license might have worked with my grandad Frederick\nBuckler. As he did express intent to entertain license offers. But that\nintent, by law, will have died with him in the late 60's. My nan was a\nWilliams. She kept and maintained her maiden name. But the court and press\nand BP would  nevertheless refer to my nan as Mrs Buckler. Since no\nWilliams ever showed intent. Only Frederick Buckler. And so it was\nimportant they force upon my nan the name Buckler, and the narrative the\n\"Buckler's\" expressed intent.\n\nAnd contrary to claims my nan aquiessed and even accepted the license by\nremaining silent, as falsly alleged and ill advised by her solicitor, she\ndid no such thing.\n\n2. I found an article from 1978 showing my nan arranged a petition.\nArranged and open day. And claimed publically \"it's my house\". Our families\nhome since 1667. See attached.\n\nThe press say 'open day' in hyphens, as if to belittle my nans attempts to\nsave our home from possession, demolition and housing development.\n\nSo too, does the judge in the 87 case against my late father, use language\nlike my nan '“Conceived the notion” we held title - suggesting our title\nclaim might be fanciful or ungrounded.\n\nBut recently I have found evidence of the exchange which happened between\nSir Mark Wood and Marquess of Bute as my nan alledged. Whereby we received\ntitle, as it was promised to us in exchange (as agricultural tenants) if we\npermit quarrying to occur on the farmland.\n\nThe deal with us was not honoured. Daniel Thomas is believed to have died\nin 1915. Our title is believed to have been stolen from our home by a house\nguest, not fully known to us. And a copy of the title in our name, stolen\nfrom the public library. Albeit they left the index card.\n\nWhen land registry begun, BP Properties Ltd didn't just race to register in\n1982 (my nan dying age 65 in 1983), despite women in our family living even\nunto 101, but BP and the land registry didn't lodge that the title claim\nwas in dispute as they should have. Nor had they had confirmation by a\ncourt that they were the superior owners. As it was never decided in a\ncourt, it was actually actively avoided as my family held superior title\nand claim which they couldn't challenge. Not by stealing our titles. Not by\ntrying to force, stealth or license.\n\n3. BP should not have been awarded possession of our land in the landmark\nlegal case in 1987. The intent argument was disproven in the appeal my late\nfather filed afterwards. And for reasons I mentioned above. And while the\njudge ruled in BP's favor, citing any rejection my nan made to BP Pensions\nTrust Ltd didn't count, as the claimant and self-proclaimed licensor was BP\nProperties Ltd and the two were separate companies. The same justice\ndismissed my dads appeal citing both companies were effectively the same.\nSo a case of heads they win, tails we lose.\n\nI've tried bringing this up with authorities all my life. And I'm forever\nblocked and ignored, or my enquiries are absorbed and deflected. My family\nwant our justice. And compensation.\n\nI'm a war veteran. Ieft my military career with honours. I finished 22\nyears in Oath. Last 2 employed under the Welsh government (Vale Council)\n2022-24. I am bona fide.\n\nIt's an oborrant situation on British Isles. I've spent most of my adult\nlife abroad because we seem to have just been overrun by extreme\nanti-indigenous leftists, non-indigenous and corporations. It's always\ntotal silence when I bring this matter up. As I've stated, it's so bad I'm\njust rebuilding a replica of my farm at the Welsh settlement in Argentina\nnow. Who care to celebrate the house radio was invented in. And my story\nrights. And me, a living member of this family and whole matter.\n\nIt's evident history is being buried and rewritten by the anti-christian,\nanti-indigenous, anti-welsh Regime occupying British isles. As there's a\nstatute in Cardiff of a radio which expressly won't name the inventor\nMarconi as he was far right. I wonder if that's why a multi generation\nlawfare campaign was waged on my farm and farm where Marconi invented\nradio. Or was it the burials and treasures under our farmland that were\nexhevated in 1994? Or the value of the land overlooking Cardiff bay, which\nwas later sold on to developers.\n\nSomeone even hypothesised that BP and the Brit-ISH/ BritLESS State took\ntheir time with our family so that we would upkeep the farmhouse and\nStewart the land and defend it, until it had reached maturity for value\nextrapolation. Which is plausible all things considered. And would go\nlengths to show you the depth of evil us harvested indigenous Britons are\nfighting.\n\nI am a certified and experienced military commander and leader. And the\nfarm story I've given you here is just one of a long line of unjust events.\nMy house in 40 Lombard Street, Barry was stolen in 2012 in a similar way.\nAnd my 36 day old boy was abducted from my home in Stockeld Park in 2013,\nnever to be seen again. And all that happened since then was failed\nattempts to discredit, frame, kidnap, censor and silence me. So it's like a\ncivil war has been waged on us, which is why I only fly in and our of\nBritain now, like it's another tour of the middle east.\n\nThe danger is real. I keep my daughter and wife off the island now, not\njust my self. I even exported my dog to our place in the Caribbean after I\ncaught an Afghan in my garden in Wales, trying to steal him. One of the 97\nAfghans secretly housed in StAthan, near our 11 home village of Monknash,\nwhich the Government were trying to deny existed.\n\nI hope someone follows up on this story of BP Vs Buckler 1987. And asks all\nthe questions that should have been asked throughout. And to this day.\n\nI won't accept the illegal occupation. At some point as a now counter\nofficer, we Welsh, who are already seeking to decolonise, will need to\nfight back by asserting boundaries upon this trespass. I should not have\nbeen forced off my own ancestral birthland. Out of my own home. Out of my\nson's life. Not as someone in honour and bona fide. As stated I have made\nnew lives in the Caribbean and here in Argentina. But only while justice is\ndelayed back home in Wales. But that delay is now decades. DECADES !! It's\nabsolute insanity.\n\nPlease report !!\nInvestigate.\n\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler\n[phone redacted]"},{"id":"gm-19c275f80403b88b","subject":"Automatic reply: Cais am Ddeiseb ac Ymchwiliad Cyhoeddus: Achos Buckler v BP (1987) a Dinistr Great House Farm, Llandough / Formal Request for Inquiry: The Great House Farm Dispossession (BP vs Buckler)","name":"Automatic reply: Cais am Ddeiseb ac Ymchwiliad Cyhoeddus: Achos Buckler v BP (1987) a Dinistr Great House Farm, Llandough / Formal Request for Inquiry: The Great House Farm Dispossession (BP vs Buckler)","date":"2026-02-04T06:38:13Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19c275f80403b88b.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19c18e247be89104-automatic-reply-cais-am-ddeiseb-ac-ymchwiliad-cyhoeddus-achos-buckler-v-bp-1987-a-dinistr-great-house-farm-llandough-for","scopeTopics":["mp-vale"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["mp-vale"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19c18e247be89104","direction":"received","from":"NARAYAN, Kanishka (MP)","institutions":[{"id":"mp-vale","name":"Member of Parliament (Vale of Glamorgan)"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19c275f80403b88b.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Hello,\n\nThank you for reaching out to me.

Fodd bynnag, yn y\ndyfarniad yr oedd yn ei herio, nododd y barnwr nad oedd ymatebion fy nain i\nBP Pension Trust Ltd yn cyfrif gan mai BP Properties Ltd oedd yr hawlydd,\nac mai cwmnïau ar wahân oeddent. Yn ymarferol, roedd hyn yn arwain at\nsefyllfa “pen y cwmni’n ennill, cynffon y teulu’n colli”.\n\nYn sgil hyn, cafodd fy nhad ei dynnu o’i wely ysbyty, ei garcharu heb\ngyhuddiad, a gosodwyd gorchymyn atal arno i’w atal rhag meddiannu ac\namddiffyn ein fferm 800 oed rhag cael ei dymchwel. Cafodd ei gais i’r Llys\nHawliau Dynol Ewropeaidd ei rwystro cyn iddo farw yn 1991, yn ddim ond 41\noed.\n\nAr y sail hon, rwy’n gofyn yn ffurfiol am *Ddeiseb i sefydlu Ymchwiliad\nCyhoeddus* i’r achos hwn, fel mater o ddwyn tir hanesyddol ac o dorri\nhawliau dynol yng Nghymru.\n\nRwy’n weithiwr proffesiynol ym maes seiber a rhyfela electronig milwrol.\nMae technolegau AI pwerus bellach ar gael i bob un ohonom, ac nid oes\nunrhyw reswm technegol pam na ellid archwilio’r mater hwn yn llawn ac yn\ndrylwyr. Mae’r hyn a ddigwyddodd i’m teulu yn ymddangos fel anghyfiawnder\ndwys, aml-genhedlaethol, ac yn debyg i ffurf ar “lawfare”, lle y trinwyd fy\nnheulu fel llafur di-dâl i gynnal ased tir hyd nes yr oedd yn gyfleus i’w\nariannu. Mae’n arwyddocaol bod bron pob cam yn ein herbyn wedi digwydd ar\nyr eiliad olaf posibl.\n\nCeir honiadau bod sylw sylweddol yn y wasg yn 1974 o blaid fy nain a’n\nteulu, ynghyd â deiseb o tua 1,700 o bobl yn ceisio atal dymchwel y fferm.\nYmhellach, mae’n ymddangos bod CADW wedi methu ag ymyrryd lle dylai’r safle\nfod wedi cael statws Adeilad Rhestredig Gradd II.\n\nNid wyf yn sicr a gofnodwyd erioed yn briodol yn y Gofrestrfa Tir fod y tir\n— a gofrestrwyd gan BP yn 1982 — dan anghydfod. Yn fy nealltwriaeth i,\ncafodd ei drin fel pe na bai mewn anghydfod o gwbl. Nid oes unrhyw lys wedi\npenderfynu’n derfynol mai BP oedd perchnogion cyfreithiol y tir; cafodd\nhynny ei honni yn hytrach na’i brofi.\n\nMae hefyd fater pwysig o hanes diwylliannol. Arhosodd Marconi gyda’n teulu\nyn y fferm wrth iddo ddatblygu radio. Mae cynghorwyr a’r plwyf yn Llandough\nyn gwrthod cydnabod hyn. Rwy’n deall bod Marconi yn cael ei ystyried yn\nwleidyddol eithafol ar y dde, ac, fel y gwelir yn achos y cerflun radio ym\nMae Caerdydd, mae ei rôl hanesyddol yn cael ei hailysgrifennu. Mae’n\nrhesymol tybio bod ein teulu wedi cael ei ddal mewn ymgyrch wleidyddol\nehangach o’r chwith yn erbyn y dde, ac mai am roi llety i Marconi y bu i ni\nwynebu canlyniadau canrif o hyd — problemau nad oedd yn bodoli yn y tair\ncanrif flaenorol yr oeddem wedi byw ar y fferm.\n\nRoedd mam Marconi hefyd yn Jamerson o gwmni wisgi Gwyddelig Jameson.

Nid yw eraill wedi codi’r mater hwn, yn bennaf oherwydd\ntrawma cenhedlaethol.\n\nRwyf wedi profi fy hun. Gadewais fy ngyrfa filwrol gydag anrhydedd, gan\ngwblhau fy llw 22 mlynedd. Cefais fy nghyflogi’n bona fide gan Gyngor Bro\nMorgannwg a Llywodraeth Cymru hyd at 2024. Gwasanaethais mewn rhyfeloedd yn\ny Dwyrain Canol. Fodd bynnag, nid yw’r anghyfiawnder fferm yn fater unigol.\n\nYn 2013, cafodd fy mab 36 diwrnod oed ei gipio, ac nid wyf erioed wedi ei\nweld ers hynny. Cafodd tŷ ei ddwyn oddi arnaf (40 Lombard Street, Y Barri).\nYn 2023, cefais fy ngadael i gysgu mewn pabell tra roedd bron i 100 o\nAfghanistaniaid yn cael eu lletya’n dawel wrth ymyl ein pentref o 11 tŷ,\ntra roedd yn rhaid imi aros yno i ofalu am fy nain gan na allai gofalwyr ei\nchyrraedd.\n\nO ganlyniad, rwyf bellach yn byw yn yr hyn a elwir yn Setliad Cymreig yn yr\nAriannin. Rwyf wedi fy nisodli ac wedi fy dadleoli i’r eithaf. Serch hynny,\nrwy’n ddiolchgar fy mod wedi goroesi gyda’m rhyddid, fy mywyd, a’m henw da\nyn gymharol gyfan. Serch hynny, hoffwn fod wedi aros yng Nghymru, fel\nCymro, gyda safon a chynhaliaeth bywyd deg.\n\nMae fy ngwraig a minnau’n amharod i ganiatáu i’n merch hyd yn oed gamu ar\nYnysoedd Prydain o ystyried yr hyn a glywn sy’n digwydd yno. Yn 2024,\nallforiais hyd yn oed fy nghi o Abertawe i’n heiddo yn y Caribî ar ôl i\nunigolyn Afghanistan fod yng ngardd fy nheulu yng Nghymru, gan geisio ei\nddwyn.\n\nGofynnaf i’r Senedd gymryd y mater hwn o ddifrif, ac ystyried sefydlu\nYmchwiliad Cyhoeddus llawn, tryloyw ac annibynnol. Nid er budd fy nheulu yn\nunig y mae hyn, ond er uniondeb hanes, cyfiawnder tir, a hawliau dynol yng\nNghymru.\n\nYn gywir,\n\n*Sion Hywel Buckler*\n\n*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*\n\nSirs/Ma'am,\n\nI am writing to you regarding a significant historical injustice involving\nmy family, the Bucklers, and the destruction of Great House Farm (an\n800-year-old site of monastic and Marconi history).\n\nFor example, in a 1974 press statement my grandmother said publically 'It's\nmy home'—that directly contradicts the 1987 Court of Appeal ruling that she\nwas 'silent' and accepted of BP license issued in 1974. My dad's appeal for\nthe BP vs Buckler 1987 case also got dismissed on grounds both BP Pension\nTrust Ltd and BP Properties Ltd were effectively the same company. But in\nthe ruling he was appealing, the judge said that my nans replies to BP\nPensions Trust Ltd didn't count as BP Properties Ltd were the claimant, and\nthe two were seperate companies. So it was heads they win, tails we lose.\nMy dad was ripped from his hospital bed, jailed without charge and slapped\nwith a restraining order to keep him from occupying and defending our 800\nyear old farm from being bulldozed down. His ECHR request blocked before he\ndied in 1991 aged just 41.\n\nI am requesting a *Petition for a Public Inquiry* into this case as a\nmatter of historical land theft and human rights violations in Wales.\n\nI'm a military cyber and electronic warfare professional. We all have very\npowerful AI technology at our disposal which can make light work out of all\nof this. My family suffered an incredible injustice. It also appears to be\nmulti-generational warfare/ lawfare. Whereby we were treated as free labour\nto upkeep the asset of the land and property until it was ripe to be cashed\nin. I say this as every action against us seemed to be last minute.\n\nThere was allegedly press covering the 74 case and supporting my nan and\nfamily and farm. There was a petition of 1700 people trying to defend us\nand the farm from demolishment. CADW looked the other way when it should\nhave been a Grade II listed building. I could go on and on and on.\n\nI'm not even sure the land registry recorded that our land, being\nregistered in 1982 by BP , was in dispute. I believe it was treated as if\nit wasn't dispited. No court actually definitively determined that BP were\nthe landowners. It was just asserted.\n\nMarconi stayed with our family at our farm when inventing radio. The\ncouncillors and parish at Llandough won't even acknowledge this. I\nunderstand Marconi was far right and so, like the radio statute at Cardiff\nBay has confirmed, he is being re-written out of history.  It stands to\nreason that our family was caught in this political campaign of left vs\nright. And for helping Marconi we found ourselves experiencing a century of\nproblems afterwards. Which didn't exist for the 3 centuries we were at our\nfarm before letting far right marconi stay with us. Marconi's mother was\nalso Jamerson of the Irish Whiskey company.\n\nDo your own homework. Make your own enquiries. Draw your own conclusions.\n\n But please do not let history be rewritten here. My family are exploring\noptions for public speaking, story rights, and a documentary etc.\n\nMy grandfather was Ray Smith, of Dempsey and Makepeace. My aunty Shan\nCothi. My uncle started the band tigertailz.\n\nThis is an outrage and my family demands justice for being displaced and\nstolen from, land and property, by the British Establishment/ BP -  with\nlittle to no protections under law. And we're indigenous to the land,\nWelsh, Welsh speaking, Welsh family. Resident in Cardiff / Vale and that\nfarm in Llandough for HUNDREDS OF YEARS.\n\nThere's tens of counts of fraud and concealment from what I can gather.\nWhich means the statute of limitation doesn't apply in this instance. I\nknow some are in favour of Wales decolonising and gaining independence. I\nthink there's no better example of BP vs Buckler 1987 and what has happened\nto my family. Nobody else will bring this up because there's generational\ntrauma. Notwithstanding we, a welsh farming family, are speaking up and\nagainst the British State and BP.\n\nBut I've proven myself. Leaving my military career with honours. Finishing\nmy 22 years Oath, bona fide, employed by the Vale of Glamorgan Council,\nWelsh Government until 2024. I served in the wars in the middle east. I\ndon't know what is going on, on that island. But the farm injustice isn't\nthe only matter. My 36 day old son was abducted in 2013 and I've never seen\nhim since. I had a house stolen (40 Lombard Street, Barry). And in 2023 I\nwas left to sleep in a tent, while almost 100 afghans were secretly housed\nnext to our 11 home village. Where I had to be to care for my grandmother,\nas no carers couldn't reach her. So I'm currently at the Welsh Settlement\nin Argentina. So I'm as displaced and replaced as I can be to cater for the\ninsanity that's going on, on that island. And grateful I've managed to\nsurvive it all with my liberty and life and reputation somewhat still\nintact. But I would have actually liked to have remained in Wales as a\nWelshman. And have some quality and standard of life. My wife and I are\nreluctant for our daughter to even step foot on the British Isles with what\nwe're hearing that's going on there lately. And I even exported my dog from\nSwansea to our place in the Caribbean in 2024 after an afghan was in my\nfamily's garden in Wales, trying to steal him.\n\nI look forward to your reply,\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Hywel Buckler"},{"id":"gm-19c18ddabaa11323","subject":"Cais am Ddeiseb ac Ymchwiliad Cyhoeddus: Achos Buckler v BP (1987) a Dinistr Great House Farm, Llandough / Formal Request for Inquiry: The Great House Farm Dispossession (BP vs Buckler)","name":"Cais am Ddeiseb ac Ymchwiliad Cyhoeddus: Achos Buckler v BP (1987) a Dinistr Great House Farm, Llandough / Formal Request for Inquiry: The Great House Farm Dispossession (BP vs Buckler)","date":"2026-02-01T11:01:45Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19c18ddabaa11323.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19c18bfd989eabaf-cais-am-ddeiseb-ac-ymchwiliad-cyhoeddus-achos-buckler-v-bp-1987-a-dinistr-great-house-farm-llandough-formal-request-for-","scopeTopics":["senedd"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["senedd"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19c18bfd989eabaf","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"senedd","name":"Senedd"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19c18ddabaa11323.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Aelodau Anrhydeddus y Senedd,\n\nRwy’n ysgrifennu atoch i dynnu eich sylw at yr hyn yr wyf yn ei ystyried yn\nanghyfiawnder hanesyddol difrifol, yn ymwneud â’m teulu, y Bucklers, a\ndinistr Great House Farm yn Llandough — safle fferm a chartref o dros 800\nmlynedd o hanes, gan gynnwys cysylltiadau mynachaidd a chysylltiad\nuniongyrchol â Guglielmo Marconi yn ystod datblygiad cynnar radio.\n\nMae’r mater hwn yn codi cwestiynau difrifol ynghylch hawliau tir,\ngweithdrefnau cyfreithiol, cofrestru tir, a hawliau dynol yng Nghymru.\n\nEr enghraifft, mewn datganiad i’r wasg yn 1974, dywedodd fy nain yn\ngyhoeddus: *“It’s my home.”* Mae’r datganiad hwn, sydd yn fater o gofnod\ncyhoeddus, yn gwrth-ddweud yn uniongyrchol ganfyddiad Llys Apêl 1987 yn *BP\nv Buckler*, lle dywedwyd ei bod wedi bod yn “ddistaw” ac wedi derbyn\ntrwydded BP a gyhoeddwyd yn 1974.\n\nYn yr un achos, gwrthodwyd apêl fy nhad ar y sail bod BP Pension Trust Ltd\na BP Properties Ltd yn “effeithiol yr un cwmni”.

My dad's appeal for\nthe BP vs Buckler 1987 case also got dismissed on grounds both BP Pension\nTrust Ltd and BP Properties Ltd were effectively the same company. But in\nthe ruling he was appealing, the judge said that my nans replies to BP\nPensions Trust Ltd didn't count as BP Properties Ltd were the claimant, and\nthe two were seperate companies. So it was heads they win, tails we lose.\nMy dad was ripped from his hospital bed, jailed without charge and slapped\nwith a restraining order to keep him from occupying and defending our 800\nyear old farm from being bulldozed down. His ECHR request blocked before he\ndied in 1991 aged just 41.\n\nI am requesting a *Petition for a Public Inquiry* into this case as a\nmatter of historical land theft and human rights violations in Wales.\n\nI'm a military cyber and electronic warfare professional. We all have very\npowerful AI technology at our disposal which can make light work out of all\nof this. My family suffered an incredible injustice. It also appears to be\nmulti-generational warfare/ lawfare. Whereby we were treated as free labour\nto upkeep the asset of the land and property until it was ripe to be cashed\nin. I say this as every action against us seemed to be last minute.\n\nThere was allegedly press covering the 74 case and supporting my nan and\nfamily and farm. There was a petition of 1700 people trying to defend us\nand the farm from demolishment. CADW looked the other way when it should\nhave been a Grade II listed building. I could go on and on and on.\n\nI'm not even sure the land registry recorded that our land, being\nregistered in 1982 by BP , was in dispute. I believe it was treated as if\nit wasn't dispited. No court actually definitively determined that BP were\nthe landowners. It was just asserted.\n\nMarconi stayed with our family at our farm when inventing radio. The\ncouncillors and parish at Llandough won't even acknowledge this. I\nunderstand Marconi was far right and so, like the radio statute at Cardiff\nBay has confirmed, he is being re-written out of history.  It stands to\nreason that our family was caught in this political campaign of left vs\nright. And for helping Marconi we found ourselves experiencing a century of\nproblems afterwards. Which didn't exist for the 3 centuries we were at our\nfarm before letting far right marconi stay with us. Marconi's mother was\nalso Jamerson of the Irish Whiskey company.\n\nDo your own homework. Make your own enquiries. Draw your own conclusions.\n\n But please do not let history be rewritten here. My family are exploring\noptions for public speaking, story rights, and a documentary etc.\n\nMy grandfather was Ray Smith, of Dempsey and Makepeace. My aunty Shan\nCothi. My uncle started the band tigertailz.\n\nThis is an outrage and my family demands justice for being displaced and\nstolen from, land and property, by the British Establishment/ BP -  with\nlittle to no protections under law. And we're indigenous to the land,\nWelsh, Welsh speaking, Welsh family. Resident in Cardiff / Vale and that\nfarm in Llandough for HUNDREDS OF YEARS.\n\nThere's tens of counts of fraud and concealment from what I can gather.\nWhich means the statute of limitation doesn't apply in this instance. I\nknow some are in favour of Wales decolonising and gaining independence. I\nthink there's no better example of BP vs Buckler 1987 and what has happened\nto my family. Nobody else will bring this up because there's generational\ntrauma. Notwithstanding we, a welsh farming family, are speaking up and\nagainst the British State and BP.\n\nBut I've proven myself. Leaving my military career with honours. Finishing\nmy 22 years Oath, bona fide, employed by the Vale of Glamorgan Council,\nWelsh Government until 2024. I served in the wars in the middle east. I\ndon't know what is going on, on that island. But the farm injustice isn't\nthe only matter. My 36 day old son was abducted in 2013 and I've never seen\nhim since. I had a house stolen (40 Lombard Street, Barry). And in 2023 I\nwas left to sleep in a tent, while almost 100 afghans were secretly housed\nnext to our 11 home village. Where I had to be to care for my grandmother,\nas no carers couldn't reach her. So I'm currently at the Welsh Settlement\nin Argentina. So I'm as displaced and replaced as I can be to cater for the\ninsanity that's going on, on that island. And grateful I've managed to\nsurvive it all with my liberty and life and reputation somewhat still\nintact. But I would have actually liked to have remained in Wales as a\nWelshman. And have some quality and standard of life. My wife and I are\nreluctant for our daughter to even step foot on the British Isles with what\nwe're hearing that's going on there lately. And I even exported my dog from\nSwansea to our place in the Caribbean in 2024 after an afghan was in my\nfamily's garden in Wales, trying to steal him.\n\nI look forward to your reply,\n\nRegards,\n\nSion Buckler"},{"id":"gm-19c181e18b3a6ad4","subject":"Please update the status of your request - Freedom of Information Request – Administrative Records for BP Properties Ltd v Buckler (1974)","name":"Please update the status of your request - Freedom of Information Request – Administrative Records for BP Properties Ltd v Buckler (1974)","date":"2026-02-01T07:32:31Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19c181e18b3a6ad4.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19c181e18b3a6ad4-please-update-the-status-of-your-request-freedom-of-information-request-administrative-records-for-bp-properties-ltd-v-b","scopeTopics":["moj"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["moj"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19c181e18b3a6ad4","direction":"received","from":"(name not shown; whatdotheyknow.com)","institutions":[{"id":"moj","name":"Ministry of Justice / HMCTS"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19c181e18b3a6ad4.json","textStatus":"available","text":"To let everyone know, follow this link and then select the appropriate box.\n\nhttps://www.whatdotheyknow.com/profile/sign_in?r=%2Frequest%2Ffreedom_of_information_request_a_2133%23describe_state_form_1\n\nYour request was called 'Freedom of Information Request – Administrative Records for BP Properties Ltd v Buckler (1974)'.

My purpose is\nsolely to provide factual information for consideration, rather than to\nrequest remedial action.\n\nThe matter concerns land formerly known as *Great House Farm, Llandough,\nVale of Glamorgan*, later developed for residential use and historically\nassociated with *BP v Buckler (Court of Appeal, 1987)*.\n\n*Chronology of relevant events (as reflected in public records):*\n\n   -\n\n   *July 1974:* Court proceedings involving my grandmother were adjourned\n   without determination of ownership.\n   -\n\n   *31 October 1974:* A subsequent hearing did not proceed substantively,\n   following correspondence received from BP entities that same day. No\n   judgment on ownership was issued.\n   -\n\n   Throughout this period, my grandmother was not included in dealings\n   concerning the land, while the opposing party continued to assert ownership.\n   -\n\n   *1982:* The land was registered in the name of BP entities, despite\n   unresolved competing claims and no final judicial adjudication.\n   -\n\n   *1983:* My grandmother passed away after the registration, with\n   ownership never conclusively adjudicated.\n   -\n\n   *1987 Court of Appeal:* The record reflects an apparent inconsistency in\n   the treatment of correspondence and corporate entities. Specifically:\n   -\n\n      The court noted that my grandmother had replied to correspondence on\n      31 October, asserting ownership.\n      -\n\n      The reply was treated as directed to the “wrong” corporation (BP\n      Pensions Trust Ltd rather than BP Properties Ltd).\n      -\n\n      In a later appeal by my father, the same judge acknowledged that both\n      BP entities were effectively treated as the same for the purposes of the\n      ruling.\n      -\n\n      These circumstances resulted in the court upholding the opposing\n      party’s registration despite prior correspondence demonstrating an\n      assertion of ownership.\n      -\n\n   Following these proceedings, my father’s application to the *European\n   Court of Human Rights* was blocked.\n   -\n\n   The family home was demolished, preventing re-entry, even for the\n   retrieval of personal belongings.\n   -\n\n   Despite its historical significance and a petition to protect it, the\n   property was not preserved.

I am *not\nmaking allegations of misconduct*, nor requesting investigation.

My nan requested the audience with the\n   judge the day before, with her lawyer. But that got leaked, the press\n   descended on our farm (not that I can find evidence of news articles from\n   said press), and the following morning the two letters from BP arrived to\n   our solicitor, effectively squashing the court hearing and audience with\n   the judge my nan had sought, to make her case of ownership. Her reply to\n   both BP letters (one from BP Pension Trust Ltd and one from BP Properties\n   Ltd), that morning of the 31st of October, was also 'I own the land'.\n   -\n\n   Throughout this period, my grandmother was *excluded from dealings*\n   concerning land we asserted we owned, while the opposing party\ncontinued to *assert\n   ownership*, notwithstanding the absence of a concluded judicial finding.\n   -\n\n   In or around *1982*, the land was registered in BP’s name, despite the\n   earlier proceedings never having resolved the competing claims nor having\n   resulted in findings adverse to my grandmother.\n   -\n\n   My grandmother then died in *1983*, after the registration had taken\n   place, without compensation and without any final adjudication of her claim.\n   -\n\n   In the *1987 appeal*, the Court referred to correspondence as having\n   been replied to (albeit not to the correct corporate entity - which is\n   ultimately why we lost BP vs Buckler 1987), yet in my fathers appeal that\n   followed, whereby he argued that surely BP Pension Trust should have been\n   the claimant not BP Properties, the same judge from the case dismissed the\n   appeal citing that both companies were effectively the same. This is all\n   evidence on the face of the public record of these proceedings.\n   -\n\n   By that stage, and in the absence of a documentary title which had\n   effectively been overtaken by registration, my family was driven to advance\n   arguments in adverse possession as a *fallback position*, which itself\n   should have assured our continued occupancy.\n\nThe cumulative effect was that my family was *displaced*, the land was\ndeveloped, and no compensation was ever paid, despite ownership never\nhaving been conclusively decided in court. Whether intentionally or not,\nthe process operated in a manner where asserted ownership became treated as\nsettled fact.\n\nI am not alleging misconduct, nor am I seeking retrospective remedies from\nthe Authority.

We consistently asserted ownership and, in any event,\n   possession sufficient to ground squatter’s or possessory rights.\n   Our removal was *not voluntary*; it was effected by force and exclusion,\n   not by a final determination of title.\n   5.\n\n   *Subsequent events reinforce the concern*\n   Following the appeal, my father’s application to the European Court of\n   Human Rights was blocked, the farm was demolished preventing re-entry, and\n   he also died thereafter in *1991*.\n   Shortly after his death in 1994, the land was excavated and items of\n   archaeological value were removed, despite prior knowledge of Roman remains\n   on the property (including a Roman soldier previously uncovered within the\n   living structure).\n\nTaken together, these matters raise serious questions as to whether the\n1982 registration accurately reflected the legal position at the time, or\nwhether it relied on assertions and correspondence that had not been\nvalidated by a court and that were later treated inconsistently.\n\nI respectfully request that HM Land Registry review whether:\n\n   -\n\n   The statutory requirements for registration were properly satisfied in\n   1982; and\n   -\n\n   The register may be inaccurate or was obtained by mistake,\n   misrepresentation, or material non-disclosure.\n\nI am able to supply supporting documents, title numbers, correspondence,\nand a concise timeline if required.

The property was maintained as our family home and farm.\n   2.\n\n   *No conclusive determination of title in 1974*\n   Proceedings in July 1974 relating to possession and title were adjourned\n   and never substantively determined. Further proceedings in October 1974\n   were interrupted by correspondence from BP entities offering a purported\n   licence to occupy. As a result, there was no final judicial determination\n   in 1974 establishing BP’s title on the merits.\n   3.\n\n   *Express rejection of the purported licence*\n   My grandmother expressly rejected the licence, stating that the land was\n   hers. This rejection was acknowledged in later proceedings, but as having\n   been communicated to BP Pension Trust Limited, not the claimant in BP Vs\n   Buckler 1987 i.e. BP Properties Ltd.\n   4.\n\n   *Inconsistent treatment of BP corporate identity*\n   Subsequently the rejection was discounted on the basis that it was\n   addressed to BP Pension Trust Limited rather than BP Properties Ltd.\n   However, in dismissing my father’s appeal to that case almost immidiately\n   afterwards, the court and same judge, treated BP Pension Trust Limited and\n   BP Properties Ltd as \"effectively the same entity for substantive\n   purposes\". This inconsistency resulted in the rejection being acknowledged\n   but disregarded when it favoured BP, while corporate equivalence was relied\n   upon to defeat the appeal.\n   5.\n\n   *Forced removal and restraint (not abandonment)*\n   My family did not abandon the property or leave by our own accord, nor\n   did we fully understand what or why this was happening. In 1987, my father\n   and all of us, his dependants, were forcibly removed. Contemporary\n   newspaper reports state that he was also taken from a hospital bed,\n   detained without criminal charge, and made subject to a restraining order\n   preventing him from returning to the farm. He was not even permitted to\n   retrieve personal belongings.\n   6.\n\n   *Demolition following enforced exclusion*\n   While my father was later restrained from returning to occupy or defend\n   our home, the farmhouse was demolished. This enforced exclusion and\n   demolition rendered continued occupation impossible and removed the\n   physical evidence of long-term residence.\n   7.\n\n   *Registration despite occupation and unresolved dispute*\n\n   BP Properties Ltd was registered as proprietor in 1982, at a time when:\n\n\n   - the land was occupied by my family,\n   - ownership was actively disputed,\n   - no court had conclusively determined title, and\n   - cessation of occupation occurred only later through enforcement and\n   restraint, not voluntary departure.\n\nNo notice, restriction, or record of the disputed and occupied interest\nappears to have been entered on the register at first registration.\n\n*Purpose of this correspondence*\n\nI am not seeking to relitigate historic proceedings at this stage. I am\nseeking to ensure that the land register accurately reflects interests and\ndisputes that existed at the time of first registration, and that the\nabsence of abandonment and the circumstances of enforced removal are\nproperly understood.\n\nI respectfully request advice on:\n\n   - the appropriate procedure to apply for a notice or restriction\n   reflecting an omitted interest; and/or\n   - the process for seeking rectification or alteration of the register\n   under the Land Registration legislation applicable at the time.\n\nPlease advise on the relevant forms, evidential requirements, and next\nsteps.\n\nRegards,\n\n\nSion Buckler"},{"id":"gm-19c03adce0cc91d5","subject":"New response to your FOI request - Freedom of Information Request – Administrative Records for BP Properties Ltd v Buckler (1974)","name":"New response to your FOI request - Freedom of Information Request – Administrative Records for BP Properties Ltd v Buckler (1974)","date":"2026-01-28T08:17:27Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19c03adce0cc91d5.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19c035a275e5a494-new-response-to-your-foi-request-freedom-of-information-request-administrative-records-for-bp-properties-ltd-v-buckler-1","scopeTopics":["moj"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["moj"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence);

In reviewing family records and related documents, I have\nuncovered substantial evidence suggesting material inconsistencies in the\nfacts presented during the original 1974 proceedings and the 1987 appeal.\nThese include questions around BP Properties Ltd's title and capacity to\nissue the 1974 unilateral licence at the time it was granted, as the\nunderlying ownership dispute appears to have been adjourned without\nresolution. Additionally, there are indications of procedural\nirregularities, such as the characterization of Mrs. Buckler's responses\n(including her assertion of ownership), inconsistent treatment of corporate\nentities (BP Pension Trust Ltd and BP Properties Ltd), and potential\nunsubstantiated claims regarding public or media involvement that\ninfluenced the case's direction.\n\nThese findings raise concerns under the Limitation Act 1980 s.32 regarding\ndeliberate concealment or fraud, as well as broader issues of procedural\nfairness that could warrant reopening the matter under CPR 52.30 (Taylor v\nLawrence principles).

This is generally much quicker and cheaper than ordering scans remotely.\n\nMany of our digital images are available to download, purchase and licence directly from Coflein.

You will need to contact the site owners directly with your request.\n\nIf you are concerned about the condition of a historic site or ancient monument please contact the Welsh Government’s Historic Environment Service, Cadw or the relevant local authority.  Similarly, if you have a query regarding the statutory status of a historic site or the planning process relating to Listed Buildings or Scheduled Ancient Monuments there is a range of information available on Cadw’s website: Advice & Support | Cadw (gov.wales)<https://cadw.gov.wales/advice-support>\nThe Royal Commission’s primary role is to create, curate and communicate information on the historic environment, we also play a role as consultees in the planning process for the historic environment on the basis of this information.

I am writing to request your assistance in reviewing a historic legal matter involving my family: BP Properties Ltd v Buckler (1987), relating to Great House Farm, Llandough.\n\nMy family lived on, cared for and claimed to own that farm for generations. The events surrounding the 1987 case resulted in the loss of our home and land, and left several members of my family deeply affected. Recent research I have undertaken has revealed significant procedural inconsistencies, historical irregularities, unanswered questions regarding corporate identity, unverified service of key documents, and heritage considerations relating to the site.\n\nI have attached a short report summarising SOME of these issues. I am requesting your help in identifying the appropriate bodies—legal, historical, or governmental—who may be able to independently review the historical record to ensure fairness, accuracy, and transparency.\n\nMy interest is not solely personal; Great House Farm has a heritage significance to Wales, including documented accounts that Guglielmo Marconi stayed there while experimenting with early radio technology. I believe this should form part of our preserved historical record.\n\nBy way of background, I am a veteran and have served both in the Armed Forces and recently with the Vale of Glamorgan Council. My intention is simply to seek clarity, proper review, and justice where appropriate.

The\nevidential threshold I now hold, if correct, would meet the reopening\nconditions described under s.23 of the Limitation Act 1980 – meaning that\nlitigation, rectification and title recovery proceedings may be\nlegitimately initiated.\n\nHowever, before progressing litigation, I wish to formally offer the UK\nGovernment the opportunity to resolve this matter via public law tools\nrather than adversarial reopening. Specifically: I would like to enquire\nwhether an acquiring authority could lawfully consider using compulsory\npurchase powers to acquire the 23 properties that now sit on this former\nfarmland, and transfer title / beneficial ownership back to my family,\nwhere this could be framed as a public interest rectification measure\nrather than a private benefit case.\n\nCould you please:\n\n   - confirm which acquiring authority would be competent jurisdictionally\n   for this scenario,\n   - outline which statutory route would be the correct CPO framework to\n   assess this under, and\n   - confirm any preliminary information requirements you would need from\n   me (title data, timeline, evidential index etc) if this was to be scoped\n   and reviewed.\n\n\nI am willing to provide a full indexed evidence pack for confidential\nreview.\n\nKind regards,\n\nSion Buckler\n[phone redacted]"},{"id":"gm-19a2d116442247c8","subject":"BP vs Buckler 1987 - Documentary","name":"BP vs Buckler 1987 - Documentary","date":"2025-10-28T23:05:04Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-19a2d116442247c8.txt","threadSlug":"gt-19a2cf51f41ad5bf-bp-vs-buckler-1987-documentary","scopeTopics":["itv"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["itv"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-19a2cf51f41ad5bf","direction":"sent","from":"Sion Buckler","institutions":[{"id":"itv","name":"ITV Archive"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-19a2d116442247c8.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Hi,\n\nI'm exploring doing a documentary about legal case BP Vs Buckler 1987.\n\nI'm the son of the defendant, my late dad William Buckler.\n\nMy last employer and source of income, for my last 22 years in Oath, was\nthe Vale of Glamorgan council.\n\nI have a UK company and would like to make a documentary about this case.\nAnd I'm now seeking co-financeers for this project.\n\nPlease email/ call me if you have interest in this project.\n\nThank you.\n\nSion Buckler\nDirector\nDATRO Consortium Ltd\n[phone redacted]"},{"id":"gm-199b31946d71f259","subject":"Confirm your FOI request to Prime Minister&#39;s Office","name":"Confirm your FOI request to Prime Minister&#39;s Office","date":"2025-10-05T06:40:01Z","dateStatus":"email-date-from-original-message","category":"Case correspondence (original email, redacted)","evidenceVersion":"1.0.0","source":"Wayback case-mail API: redacted copy of the original email","sourceUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/mail/gm-199b31946d71f259.txt","threadSlug":"gt-199b31946d71f259-confirm-your-foi-request-to-prime-minister-39-s-office","scopeTopics":["pmo"],"recordType":"correspondence","tags":["pmo"],"sourcePath":null,"classificationNote":"Ingested from the family's Gmail (verified case correspondence); email addresses, phone numbers and private addresses redacted.","threadId":"gt-199b31946d71f259","direction":"received","from":"(name not shown; whatdotheyknow.com)","institutions":[{"id":"pmo","name":"Prime Minister's Office / Cabinet Office"}],"refs":[],"jsonUrl":"https://wayback.bucklerfamily.estate/api/message/gm-199b31946d71f259.json","textStatus":"available","text":"Sion Buckler,\n\nYou just tried to sign up to WhatDoTheyKnow, when you already have an account.
