- Disposition
- Excluded by geography/name trap. The 1880 entry sits among the Llanblethian (Cowbridge) entries. The 1915 item may be either Llandough (unconfirmed).
- What it does and does not establish
- Records of a different Great House Farm. They say nothing about Tŷ Mawr near Penarth.
- Next step / retained route
- Check the parish heading before citing any “Great House, Llandough” item.
