RES-0004 — Book evidence research flywheel

This guide sets out a repeatable cycle for finding, checking, comparing and recording books and related source leads that may illuminate the history of Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), the Cedwyn estate and the surrounding Llandough and Leckwith area. It is designed to test competing explanations, not to make one preferred account appear stronger by repetition.

The method links discovery, source inspection, identity and parcel checks, counter-evidence, publication and task follow-through. The canonical findings register is published at book-research-register.
