The Tŷ Mawr Deaths

A casebook on the timing of the Williams and Buckler deaths at Great House Farm, Llandough, 1855–1990

A detective’s dossier built strictly on records: who died at Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr), Llandough, when, at what age, and what was happening to the land and the proceedings within two years of each death. Seven case files, two timelines side by side, three close coincidences, the conflicting dates, and a full chapter on what cuts against any pattern. Open questions for the reader, never an accusation.
