About The limeworks firm that took the 1877 agreement from the Marquess of Bute over land at Great House Farm.

The limeworks firm that took the 1877 agreement from the Marquess of Bute over land at Great House Farm. The Bute deeds describe “land (33 a.), formerly part of Great House Farm, for the Llandough Limeworks (33 a.), 1876–1912”. Our position is that the 1877 agreement is the start of the farm’s division into two parcels.
