References indexed: Cedwyn / Cwm-Cedwyn / Nant-Cedwyn / Ynys-Cedwyn and related forms. Some entries remain placeholders until the primary source is attached or independently verified.
Identity control: these similar spellings are research leads, not proof that every place-name refers to the same holding or to Great House Farm at Llandough-juxta-Penarth. The link to this property must be tested by source provenance, parish, boundary, acreage, named parties, map/plan and continuity. In particular, “Ty Mawr” can mean “large/great house” in Welsh; that translation alone is not evidence of identity.
Primary evidence family — GHF-E173 to GHF-E179
- GHF-E173 — Cedwyn / Cwm-Cedwyn place-name notes — this index and dependency register.
- GHF-E174 — Nant-Cedwyn — reported brook running into the Ely near Leckwith/Llandough. Primary source pending.
- GHF-E175 — Cwm-Cedwyn — reported wooded dell on the Ely between Leckwith and Llandough. Primary source pending.
- GHF-E176 — Ynys-Cedwyn — place-name associated in the research notes with Cedwyn Gawr and the Twrch–Tawe junction. Location and source attribution need verification; not itself proof of the Penarth farm’s lineage.
- GHF-E177 — 1392 Cwm-Cedwyn boundary reference — reported medieval reference in Llandough boundary records. Primary source pending.
- GHF-E178 — 1547 Cydwin lease — reported 1,000-year lease by Sir George Herbert to Vaughan. Primary source and exact land identity pending.
- GHF-E179 — Bute name variants (first read in 1824) — reported use of “Cedfin/Cydfin/Ken fin Farm or Ty Mawr Farm”. Catalogued as an evidence lead; original entries, their dates and parcel identity must be checked before drawing a lineage conclusion.
Other Wiki pages and anchors containing related references
- GHF-E156 — HM Land Registry letter about the registration history of Tŷ Mawr Farm, 23 March 2026 — directly relevant to the modern place-name/registration search. The letter’s wording and the identity of the holding must be read from that evidence page; the title “Tŷ Mawr Farm” alone is not proof it is the Llandough-juxta-Penarth farmhouse.
- Great House Farm (Tŷ Mawr) — present-site identity page; compare against old records only after checking source-specific location identifiers.

- GHF-E166 — Map of Ty Mawr dated 1824 — map evidence; map provenance, parcel extent and its precise connection to the later farm must be assessed.

What the Cedwyn branch can and cannot support
At present, this branch is a place-name and manorial-history research line. It may help identify older names, holdings or boundaries worth comparing to the later farm; it does not yet prove that all the variants were used for the same land, that the family held the farm continuously from a medieval manor, or that any older lease determines the post-1877 title. Those conclusions require the original records and mapped extents.
Evidence rule: cite the dedicated E-page for a source-specific fact. Cite this index only to navigate the name variants. Where the source is not obtained, cite the appropriate E-page as pending rather than presenting the reported detail as an established historical fact.
For the wider Cedwyn Estate working hypothesis, see Cedwyn Estate Working Theory. This page is not, by itself, proof of that hypothesis.
