The file comprises deeds of a croft in Denbigh purchased in 1784 by John Wynne Griffith from bankrupt William Hughes of Denbigh, of whom his father, John Griffith (3) of Garn, was a major creditor. The area was once the site of houses, which had been set up as a charitable trust in 1736 to benefit the poor of Henllan, but which were derelict by 1768. -- The bundle includes a mortgage of 1729; the assignment in trust to the parish clerk for the benefit of the poor by the mortgagee, Elizabeth Parry of Denbigh, 1736; sale by the officers of the poor to William Hughes, 1768; mortgage of the croft and other properties by William Hughes, 1772; sale by the commissioners of bankruptcy to John Griffith (3), 1783, and subsequent sale to John Wynne Griffith, 1784. [Later, the croft was settled to uses and trusts of a settlement of compromise between J.W.G. and his mother in 1801].

The series contains agendas, minutes and accounts of the trust.
