Scope and content
Building specifications and estimates for new buildings and repairs to maintain existing properties belonging to the Gogerddan estate, 1766-1921, and numerous bills, receipts and rough accounts, 1766-1896. There is evidence of building or renovation work at Gogerddan mansion, Cwmcynfelyn and Lodge Park, as well as in Glanclettwr and many other local farm houses. This section is a rich source of local information from the mid to late nineteenth century, providing the names of Aberystwyth and Machynlleth tradesmen who supplied the building materials, the increasing use of rail freight to transport them, the names of the workmen, and the nature of the structural repairs. Much of the Gogerddan building work in the late nineteenth century was done in accordance with the Improvement of Land Act, under the conditions stipulated by the land loan companies.
