Collection books of the Newport Rents Department and its predecessors. -- Collection books do not usually survive to the same extent as other series of books, as they do not contain anything that was not subsequently copied into the rentals and the ledgers. The surviving Newport estate collection books start later, and have larger gaps, than these other series of books. A ground rent collection book, 1872-1881 (ANA 2/1), and the reserved rent collection book no. 5, 1894-1897 (ANA 2/2), are all that survive from the 19th century. -- The earliest surviving Newport rents department collection books, 1908-1928 (ANA 2/3-18), were originally numbered 10-25, suggesting at least eight lost books. There is then another gap until 1937 (ANA 2/19), by which time the collection books have become annual volumes. The 1941 volume (ANA 2/23) is filled up with Jan.-March 1942, no doubt due to war-time austerity measures. The next volume is much less substantial, and sets the pattern for successive collection books, 1942-1955 (ANA 2/24-36), originally numbered N 1-13. -- On 4 Oct. 1955 a gross rent balance of £1976 16s. 11d. was forwarded from ANA 2/36 to 'Book 14', which is not found, and which may have been transferred to the Eagle Star Insurance Company on the sale of the estate in 1956.

Miscellaneous Newport estate accounts, including Tredegar Wharf Company accounts, 1807-1855, wharfage accounts, 1869-1885, railway tolls, 1880-1893, wages books, 1901-1920, tonnage return ledgers, 1913-1927, cattle market accounts, 1914, and wayleave and hauling accounts, 1919-1942.

Unbound files of audit sheets of the Tredegar Town estate, for the half-years ending Midsummer and Christmas.

Audit books, being the annual accounts of the estate agents, G. P. Mitchell Jones (1911-1918), Leonard Foster Stedman (1919-1937), John Ireland Storrar (1938-1940), with Lord Tredegar (1911-1940) and the executors of Courtenay, viscount Tredegar (1934-1936). For the period 1941-1948, the account is simply headed 'Private account'. The annual account includes accounts of receipts and expenditure relating to Coutts & Co., the Park Mile Railway, subscriptions, donations and pensions, repairs to mansion, park and lands in hand, establishment expences, gardens, hunt stables, carriage stables, deer park and game, kennels, stud farm, and the agricultural show, as well as promiscuous receipts and miscellaneous payments. -- A file of bank statements of Lord Tredegar's private account with the National Provincial Bank, 1951-1960, has been added to this series for convenience.

Daybooks of the cost of materials and labour in repairs carried out by the estate works, generally totalled at the end of each month. The accounts include a reference to the ledger account to which the individual items were assigned in the ledgers in ADY 1, initially mainly Miscellaneous Repairs and Tredegar House Repairs, but also including the accounts of other properties, including Alma Cottage and Craig-yr-haul. In later volumes the reference is reduced to ledger number and folio. A volume covering the period Nov. 1920-Sept. 1925 is missing between between ADY 3/1, 'Day book no. 1', and ADY 3/2, 'Day book 3'. ADY 3/2-3 are stamped 'Tredegar estate works, Rhiwderin'. The series ends with the July 1949 total.
