The Monmouthshire town estate was formed in 1919, and originally comprised the Tredegar town leaseholds (from AT 2), together with premises in the parishes of Basaleg (including Rhiwderyn), Bedwas, Bedwellte, Llanfaches, Machen, Mynyddislwyn, Risca, Roggiet, St Brides Wentlloog, St Mellons and St Woolloos that had previously been part of the Monmouthshire estate (see AMA 5/26-27). The Tredegar garden rents appear in the summary accounts only, as a total sum transferred from a separate series of rentals or collection books. The rent income from Tredegar town in 1919 contributed £2,387 to the total Monmouthshire town estate rent income of £8,751. This sum appears in the balance (AMA 6/1, fo. 79) together with the totals of the rents and other sources of income accounted in the Newport rents settled account book for 1919 (ANA 1/43, fo. 225). The Newport rents continue to be audited together with the income arising from the Monmouthshire town estate until 1938 (see AMA 6/11, p. 106). The books for 1939-1943 are missing. The subsequent surviving Monmouthshire town estate rentals, for 1944-1952 (AMA 6/12, 14-15), do not contain details of expenditure and no balance was struck, which is probably why these last three volumes are called rentals rather than audits. A volume of town estate receipts and payments, 1945-1952, which may contain the missing expenditure accounts, has been inclded in this series for convenience (AMA 6/13). -- From 1922 onwards the Tredegar town rents follow Bedwellte. With the exception of St Woolloos, all parishes in the 1919 audit book also appear in the 1952 rental. The St Woolloos rents (and two Basaleg rents) were 'Transferred to Newport dept as from 29 Sept 1930' (AMA 6/6, fo. 164). Premises in Rumney first appear in 1925, and had multiplied considerably by 1952. Caerleon and Coedcernyw make brief appearances (1922-1923 and 1936-1938 respectively) and Magor disappears in 1922, only to reappear in 1952.

The collection books of the post-1802 Monmouthshire estate and the successor Monmouthshire agricultural estate.

Volumes of press-copies of letters sent by agents of the Cardiff estate, 1877-1906 (AGC 3/1-6) and by Henry John Davis, the Glamorgan estate agent, 1899-1903 (AGC 3/7).

The cash books of the Glamorgan estate set out the sums received and disbursed. Individual payments of rent are not specified. -- The earliest cash book (AGH 1/1, intitled 'Glamorgan estate. Ledger') begins with a copy of the audit between Henry John Davis and Sir Charles Morgan for the Glamorgan estate for 1846. The cash book entries begin on 1 July 1847. After a gap, Jan. 1864-Nov. 1868, between AGH 1/1 and 1/3 (probably represented by a missing volume, as AGH 1/3 opens with a balance that had been carried forward), the series of cash books runs through a change of title to 'Glamorganshire farm rents cash books' (AGH 1/3-5, 8) and 'Glamorganshire agricultural estate' (AGH 1/9-13). The last transactions are in Dec. 1938, and in Feb. 1939 the account was closed and the balance transferred to the 'Monmouthshire agricultural a/c'. -- The cash books for 1850-1859 (AGH 1/2), 1900-1908 (AGH 1/6) and 1903-1908 (AGH 1/7) are not part of the main run of Glamorgan cash books, but have been placed here for conveniece. AGH 1/2 appears to relate to Glamorgan. AGH 1/6-7 are the cash books of W. Henney, and are included with the Glamorgan cash books on the strength of a number of rates and tax demands for the parish of Rhydri enclosed in AGH 1/7.
