Conder, assistant secretary, and copy replies, 1958-1968, many from Captain H. R. H. Vaughan, including relating to the kite reward scheme; "you will be interested to hear that I have unearthed, pretty nearly literally, Kite correspondence dated way back to 1900 and something", 9 Sept. 1959; the transfer of RSPB's early kite papers to Morrey Salmon, Jan. 1960; the RSPB's purchase of part of the Cawdor estate at Ystrad-ffin, co.

"Three years ago the Countryside Council for Wales decided it could no longer afford to contribute towards the cost of annual monitoring of the Welsh kite population, and in 1995 the RSPB followed suit ... So we set up the WKT in an attempt to replace the funding which was no longer available from CCW and RSPB, for monitoring, protection, research, and public education about kites in Wales" (Peter Davis letter to R. S. Thomas, Jan. 1997). Peter Davis was a trustee of the Welsh Kite Trust, 1996-2012.
