Biographical history
This series of deeds refer to Bryn y neuadd in Llanfairfechan and Varchwel in Caerhun, which belonged to Humphrey Roberts and his mother, Catherine, and in which Mary Wynne (née Roberts) of Plasnewydd had a life estate under the terms of her marriage settlement of 1751. Following Mary Wynne's death in 1814, the properties appear to have been inherited by her grandson, John Wynne of Garthmeilio.

Scope and content
The file comprises papers relating to Plasnewydd and the property of Mary Wynne, including a rental of her estate, 1783, an abstract of deeds, 1791, valuations, accounts, bills and receipts, 1795-1826, an agreement for the sale of Plasnewydd to Sarah Heaton, 1807, and legal papers concerning administration and debts, 1806, 1814-1843, together with a copy of her will, 1803, and several codicils, 1805-1812. The accounts show general outgoings, and highlight such problems as the shortage of available funds for the education and maintenance of young William Wynne and for paying legacies due to him; one account of 1814 shows total debts of over £30,000 on the estate.
