Scope and content

Quarterly returns of royalties due to the Pryse family of Gogerddan as proprietors of the mines and quarries in north Cardiganshire, 1774, 1838-1910. The earliest is for Allt y Crib, 1774. The most substantial of the files relate to Bryn yr Afr, 1881-1908, Cwmbryno and Cefn Cwmbwryno, 1851-1886, Cwmsebon (South Darren), 1854-1891, East Darren, 1852-1897, Esgair Hir and Esgair Fraith, 1854-1907, and Grogwynion, 1850-1887, The decrease in royalties from several of the mines is evident from the 1880s onwards. Some of the files also include covering letters and accounts of lead and copper ore sold, often naming the purchasers and ships.
