GHF-E121 — 1938 Bute–Western Ground Rents conveyance and plan
Source status: FAMILY-HELD — SCAN / PUBLICATION GAP. The Wiki records this conveyance as held by the family, but a scan is not yet embedded on this page. That is a website publication status, not a claim that the deed is missing from the family’s records. The actual deed and plan must be inspected before its legal extent is treated as established.
INFERENCE / PROVISIONAL RECONSTRUCTION — NOT A TRANSCRIPTION OF THE 1938 DEED
The current working reconstruction is that the 1938 instrument conveyed WGR the reversion associated with the earlier agricultural tenancy. The decisive question is what land the deed’s operative wording, schedule and plan actually include. Compare the 1916 tenancy, the 1939 tenancy plan and the Parcel A / Parcel B analysis. Until the source is examined, do not treat this inference as the deed’s actual wording or as final proof of the title boundary.

Source scan not embedded — family-held status recorded. As at 15 October 2026, this page does not display the 1938 conveyance scan. The Wiki records the deed as held by the family; the next step is to scan/link that source, not to describe it as missing. The parcel scope and exact legal effect remain subject to examination of the deed, schedule and plan.

Description
3. What is not known
2. What is known
Catalogue: GHF-E121 · Type: Conveyance of reversion with plan · Date of document: 1938; a “Conveyance on sale dated 25th December 1938” is the root of WGR’s title in the 1965 school-site contract (EV-0216). That it is this Bute–WGR conveyance is likely (press: completion 23 Dec 1938) but the 1965 contract does not name the vendor · Holder: family-held (per this Wiki’s register); scan not yet uploaded · Evidence status: PLACEHOLDER scan awaited
DOCUMENTED FACT. In 1938 the Bute Estate conveyed its reversion on the 1916 tenancy to Western Ground Rents Ltd (1938–39).
- Its exact operative scope and plan. It is not assumed to exclude Parcel A until read, and it is not assumed to include it.
- Whether any instrument in the record conveys Parcel A to WGR. None has been identified; the only WGR tenancy plan seen (DBDT123/7) shows Parcel B only.
- Whether it was available to the family or its advisers in 1984–87.

Interpretation and wider context
UNRESOLVED. If Bute could convey only what it still owned, this document and its plan decide whether WGR ever held Parcel A. 🕒

High-level Cedwyn Estate theory cross-reference: The 1938 Bute–WGR conveyance is a control document for the proposed theory: its operative description and plan must establish whether WGR acquired Parcel B alone, the house/woodland/green, or a different estate. The 1939 tenancy plan is relevant to tenancy extent but is not a substitute for this conveyance. A verified exclusion or inclusion of a particular polygon would be more evidence on that precise question. Read the Cedwyn Estate Working Theory.
