Scope and content
This group represents records from the offices of Messrs Riders (later Messrs Rooks, Rider & Co.), the Tredegar estate's London solicitors. The records were deposited at NLW by the British Records Association (BRA) in various 'parcels' between 1969 and 1992: parcel 1537 (deposited 1969, 1975), parcel 1606 (deposited 1970), parcel 1706 (deposited 1970, 1981), parcel 1736 (deposited 1975), parcel 1897 (deposited 1975), parcel 2094 (deposited 1982), parcel 2230 (deposited 1985), parcel 2133 (deposited 1987), and parcel 2389 (deposited 1992). The BRA's parcel numbers form the basis of the reference numbers in this group; within the parcels the arrangement is by bundle, excepting a small number of rentals, ledgers etc. Original bundles have been retained where they existed.
