Monthly Highlight Report — May 2026
Reconstructed report, backdated to month-end: see the backdating rule and carry-forward discipline.
| Measure | Recorded value |
|---|---|
| Reporting period | May 2026 |
| Recorded FOI / EIR / records-access activity | 4 event entries |
| Primary control state | Evidence recovery and verification |
| Project stage | Rolling programme — evidence, title, heritage, accountability, narrative and museum preparation |
1. Plan — month ahead
Escalate unresolved HMLR points to stage two; secure Cadw listing records and images; continue archive discovery; document elected-representative engagement separately from evidence recovery. 🕒
2. Performance — end of month
The period produced material institutional responses from Cadw and HMLR (dated in the table below) but also identified major residual gaps.
3. Issues, Risks, Concerns
Cadw’s missing 1988 file and HMLR’s refusal to rectify remain high-value evidence gaps. A second risk is that public-representative correspondence can become a parallel narrative without changing the underlying documentary record; it must remain a separate support/escalation workstream. 🕒
FOI / records-access timestamps
| Date / time | Matter | Control significance |
|---|---|---|
| 21 May 2026 | Cadw Listed Buildings | Confirmed farm and barn were assessed and rejected for listing in the 1988 survey (details); two photographs released; said the paper file was quite likely destroyed |
| 25 May 2026 | HMLR | Stage-two complaint not upheld |
| 26 May–3 Jun 2026 | Family / HMLR | Clarification requests and contact follow-up |
| 29–31 May 2026 | Office of Stephen Doughty MP | Later office review found no messages from 29 and 31 May; only automatic replies were sent. |
4. Plan Moving Forward / Next Month
Stephen Doughty attribution correction — 7 October 2026. The earlier row “29–31 May 2026 — Stephen Doughty MP — Replies to family correspondence” was inaccurate. The MP’s office said on 5 August 2026 that it could not find the family’s messages of 29 and 31 May, 12 and 25 June or 13 July; only automatic replies were sent. The office did, however, forward HM Land Registry’s Chief Executive’s letter on 18 September 2026. The Wiki’s later correspondence should therefore distinguish family letters from substantive replies by the office.
In June, lodge the formal Cadw ATISN request, continue HMLR clarification and inspection, pursue Ministry of Justice and National Library records where relevant, and use archive catalogue searches to identify primary documents rather than summaries.
