A volume of documents in support of the claim of Francis James Mathew, 2nd earl of Llandaff in the kingdom of Ireland, to the manor of Llandaff and to messuages and lands in the parishes of Llandaff, Whitchurch otherwise Witchurch, and Canton in Glamorgan.

The volume is labelled on the upper cover:- 'The claim of the Earl of Llandaff to the manor of Llandaff, 1810'.
