Scope and Content

Prompted in part by the need to discover detailed information on the history of Great Castle House for the right of way dispute (see DGEO/4), Colonel George carried out a considerable amount of research into the history of the House and adjacent properties. In the course of this research, he compiled files of notes and correspondence and collected a number of copies and transcripts. Most relate to Great Castle House and the area immediately surrounding it in Monmouth. He also collected a small amount of historical research material relating to the Regiment, to the militia more widely, and to the Corps of Royal Engineers.
