v Acknowledgements

As always this book would not have been possible without the help and contributions of the many archivists and custodians throughout the country who gave their time to supply us with information. In addition, we are very grateful to the Wellcome Institute for the History of Medicine and the Wellcome Trust for allowing us the use of their facilities and support services. Many colleagues expressed appreciation of the second edition and gave us their encouragement in what, at times, was a daunting task. Those who have been particularly helpful include, as previously, Richard Storey, who supplied endless suggestions for new entries and helped with the Useful Publications section, as did John Davies and Helen Young. The staff at the National Register of Archives were again extremely obliging, especially Dr Rosemary Hayes and Alex Ritchie. Staff in the Contemporary Medical Archives Centre have been very forbearing and we cannot thank them enough. Shirley Dixon, Lesley Hall, Isobel Hunter and jennifer Smith have been staunch supporters throughout. Also Caroline Overy, who kindly checked bibliographical queries for the Useful Publications. It is, however, to Tracy Tillotson that we owe yet again the greatest debt of gratitude for her patience and persistence with the word-processing. Quite simply the book would not have been possible without her. At Macmillan, we were fortunate to work with Grace Evans and Fiona Moffat, whilst Orlando Richards helped enthusiastically in telephoning recalcitrant and forgetful respondents. Again we benefited greatly from the meticulous and sensitive copy-editing of Caroline Richmond. Our families and friends have endured our complaints and sustained us when the labour seemed endless. Henceforth they can look forward to supper on time!

vi Foreword

British Archives was first published in 1982, with a reprint in the same year and a paperback edition in 1984. Since the publication of the second edition in 1989 the book has been recognised as the principal reference work in its field - in fact the only book providing a general guide to archives in Britain. The editors, with the valued assistance of colleagues and friends, have constantly monitored the archival scene in the UK for changes and additions, with substantive work for this new edition having begun in January 1994. Again the opportunity has been taken to expand the number and content of entries. A further 155 entirely new entries are included, although this is not reflected in the total (1109, from 1048 in the second edition) because a significant number of existing entries, principally institutions and local history libraries, indicated that they had transferred their archives to established archive repositories. It is to be hoped that this is an indication of a growing perception of the need for professional care of archives and a higher profile for archivists. Respondents were also actively encouraged to improve their entries with additional information. Local authority record offices in particular were urged to do this, and most responded enthusiastically to this request. The content of each entry has also been expanded by the addition of fax numbers and details of conservation arrangements. Because of the resultant general increase of information, the layout has been changed to a double column format to keep the book to a manageable size and the binding has been strengthened. It is worth noting that many local authority record offices have been moved within the administrative structures of their authorities, often becoming part of a general libraries, museums and archives section. This seems to be a reflection of the emphasis on 'heritage' which has developed in recent years and marks a significant departure from the traditional place of archives as part of the secretariat. Finally, it is appropriate to mention here the possible changes to archive provision which the proposed local government reorganisation may bring. Despite vigorous lobbying by the profession and its supporters, no guarantees have been given about the future of local authority archive services after reorganisation, and the experiences of 1974 show that any changes will by no means be uniform. Users of archives are therefore warned that information in the book about local authority record offices may be superseded by these events.

vii Introduction

Archives: What they are and how to use them Strictly speaking, archives are the documents created in the normal course of the life of an institution or individual in order for them to function, and as such provide a historical record. Thus an archive is a cohesive body of original documents emanating from one source. However, the term is now used much more loosely to cover any primary source material in a variety of media whatever its origin (hence including documents, photographs, films and even printed material). Also it can be used to describe the physical place where records are held. Although the title of this book is British Archives we are taking the wider definition and including 'artificial' collections, so called because they have been consciously put together, usually around a subject area or a type of material, and have not accumulated naturally over the course of time. In many cases archives will remain in the institution that has created them, and increasingly professional archivists are involved in their preservation. Many such bodies, however, have decided that they are neither able satisfactorily to house their older records nor adequately to make them available for historians to consult, hence there is also a steady transfer of such archives to established record repositories. Researchers should bear in mind that consulting archives is not the same as looking up information in a book. Archives are unique: the reader cannot assume that they are freely available or easily accessible, or even that the originals can be consulted. They are never 'loaned', and copies are not necessarily obtainable. Finding aids -lists and indexes -vary greatly in style and detail in spite of recent moves to standardise listing; there is no single classification system, and in some places finding aids or guides may not exist. All this will depend greatly on the type of repository/library the reader visits, and the facilities and services of, for example, a large and well-staffed county record office cannot be expected everywhere. These larger or well-established repositories are actively involved in raising standards within repositories in general to meet the British Standard while the Royal Commission on Historical Manuscripts is in the process of implementing a policy of recognising repositories based upon its own published standard (see Useful Publications, p.lv). It will be obvious from consulting the entries in this guide that some of the archives are administered by librarians, clerks, secretaries, honorary archivists or other individuals whose chief priorities or duties may be elsewhere. Moreover the archives are frequently not stored readily to hand, or may be in use by others or being filmed or repaired. Increasingly, too, certain categories of records, especially in local authority record offices, may only be consulted on microfilm/fiche, and there may be heavy demand for use of the film/fiche reader. For all these reasons it is therefore always advisable to make a prior appointment. Background reading and preparation are also essential if the reader is to grasp the significance of the archives and the types of documentation likely to be encountered. It must be remembered that records were not normally created with the needs of historical research in mind. It is easy to fall into the trap of assuming that records will directly answer a specific query; rather it is necessary to understand how and why they were created before embarking on any research into them. Archivists, being primarily custodians, are not necessarily authorities on all that their holdings contain, although

ix Introduction they will do everything possible to direct the researcher towards the relevant material. If an enquiry is lengthy and a personal visit to the archive is impossible, the services of a professional researcher may be recommended. Some record offices maintain lists of approved professional researchers. See Useful Addresses for relevant organisations and the Society of Genealogists (p.lv).

Methodology British Archives is not a commercial directory and no charge is made for an entry. Inevitably it cannot be comprehensive, since any organisation holding its own non-current records selected for preservation can claim to have an archive. Our approach has been to cover as many places as possible where archives, in the widest sense of the word, are held and are relatively accessible. As with the second edition, restrictions on time and finance made it impossible to visit repositories. Therefore we have again relied on questionnaires, modified with explana• tory notes, which we sent out accompanied by sample entries and a key subject word list. We are indebted to all those who so kindly took the time and trouble to complete and return the questionnaires.

Sources We have drawn on a number of published reference works in order to locate archives, as well as monitoring professional archival publications and historical and other general works where primary sources were quoted. Approaches were also made to organ• isations which had advertised for archivists or whose existence was drawn to our attention by historians and colleagues. In addition a number of organisations requested to be included and the National Register of Archives computerised locations index was checked.

Exclusions Again we have excluded businesses, which are the specific concern of the Business Archives Council (seep. il), although of course business archives will appear under the holdings of many of the repositories. There is also now an increasing number of published guide material to business records, noted in the list of Useful Publications (p. lv). In accordance with this policy a small number of anomalous entries in the second edition, e.g. The Times and the Savoy archives, have been deleted. Public utilities, however, despite privatisation, continue to be included either because their archives remain public records or because of their national importance. Privately held collections of estate and family papers have not been extensively covered, although we have included several of the most well-known collections, especially if an archivist is employed. Further information about these collections is available from the Royal Commission on Historical Manuscripts (see p.liii) and in their forthcoming guide (see Useful Publications, p.lv). No comprehensive coverage of the c2500 museums in Britain has been attempted, although most will have maintained some records of their administration and collections and management and some have accepted collections of archives and manuscripts. National museums and a limited number of other museums are included, however. The many local history, archaeological, literary and philosophical societies have not been systematically listed, both because of the numbers involved and because information about them is normally available from local authority record offices. The latter may indeed hold these archives or have an agreement to administer them on behalf

X Introduction of the societies. Borough records have also not been systematically covered: the National Register of Archives (see p. !iii) holds separate lists of these; local authority record offices should be able to advise on their whereabouts if they have not been deposited. Information collection On the whole we have relied on questionnaires, backed up with telephone calls to clarify queries or to confirm the current situation with those repositories which failed to respond. In January 1994 we started to send out questionnaires and key subject lists for new entries and in the summer of 1994 circulated those institutions with existing entries with their second edition entry, annotated where we considered more information could helpfully be forthcoming. We tried to encourage fuller responses where appropriate, and many organisations took the opportunity to revise their existing entry completely. For the first time information was requested about fax numbers and conservation arrangements. Updating has been a continuous process up to proof stage (May 1995). In some cases it has not been possible to obtain final information prior to going to press. Office addresses, phone and fax numbers and staff are continually changing, and where revised information arrived too late for inclusion we apologise for any inconvenience caused.

The information sought was as follows: Name of repository In some cases related repositories under one parent body have been given the same entry number, with subsections 'A', 'B' etc (e.g., entry 194, National Museum of Wales: A Library; B Welsh Folk Museum; C Welsh Industrial and Maritime Museum). Parent organisation This is included if applicable, although the historical back- ground section may also yield the relevant information. It is appreciated that the colleges of the universities of Oxford and Cambridge do not strictly belong to a parent organisation; nevertheless we have included this category in their entries so that the reader may easily refer to all parts of the university. Address Post codes are comprehensively included in this edition. In a few cases the postal address is different from the address where the archives are stored. Telephone The new telephone codes introduced in April 1995 are given. British Telecom is liable to change codes yet again, so if a number is unobtainable for long periods it is worth checking that the code and/or number are still correct. Fax These numbers have been included where supplied. Enquiries Both title and name were requested but not always given. Qualifications have not been included. A contact address is given if necessary. Open This normally states opening arrangements, i.e., days and hours of opening and any regular annual closures apart from bank and other public holidays. Academic institutions are normally closed for longer periods over Easter and Christmas. Many smaller places are closed for lunch. Access This gives information about persons who may consult the records and whether there are any particular restrictions, e.g., closure periods. Where an appointment is necessary this is also indicated. A very few repositories charge for access: actual details of charges are liable to change and have not been included. Some

xi Introduction

local authority record offices operate the County Archives Research Network (CARN) system of issuing readers' tickets. Historical background Outline administrative history of the organisation is sup- plied, including details of predecessor bodies where appropriate and, if relevant, the development of the repository and/or collections. It is also noted if the repository is a Diocesan Record Office and/or recognised as a place of deposit for public records. Acquisitions policy The aims of the collecting policy and/or major subject areas may be given. Archives of organisation Outline details are provided, including dates if known. Where the formula 'usual local authority record holdings' has been used for local authority record offices, see the fuller description below (p. xiii). Major collections This category usually covers material acquired by the organisation as gifts or on deposit, and names significant collections, with covering dates where possible. This section has been omitted from the entries for certain national repositories whose collections by definition cover all types of archival material and subjects. Where the formula 'deposited local collections' has been used for local authority record offices, see the fuller description below (p. xiii). Non-manuscript material This lists any other materials, e.g., plans, drawings, photographs, maps, sound archives, films, and supporting printed material. Finding aids Unpublished catalogues, lists and indexes etc, available in the offices are mentioned here. In some cases it is stated whether lists are sent to the National Register of Archives (NRA) or the National Register of Archives (Scotland) (NRA(S)), and relevant list reference numbers may be given. Facilities Provisions for readers are given, usually specifying availability of repro- graphic facilities, e.g., photocopying, photography, microfilm/fiche reader/printer etc. Reading aids have not normally been included. Specific charges for services are not given. Conservation This notes where there are in-house facilities for paper conservation or whether work is contracted out, in some cases specifying if outside work is undertaken by the conservation staff. Publications Details are listed of guides or other relevant works about the repository or its holdings which have been published or may be consulted elsewhere.

If any section is not included in an entry, this indicates that no information of relevance was supplied. In some instances where it was impossible or inappropriate to have a full entry, the information was summarised in a brief statement or minimal entry. It will be appreciated that the quality and detail of returns is not consistent. Although editorial persistence achieved a substantial measure of improvement in many cases, the guide is essentially based on information received and there is still considerable variation in the entries. Needless to say, the larger the repository the more general must be its return, and in those cases the value of information about published finding aids should be stressed. Where little information is supplied it may indicate that dealing with their archives is not a routine activity of the institution. The appendices have been completely revised and cover only information acquired since publication of the second edition. As noted above, there has been a continual movement of archives into record offices; the Health Visitors' Association, for example, has placed its archives in the W ellcome Institute (entry 768). These moves are noted in

xii Introduction

Appendix I, as are other transfers of institutional archives of importance. Appendix II lists places which reported holding no archives, and Appendix III lists places which failed either to respond or to supply adequate information for a full entry. An asterisk~· notes those places which indicated that they held archives.

Local authority record offices and libraries Although proposed local government reorganisation may affect provision of archive services, at present it is possible to say that every county in England and Wales has at least one record office maintained by a local government authority. These began to be established formally by county councils in England from the 1930s and in Wales from the 1950s. Until local government reorganisation in 1974 there were no equivalent repositories in Scotland; therefore in Scotland, and to a certain extent in Wales, the responsibility for acquiring and housing archives fell to the respective national libraries. Local authority record offices, that is county, city and some borough record offices, provide a comprehensive record service to the general public, collecting material, official and unofficial, which is of relevance to the history of the locality. Such record offices can be expected to produce a wide range of lists, indexes and catalogues which may also be available at the National Register of Archives. For these reasons the entries for local authority record offices were modified to save endless repetition of similar information. The formulae 'usual local authority record holdings' and 'deposited local collections' have often been used, with additional information when necessary on collections which the offices deemed were of wider significance.

'Usual local authority record holdings' can be described as follows: Local government and related records: archives of the local authorities, which may range from charters of a medieval burgh to recent committee records of an urban district or county council. Quarter session records are also frequently held. Hence all aspects of local government- Poor Law, health, education etc- are likely to be covered.

'Deposited local collections' comprise the following main categories: Ecclesiastical records: these may include parish records (all such records over 100 years old are now held at designated Diocesan Record Offices unless the parish itself provides special storage), as well as tithe, probate and non-conformist records, e.g., the non-current records of Methodists, Baptists and Quakers. Estate and family archives, including manorial records: many of these archives are held, and include leases, deeds, maps and other documents relating to property as well as the personal correspondence and other papers of local families and individuals. Solicitors' and estate agents' papers: including records of former clients' businesses or estates, auction and sale details. Business and industrial records: records of local businesses, manufacturers and branches of national firms, as well as records from small family retail concerns. Such records may include accounts, correspondence, plans, photographs and publicity. Voluntary organisations: records of charitable bodies, local societies, associations, clubs and branches of national bodies, mostly 19th-20th centuries. Antiquarian collections: manuscripts, transcripts of documents etc assembled by an individual and usually relating to a specific area.

xiii Introduction

Public libraries' local history collections may contain a miscellany of items, primarily non-manuscript, consisting (apart from the books) of some or all of the following: census returns; Ordnance Survey and other maps; postcards and photographs; drawings; newspapers and cuttings; details of local functions; material assembled by local historians; ephemera, including programmes, theatre bills, advertising etc. Where manuscript material is held this might include rate books; local business records; papers of local residents and celebrities; written and oral memoirs; journals and correspon• dence.

Finally, users are reminded that this guide is a first step to discovering where to locate archives, since the entries do not comprise every place in the United Kingdom where archives and manuscripts are held. Developments in electronic information and increasing use of the Internet system to gain access to information about archives is likely to improve dramatically in the next few years. The third edition of British Archives will nevertheless, we hope, continue to give an overall view of the archives scattered throughout the country, and the editors trust that a fourth edition will be produced in due course. We would therefore welcome any additions or suggestions and invite comments to be sent to us clo theWellcome Institute for the History of Medicine, 183 Euston Road, London NWl 2BE.

xiv How to Use this Book

The entries are arranged alphabetically by town and running heads of town names are given on each page. London is the area of postal districts only. All listings and indexes refer to entry not page numbers unless specifically indicated otherwise. The Alphabetical Listing (p. xvi) gives references to all sections of the book. The List of Entries by County (p. xxxii) refers to all main entries within each county. If you wish to trace a particular person or named collection, use the Index to Collections (p. 574 ); for subjects use the Guide to Key Subjects (p. 621). But remember there are limitations to both of these and the introductory remarks to them should be read.
