Many went out of their way to help us and we are indebted, also, to the many archivists whose words of encouragement spurred us to complete this second edition. Weare particularly grateful to Richard Storey for a constant flow of suggestions and to Alexandra Nicol and lain Flett for similarly helpful suggestions and information for entries. Geoffrey Martin generously gave us his copious review notes which helped to clarify our thoughts for this edition. Elizabeth Bennett, Elizabeth Leedham-Green and Vic Morgan gave invaluable help with the Cambridge college entries and our thanks go also to Adrian Allen, Emma Hall, Patricia Methven, Jack Morrell, Joan Pin combe, Rosemary Seton, David Vaisey, Rowan Watson, Oliver Harris of the British Records Association, and the staff at the National Register of Archives. We are most grateful to the Wellcome Trust and the staff of the Wellcome Institute for the History of Medicine for their continued support. We owe an overwhelming debt to Tracy Tillotson for her ability to decipher the manuscript and apply her word-processing skills to it. Thanks also are due to our colleagues Marion Bowman and Lesley Hall who have shown the utmost patience during many months of feverish activity, to John Davies for advice freely given and to Andy Foley who staunchly helped with technical services. More recently at Macmillan, we were very fortunate to have Caroline Richmond's skilful copy editing of the manuscript and proofs and Stephen Benaim as an efficient production manager. Finally, our thanks go to our many colleagues and friends whose unfailing encouragement made the book possible, in particular to Bill Bynum, J an Fordham, Stevie Holland, Kitty Inglis, Bob Lamb and Bronwen Manning.

VI Introduction The first edition of British Archives was published in 1982 and was given a commendation for the Library Association's McColvin medal in that year. It was reprinted in the year of publication and a paperback edition appeared in 1984. The guide is now out of print and the editors are aware that a new edition is well overdue since it remains the only general reference work describing archives in Britain. Monitoring of the archive scene for changes and additions has been an ongoing process, but work for this edition effectively began in 1986. The opponunity has been taken to make a number of changes to the contents and substantially to enlarge the book, increasing the number of entries by 50%. The original concept of the guide remains - it aims to consolidate information for the historian and archivist and provide a starting point for the first-time user of archives. Archival holdings available for research of all kinds in the UK are among the most rich and extensive in the world. They range over the records of medieval and modern government, both central and local, the archives of the Church and universities, the papers of great dynastic landed families, and collections made from various sources by scholars or antiquarians, collections which often form the basis of the modern national libraries of , and . The wealth and scope of these archives are frequently underestimated and even overlooked because their existence is not generally known about. In addition in the recent past a growing interest has been shown by historians and others in the preservation of a wider range of primary source material. This in turn has led to the rescue of much 19th- and 20th-century archival material, usually on a subject basis, in some cases by recently established specialist repositories. In this guide local authority record offices (county and city record offices), local government libraries, national university and polytechnic libraries, major public and private institutions, societies and associations, including the so-called specialist repositories, have all been included. Archives are not normally arranged or catalogued on a subject basis; for this reason it can be difficult to trace records or collections held in unlikely or lesser-known repositories. Therefore, another primary aim was to give a subject approach to the information in the book by means of a guide to key subjects. A general index to the names of individuals, bodies and collections appearing in the entries provides a further point of access to the information.

What are archives? 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 'anificial' 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.

Vll Vlll Introduction Methods 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 of which we could learn where archives, in the widest sense of the word, are held and are relatively accessible. As with the first edition, restrictions on time and finance made it impossible to visit repositories. Therefore, we have again relied on questionnaires, modified with explanatory 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. After compiling a list of possible new entries from the sources outlined below, approximately 700 'new entry' questionnaires were sent out in batches from late 1986 onwards. The replies were processed over the next eight months. A deadline for return was given and when this had passed without reply a reminder postcard was sent. By April 1987, approximately 75% of the original mailing had responded. A proportion of these had to be telephoned to clarify information or confirm that no archives were held. Those who had not replied were also pursued by telephone and/or sent duplicate forms to elicit information. Where these endeavours did not result in an entry (either because the archives had been deposited elsewhere, no archives were held or no response was forthcoming), the institutions concerned will be found listed in Appendices I-III (pp. 791-6). An asterisk indicates that the entry has been compiled mainly by the editors. From March 1988 those places which had appeared in the first edition were circulated with an annotated copy of their entry and a request for any further updating or additional information. This led to a large number of revisions, including a few deletions and some changes to repository titles and addresses: the most consistent change has been to telephone numbers. All original entries stating 'archives held elsewhere' or 'no archives held' were removed to Appendix I and Appendix II respectively. 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 'A', 'B', and 'C' subsections. (e.g., Entry 174 National Museum of Wales: A Library; B Welsh Folk Museum; C Welsh Industrial and Maritime Museum).

Parent organisation Included if applicable. NB. It is appreciated that this does not strictly apply to the colleges of the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, nevertheless we have included the university under parent organisation so that the reader may easily refer to all parts of the university.

Address Post codes were requested and have been included in the majority of cases.

Telephone Numbers include STD codes and any relevant extensions. However, British Telecom is liable to change codes frequently, so if a number is unobtainable for long periods it is worth checking that the code and/or number are still correct. From May 1990 codes will be 071 for inner London and 081 for outer London.

Enquiries to 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 Introduction IX institutions are normally closed for longer periods over Easter and Christmas. Many smaller places are closed for lunch.

Access Information about persons who may consult the records and whether there are any particular restrictions, i.e., closure periods. It is also indicated whether a prior appointment is necessary (although this is always advisable). A very few repositories charge for access: actual details of charges are liable to change and have not been included. Some local authority record offices operate the County Archives Research Network (CARN) system of issuing readers' tickets.

Historical background Outline administrative history of the organisation, 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 Aims of the collecting policy where applicable and major subject areas of relevance.

Archives of organisation Outline details, including dates if known. Where the formula 'Usual local authority record holdings' has been used for local authority record offices, see fuller description below (p.x).

Major collections Usually covering material acquired by the organisation as a gift or deposit, and naming 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 fuller description below (p.x).

Significant non-manuscript material 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 office. 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, usually specifying availability of repro graphic facilities, e.g., photocopying, photography, microfilm/fiche reader/printer etc. Charges have not been included, neither have reading aids or on-site conservation facilities.

Publications Details 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. x Introduction Where little information is supplied it may indicate that the institution does not routinely handle archives.

Local authority record offices and libraries 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). Also 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, 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 century.

Antiquarian collections: manuscripts, transcripts of documents etc assembled by an individual and usually relating to a specific area.

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 Introduction Xl returns; Ordnance Survey and other maps; postcards and photographs; drawings; newpapers 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 correspondence.

The revised edition Criticisms of the original volume, which often appeared to arise from a misunderstanding of the book's origins and purpose, have been considered. In panicular we addressed the following:

Use of questionnaire Since the book is produced by two working archivists without the benefit of funding or a back-up research team, personal visits to the institutions included were impossible. However, the questionnaire which we sent out was modified in order to clarify the information sought, and the accompanying documents and covering letter were specifically targeted for different types of repository.

Page running heads These now include alphabetical break-downs for major cities with substantial numbers of entries.

Name of repository The editors have exercised their own judgement in determining these and have included a much larger number of cross-references in the principal Alphabetical Listing.

'No archives' entries These have been removed to Appendix II.

Local authority record offices We have expanded the introductory note above on 'usual local authority record holdings' and urged offices to supply details of archives or collections of particular importance.

Major collections This was considered misleading in some instances and for this edition we have introduced the additional heading 'Archives of organisation' to distinguish these from deposited material.

Oxford and Cambridge colleges The editors have made concened efforts to obtain entries from all Oxford and Cambridge colleges, but the number of asterisks (see p. viii) gracing these entries reflects the difficulties experienced in assembling even basic information.

List of entries and indexes Print size has been enlarged to be more easily readable.

Index to collections This has been expanded to cover all sections of the entries if appropriate. In general personal names have been given birth and death dates or otherwise identified.

Guide to key subjects This, as explained in the first edition, was never intended as a comprehensive subject index. However, to facilitate its use we have a) increased the number of subjects and introduced subheadings b) exercised editorial control c) introduced bold type to highlight major holdings.

The present volume, therefore, includes a substantial number of new entries with additional information, more thorough indexing, expanded sections on publications and useful addresses xu Introduction as well as a number of new appendices to facilitate its use. Entries which appeared in the first edition have, in many cases, been provided with more detailed or accurate descriptions of their holdings. Where possible it has been noted if lists are sent to either the NRA or the NRA(s) and the editors have endeavoured to give the list references. A further explanation of the information requested for each entry is given under 'Methods' above.

Sources Our major published sources have been Record Repositories in Great Britain (8/1987); the British Record Association's additional list in Archives, xiv/63 (1980); the Directory of Rare Books and Special Collections (1985); P. Morgan's Oxford Libraries outside the Bodleian: a Guide (2/1980); and Whittaker's Almanack. Other publications which we used will be found in the List of Useful Publications (p.liii). The majority of new entries in this edition have been incorporated by using the reference works quoted above, particularly noting those older established institutions and bodies which might be expected to hold substantial archives or to acquire related papers. Approaches were also made to those organisations whose archives were quoted in published sources, who had recently 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. The National Register of Archives kindly made available to us their location lists to enable us to check those organisations and bodies with reports on their own archive holdings. Also we received help in identifying other repositories from the staff of the Location Register of 20th-century English literary manuscripts and letters at Reading University. Finally, we are indebted to several of our colleagues who kindly drew our attention to possible new entries.

Exclusions As with the first edition we have excluded businesses, which are the specific concern of the Business Archives Council (see p.xlviii), although of course business archives will appear under the holdings of many of the repositories. Privately held collections of estate and family papers have not been extensively covered, although we have included several of the most well-known such collections, especially if an archivist is employed. Further information about these collections is available from the Royal Commission on Historical Manuscripts (see p.li) and in their publications (see p.liii). With c2500 museums in Britain it has not proved possible to cover all those which hold deposited papers as well as maintaining their own archives, and it has not been our policy to do so. It should be noted that a joint working party exists with representatives from the Museums Association, the Society of Archivists and the Association of Independent Museums, which is working for closer liaison between these bodies. The many local history, archaeology, literary and philosophical societies have not been systematically included, both because of the numbers involved and because information about them is normally available from the local authority record office. The latter may indeed hold these archives or have an agreement to administer them on behalf of the society. Borough records also have not been systematically covered: the National Register of Archives (see p.li) holds separ?te lists of these; local authority record offices should be able to advise on their whereabouts if they have not been deposited.

Advice to the user of archives 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 asssume that they are freely available, 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 Introduction Xlll greatly in style and detail; there is no single classification system; 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 cannot be expected everywhere. 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 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 the records will directly answer a ~pecific query; rather it is necessary to understand how and why the records were created before embarking on any research into them. Archivists, being primarily custodians, are not necessarily authorities on all that the records contain, although they will do everything possible to direct the researcher towards the relevant material. If the 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 and the Society of Geneaologists (p.lii) publishes a list of members indicating those who are willing to undertake research. 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. The editors hope that readers using this second edition of British Archives will find it still more helpful than the first. It is also our intention to produce a third edition in due course, and we would therefore welcome any additions or suggestions and invite comments to be sent to us c/o the Wellcome Institute for the History of Medicine, 183 Euston Road, London NWI 2BP. 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 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. 797); for subjects use the Guide to Key Subjects (p.829). But remember there are limitations to both of these and the introductory remarks to them should be read.
