  • U DAB Records of the Association of British Counties 1841-2016
    Hull History Centre: Records of the Association of British Counties U DAB Records of the Association of British Counties 1841-2016 Accession number: 2005/04; 2005/07; 2008/06; 2017/23 Historical Background: The Association of British Counties (ABC) is a society, formed in 1989, dedicated to promoting awareness of the continuing importance of the 86 historic (or traditional) Counties of Great Britain. ABC believes that the Counties are an important part of the culture, geography and heritage of Great Britain. ABC contends that Britain needs a fixed popular geography, one divorced from the ever changing names and areas of local government but, instead, one rooted in history, public understanding and commonly held notions of cultural identity. ABC, therefore, seeks to fully re-establish the use of the Counties as the standard popular geographical reference frame of Britain and to further encourage their use as a basis for social, sporting and cultural activities. Custodial history: Papers of the ABC tend to be kept in the homes of the relevant committee members and officers. Some of the papers in this accession were passed on by Valerie Andrews to Michael Bradford, with the intention of the archive of the ABC being deposited at the University. Description: This collection contains papers from Valerie Andrews, Secretary to the Association of British Counties (ABC) from 1989 onwards, together with papers of Michael Bradford, Chairman of the ABC until c. 2004. Material includes ABC minutes, newsletters, correspondence, official papers and publications, and scrapbooks, as well as subject files relating to local government and British counties, and related press cuttings.
