The Archive Service cares for parish registers, other church records, wills, electoral registers, maps and plans, poor law records, title deeds, and photographs. The archives of many families, businesses, local authorities, solicitors, societies and schools also help form a fascinating record of all aspects of life in the county. We provide:
Places in our Archive Centres where you can look at arc
hives for yourselves
An education service for local schools, colleges, students and teachers
Information and advice on the preservation and conservation of archives
Facilities for official organisations, churches, businesses and members of the public to donate or deposit archives for safe-keeping
Exhibitions and talks on the work of the Archive Service and archives in our care
