About these listings
Within this Archive we use the county listings as defined in 1974, because this fits better with the classification of historic material. However, if you would prefer to view the modern-day equivalent county names you can switch between the two using this button.
Modern counties include local unitary authorities and county names, so bear this in mind when browsing.
