Worcester Archive Source Project 

The Worcester City Archive contains five hundred years of documents relating to all aspects of Worcester. Between 2008 and 2012 the Heritage Lottery Fund funded dedicated staff to produce an online catalogue, exhibitions and educational resources.

Our project partners were the University of Worcester, Worcester City Council, and the City and County Archaeology Services.
