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.
The Worcester Archive Source Project
will formally end on 31st March, 2012. The Worcester
City Collection is now fully catalogued and available to search in
our online catalogue, which can be accessed via the following link:

Please look out for forthcoming events which celebrate the
Worcester City Collection, to be hosted at our new home in The
Hive, Sawmill Lane, Worcester.
