The Big Booksale at Cheshire Record Office!
We're currently holding a booksale in the public searchroom with
lots of titles for family and local historians. If you're
coming along why not pick up some bargain reading?
Essential plumbing work
From Friday 18 June to Wednesday 11 August, there will
be essential building work carried out on our premises on
Duke Street to upgrade the plumbing. We are confident that
disruption should be kept to a minimum, though there is likely to
be some noise and on occasions document production from particular
strongrooms may not be possible. Please rest assured
that everything is being done to maintain normal service
as far as we can.
