Guildhall

The Manuscripts Section acts as the local record office for the City of London (i.e. the Square Mile) and as such holds records relating to persons or organisations that had direct connections with the City. The Section holds all those records of the Society of Royal Cumberland Youths which have been deposited in Guildhall Library [Guildhall Library Ms 21658- 9, 33995-8, 34393].

For full details of these holdings please see our catalogue which is available on the City of London's website at Webopac. You can then search for these items by clicking on the "Author" button from the search menu and typing in the name 'Society of Royal Cumberland Youths'. This will present you with a list of names. Clicking on the required name again will present you with a list of brief descriptions in alphabetical order, with the introductory note for the collection near the top of the list.

Please note that the books in the Guildhall have temporarily been moved to the London Metropolitan Archives. Access to the LMA has to be pre-arranged with at least 48 hours notice. If you wish to access the books then please contact the Honorary Librarian.
