The archive is held by the Cumbria County Council Archive department, and copies of the drawings can be purchased from them. I had the following email details from the Cumbria CC regarding their web site:- | "We can certainly make copies of the plans for you. Due to their size (generally A0) these would be copied digitally. Our digital copying charges are £40.00 for an A0 copy; £30.00 for A1; £20.00 for A2 and £5.50 for A3. Alternatively, you can purchase a digital camera licence (£5.00 per day) and photograph the plans yourself." | | "Further details about this service are on our web pages at | http://www.cumbria.gov.uk/archives | Please select the link `Research Service' from the left hand side of the home page. It is also possible to view the catalogued part of the DB 40 collection through our on-line catalogue CASCAT; please select the link `Catalogues'." | I have made a complete list, from information received, of all the available drawings known to date, which also includes a very large list of the drawings not yet catalogued on-line, this complete list is attached below in the form of a PDF file, be warned it is very extensive, some 209 pages long. My hope is, that it will be of interest to other members. All the best, Brian Nicholls. I hope this will be of use to both yourself & your enquirer. Regards, I HOPE THIS IS OF HELP TO ANYONE INTERESTED IN THESE ARCHIVES, REGARDS IAN A. |

Very good. Thankyou. I havent been to the Carlisle Records Office for some years but I knew they were doing some work on listing these during the period the place has been closed whilst the new building was under construction. About a year ago I had asked them for an electronic copy and was told such was not available and I would have to visit the archive. I was not offered them by post. ( possibly they were too busy reopening? ) I will now compare them with the inforation I took down and see what is new and what more can be explained. |
