recently catalogued archives
The following is a selection of material in Canterbury Cathedral Archives, the East Kent Archives Centre and Medway Archives and Local Studies Centre which was catalogued in 2011 and 2012.
At the end of February 2012 Kent County Council withdrew from the partnership with Canterbury Cathedral Archives and the Cathedral Archives now functions independently. The holdings formerly held at the Centre for Kentish Studies and the East Kent Archive Centre have been brought together in the Kent History and Library Centre, which opened on 23 April 2012. Catalogue entries from the KHLC will begin in the next volume.
