The Archives have a large collection of [photocopy] wills and church registers dating from the sixteenth century.

For the later periods there are letters, photographs certificates and other family material. A study of World War I provides a comprehensive list of Saddleworth casualties.

Saddleworth Museum is independent and we are reliant on volunteers for a lot of our work. If you want to visit the archive please e-mail us with your enquiry and what you are looking for and we will arrange a time.
