Northamptonshire Archives Service

This is a great place to research your family history, the history of your house, an area of Northamptonshire, or any aspect of life in the county, over the last 800 years.

You can also access information on the county’s archaeological sites, historic buildings and landscapes. You’ll find millions of documents at your disposal, from photographs to documents, papers, maps, plans and volumes. This is countywide service that you could literally spend hours, if not days, absorbed in Northamptonshire’s rich history.
