  • A link to the address of the modern District Register Office which currently holds records from the area. (This information is not compliled from official sources and may be subject to error.)

  • Ordnance Survey Grid Reference and Latitude/Longtitude.
  • Ordnance Survey 1:50000 (Landranger) and 1:25000 (Pathfinder, Outdoor Leisure or Explorer)* sheet numbers. For extended areas such as parishes, only the Landranger sheet numbers are given.
