Papers Relative To The Project Of Building A General Record Office by Great Britain. Record Commission. This volume collects documents produced under the auspices of the Board of the Commissioners on Public Records, detailing the long-running effort to establish a General Record Office on the Rolls Estate in Chancery Lane. It comprises memorials, minutes, correspondence with the Treasury and the Surveyor-General, plans and estimates by architect Deering, and the reports of Inglis and Hallam, all concerning the disposition, preservation, and consolidation of the kingdom’s public records. The papers trace debates over moving King’s Bench, Common Pleas, and Exchequer records from Westminster and Somerset House to a centralized repository, evaluate sites and fireproofing, and consider financing via the Suitors’ Fund and private subscriptions. Spanning 1831–1834, the collection documents evolving designs, costs, and legislative steps toward a unified archive intended to improve public access, security, and efficiency in record-keeping.
