The nation's archives

The National Archives was created in April 2003 from the merger of the Public Record Office (PRO) with the Historic Manuscripts Commission (HMC).

After absorbing the Office of Public Sector Information (OPSI) in October 2006, the National Archives now employs some 600 staff and brings together PRO, HMC and OPSI (including HMSO).

The National Archives looks after the records of central government and the law courts. Its records stretch back more than 900 years to the Domesday Book.

The National Archives is based in Kew, near London. The Family Records Office, in central London, which is part of the National Archives, will be transferred

to the Kew site by 2008.
