Following the reorganisation of the Guildhall Library, most of the archive and manuscript collections and archive services for the City of London are now concentrated at London Metropolitan Archives (LMA) in Clerkenwell, a mile north east of Guildhall Library.
Guildhall Library houses the libraries of the Clockmakers’ Company and the Antiquarian Horological Society … more >>
However Clockmakers’ Company manuscripts and archives (N.B. this listing is taken from pages 33 to 36 of the recently published book “City of London Livery Companies and Related Organisations – A Guide to their Archives in Guildhall Library”), along with all other City of London Livery Company archives, will continue to be housed and consulted at Guildhall Library.
There are also two other similar listings of the Clockmakers’ Company manuscripts and archives, one created in 2007 entitled Livery Company Membership Guide and the other extracted from John Bromley’s “The Clockmakers’ Library”. They both provide much the same information but in marginally different formats, and added notes and guidance which you might find helpful. We will endeavour to simplify these listings in due course.
You can also access archive listings of other Livery Companies.
Catalogues of the Livery Company records held by the City of London have recently been loaded on to the LMA electronic catalogue. You can search online >>
