The passage of the 1834 Poor Law Amendment Act created an immense archive of letters, reports and memos from the responsible bodies. Thus Paul Carter's transcription of the Bradford Poor Law Union correspondence is the first regional collection to have been fully transcribed, and from it can be seen the wealth of social and historical detail contained in the papers.
