The Society Archive is housed in Dolmynach House, Rhayader.  It is not limited to records of the Society but has a wide collection of other material related to the history of Radnorshire.  Its large collection of documents has, for example, benefited from the donation of unique research material and correspondence of noted historians of the County.  The historic postcard collection spans over 100 years and is notable for the images of landmarks, landscapes and people recording changes over that period.

The extensive photographic collection held by the Society provides a more personal view of Radnorshire life and covers a wide range of topics. Examples of a few of the photographs are shown at the bottom of this page.   These images are all taken from the Watkins collection of photographs.

The creation of a detailed cataloguing of the Archive, its documents, postcards, photographs, pamphlets, leaflets, maps etc, is a significant on-going project of the Society.  The overall objective is to compile a completed catalogue which will be available on this website.

The Society also has a large collection of books. A catalogue  of books can be searched in the Table below. Gobal searchs across all columns can be made in the search box at the top right of the table. Column searches can be done using the boxes at the bottom of the table.

The Archive and Library are normally open on Tuesday mornings.
