Document Copying

Need a copy of a document but unable to reach the archive or record office? Or perhaps the travel cost would be prohibitive? No problem, I can photograph the documents on your behalf.

Please note I am currently only offering this service for archives/record offices/libraries in London. Prices are charged at a daily rate of £200, with a minimum half a day. Whilst there is no charge for travel, the archive’s photography fee is not included in the fees and will be charged in addition to the daily rate.

If you wish to make a document request, please do get in touch for details of timescales as turnaround time depends very much on the repository. You can expect however that visits to the larger sites such as The London Metropolitan Archives, The National Archives, British Library, and the RIBA Library to be carried out more quickly then perhaps the smaller local archives which, for the most part, still need appointments booked in advance.

Finally, also note that you’d be responsible for forwarding the relevant document references in advance of the archive visit. Furthermore, if the images are to be used for commercial purposes, you must seek separate permissions from the relevant institution.
