The Society was founded in 1878 to transcribe and publish original documents relating to the two palatine counties. 133 volumes have now been published, making available a wide range of sources, important for any study of North West England. To maintain its aim of publishing a volume each year the Society depends largely on the continuing support of its individual and institutional subscribers. 18 overseas Members receive the appropriate published volumes for which their subscriptions have been paid, and may purchase additional volumes at preferential rates. Prices given are the normal retail price.
Preferential rates are available for members, and booksellers receive the normal trade discount.
The cost of postage and packing are normally added.
