Visiting Devon Heritage Centre is quite straightforward. Details of planning a visit are on our website http://www.devon.gov.uk/index/councildemocracy/record_office/information_dalss/visiting_us/using_the_searchroom.htm#reg_as_searcher
Under registering as a searcher are details of obtaining a reader's tickets and proof of identity requirements. Visitors from overseas can book in as daily users if they have no ID with an address on it but the address does not have to be a UK address so a driving licence would be acceptable.
We no longer operate the CARN ticket system so that is why we do not accept CARN tickets issued elsewhere, only those issued in Devon or Somerset. We now have our own South West Heritage Trust readers tickets which we can issue to current and new users and these are valid for 4 years and can be used at Devon Heritage Centre, North Devon Record Office and Somerset Heritage Centre in Taunton. We are no longer part of Devon County Council but part of the South West Heritage Trust.
For any enquiries about visits or our records you can email us at our new email address devonarchives@swheritage.org.uk
