This archive includes the research notes, photographs, card indexes, negatives and 35mm slides collected by Hugh Murray, a local historian in York. The collection was listed by volunteers from York Civic Trust between 2015 and 2017.

During the course of this listing work, the paper files have been re-arranged into thematic series, however the original order of all other categories of material has been maintained. The remaining items are arranged by format and have been item-level listed in the order they were originally stored.
