INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the web-based version of the
Chronology of the WLM in Britain

The chronology presented here is an updated and expanded version of our original paper-format compilation. Wherever possible, we have tried to link to additional materials available on the Internet, as well as to digital copies of materials available in the archive itself.
The chronology is a living artifact, and will be evolving rapidly over the next year and a half as the Archive undergoes extensive cataloguing and digitalisation. You can bookmark our What's New page and/or join our mailing list to keep up with additions to the site, as well as events at the Archive and in the Yorkshire area. Suggestions, contributions and comments are also always welcome. See our Contact page for further details.
Navigating through the Chronology can easily be accomplished by using the boxes to the left. Alternately, there are 'Previous' and 'Next' options at the bottom of each page. Following these will take you page by page through the entire document. Clicking on the 'Home' box or the 'Never give up' logo will bring you back to the general site index.
A quick browse through the origin and the organisation of the chronology may also be helpful before you begin.
