Administrative HistoryOn the privatisation of Britain's railway system, a new body called British Railways Board Residuary was set up. This took over responsibility for selling off land and structures including the railway lines covered by these plans.
Custodial HistoryD6346/1/1 was acquired by Derbyshire Record Office in 2005 and is of unknown provenance. The remainder of the plans (D6346/UL) were passed from British Railways Board Residuary to Highways England (formerly the Highways Agency), which looked after the plans until there was no further business need for them. They were transferred as in June 2015. The records are subject to a statutory Instrument of Presentation and have therefore ceased to be public records.
