I would imagine they would be original documents rather than on film or fiche and arranged by address. You could always ring them, though, to check! |

In my nearest main library, that electoral information is in book form, - one book for each year. |

Just to add to what Gwyn in Kent said. Just because a street was in *Central* ward in one year, it does not necessarily mean it is in the same Ward the following year as the area has expanded. You need to check each index etc. |
