Originally part of Pigot & Co's National Commercial Directory 1835

Comprising A Classification Of The Merchants, Bankers, Professional Gentlemen, Manufacturers And Traders And Lists Of The Nobility, Gentry And Clergy. Resident In The Cities, Towns, Seaports, And Principal Villages

This section covers Shropshire & Hereford

The improvements of the present Edition will be found very considerable; the Statistical, Historical, and Antiquarian Notes interspersed throughout the work have been largely increased; indeed, so much new information has been introduced, that the work is more Topographic than it has hitherto been, while the most casual comparison will show that the Alphabetical Lists contain more names, and that the Classified Sections are far more developed, than the same portions of any work yet published for the County. The work is arranged in Alphabetical order, so far as the Parishes in the County are concerned; but a copious Index is given, by means of which the numerous Hamlets and the principal Farm-houses may be easily ascertained.

The original book used for scanning covers the counties of Herefordshire and Shropshire. The total size of the scanned images is more than can be fitted on one CD so the two counties have been published on separate CDs. The Advertisements section of the original book has been included on both publications.
This publication comprises: Indexes; Herefordshire Information; County map; Towns and Villages Directory; Court Directory; Trades Directory; Advertisements.
Some of the scanned pages appear not to be straight. This is a feature of the original book rather than the scanning process. Some page corners appear clipped. This is a result of having to angle the page to compensate for skewed print.
