The copy used for scanning is more or less disbound with some of the pages being a little warped and/or skew printed and/or suffering from fading or ink bleed - though all are legible. A small piece has been cut out of the Index to Places at some time and the bottom corner of the preface page has been torn off, removing part of the advertisement printed there. As with many of these directories, the map which originally accompanied it is missing. Otherwise the directory is complete.
In some cases a section begins part way down a page. Where that occurs the page is included in both sections on the CD. The size of the directory is such that we have had to publish it over two CDs. The introductory Advertisement, Preface and Index pages and the Appendix, Errata & List of Council Members from the end of the main directory are included on both CDs. Otherwise the contents are as detailed below.
CD 1 contains the Sheffield Directories and the Advertisement pages.
CD 2 contains the directories for Rotherham, Barnsley, Doncaster, Yorkshire towns & villages, Nottinghamshire towns & villages, Lincolnshire (Gainsborough) and Derbyshire towns & villages.
