The Local Studies Centre contains a wealth of documentary material of interest to students of local history and family history relating to Bushey, including

• local census returns from 1841 to 1901
• parish records from St James Church, Bushey and St Peters Church, Bushey Heath
• local trade directories
• local schools records
• local maps

The Centre is open to researchers on Thursday afternoons from 2pm to 5pm. Visitors are asked to telephone the office in advance so that any necessary arrangements can be made. Photocopying facilities are available, for which a charge is made.
Enquiries by post or by e-mail are also welcome. However, researchers are reminded that the Museum is entirely staffed by volunteers, and it may not always be possible to respond immediately.
