This series contains a mixture of official reports, correspondence and personal notebooks, visit books and diaries by inspectors from the Ancient Monuments Inspectorate, and some miscellaneous material.

The notebooks and diaries belonging to two former Chief Inspectors of Ancient Monuments, Bryan Hugh St John O'Neil, 1905-1954, and Paul Kenneth Baillie Reynolds, 1896-1973, mostly record their comments on visits made to ancient monuments in England and Wales.
