Plans have been approved for Crewe to be the location of one of two new state-of-the art history centres that will co-host Cheshire’s archives, which record the development of the county and its communities from the Middle Ages to the present day. The centre is currently expected to be open in early 2026.
Cheshire Archives and Local Studies – a shared service of Cheshire East and Cheshire West and Chester Councils – looks after the county’s unique and irreplaceable written and pictorial history and is driving forward a project to rehouse the collections in two new bespoke history centres.
On 15 March 2023, plans were approved for a completely new history centre on the site of Crewe’s former library, next to Memorial Square. On 7 March 2023, plans for a new history centre in Hoole, Chester were approved.
These two centres will replace the Cheshire Record Office, in Chester.
