General Index Search        

Searches may be made using single keywords and phases (in double quotes e.g. "long barrow").  Use the usual three operators [and , or, not] between single keywords and phases to limit the range of the search.  If you do not put an "and" or "or" between items then an "and" is automatically assumed. You can also use brackets (.....), to group items e.g. (North or South) and Cerney.

Keywords will match all words containing the keyword, e.g. castle will match   castle, castle-mounds, Newcastle etc.  Where this is a problem you can achieve an exact match (but for one word only) by adding a # to the end of the word, e.g.   castle#   which will only match castle.  Click on volume numbers in the results to view the contents page for that volume. If page numbers in the results have a link you can click on the page numbers to go directly to the title of the article the item refers to.  The title of the article will appear at the very top of your browser window, or in a few cases where more than one item starts on the same page the second or even third title on the page will be the relevant one.
