Old handwritten minutes have been scanned and published here. In some cases, since the pages were foolscap, a little text may have been lost at the bottom of the page. Since years were not always started on a new page, there may be some overlap between files. The latter part of the last year included here (2003) is typed. In some cases it may appear that minute book page numbers are missing; this is where they were left blank. Page 224/5 had been removed (1955) for an unknown reason. There were no meetings in 1974. The original minutes 1894-2003 together with accounts etc. are now stored at the the North Devon Archives and Local Studies Service in Barnstaple where, by arrangement, they may be viewed.
