In response to the increasing interest and awareness of Burford’s rich heritage and thirst for further information, a selection of these works has been gathered together and published under the general title of Burford Papers. The individual subjects are as follows:
- The Burford Device – the impression of the seal of the Corporation of Burford
- Burford: Parish, Manor and Town – a summary of the town’s governance over the ages
- The Great Burford Smallpox Outbreak 1758 – few places were more seriously affected by this endemic scourge than Burford
- The Burford Booke for the Vicaridge Rights – a revealing view of the agriculture from which the Vicar derived most of his income
- The Plymouth Brethren Assembly in Burford – is closely linked to the yeoman farmers, the aristocracy of the sheep-rearing dynasties
- The Tucker Enigma: Pride and Personality in Tudor Burford – as glimpsed from two letters written to Thomas Cromwell in 1538
