| Title: | Home Office: Liquor (LIQ Symbol Series) Files |
| Description: |
Files from the Home Office LIQ (Liquor) series. They deal with Home Office responsibilities for the licensing of the sale of alcohol. |
| Date: | 1949-1996 |
| Arrangement: |
The papers in this series are arranged in numerical order by departmental file number, the sequence repeating for successive transfers. The inclusion of a date preceding a file number (as in LIQ (1960) 1/8/36) indicates that the year in which the file was created was included in the file reference number. Thus, the full departmental reference of a file listed as LIQ (1960) 1/8/36 would be LIQ/60 1/8/36. |
