Types of Sources
The Project is in the process identifying, collating and analysing a vast array of material from a variety of sources. In addition to archives including The National Archive and the archive of the Harvard-Sussex Programme we are also conducting interviews with veterans and former employees of Porton Down as well as leading political and military personnel. The Project is interested in hearing from anyone who can contribute to out understanding of the events at Porton Down during the Cold War in an effort to produce a comprehensive and accurate account (we can be contacted via the contact details on the 'Porton Project' page).
A sample of some of the types sources we have identified can be found on this page. | ||||||
