Powys Archives Catalogue offline?
« on: Wednesday 03 May 23 06:07 BST (UK) »
I used to be able to search the Powys archives database online. Recently, they changed their website, which is now called StoriPowys. I have tried clicking on the links to the archives in the new website but haven't been able to get through.
Has anyone else had this problem?

It's not just me then. That's too bad. I will try emailing them to see if they are aware it's an issue.
Thanks for confirming, Davedrave.

Yes, it's been good for a while now, thanks sunflower. I think it was just a hiccup in their transition to the new website. The archives catalogue is a good place to search for names of past people and places in Radnorshire. Even if you can't get to the archives to see the actual documents, the index usually shows a date when an event happened.
