Custodial history:
Trafford Area Health Authority was formed in 1974. It boundaries are the same as that of Trafford Metropolitan Borough (formed as a result of local goverment re-organisation at the same time). The Authority was therefore responsible for health service provision in Altrincham and Sale Metroploitan Boroughs, Bowden and Hale Urban Districts part (Carrington, Dunham Massey, Partington and Warburton civil parishes) of Bucklow Rural District in Cheshire and Stretford Municipal Borough and Urmstom Urban District in Lancashire. The records from this health authority are therefore those of predecessor bodies responsible for health care before reorganisation. The records cover the hospitals in the area and the administrative files of the predecessor authority to Trafford Area Health Authority (West Manchester Health Management Committee) formed with the National Health Service in 1948.
