All registers which have been closed are deposited, on loan, in the appropriate Diocesan Record Office.

Stringent conditions for the storage of documents over 100 years old are set out in the Parochial Registers & Records Measure 1978, amended by the Church of England (Miscellaneous Provisions) Measure 1992. The place of storage is inspected by a Diocesan Archivist.
