The papers in this collection were removed after Richard's death from drawers and filing cabinets in his College rooms, and presented to the College by his widow. The arrangement here preserves in broad outline the system adopted in the cabinets, though there has been some tidying in the interests of clarity and to correct obvious misfiling. The wider collection also includes a copy of the dissertation submitted in successful pursuit of a Fellowship at St John's College, 1964, a bound copy of Richard's PhD dissertation, 1965, and a complete paper set of his published papers, all of which are held in the College Library.

RNP represents Richard Nelson Perham, NLP represents Nancy Lane Perham, and SJC represents St John's College, Cambridge throughout this listing.

The collection contains files, correspondence, documents, notebooks, drawings, watercolours, photographs and artefacts relevant to Cedric Price's architectural works and ideas. Particular strengths of the collection are material from his childhood and years at university, and bundles of family correspondence, chiefly from his mother.

This material was kept by Constance Amelia Sharman (née Ginns), who was a close friend of Bates during his teenage years, when his creative efforts were directed towards art and poetry rather than the prose writing which he later made his career. The collection includes sketches, poems, letters and photographs. First editions of some of his books, which he gave to ‘Con’, accompany the collection, and are catalogued on iDiscover.

Certificates and medals, together with material associated with the awards, biographical information, memoirs and obituaries, and some published matter.

The collection consists of correspondence from the 1960s, schoolwork, documentation from Browne's time at St John's College, press cuttings relating to his archaeological career, and small quantities of society-membership information and ephemera.
