1948-1984

The National Union of Agricultural and Allied Workers was founded in 1906 as the Eastern Counties Agricultural Labourers and Smallholders Union. It changed its name first to the National Agricultural Labourers' and Rural Workers' Union, then to the National Union of Agricultural Workers and then the National Union of Agricultural and Allied Workers. In 1981 it amalgamated with the Transport and General Workers Union

The fifth deposit of records of the National Union of Agricultural and Allied Workers consists of material gathered by Mr R Wynn in connection with his researches for the official history of the union. Most of these were from the union's records, held on loan by Mr Wynn prior to their transfer to the archives. Some other material from branches of the union was added to these records. Some of these records contain annotations made by the historian. The records are mainly of the 1950s and 1960s, comprising minutes of the union's executive committee and various sub-committees, together with some other papers.
