Description of the collection
The papers, which cover the years 1936-73, were received from Lady Bawden, from
Rothamsted Experimental Station, and from the Royal Society.
Personal correspondence remains in the possession of Lady Bawden.
Some of Bawden's
correspondence and papers dealing with Rothamsted Experimental Station are held there.
Bawden's close collaboration with scientific colleagues and members of the staff of
Rothamsted is shown in the laboratory notebooks (Section B) and in all sections of the corres-
pondence.
In particular, his collaborative work with N.W. Pirie and A.A.P. Kleczkowski
is kept as a single section (B. 1-38, see notes on pps. 3 to 6).
Dr. Kleczkowski's note-
book (B.38) was received from Miss Helen Kleczkowski (daughter), who retains some personal
papers of her father.
The help of Lady Bawden and Miss Mildred Ashford (Bawden's secretary) is gratefully
acknowledged.
The papers are not yet necessarily all available for consultation.
