This collection of Gort Poor Law Union archives consists primarily of Board of Guardians minute books, 91 in total dating from 1842 to 1921, with some gaps. It also includes an Indoor Relief Register (1914-1920) and an indoor relief list (1917-1919), an incoming letter book (1912-1916), a provisions check account (1917-1919), and 24 volumes of rough minutes (1844-1859).
Several of the earlier volumes have suffered severe mould damage, with resultant loss of substantial qualities of text and rendering other sections illegible.
