Scope and content
Letters and documents relating to various political controversies and difficulties in Cambridge in the 1960s. Arranged by FH into 3 numbered sequences, all of which seemingly incomplete. All have brief manuscript annotations by FH, perhaps to mark them for viewing by someone else, or simply for his own benefit. 15/7/1-15/7/9 concern Ray Lyttleton's objection to the erection of the Isaac Newton Telescope on a site at Herstmonceux, Sussex. 15/7/17-15/7/39 concern the establishment of the Institute of Theoretical Astronomy.
