This work explores the censorship of film at local level and charts the chronological development of local film censorship systems, mechanisms and apparatus. Using archival material from a range of different locations across the UK, a more nuanced and complex picture of local film censorship activity is drawn. -- .

This work scrutinises British film censorship from a local perspective. Examining different regions and areas, the work of individual councils and their relations with one another and with the BBFC, it offers a broad historical exploration of the intricacies of film censorship in action. Drawing on local archival material and considering the activities of local government in enforcing Cinematograph legislation, this work considers the significance of film censorship apparatus and processes in shaping and informing responses to and control of film culture in different locations across the twentieth century. -- .
