In the front pages of the Inside Cover of, say, the yellow
pages and Thompson directory there is
local information such as:
County Council Info
Places to Visit
Important Nos.
Schools and Colleges
Local History
Local communities
Useful Contacts/Helplines
Area Maps
Getting Around
Local Entertainment
Leisure/Shopping/Food and Drink/Tourism
Further Info Contacts
Basically is there a free (or cheap) way of getting all this local information for every major county/town easily in digital format in one place ie. a CD-ROM/One website.

in terms of ownership and royalties of info?
I'd be grateful if any one can help me out there!!
