First results of the Herstmonceux programme of redetermination of proper motions in the Selected Areas are presented. Plate material includes the old Radcliffe plates, old plates taken at Greenwich and modern plates taken on the 26-in. refractor at Herstmonceux. The plates are being measured on GALAXY and reduced according to the plate-overlap technique.
