If you post the name of your pension fund, even if it no longer exists, one of us may be able to find which fund took it over.

The company I transferred my pension to was called

if any one knows

Might be worth checking with Aviva on that, The only company I could find with that particular name I could find is the AXA Equity and Law Life Assurance Society. The company merged with Sun Life in 1997 and became part of Friends Life in 2011. Which is now Aviva.

Do you truly not have any paperwork left at all, especially when it involves something so important?

According to this site

Equity & Law pensions are administered by Aviva, and there is a link for enquiries.

The old AXA policies are dealt with out of the Bristol office of Aviva.

Given the date of the transfer, it's quite possible that the relevant records for the receiving scheme could still be held on paper and are somewhere in archived storage. 

What exactly do the documents say?

OP states

Which should surely help in tracing the policy?

It may well have been a S32.

OP, have you obtained  a State Pension Forecast?
