We present catalogues of faint 1.4‐GHz radio sources from extremely deep Very Large Array pointings in the Lockman Hole, the Hubble Deep Field ‐North (HDF‐N) and the European Large Area ISO Survey (ELAIS) N2 field. Our analysis of the HDF‐N data has produced maps that are significantly deeper than those previously published, and we have used these to search for counterparts to submillimetre sources. For each of the fields, we have derived normalized differential source counts and in the case of the HDF‐N find no evidence for the previously reported underdensity of sources; our counts are entirely consistent with those found for the majority of other fields. The catalogues are available as an online supplement to this paper and the maps are also available for download.
