Woodchester Census from 1851

Reading the census, it is easy to see the domination of the woollen industry in the village - although this was now in its phase of final decline and other small scale maufacturing industries were begining to move in to the mills. (These included tinplate manufacturing and pin making).

Nonetheless, many hand loom workers lived in the village, most of whom were still likely to have worked from home, engaging the whole family in this cottage industry.
It is also interesting to note the large number of heads of households who were born outside of Woodchester, mostly from the surrounding parishes but a number had migrated from some distance, including Basingstoke, Bromsgrove, Taunton and London. The census extract below is taken from the on-line Gloucestershire Census mammothly transcribed by Gordon Beavington.
 

The Woodchester Census is divided in to two section I and II.
