Comments:

1	This table is a combination of Table 14 and Table 13 in the county reports. The row and column labels have been taken from Table 14 as the geographically more detailed table. Table 13 has been selectively transcribed to match the information available in Table 14.

Notes:

The following notes to the table appeared in the original report.

1	For definitions, etc., see pp.vii, xvi and xxiv.
2	Private households enumerated on houseboats are omitted from this table.

This website does not try to provide an exact replica of the original printed census tables, which often had thousands of rows and far more columns than will fit on our web pages. Instead, we let you drill down from national totals to the most detailed data available. The column headings are those that appeared in the original printed report. The numbers presented here, which are the same ones we use to create statistical maps and graphs, come from the census table and have usually been carefully checked.

The system can only hold statistics for units listed in our administrative gazetteer, so some rows from the original table may be missing. Sometimes big low-level units, like urban parishes, were divided between more than one higher-level units, like Registration sub-Districts. This is why some pages will give a higher figure for a lower-level unit: it covers the whole of the lower-level unit, not just the part within the current higher-level unit.
