  • National Sample from the 1851 Census of Great Britain List of Sample Clusters
    NATIONAL SAMPLE FROM THE 1851 CENSUS OF GREAT BRITAIN LIST OF SAMPLE CLUSTERS The listing is arranged in four columns, and is listed in cluster code order, but other orderings are available. The first column gives the county code; this code corresponds with the county code used in the standardised version of the data. An index of the county codes forms Appendix 1 The second column gives the cluster type. These cluster types correspond with the stratification parameter used in sampling and have been listed in Background Paper II. Their definitions are as follows: 11 English category I 'Communities' under 2,000 population 12 Scottish category I 'Communities' under 2,000 population 21 Category IIA and VI 'Towns' and Municipal Boroughs 26 Category IIB Parliamentary Boroughs 31 Category III 'Large non-urban communities' 41 Category IV Residual 'non-urban' areas 51 Category VII Unallocable 'urban' areas 91 Category IX Institutions The third column gives the cluster code numbers. This corresponds to the computing data set name, except that in the computing data set names the code number is preceded by the letters PAR (e.g. PAR0601). The fourth column gives the name of the cluster community. It should be noted that, with the exception of clusters coded 11,12 and 91, the cluster unit is the enumeration district and not the whole community. Clusters coded 11 and 12, however, correspond to total 'communities' (see Background Paper II). Clusters coded 91 comprise twenty successive individuals in every thousand, from a list of all inmates of institutions concatenated into a continuous sampling frame; except that 'families' are not broken, and where the twenty individuals come from more than one institution, each institution forms a separate cluster.

  • Labour Market Briefing Mar 2021
    Labour Market Briefing Mar 2021 Appendix to March 2021 Labour Market Briefing This appendix is a supplement to the standard Labour Market Briefing and contains February’s ward level data for the Claimant Count/Rate and the Universal Credit Count/Rate. The ward data shown in the tables is for 2019 administrative wards. Maps showing the unemployment rate data at different geographic levels and by age and gender are available by using the data explorer on the Cumbria Intelligence Observatory website (https://www.cumbriaobservatory.org.uk/data-catalog-explorer/) Unfortunately similar maps for the broader Universal Credit claimant rate are not available on the site. Important Notes: Claimant Count (Unemployment) – this is a measure of the number of people claiming benefits who are available for and actively seeking employment and is therefore the best measure of labour market conditions. It is a count of JSA claimants (contribution based and income based) plus Universal Credit claimants in the Searching for Work conditionality group. Due to the easing of UC jobsearch conditions during the Covid-19 pandemic, this will include some furloughed/self-employed people who have jobs but are claiming top-up benefits (although most will be counted in the broader UC count rather than the unemployment count). Universal Credit – this is a count of all Universal Credit claimants in any conditionality group, including those not working, not seeking or able to work and those claiming whilst in work, including most of those who are furloughed and claiming top-up benefits. It is therefore most appropriately used as a measure of income deprivation rather than specifically as a labour market measure.

  • The Baptists and the Cumbrian Religious Censuses
    169 THE BAPTISTS AND THE CUMBRIAN RELIGIOUS CENSUSES The following paper deals with the Baptists in the modern county of cumbria, that is since 1974 the former counties of Cumber land and Westmorland, the district known as Lancashire North-of-the-Sands which is cut off from the rest of the parent county by Morecambe Bay, and a small part of the West Riding of Yorkshire (principally Sedbergh and Dent) which comprised a salient into Westmorland on a level with Kendal. Until 1856 the northern half of Cumbria was under the Diocese of Carlisle, last bastion against the Presbyterian Scots, the southern half under the vast rambling Diocese of Chester, with that most reluctantly Cumbrian area known as Alston Moor in the far east under Durham and later Newcastle. The 1856 formation of the new Diocese of Carlisle brought a religious unity (Alston apart) which was not reflected in administrative circles for one hun­ dred and eighteen years, Cumbria being the most north-westerly English county containing within it the Lake District in the centre (roughly half a.million acres) but the outer ring of coast; .dale and moorland amounting to well over twice this amount. In a county not famed for the numbers of religious adherents and where the Established Church ~ailed to make a significant impression, it was not surprising that the Baptists remained one of the smallest of the Dissenting denominations in Cumbria. The great success of the Quakers in parts of Cumbria during the later 17th century was a response on the part of the iso­ lated and stubbornly independent countrymen to a sect fostering their indifference to Church authority (itself a response to Anglican neglect) and determination to ignore secular govern­ ment.

  • AUDEN and M APS Reflecting on the Links Between His Mature Poetry and the Childhood
    PAYSAGE MORALISÉ: AUDEN AND MAPS Reflecting on the links between his mature poetry and the childhood ”private secondary sacred world‘ deriving from his fascination with lead-mining and its Pennine landscapes, Auden recalled ”necessary textbooks on geology and machinery, maps, catalogues, guidebooks, and photographs‘ (CW p. 424), in which his fantasy-life had been grounded before he ever visited the North Pennine moors. When, earlier, he told Geoffrey Grigson that ”My Great Good Place is the part of the Pennines bounded on the S by Swaledale, on the N by the Romans Wall and on the W by the Eden Valley‘ (17/1/50; Berg),1 he offered a quasi-cartographical definition of a locality both physically specific and metaphysically general, whose geographical boundaries were defined as if visualised on a map œ which is, in fact, the only ”place‘ on which they could ever be observed simultaneously. Critical commentary has noticed the significance of maps in Auden‘s poetry and drama; but as well as constituting a thematic continuity in his writing, maps figure more particularly in its hinterland, featuring in some of the importantly formative books he included in his ”Nursery Library‘ or quoted in A Certain World.2. As with that ”lonely‘ schoolboy mapmaker he drolly but self-referentially admonished (EA p. 50), a fascination with maps possibly suggests the ”autistic‘ dimension he later associated with this phase of his life; but there is some evidence that maps continued to be a means by which older Auden evoked his Great Good Place. In view of the emphasis he would place upon this ”sacred‘ landscape and its evolving meanings, such precursive materials have potential interest.

    FINAL DRAFT ALSTON MOOR COMMUNITY PLAN 2019 INTRODUCTION Alston Moor is a small community with big ideas. We are far from any major settlements and our history is one of self-sufficiency by necessity. Over the centuries, the ways in which that is manifested has, of course, changed, as has the demographic of residents, but the factors which contribute to our resilience and community spirit are not so different from those of 300 years ago. Throughout this period, people have moved here and moved away, whether for work or other reasons, and a tradition of welcoming and including new people, of accepting difference, has been important to the strength of the community as it faces changing times and contexts. The purpose of this Community Plan is to provide a collective vision for the future of Alston Moor; a framework to ensure that Alston Moor can continue to be a great place to live and work over the next 5-15 years. We recognise the varying needs of people of different ages, backgrounds and interests, and the intention of the Plan is to enable a good future for everyone here now and those joining us in the coming years. There are significant challenges in the present (particularly after years of austerity and severe cuts to council funding) that are different in detail from those of the past, but not entirely unrelated. Whether we are thinking about housing, transport, communication, jobs, tourism, healthcare, education, social events, sustainable fuel and energy supplies, or anything else, we need to base our plan on today’s realities and think how we want things to work in the future – but these issues are not new to Alston Moor.
