  • Population Estimates for Wards
    Appendix C: 2011 Census Report 2: Population Estimates for Wards Introduction The 2011 Census was carried out by Office for National Statistics on 23 March 2011. All of the results relate to that date. As such, they do not compare with the mid‐year estimates for 2011 or for any of the previous years. One of the things that the Census has highlighted is the difference between the population on Census data and at the June mid‐year in a university city like Sheffield. Students are counted at their term time address, but by June many final year students have left the city whilst the first year students have not yet moved in. 2011 Census Report 1 summarised the first output from the 2011 Census, which set out the population estimates for local authorities. This report now looks at the population estimates for Sheffield wards, which were released by the Office for National Statistics on 23rd November 2012. Only the population age and sex breakdowns and household counts are published at present. Ethnicity and other data will be published in subsequent releases. (See 6 below on future releases) The report identifies: the changes in ward populations since 2001 the significant differences between the wards and the city averages the population in households and in communal establishments Ward Population Estimates Ward Size Around the time of the 2001 Census, the Boundary Commission were conducting a review of Sheffield’s wards. The review reported just too late for these to become the Census wards, but it did mean that there was not a large variation in population size between the 28 wards.

    The Economic Development of Sheffield and the Growth of the Town cl740-cl820 Neville Flavell PhD The Division of Adult Continuing Education University of Sheffield February 1996 Volume Two PART TWO THE GROWTH OF THE TOWN <2 6 ?- ti.«» *• 3 ^ 268 CHAPTER 14 EXPANSION FROM 1736 IGOSLING) TO 1771 (FAIRBANKS THE TOWN IN 1736 Sheffield in Gosling's 1736 plan was small and relatively compact. Apart from a few dozen houses across the River Dun at Bridgehouses and in the Wicker, and a similar number at Parkhill, the whole of the built-up area was within a 600 yard radius centred on the Old Church.1 Within that brief radius the most northerly development was that at Bower Lane (Gibraltar), and only a limited incursion had been made hitherto into Colson Crofts (the fields between West Bar and the river). On the western and north-western edges there had been development along Hollis Croft and White Croft, and to a lesser degree along Pea Croft and Lambert Knoll (Scotland). To the south-west the building on the western side of Coalpit Lane was over the boundary in Ecclesall, but still a recognisable part of the town.2 To the south the gardens and any buildings were largely confined by the Park wall which kept Alsop Fields free of dwellings except for the ingress along the northern part of Pond Lane. The Rivers Dun and Sheaf formed a natural barrier on the east and north-east, and the low-lying Ponds area to the south-east was not ideal for house construction.
