1911 CENSUS for HAMBRIDGE/WESTPORT VILLAGES 1911 CENSUS for HAMBRIDGE/WESTPORT VILLAGES: Langport Dist 307-2 Enum Dist 8 The Enumerator began his walk through the village at Underhill and visited 132 houses (schedules), Few houses had postal names like today. WESTPORT starts at Schedule 68 on p6. The total population was 537 (243 Males, 294 Females), of whom 224 were under the age of 20 (42%). The school down by the church had 97 pupils. The Male Workforce was 178, of whom 83 were employed on the 9 farms - 50 labourers, 13 horsemen, 5 cowmen, 2 shepherds etc). Hambridge Mills and Brewery (now Chalon Furniture) was in Curry Rivel parish but employed 5 millers/maltsters; 5 carters and 7 other men from Hambridge. There were also 9 carpenters, 3 blacksmiths, 10 gardeners, 4 withy growers and 6 basketmakers. There were 3 pubs, a Post Office, Grocer & Draper, and Fruit Dealer. The Female Workforce was 85 – 43 were shirt machinists and 12 others were buttonholers or collarmakers linked with the shirt factory in Westport. 15 women were in domestic service, 4 were dressmakers, 7 were schoolteachers plus a District Nurse etc. Old Age Pensions of 5/- a week had been introduced by Lloyd George’s Govt in Jan 1909. You had to be 70 years of age to qualify and it was means tested. There were 16 recipients in this census. The number of people actually born in the two villages was 270 out of 537 (50%). Two new features of the 1911 census were: a record of the number of years of marriage of adults (allowing us to identify their wedding year); a record of child mortality (surviving/deceased numbers). Poor housing conditions and lack of medical support seem to have contributed to 55 child deaths (see below).
