The two maps are both from 1891 and to the same scale. The one on the left is of an area near Deansgate. The one on the right is of Eaton Road, in Crumpsall.

Deansgate was a commercial district with shops, workers' housing and factories (such as the Alport Works). Crumpsall was a suburb some distance from the city centre where merchants and professionals had their houses.

What do you notice about the size of the houses?

Are there any parks or open fields, schools, churches or pubs?

Cellar 3Is but one room about 12x14. There are two beds in the room. 7 people live & sleep in this one room. We could learn nothing more a little girl only being in charge.

Cellar 5This cellar has 2 rooms 12x14 & 12x12 respectively. The rooms are dark and damp. The approach to the cellar from the street is not more than 2ft 6in wide and the top of the window is rather below the level of the street. The tenant has been in it only a short time but complains of damp, rats, and mice.

Cottage No 13 bed rooms a living room and the front room is used as a shop. The shop is about 12x13, living room 12x9. The bed rooms were described as being no larger. Eleven people live in this house; a man, his wife, 5 children and 4 lodgers.

The census has been held by the government every ten years since 1841. It is a snapshot of the country which aims to include information of every household. This is a transcription of the 1851 Census Return for Jordan Street, Deansgate.

What type of work did the head of the household do? Did the wives go out to work? Did the children go out to work? How old is the

youngest worker? ('Scholar' means that the child was at school)

Who other than the Brown family lived in the house at 3 Jordan Street?

Why do you think they had lodgers living with them? What do you think life was like in the cellar at 3

Jordan Street?
