From Hellgill to Bridge End cover

A comparative study of the effects of local, regional, and national changes on nine parishes in Britain's Upper Eden Valley during the Victorian period, this book reveals demographic trends among the parishes of Appleby, Brough, and Kirkby Stephen and six surrounding parishes over six censuses.

"Packed with details of local life and written in a style which bowls along... the reader can pick up the book, dip in, and be immediately transported back into the 1800s... Attractive to anyone with roots in North Westmorland" The Cumberland and Westmorland Herald "A work of considerable human interest as the larger, abstract picture is built on the details of everday lives and incidents" The Cumberland Times"
