A vision of Britain from 1801 to now.
Including maps, statistical trends and historical descriptions.
This section of GBHDB is currently limited to datasets assembled for an EU-funded project in 2014-15 aimed at estimating the populations of the wards of Great Britain as defined in 2011 for each of the census years 1961, 1971, 1981 and 1991. The tables held here each combines population counts, generally for Wards or Enumeration Districts, with the relevant digital boundaries. The final results are assembled into the ward_2011_gb table.
