| In Victorian
times the people of Castle Caereinion parish would nearly all have been
involved in farming or working
on the land in some way. Many of them would have worked on lands
belonging to the Earl of Powis. Compare this graph with those of other parishes in the area. Is the overall trend the same? Why do you think the population declined in the later Victorian period? |
