| The parish
of Llangurig covers a huge area of upland as well as the upper Wye. It also
includes Cwm Belan which had a flannel mill
in Victorian times. Compare the graph above with those for Trefeglwys, Carno
and Llandinam. Are the overall trends the same? What was happening in the area in the 1860s which might have caused the population to rise? Why do you think the population declined at the end of the period? |
