The broad picture of population change can be followed from census tocensus, but as each census has evolved to reflect and keep up with changesin society, direct comparison does not necessarily provide a good source ofinformation about detailed change over time. Changes in the questions asked, in the categories used to present results, and in geographical boundaries, mean that each census primarily provides a 'cross sectional' picture of the country at the time.
Elements of continuity can nevertheless be found, for example the boundaries of local government areas in England did not change substantially between 1981 and 2001, after wholesale reorganisation in 1974, as referred to above.
This shows the census historical path back to the 1911
Note that, based on the area measurements below, it can be seen that there must have been a boundary change between 1951 and 1961.
No census was taken in 1941 because of the Second World War.
