note = "This article, published in a solid specialist historical journal ,extends the themes first raised in {\textquoteleft}The People of Newcastle{\textquoteright}. It is the first study of its kind and traces the change and decline of North Shields during the nineteenth century from a genteel development to mid-century slums. It explores the relationships between demographic change, changing household structures and housing provision in a {\textquoteleft}new{\textquoteright} town, and was facilitated by the discovery of a surviving manuscript from the 1811 census. This detailed case study is placed in its broader regional perspective. The work has gone on to be used in a recent Cambridge PhD. (Stuart A. Basten, {\textquoteleft}Parish Registers for Nineteenth Century Tyneside{\textquoteright}).",
