Most studies of poverty and welfare in the late nineteenth century focus on urban areas such as London or on the counties of arable framing in the south and east of England that experienced extensive agricultural depression. This study examines the situation in the prosperous northwestern region in England at that time that depended on animal husbandry. It uses a case study focusing on the three large parishes of Bunbury, Tarvin and Tarporley in mid-Cheshire, using parish magazines, newspapers, and annual reports from a number of organisations.
