Washington Tithes 1840s
Washington History Society
Durham University had put online the 1840s maps and reports of the Tithe Commissioners and Surveyors. This article extracts the maps and reproduces the tables for the five townships in the parish of Washington- Washington, Great Usworth, Little Usworth, Barmston and North Biddick, plus the maps of adjoining areas now part of modern Washington. These were the first accurate maps of Washington when it was still a predominantly agricultural area.
