What a thorough and huge piece of work, Mel!
I've been dissecting the 1851 one currently and have come across 225 properties. They're listed below in (presumably) the order in which the enumerator noted them down onto the census pages (is that right, Mel?)
The number before each 'district' is the number of households enumerated (including uninhabited houses). It's from this I'm hoping that a route of the enumerator can be divined. Does it look feasible to those of you with more local knowledge than me...?
