More about this scene
Two miles south east of Rotherham, Whiston was a large village by the end of the Napoleonic Wars. By 1821 the population had passed the 850 mark; the church had both a rector (Rev Richard Lacy) and a curate (Rev Benjamin Birkitt). As well as village constable, blacksmith, and millwright, there was a collector of taxes and a collector of rates. J & W Heward ran a tannery, James White was a maltster and Richard Cutt a linen manufacturer.
