The notable All Saints church is situated just north of Easthorpe in Appleton-le-Street. It is a Grade I listed Saxon church which escaped "improvement" by the Victorians. [7] The earliest written reference to a church at Appleton is in a charter of King Henry II (1154–1189). It is curiously omitted from the Domesday Book, yet it is beyond dispute that there was a church at that time. The first reference in the register to Appleton is on 20 September 1232 when Stephen de (Eglefeld?) was instituted as first rector. [8] Inside, effigies date from the 13th and 14th centuries and some interior woodwork dates from 1636. [9]
The name Appleton-le-Street means "apple orchard on a Roman road". Easthorpe directly translates to, "east outlying farm or settlement". With east simply translating to eastern, and thorpe directly translating to a secondary settlement and a dependent outlying farm or hamlet. [10]
The pie chart shows that the majority of people worked as labourers and servants, and just under 25% of the population were small farmers not employing labourers, with both masters and skilled workers in urban manufacturing and handicrafts. Then there were around 30 professionals and employers in 1831.
By 1881, the number of professionals had decreased to three people, one male and two females. The majority of men in 1881 still worked in agriculture, whilst the majority of women worked in the 'Unknown Sector'. The men mostly worked in hard labour jobs whilst women worked in more domestic occupations. [11]
The line graph shows that the total number of houses, between around 1831 and 1851, was between 196 and 210 respectively, [12] and the occupancy graph shows that just under 90% were occupied in 1831, which means there were 21 vacant at the time, but that reduced to only nine in 1851. [13]
After 1851, the number of houses declined to only 34 in 1881, and then remained stable until 1961 when the total number of homes is 36. There were no vacant houses in 1881 but then by 1891 only around 75% of the houses were occupied, with eight homes being vacant, until around 1921; then all the houses are occupied again all the way to 1961. [14]
