Description:Tithe Maps and Apportionments are invaluable for the history of villages, properties, families, agriculture and landscape in England and Wales in the period 1837 - 1852 . Each piece of land or property has a reference number drawn on the map itself, which is also recorded in the accompanying apportionment or schedule. In the schedule the following details are given: name of landowner and occupier, description of property , acreage and finally amount of rent charge payable. Tithe maps are usually drawn at a large scale of six chains (1 chain = 22 yards) to one inch. Unfortunately the tithe map for the township of Onecote is disappointing, clearly demonstrating that not all land in the township was tithable. Copyright : Lichfield Record Office B/A/15.
