Gus Tysoe from the Rootsweb Worcestershire email list has very kindly agreed to let us display one of his excellent boundary maps. The date 1839 was chosen as being almost the last time that both the Ecclesiastical and Civil parish boundaries were the same. After 1844 the ecclesiastical boundaries began to diverge, but with the substitution of "St Paul" for "Blockhouse" they can be taken as accurate up to 1862, so please be flexible in your thinking.
One final note is that because of the churches' close proximity to each other many people would attend the church they were comfortable with.
