So long as you are using our data for only a small number of units, you are not making money out of what you are doing, and you are not systematically re-publishing our data, you do not need to request permission from us, but you do need to acknowledge us as your source with the wording:

nCube definition


The 1801 Crop Returns simply listed the acreage of a series of named crops. These data simply record computed totals of these acreages for each unit, and should not be treated as unit areas. This is true for parishes, and even more true for counties as many parishes are completely missing.
