Your dates much more like over here. Lots of ex mill places in the North of the UK and ex-mining in S. Wales. Nearer London the population just keeps growing - many older places that have a decent sized plot get torn down to build 4 or 5 new houses but there are also a few really old places (pre-date the US). Church where I grew up was part Norman circa 1100. Nave rebuilt several times but tower old.
