Abstract

Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner. This small data set includes research material collected from two related projects: 'The Brickendon Lane Estate Mobility Survey, 1965' and the 'Survey of the Wife in the Family, 1964-65'. These were both carried out as part of the activities of the University of Cambridge Extra-Mural Studies Department. The collection includes 30 brief interview notes and 3 completed questionnaires. They can be seen to represent Professor Pahl's initial enquiries into topics given fuller consideration in his later study: 'Managers and Their Wives'. This collection is not currently digitised and is available as a hard copy only. If you are interested in a project which involves the digitisation of this collection, please contact our Collections team at collections@ukdataservice.ac.uk. We'd be delighted to work with you in enhancing this collection.
