The village of Jump developed in the 19th century in association with the local industries. The village didn’t exist in 1830 but by the 1861 census had a population of 1000 (Howse 2000 cited in Cumberpatch 2003, 9). Terraced housing is shown within this polygon from 1893 maps with some of the houses not built until 1931 mapping. Previously an area of surveyed enclosures of former commons. The land is marked as enclosed on Jefferys 1775 map so is likely to be part of the 1767 Wombwell enclosure award (date from English 1985). There is fragmentary legibility of the former enclosures in the road layout.
