The 1881 census can be viewed for free on www.familysearch.org. Be aware that there are many transcription errors that I have found so don't give up!

Thanks everyone! I have been accessing the free bmd part of Ancestry but it ask for a subscription for census (then comes up with a blank screen when I want to pay!) I will try the other site you suggest. Thanks again Joanna
