What would need to be your personal situation to be working class as opposed to middle class ?

I ask because my of some posts on Errols thread about the death of Margret Thatcher

My G grandfather born 1869 worked as a coal miner but grew his own veg and kept chickens and pigs to supplement his income, anything left over was sold or barted at first through the front room window and later he converted the house in to a shop by 1911 he had 2 shops and built several houses which he rented out, sadly he died in 1913 so still a relatively young man,

I'm sure both him and my grandfather would have not appreciated being called Middle class
