56 Gleanings from the Wiltshire Domesday. 
in the three hides held in Cuutcue (Chalk) by Girard, 
under the Abbess of Wilton. From an entry in the Test 
de Nev. (141. 157.) it seems clear enough that Guston is a 
contracted form of Girardes-ton, and so the name a 
memorial of its old occupier. W. Domesd. 47. 204. 
LANGLEY The name of the principal tenant at Domesday was 
Burret J Borel, and hence the distinctive name. (W. Domesd. 71. 
222.) The family of Bure? continued to hold the name till 
commencement of the fourteenth century. Aubrey p. 95. 
LANGLEY One of the subordinate tenants of LANGHELE 
Frrz-ursge J (=Kington Langley) at the time of Domesday was . 
Urso. There can be little doubt that in the name called 
Langley Fitz-Urse, we have a memorial of his descend- 
ants. W. Domesd. 32. 221. Aubrey 146. 
LitrLeton This estate is accounted for in Domesday under 
Drew LitTELTONE (p. 27). At that time it was held by one 
Robert, under the Bishop of Coutance. By referring to 
the Devonshire Domesday, we find no less than seventy- 
three estates in that county held under the same Bishop, 
by Drogo (or Dru) Fitz-Ponz. Now this same Drogo 
Fitz-Ponz is entered in the Wilts Domesday (p. 119) as 
the Tenant in Chief of Atprinrone (Alderton) a manor 
immediately adjoining Littleton Drew. Coupling this 
with the fact, that Walter Drw was Lord of the Manor in 
1290 (see Zest de Nev. 142. 158), and that Walter Drew 
(probably the same person) occurs as such, in 1316, in 
the Nomina Villarum, we cannot help the conclusion that 
in this name we have a memorial of a Norman owner or 
occupier. Wilts Arch, Mag., xii., 22. 
RopBouRN The tenant of this estate at the time of Domesday 
CHENEY was Reginald, whose surname, as we learn from an 
entry in the Exon Domesday was Canut. (Exon Domesday 
jf. 163). According to the Test de Nev. (p. 138.) it was 
held in the 13th century by Radulf de Chanu. WW. 
Domesd. 92. Anbrey 147.
