 S.ixhy. 



07 Domesday assigns 5 carucates here to Henry de 

 Ferrers as appurtenant to Stapleford. 



03 Held by Robert de Todeni in 1086. 



ra This represents the Domesday fief of Robert 

 ' Hostiarius,' which according to that survey com- 

 prised 6 carucates in Long Clawson and 4! in 

 Hose: io carucates as against loj carucates en- 

 tered above. 



10 Domesday assigns I o carucates here to Robert de 

 Todeni. The Croxton Chartulary, however, puts the 

 assessment of Long Clawson at 1 6 carucates and that 

 of Hose at 12, giving a total of 28 carucates for the 

 hundred as against 34^f implied here and 37 T V im- 

 plied by Domesday. 



" Domesday assigns 14 carucates to Henry de 

 Ferrers in Stapleford. 



111 Held by Henry de Ferrers in 1086. 



13 Held, as in Wymondham, by Robert de Buci

HUNDRED OF HARBY 



In the same vill and in Plungar 17 carucates 

 belonging to the fee of William de Albini. 214 In 

 the same vill Richard Basset i carucate. 218 



In STACTHIRN [Stathern] William de Albini

 I carucate and a half. 216 



HUNDRED OF BOTTESFORD 



In the same vill and Muston and Normanton 

 William de Albini 32 carucates. 217 In the same 

 place Agnes de Gaunt 2 carucates. 218 



In MOSTON [Muston] Robert de Insula I caru- 

 cate and a half. 219 



HUNDRED OF CROXTON KERRIAL 



In the same vill the count of Mortain 24 caru- 

 cates. 220 



In HARESTAN [Harston] the same count 

 12 carucates. 221 



14 Plungar is not mentioned by name in Domesday, 

 which however assigns 17 carucates in Harby to 

 Robert de Todeni. 



14 Held by Robert de Buci in 1086. 

 6 The 10 carucates which the present entry assigns 

 to William de Albini and Robert de Insula represent 

 Robert de Todeni's Domesday estate of 9 J carucates in 

 Stathern. On the other hand, Geoffrey de Wirce, 

 Roger de Mowbray's predecessor, held 8J carucates 

 here as against the latter's 8 carucates, so that the total 

 assessment of Stathern is the same in both surveys. It 

 is noteworthy that the holdings of Robert de Todeni 

 and Geoffrey de Wirce in Stathern were held by the 

 same pair of undertenants, William de Boisrohard and 

 an unknown Roger. 



117 In Domesday Robert de Todeni is assigned 

 21 carucates in Bottesford, of which he possessed 

 9 carucates in demesne, the remaining 12 carucates 

 being parcelled out among ten sub-tenants. There is 

 no mention of either Muston or Normanton in 

 Domesday, but the 3 carucates which Robert held 

 in Redmile, and which are not accounted for here by 

 name, may perhaps be included in the 3 z carucates 

 given above for Bottesford. 



" This holding cannot be traced in Domesday. 



'" This estate probably formed part of the fief of 

 Robert de Todeni in 1086, but it cannot be identified 

 among the Domesday entries relating to the latter's 

 lands. The king's in 1086. M1 Ibid.
