entirely independent. Thore is ample evidence, however, of a casual 

 interchange of grain and stock, and in a few cases it is possible to 

 distinguish certain manorial groups, the distinctive feature being the 

 rendering of the several accounts by one and the same serjeant, though 

 by different reeves. These groups are collected as indicated in the 

 following table.

Remarks. 



Clere is to some extent the centre of 

 the group for the sale of produce and 

 the supply of the bishop, but each 

 manor is worked independently in re- 

 spect of grain. In the stock account, 

 however, there are traces of specialisa- 

 tion and consequent interchange in the 

 *- different generations of sheep. 



2. Alresford - 

 Privet' - 

 Chariton 

 Wield - 

 Beauworth 



Henricus

 Martre. 



The manors are worked independently. 

 Alresford sells part of the surplus pro- 

 duce of all. The bishop is supplied at 

 Sutton directly from each manor.

 Harwell - 



4. Mardon

6. Twyford (with Harwell)

6. Bitteme -

( The grain is accounted for and sold 

 separately, each sending a quantity to 



' London (i.e., Southwark) for sale. The 

 stock shows the same specialisation as

r Worked independently, but Stoke 

 assists Twyford in the supply of the 

 bishop at Marwell. A comparison of 

 the accounts shows the bookkeeping to 

 be distinct. Stoke ignores the agency 

 of Twyford (indicated there) in the 

 receipt of bacon from Wolvesey. 



Fawley and Ower are practically sub- 

 manors, accounted for by Johannes as 

 " serviens de Biteme." The expenses of 

 the latter and the reeve of Bitteme 

 visiting 15 times are charged in the 

 . Fawley and Ower accounts. 



Markets. — The RoU affords very little evidence or illustration of the 

 function of the special market in the manorial economy. Even within a 

 group whose chief village {e.g. Clere and Alresford) is a market, it appears 

 that the sale of a good deal of the produce takes place in each manor 

 separately. In the isolated manors there is no evidence whatever of the 



1 In later Rolls Privet and Wield are combined. Still later Privet is a sub-m inor of Wield.
