 in Wonston, was in the hundred of Micheldever, 20 while the tithing of North 

 Houghton in the parish of Houghton was included in the hundred of King's 

 Somborne. 21 The area of the hundred thus underwent but little change until

 tithing of North Houghton was still in the hundred of King's Somborne. 

 The hundred was the property of the prior and convent of St. Swithun, 

 Winchester, 22 and passed with much of their property to the dean and chapter 

 at the Dissolution.
