NOTES TO DOMESDAY MAP. 



(Compiled by L. F. SALZMANN.) 



In this map those manors in which the King 

 had an interest are printed in scarlet ; a 

 scarlet line denotes the Archbishop of Can- 

 terbury's estates, and a black line those of 

 the Bishop of Chichester. 



The boundaries of the Rapes — and of the 

 Liberty of Battle Abbey — are indicated by 

 broken scarlet lines, and those of the 

 Hundreds by dotted black lines. In the 

 northern portion of the county the boundaries 

 of the Hundreds can be given only approxi- 

 mately, as at the time of the survey this 

 district was densely wooded. The small size 

 of many of the Hundreds should be observed. 



Domesday often records a name in more 

 than one form, but only one of the variants 

 can be given on the map. 



For the sake of uniformity and convenience 

 of reference, the boundaries of the county 

 are shown as they stand at the present time. 

 For the same reason the names of rivers are 

 given in their modern forms, though they do 

 not occur in Domesday, and are mostly of 

 quite recent origin.
