 there they are on the demesne with 8 bordars

 land and the words, ' there is land for,' etc. 



8 Now in the Hundred of Ganfield. 



8 The name of the Hundred seems here to be 

 omitted. ' Peise ' is elsewhere placed under 

 ' Gamesfel ' Hundret. I suspect this also to have 

 been the case with the entry next above, and that 

 the entry of the Hundred (Gamesfel) should have 

 been at Stanford. This would make both right 

 (F.W.R.). 



10 Now in the Hundred of Theale.
