NOTE TO DOMESDAY MAP 



In the accompanying niap the manors held wholly or in part by the 

 king, the bishop of Thetford, William de Warenne, and Roger Bigod 

 are distinguished from those of other tenants in chief except in the cases 

 where the holding is less than a plough-land. The hundreds are 

 indicated by letters corresponding with the key printed with the 

 map ; and the chief manors or vills in each hundred, those to which 

 soke was appurtenant, are printed in capitals. 



In many cases the names of vills appear in Domesday in several 

 different forms, but only one variant can be given on the map. The 

 positions assigned to the vills are based, when possible, upon the 

 situations of the churches. In other cases they correspond with the sites of 

 manor- or farm-houses which retain the names of the Domesday vills.
