A HISTORY OF NORTHAMPTONSHIRE In SoTHEWYK [Southwick] with Yare- WELL [Yarwell] William de Lisurs i hide. In FoDRENGEVE [Fotheringhay] (are) 6 hides of the fee of king David.'

In Apethorp' [Apthorpe] (are) 2 hides.* of Tansor, which was probably what appears afterwards as his land in Southwick. ' Countess Judith's in 1086.
- Domesday assigns to Peterborough Abbey
3 hides at Cotterstock, held of it by '2 knights.' Here the holdings and names of the knights are given. ' He is found complaining of its loss in Chronicon Petroburgense, p. l6g.
- This is an important entry, for it proves
that the 3 hides held of Eustace (the sheriff) by Rainald, in Domesday, were at Wood Newton in Willibrook Hundred, and not, as Mr. Stuart Moore makes them, at Newton in Corby Hundred (see p. 349 above).
- Domesday assigns the same amount to
Easton (in Willibrook Hundred), but i hides were then held by RoUand of Eudo Fitz Hubert and ^ hide had been given by Gilbert de Gand to St. Pierre-sur-Dives. ^ Here again we obtain the name of a Domesday under-tenant's son, for these 2 hides had been held of Ralf de Limesi by Herluinus in 1086. ' So far as is known, there is no mention in Domesday of Glapthorne.
- Entered in Domesday as the King's (at
' Patorp '). In Clyva [King's Cliff] 1 hide (and) a half and half a virgate.^ In DoDiNGTON [Duddington] (is) i hide.' HUNDRED OF SUTHNAVESLUNT Irtlingburg' [Irthlingborough] 5 hides (and) a half and i small virgate of the fee of (Peter)borough.'** There also Reginald de la Bataille 3 hides (and) a half of the same fee. There also Simon Basset i hide (of) Avenel of the fee of (Peter)borough." In Adington' [Addington Parva] Richard Fitz Hugh 3 hides (and) a half of the fee of (Peter)borough.'^ There also William brother [rectius son) of Guy half a virgate of the fee of Croylaund.^' There also William de Huntingdon' i hide and I virgate (and) a half of the fee of Gloucester.'* In WoDEFORD [Woodford] are 8 hides (and) half a virgate of the fee of (Peter)- borough. There also Guy Treylli i hide (and) a half of the fee of (Peter)borough.** There also Reginald de la Bataille half a virgate. There also William de Houton' half a hide."' ' Both held for the same amounts by the King in 1086.
- " The Abbey had 5 hides and i virgate in
demesne there in 1086. " Domesday enters 5 hides less i virgate as held of the Abbey there by 4 knights in 1086. Thus the total in this Survey, as in Domesday, is practically 10 hides. Simon Basset had married one of the two daus. and cohs. of William Avenel, who held one knight's fee of the Abbey here temp. Hen. II.
- ^ As 3 hides were held there of the Abbey
by 'Hugh' in 1086, this entry would seem to give us the name of his son, Richard. " Domesday assigns nothing to the Abbey in Addington Parva.
- This must be the I hide and I virgate
which Osmund held there of the bishop of Coutances in 1086. It had evidently been bestowed on the first earl of Gloucester or his father-in-law. '* Domesday assigns to the Abbey there only 7 hides, held by Roger (Maufe), and 3 virgates held by 3 tenants. '^ These two holdings seem to represent the I hide and I virgate held of the bishop of Coutances by 'Ralf in 1086. Thus the total assessment of Woodford would be 9 hides in Domesday and lO;^ hides in this Survey, which suggests some error. 388
