There must have been sufficient accommodation for such a host. The Latin adjective }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 scrobbensis}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 contains no reference to defences, and coins struck there later in the reign of Edward the Elder (899-924) tend to bear the name }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Scrob}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , though this might be an abbreviation. However, a mint could probably only be estab lished in a fortified place and it is likely that the defences of the borough were the work of Ealdorman Aethelred of Mercia or of his wife Aethelflaed, as part of their wider arrangements to fight off the Danes. The name of the fortified town, }{ \i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Scropesbyrig}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , makes its first appearance in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle (version F) for 1006, then, with the name of its shire, in the same chronicle (versions D and E) in 1016.

Lewis ('Introduction', }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Shropshire Domesday}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , p. 7) maintains that the entries for Osbern son of Richard, Ralph of Mortimer (L6), Roger of Lacy (L7), Hugh the ass (L8) and Nigel the doctor (L9) were later additions to the Landholders' List, inserted beside numbers }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 I}{ \cf1\insrsid4139880 to }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 IIII}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , with two on one line in order to 'leave the statement that Earl Roger and his men held what remained as the last item, though the numbering was not altered and the logic of the list as it was left is unsatisfactory'. However, a study of th e manuscript reveals that the reason why the main scribe of Great Domesday did not write entry }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 IIII}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 immediately after }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 III}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 was because he had already written }{ \i\cf1\insrsid4139880 V}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 to }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 IX}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , the last opposite a space.

In Lewis' view the scribe only became aware of the existen ce of these five tenants-in-chief after he had finished writing the first quire and so had to start a second quire for them: if he had found them earlier he could have 'inserted extra leaves' into the first quire. He could in fact still have added a half- s heet (one folio) to the end of the first quire, as he did at the end of Wiltshire, Dorset and Northamptonshire. There is similarly no evidence that the fiefs of these five tenants were overlooked and added later. On the probable reason for the scribe's st arting a second quire, rather than adding a half-sheet at the end of the first quire, see \{Introduction: Writing and Correction\}.}{\cf1\insrsid8798677 \par }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 L6\tab RALPH OF MORTIMER.

The church was built on land that had apparently been given earlier by King Wulfhere of Mercia (657-674) to Bishop Wilfrith of York for the foundation of a monastery. St Chad's original diocesan church was on a site adjacent to the later cathedral. A new church was constructed by Bishop Headda and consecrated in 700. It was apparently dedicated to St Mary, although Bede (}{ \i\insrsid4139880 Ecclesiastical History}{\insrsid4139880 , iv. 3: Colgrave and Mynors, pp. 344-45) gives St Mary as the dedicatee of the original church and St Peter as that of the new one. It was later dedicated to St Chad. In 822 there were 20 canons including a provost, that is, 11 pries ts and 9 deacons. They were then living in accordance with the rule of Bishop Chrodegang of Metz. \par \tab \tab The work of the bishops will have been disrupted by the Danish marauding and settlement of the late ninth century, since Lichfield itself would have lain ju st within the Danish part of Mercia, if the boundary between the kingdoms was Watling Street; see \{Introduction: History\}. \par \tab \tab The see was transferred by Bishop Peter to Chester in 1075. The cathedral church there was the church of St John the Baptist, a sec ular college, possibly founded by King Ethelred of Mercia in 689; more likely by the earl of that name in 906. It was repaired and endowed by Earl Leofric under Edward the Confessor. The see was moved to Coventry in 1102 by Bishop Robert of Lim\'e9 sy who had been consecrated in 1086, at which point the church of Chester reverted to being a college. Canons are mentioned in Domesday.

By the use of the verb }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 valere }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 ('to be w orth') the Great Domesday scribe normally meant the amount due to lords from their lands; see, for example, 3d,6 where the 1086 value of Bromfield to the canons of St Mary's, Bromfield, was 50s, and HEF 24,13 where Richards Castle was worth 20s to Osbern son of Richard in 1086.

The intermediate date was that at which the t enant-in-chief took possession of the manor from King William, as can be seen by the phrases }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 quando recepit }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 or }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 invenit }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 (or occasionally both, as in 4,3,11) taking the place of}{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 post }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 on several occasions (often when the land was waste); see 4,3,9 acquired no te and SHR 6 Ralph note.

In Exon, the phrase 'when he acquired it' or 'when X (the tenant-in-chief) acquired it' is regularly used when the corresponding Great Domesday entry has simply 'the value was' or 'formerly', so that when in Shropshire the scribe merely has }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 valebat }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 or }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 valuit }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 as here, with no reference to date, it is possible that he meant the value at the time the manor was acquired. \par \tab \tab Latin }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 reddit }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 (present: 'pays') and }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 reddebat/reddidit }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 (past: 'paid') would seem to have a similar meaning to }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 valet}{ \cf1\insrsid4139880 and}{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 valebat/valuit. }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 They often occur in the same value statement, as in 4,9,1. 4,14,27 etc. There is a view that, when }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 reddere }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 was}{ \i\cf1\insrsid4139880 }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 being used, it meant that a manor was being held at a revenue (i.e. 'farmed', see 3d,5 revenue note) and also that the use of}{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 valere }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 often concea led a similar fact; see Hoyt, 'Farm of the Manor' and Lennard, }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Rural England}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , pp. 105-41.

For example, in 4,3,31 the hidage is 4 hides and 1 virgate and so the space left after it cannot be for a fraction, and see 4,3,45 where }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 7 dimid'}{ \cf1\insrsid4139880 is interlined above}{\i\f703\cf1\insrsid4139880 viii hid\'ea geld'}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 where a space would have been left for the fraction if that was the meaning of these spaces (but no space was left because }{ \i\cf1\insrsid4139880 geld' }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 had already been included).

There are several other cases where the scribe left no space after the h idage, as in 3e,1. 3g,9. 4,1,5 etc., but in many cases the hidage comes at the end of a line and the scribe may have thought that the relevant word(s) could be added in the margin, as he did in 4,7,2 and as scribe B did in 4,1,1. 4,11,17 and 4,14,15; see a lso 4,3,35 hides note. Occasionally the scribe seems to have forgotten initially to leave a space and to have then left it later in the entry; see 4,24,4 land note and compare 4,17,2 land note. In some cases the manor was waste (for example, 4,23,15. 5,5- 7) and so perhaps would not have paid tax (though some waste manors did, for example, 4,20,21-23) and the scribe did not feel it necessary to mention this. It is perhaps interesting that in 1,4 no space was left after the '1 \'bd hides' and the statement that the manor paid tax had to be added at the end of the entry and that in the next entry (this one) a space was left. \par \tab \tab It is possible that the reason why the scribe did not know whether certain hides paid tax or not was because the original returns for some holdings did not differentiate between the hidage of the lordship land (which did not pay tax) and that of the land of the villagers, subtenants etc. which did. Certainly, with the possible exception of 4,1,3, in those cases where the lordship land is giv en in Shropshire (4,1,2 lordship note) the scribe either had included the information that the non-lordship hides paid tax or had left no space for such information to be added later. \par \tab \tab In just over half the cases where a space has definitely been left afte r the hidage, no dot was written after that hidage, but in the other, smaller, half there are dots; the significance of this is not clear: one would have thought that if the scribe did not intend to add anything to the hidage, which the dot seems to imply , he would not have left a space. The dots may in several instances be accidental; for example in 4,14,13. 4,21,13 etc. there is a dot after }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 hida }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 (at the end of the first line) with }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 geld' }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 at the beginning of the next, not added. In Herefordshire also there are sometimes dots, and sometimes not, after the hidage: see HEF 1,9 hides note. \par \tab \tab In some five entries the space left after the hidage is due to an erasure, which in the case of 4,27,29 was definitely of }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 geld' }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 and was probably also in 4,19,4. 4,27,2;3 and possibly in 4,27,9 too (see 4,19,4 hides note, 4,27,2 hides note, 4,27,3 hide note, 4,27,9 hide note and 4,27,29 hides note). Similarly placed erasures also occur in Domesday Herefordshire. Unless, as in HEF 29,16, a link-line was drawn over the erasure t o indicate that the scribe did not intend to add anything there, it is not clear whether he intended to insert something later if available and so did not write over the erasure (this would be the case if the erasure were immediate) or whether the erasure was done at the correcting stage of the work (in which case a link-line ought to have been drawn, unless there was suddenly a question of whether the land paid tax or not, so the scribe erased the }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 geld' }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 and intended later to insert }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 geld' }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 or }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 non geld'}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 when}{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 he had found out the true position); see 4,27,29 hides note. The fact that in nine or ten entries where there was an erasure after the hidage scribe B inserted }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 geld'}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 (see 4,14,16. 4,19,1;5. 4,23,3;5 and perhaps 4,14,18, and also CHS A15. 1,6-8) may suggest that the main Great Domesday scribe had sometimes begun the next sentence and then realized he ought to have left a space for the possible insertion of }{ \i\cf1\insrsid4139880 geld'}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 and then continued after the erasure.}{\cf1\insrsid8798677 \par }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 \tab LAND FOR 2 PLOUGHS. An estimate of the ploughlands is a co nvenient way of giving the true arable extent of a manor without the complexities associated with the hide (on which see C13 hides note). In Domesday Shropshire two methods of giving such an estimate were used. As here, the scribe used the phrase }{ \i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Terra est ... carucis}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 ,}{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 normally after the hidage, and then recorded the number of ploughs actually on the manor, whether employed on the lord's own estate or by the villagers (used in the general sense). This phrase was very common in the south-west counties, in Ch eshire, Staffordshire and elsewhere in Great Domesday, though for some reason was rarely used in Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Gloucestershire. In the vast majority of the entries in Shropshire where it is used, it can be seen that the actual ploughs o n the land fall far short of the estimate (by 48 ploughs in 4,20,8 and see 2,1 ploughs note), although in some 36 cases the manors seem to have been fully 'stocked' and Pulley (6,30) had an excess of 2 ploughs in use (see also 4,19,13 ploughs note and 7,4 servants note). In many cases, especially of the shorter entries, no ploughs were recorded, only the estimate given. \par \tab \tab The other method used here to estimate the ploughlands was to record the ploughs on the land (whether lordship or villagers') and then to state how many more ploughs would be possible there. Normally this phrase on the potential ploughs occurs after the villagers' ploughs are given, though in the case of 1,4. 3b,2 and a few other entries it appears immediately after the lordship ploughs; o c casionally it occurs at the end of an entry or after the resources. The fact that in 4,1,5-6 the scribe states twice that more ploughs were possible, first after the lordship ploughs and then after the villagers' ploughs, would suggest that the position o f these phrases was important and reflected the actual areas of plough potential; the scribe presumably either had fuller information for these manors or failed to remove it when editing from the circuit volume. In some ninety entries no estimate of the pl oughland is given but the ploughs are merely recorded; this may indicate that these manors could support no more ploughs, though it is possible that the scribe's information was defective there, as elsewhere in Shropshire (see \{ Introduction: Writing and Correction\}). \par \tab \tab There is no obvious reason why in Shropshire the scribe should have used both phrases to assess and record plough capacity; he cannot have been reflecting the phrase used in the original returns for different areas, as every hundred has both p hrases represented in its lands (except perhaps Shrewsbury in the case of the 'Land for' formula). The 'more ploughs possible' form is used largely up to the end of 4,13, only appearing twice thereafter, at 4,14,18 and 4,19,1, and the 'Land for' phrase is used mostly from 4,14 to the end of the county, although it does occur 49 times in the earlier part of the county, seven times in added entries (see 3d,7 land note). However, it is possible that after 4,13 he decided or was told to use the 'Land for' form ula. In Domesday Yorkshire he had initially begun using the formula 'where there can be }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 n}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 ploughs' but changed to the 'Land for' formula on folio 325c (after YKS 14E50); where the 'Land for' formula occurs in entries before YKS 14E50 it is almost always bec ause those entries are later additions and this gives a clue as to when the additions were made. In 4,4,20 both forms are used together: there is 'land for 41 ploughs' and '4 ploughs possible' in the lordship. The fact that both formulae occur together in several fiefs and sub-chapters does not suggest that the use of one phrase or the other was the result of different preferences among those making the returns. It is possible, however, that as the positioning of the 'more ploughs possible' seems to have h ad some meaning, the scribe used the vaguer phrase 'Land for }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 n }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 ploughs' when his material did not specify whether there could be more ploughs on the lord's manor or on the villagers' land. But this would not explain why he seems to have used two ways of sta ting that a manor was fully stocked (by merely recording the ploughs on that manor, if that is the meaning of this, or by making those ploughs equal those in the 'Land for' statement). In some other Great Domesday counties, such as Leicestershire, more th a n one ploughland formula was used and it is not clear there either what occasioned the scribe's change from one phrase to another; see LEC 1,12 land note. It is interesting that in two virtually identical entries in Yorkshire the phrase '6 ploughs possibl e' occurs in the first and 'land for 6 ploughs' in the repeat: YKS 9W131;144 (the latter entry was added, then erased). \par \tab \tab On the frequent artificiality of the numbers in the plough assessment, see Finn, 'Teamland', pp. 96-98; Moore, 'Domesday Teamland'.}{\cf1\insrsid8798677 \par }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 \tab SLAVES.

The slave came at the bottom en d of the social scale; he belonged to his master utterly, providing most of the labour on his land, he could be bought and sold, had almost no rights and rarely any share in the villagers' land and ploughs; see below and Finberg, }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Tavistock Abbey}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 ,}{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 pp. 36-38 , 60-61. He could also be freed: in GLS 38,2 William Leofric had freed 12 slaves at Hailes. In Domesday Shropshire in the folios up to folio 253a (the end of chapter 3g) the slaves are almost always listed after the villagers and their ploughs (as regular ly in Domesday Gloucestershire and Worcestershire), but they never occur in such a position thereafter, being given either after the lordship ploughs as in such phrases as '}{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 n}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 ploughs there, with }{ \i\cf1\insrsid4139880 n }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 slaves' or 'he has ... }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 n }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 slaves'. It should be noted that Sh ropshire never definitely states that the slaves were in lordship: although they are regularly listed after the lordship plough(s), the punctuation is ambiguous because of the ubiquitous connecting }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 7}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 . In 5,1 where no lordship ploughs are stated, the slaves are listed before the villagers, but the word order there is unusual in other respects as well. In four entries (4,1,36. 4,8,12. 4,14,5. 7,6) and possibly a fifth (6,6), slaves appear to have a share in the villagers' ploughs and in 4,9,4 1 villager and 2 slaves 'have nothing', presumably referring to their lack of ploughs. There is evidence elsewhere in Great Domesday that slaves had ploughs, or at least a share in them; for example, see HEF 1,10a. WAR 17,16. SOM 47,16. DEV 6,13.

However, they were apparently not allowed to be separated from the manor (se e HEF 1,4 and GLS 3,1) and they had many obligations. Originally, as their names imply, they seem to have been men who rode with messages or on escort duty, for the king or for their lord (see WOR 2,29 and WOR 2,29 rider note), though they may have had so m e military functions, if only defence of the border. They also worked their own lands and those of their lord (see WOR 8,10a, GLS 1,24. HEF 29,4). Here in Shropshire they are several times recorded with ploughs of their own, separate from the villagers' p loughs: for example, in 4,14,10. 4,15,1. 4,20,7. 4,21,1;5. 4,27,24. 6,33.

In the majority of entries, however, they seem to have a share in the ploughs recorded for the other vill agers, smallholders etc. They may have had smallholders, ploughmen and even villagers of their own (see 2,1 smallholders note); presumably these or other 'villagers' worked the riders' land when they were absent on duty. They also apparently paid dues: 2 riders in 4,20,8 pay 2 cattle in dues (}{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 de censu}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 ), 7 riders in 4,5,14 pay 20s (though this may be a money rent) and in HEF 1,10a the riding men gave 14s 4d and 3 sesters of honey. \par \tab \tab For discussion, see }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 VCH Worcestershire}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , i. pp. 250-51; Maitland, }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Domesday Book and Beyond}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , pp. 57, 66, 305-308; Vinogradoff, }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 English Society in the Eleventh Century}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , pp. 69-71; Nelson, }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Normans in South Wales}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , pp. 44-51; Gwynne, 'Domesday Society in Shropshire', pp. 95-97.}{\insrsid8798677 \par }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 \tab HALL. }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Aula}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 ,}{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 the house in which the owner or lord of an est ate lived and from which the manor was administered.

However, there are in fact nine churches whose lands f orm the chapter; for clarity they are here numbered 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f, 3g, 3h; 3d contains the lands of two different churches dedicated to St Mary (see SHR 3d St Mary note). He omitted a rubricated heading above the section referring to the lands of St Peter's (3b), but he wrote }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 III }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 on}{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 the first line of folio 252c (level with the first line of 3b,1) and then erased it, though it is still visible in the manuscript. However, probably when he realized that other churches were the subjects of the chapter, he inserted headings ('What the Church of St Milburga [etc.] holds') above the remaining sections 3c-3h inclusive. Chapter 4 in Domesday Cornwall similarly contains the lands of several churches and the main scribe of Great Domesday similarly inserted th e rubricated heading 'Land of St Michael's' at its start, although St Michael's only appeared in the first entry; in the Landholders' List in Cornwall, however, the true state of affairs was recorded as the fourth item is 'The Churches of Various Saints' ( folio 120a). \par }{\insrsid4139880 \tab \tab It is likely that the lands of these nine separate churches formed a single composite chapter, arranged by hundred, in the circuit volume (the likely source of Domesday Shropshire and the other counties in circuit V). At first sight, there is little evidence to support this notion in the order of Domesday, though nothing flatly contradicts it. A closer inspection reveals that any previous hundredal arrangement would have been disrupted by two editorial operations carried out by the }{ \cf1\insrsid4139880 main scribe of Great Domesday: the order in which he recorded these churches and the order of the entries within them. He arranged the churches in order of importance, beginning with a foreign church (Saint-R\'e9 my of Rheims: SHR 3a), proceeding to Earl Roger's new Benedictine abbey of St Peter (SHR 3b), then to the lands of Wenlock (SHR 3c) which was the largest church in Shropshire, already a priory and attached to the }{\insrsid4139880 Abbey of La Charit\'e9 -sur-Loire. Local }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 churches were then detailed, the first of them (St Mary's of Shr ewsbury: SHR 3d,1-3;5) probably being the oldest. Compare the order of the similar group of churches in Domesday Cornwall (CON 4 St Michael's note), which the Great Domesday scribe had changed from the order found in his source, Exon. The hundredal order w ithin each section of chapter 3 was distorted by the scribe's putting the most important holding of each church first, generally what it held in Shrewsbury, but thereafter there are no inconsistencies in the order, though it is not the 'standard' order fo und in several sub-chapters of Earl Roger's chapter 4 (see \{Introduction: Standard Order of Hundreds\}). The order of hundreds in the lands of each church is given in the notes to them in this edition.}{\insrsid4139880 \par }{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 \tab \tab If these churches were detailed in one composite secti on in the circuit volume, it would explain several of the problems encountered by the Great Domesday scribe, such as the brief omission of a holding of Shrewsbury Abbey (see 3b,4 entry note) and of a holding of St Milburga which was not found until after r ubrication had taken place (see 3c,14 entry note). Likewise a large detail on St Mary's of Bromfield was added (see 3d,7 entry note) as were all of the holdings of St Michael's Church and St Juliana's Church (SHR 3c, SHR 3e). Moreover, the confusion over t he two churches of St Mary (see SHR 3d St Mary note) can best be explained by their being intermingled, as they would have been in a composite chapter, probably with their location only mentioned at the first occurrence, if at all. Finally, chapter 3 as a whole has more corrections in it than other chapters (sub-chapters in the case of chapter 4) in Shropshire, which would have been caused by the need to pick out each church's holdings and probably rearrange the order of these. A study of how the main scri be of Great Domesday rearranged the composite chapters that he found in Exon and the problems this caused is added proof that chapter 3 was so arranged in his source.}{\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 \par }{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 \tab \tab There seems no reason to think that the churches in 3b-3h were tenants of Earl Roger (so }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 VCH Shropshire}{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 , i. p. 291), rather than holding directly from the king, as the Landholders' List implies (chapter 4 there is the only one dedicated to Earl Roger and his men), despite the fact that the king is not mentioned in 3b-3h (though he is in 3a,1) . St Michael's is said to hold Poston (3e,1) from the earl, but perhaps this was because St Michael's lay in or very near Shrewsbury castle or because Earl Roger seems to have been its founder. Earl Roger was also closely linked with the churches in 3b an d 3c, but this does not mean that they were his subtenants. Lewis ('Introduction', }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 Shropshire Domesday}{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 , p. 11) reproduces the view of }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 VCH Shropshire}{ \cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 and adds that the absence from the Landholders' List of the churches in 3b-3h 'shows that they did not hold directly from the king, but under Earl Roger'.

Its predecessor, dedicated to St Peter and St Paul, was a small wooden church or chapel, a }{ \i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 lignea capella}{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 , built outside the east gate of Shrewsbury by Siward son of Aethelgar, a kinsman of King Edward (see 4,27,32 Siward note). This church had Boreton and Lowe (3b,5 and 6,5) and the tithes of Upton Magna (4,3,24 Upton note)as its endowments. Under William I it was administered by Odelerius, a cleric of Earl Roger and father of Orderic Vitalis. Together in 1083 Odelerius and the earl began the building of an abbey dedicated to the same saints; its first abbot, Fu lcred, came from the monastery of S\'e9es (also founded by Earl Roger }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 c}{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 . 1087 in Normandy). Roger himself became a monk there three days before his death and was buried there. Siward gave the site of his church for the abbey in exchange for the restorat ion to him of Cheney Longville (4,27,32) and Odelerius later gave to the abbey 1 hide at Charlton in Wrockwardine (4,1,1 St Peter note). In 1086 eight churches contributed income: Baschurch (4,1,3), Berrington (4,3,14), Corfham (4,1,6), Hodnet (4,1,4), Mo r ville (4,1,5), Great Ness (4,1,17), Stottesdon (4,1,30) and Wrockwardine (4,1,1). Before his death Earl Roger gave the churches of Condover (4,1,2), Donington (4,1,25), Edgmond (4,1,23), High Ercall (4,1,21), Tong (4,1,24) and Wellington (4,1,22). This su g gests that the church may have been more important than tradition suggests, and might have been a late-Saxon minster church, founded by an ealdorman to complement the episcopal minster of St Chad (3f) and the royal minster of St Mary (3d).

The word }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 parochia }{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 can stand on its own for 'parish church' (Niermeyer, }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 Lexicon Minus}{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 , under }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 parochia}{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 ). This is illustrated by an entry in the Tutbury Cartulary (Saltman, p. 63 no. 51) where Henry of Ferrers and his wife Bertha, after granting Marston-on-Dove, Doveridge and West Broughton (all in Derbyshire) continue: }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 Ad huc autem donavimus parochiam castelli mei}{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 ...

If that is the meaning intended here, the clause will be describing the position and status of the church on which Earl Roger was basing his abbey, referring to the wooden church built by Siward son of Aethelgar: SHR 3b St Peter's note. Because the sense of the word }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 monasterium}{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 in the preceding clause is unclear, it could be that this clause is intended to make clear that this was not a monastery in the sense of withdrawal from the world, but a 'minster'.}{\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 \par }{\insrsid4139880 \tab \tab However, i}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 t was not the only parish church because Shrewsbury had several parishes.

If, however, }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 parochia}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 has its usual meaning of 'parish', then 'where there was a city parish' is also not clear in meaning.

He is said to have sent news of the battle of Stamford Bridge to William, then Duke of Normandy , to whom he was apparently related. He was sheriff of Essex under William and was succeeded by his son Swein.

The main scribe of Great Domesday would have picked out from this composite section the holdings of the individual subtenants. This is exactly what happened in Domesday Cornwall, where the bulk of the county was in the hands of the Count of Mortain and dealt with in Exon in one huge hundredally-arranged section, which the Great Domesday s cribe split up into 26 sub-chapters arranged by subtenant. The same method of dividing SHR 4 into numbered sub-chapters is employed as it is in CON 5. The scribe's method of indicating the subtenants in SHR 4 is also exactly the same as in CON 5 (see CON 5 count note). Thus, the scribe indicated the beginning of each sub-chapter with capitals for the holder's Christian name, lined through in red for emphasis and with the initial letter a large rubricated capital; he used capitals and, with one exception (4 , 27,12, probably accidental), full rubrication for the names of the various holders in chapter 4,27 (which corresponds to the 'Land of the Thanes/French Men-at-Arms/King's Servants' in other counties). Subsequent entries in each sub-chapter almost invariab ly began 'The same/He also \'85 holds'. Where the Great Domesday scribe did not adhere to this practice, there is often a suspicion that he was unsure of the tenant's identity, and the descent of the land in question often supports this; see 4,4,23 Roger note, 4,11,10 Cosford note, 4,11,17 Ralph note, and compare 4,5,5 Brampton note, 4,14,29 Buchehale note and 4,22,2 Hugh note. In Domesday Cornwall there are similar instances of a change in formula within sub-chapters and for the same reason; see CON 5 arrange ment note. The Great Domesday scribe left a space for one or more lines of writing between these sub-chapters; with the exception of the line between chapters 4,15 and 4,16, Farley indicated these spaces. \par \tab \tab Moreover, the inclusion within sub-chapters of sev eral entries that did not belong there suggests that the scribe (probably accidentally) wrote them where he found them; see 4,1 arrangement note. Finally, the brief omission of a number of entries is easily explained by the scribe's need to search repeate d ly through a long section to remove the holdings of individual subtenants; these omitted entries would then have been found during the checking of the original and inserted; see 4,3,71 entry note, 4,9,4 entry note, 4,12,1 entry note, 4,14,28 entry note. E xactly the same errors and subsequent insertions occurred in Domesday Cornwall, though during the initial writing up of that county.}{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid8798677 \par }{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 \tab \tab It is improbable that the circuit volume was perfect. The Count of Mortain's fief in Cornwall in it, though arranged hundr edally, contains some dislocations which are inevitable, if, as is likely, it was itself a conversion from a territorially-arranged schedule, containing full manorial detail, like the }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 Inquisitio Comitatus Cantabrigiensis}{ \cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 .}{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid8798677 \par }{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 \tab ARRANGEMENT. After the land that Earl Roger himself held (see 4,1 Roger note), the lands of his tenants were detailed (sub-chapters 4,2 - 4,27). The order of these subtenants was not wholly by importance nor by the number and size of their holdings. An early place seems to have been acco r ded to Earl Hugh, Earl Roger's counterpart in Cheshire (4,2), then to Reginald, Roger's sheriff (4,3), who held the most land from the earl. It may be that the Corbet brothers, Roger and Robert, were entered next because of their importance (4,4-5), but i t is probable that after Reginald the main scribe of Great Domesday entered tenants with the same initial next to each other, as elsewhere in Domesday: thus, 4,4,4 to 4,4,12 contain the lands of subtenants beginning with }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 R}{ \cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 , then 4,4,13 to 4,4,16 those beginning with }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 W}{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 , followed by the holdings of two beginning with }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 O}{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 , and so on. There seems no reason to think that the seven estates of 4,26 (Roger the hunter) were not a sub-chapter in their own right, but part of 4,27, as Lewis, 'Introduction', }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 Shropshire Domesday}{ \cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 , p. 12. Space was left after 4,26 and before the first of the entries in 4,27, as usual; on the layout of the latter, see 4,27 tenants note. When Robert of Bell\'ea me forfeited his lands in 1102, many of those tenants who had not joined him were allowed to retain their lands as tenants-in-chief.

The inserti on of this hundred head above Stottesdon is linked to the possible insertion of a head above Overton (4,11,16) which lies a little to the north. Stottesdon lies at the end of a group (4,1,27-29) of places in "Culvestan" Hundred and 4,1,31-33 are probably i n "Alnodestreu" Hundred. Stottesdon could not have lain in "Culvestan" Hundred, but it could conceivably have been in "Alnodestreu" if Overton was. The places that lie closest to Overton, that is Neenton, Middleton Scriven, Glazeley, 'Fouswardine', Sidbur y , Aston Boterell and Pickthorn, all appear to have lain in "Alnodestreu" Hundred in 1086, yet Overton (at 4,11,16) falls at the end of a 'Conditre' hundred group, places that lay in "Alnodestreu" Hundred having already been entered (4,11,5-10), though bel o w an erroneous Baschurch hundred heading. If Overton were in 'Conditre' Hundred, it would either have been a detachment of it, separated by Pickthorn and Aston Boterell, or have been reached by a narrow corridor of land. However, a further argument for Ov erton's being in 'Conditre' Hundred is that it was a member of Stottesdon Ancient Parish and may even have been its 'upper' }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 tun}{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 . It would be topographically awkward if Overton were placed in 'Conditre' Hundred as an outlier and an "Alnodestreu" hundred head inserted above Stottesdon at 4,1,30. It also ignores the fact that lay landholdings are rarely detached in this way in Great Domesday. Moreover, the lost place-name 'Conditre', which was the moot-site, lay in Walton in Stottesdon (}{ \i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 VCH Shropshire}{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 , iii. p. 2), so it seems that Stottesdon must be placed in 'Conditre' Hundred and it appears probable, despite the topographical difficulty, that Overton belonged in that hundred as well. This tidies up the sequence of hundreds in 4,11. The solution adopted in the Phillimore printed edition was to put Stottesdon in 'Conditre' Hundred and Overton in "Alnodestreu" Hundred, restoring an "Alnodestreu" hundred head at 4,11,16. The solution adopted here follows that chosen for the Alecto edition.}{ \cf1\cgrid0\insrsid8798677 \par }{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 \tab STOTTESDON. This was an Ancient Parish.

These two entries, which rightly belong with the earlier one, enumerate the 50 \'bd hides now dependent on the castle.

Many of these lands lie beyond the modern count y boundary and several lie beyond Offa's Dyke. That they are hidated implies that the English settlement is long-standing and the dependence on Montgomery is probably only a recent convenience. They had probably been settled by the English early in the cen tury and the wasting was due to the depredations of Gruffydd ap Llewelyn that had rendered them only fit for hunting: \{Introduction: History\}. \par \tab \tab Most of the dependencies subsequently formed part of the honour of Montgomery or of the barony of Cause (descent from Roger son of Corbet, 4,4).

His lands became the honour or barony of Chester.

Also, if he dealt with any Welsh areas previously he would have been expecting only the briefest details followed by a v alue, as in 4,1,13 and 4,3,42. The value of the holding in 1086 would normally go here after the 'value' in 1066 and when acquired by Hugh, hence possibly the space.

He held Pulverbatch (4,26,4) which i s four miles from Longnor and a manor of 2 hides, also Wrentnall (4,26,2), also 2 hides, adjacent to Pulverbatch.

Thus the contents of each hundred have to be reconstructed from Domesday Book itself. In the Phillimore printed edition Peplow was placed in Wrockwardine Hundred, following the hundred head at 4,11,17. H owever, as a member of Hodnet Ancient Parish it could well have been in Hodnet Hundred in 1086. The main scribe of Great Domesday presumably thought it was not in Wrockwardine Hundred as he left a space for a hundred head; see 4,11,19 Earl note.

It is not rubricated and was added in the same campaign as the other unrubric a ted entries in Shropshire and as some in other circuits; see 3c,14 entry note. It is a duplicate of an entry already written (4,27,30); see 4,12,1 Aisil note. The Great Domesday scribe probably forgot that he had already included Richard with other lesser tenants of Earl Roger in 4,27 (see 4,27 tenants note). Compare 4,1,34 which was added at the same time and is also a duplicate of material already entered at 4,27,14. The fact that he wrote smaller and so close to the preceding sub-chapter (almost 4 cms. remain after the entry before the bottom marginal ruling) may suggest that he envisaged the discovery of further holdings of Richard and intended to delete the entry at 4,27,30. Lewis ('Introduction', }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 Shropshire Domesday}{ \cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 , p. 8) has suggested that the closen ess of this entry to Ralph's subtenancy was perhaps to show that Richard held as Ralph's man, but the scribe definitely left a space before Richartd's land. Moreover, he wrote Richard's name (in capitals and with a large initial) as if he were a subtenant of Earl Roger in his own right and this would have been lined through in red if work on Domesday Book had not upruptly terminated. The Great Domesday scribe was also generally quite careful to record that someone was 'the man of' another person. The omiss ion of the hundred head (see 4,12,1 Wrockwardine note) might suggest that the source of this addition was not the same as for the entry at 4,27,30, though such an omission is common in added entries, especially unrubricated ones.}{ \cf1\cgrid0\insrsid8798677 \par }{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 \tab [IN WROCKWARDINE HUNDRED].

The litigation seems to have been rather more complicated than Domesday states: ostensibly the holder of this sub-chapter, Roger the hunter, is in dispute with Albert about the removal of land from Albert's village of Welshampton ( 4,3,54). However, Norman [the hunter:}{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 }{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 4,25 Norman note] must have been a claimant, since Broom descends to the Pitchfords of whom Richard de Pitchford gave }{\i\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 Brome }{ \cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 to Haughmond Abbey: the Haughmond Cartulary (Rees, nos. 196-201, 487, 681, 1175).

However, of the spaces he noted between the French tenants on folio 259b two are illusory, being caused by the heads for Wrockwardine and "Merset" Hundreds (above 4,27,2;4) being placed on a separate line abov e their respective holdings, rather than after the value of the preceding entry, the space before 4,27,1 is the normal one before a new sub-chapter (see SHR 4 Roger note) and no space was left before 4,27,5 as the scribe reverted to his normal practice, co n tinued on folio 259c, of not putting the hundred heads on a separate line. Lewis further thinks that the scribe indicated that Godebold (4,27,7), whose land was listed first on folio 259c, was a Frenchmen despite the 'layout' suggesting he was English, by deliberately not aligning his entry with the rest of the column.

Moreover, the scribe could have shown that Godebold was French (if h e was: his name is Old German) merely by putting the Condover hundred head above the next entry on a separate line, if that was really how he indicated the holdings of Frenchmen.}{\cf1\insrsid8798677 \par }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 \tab \tab These miscellaneous lands do not all descend in the same way; many became s erjeanties, several go to the honour of Montgomery, and the lands of individuals - for example, of Fulcwy (4,27,2-3) and Alward (4,27,23-25, if this is one individual) - tend to have the same later history (in these cases passing to Fitz Alan and to the h onour of Montgomery respectively).}{\insrsid8798677 \par }{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 \tab THE HUNDREDAL ORDER }{\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 of this sub-chapter is as follows (the bracketed numbers are explained in SHR 4 arrangement note): \par \tab \tab 4,27,1 [Hodnet] Hundred \par \tab \tab 4,27,2-3 Wrockwardine Hundred \par \tab \tab 4,27,4 "Merset" Hundred \par \tab \tab 4,27,5-6 Condover Hundred \par \tab \tab 4,27,7 Wittery Hundred \par \tab \tab 4,27,8-15 Condover Hundred \par \tab \tab 4,27,16-20 "Reweset" Hundred \par \tab \tab 4,27,21-25 Wittery Hundred \par \tab \tab 4,27,26 Hodnet Hundred \par \tab \tab 4,27,27-28 Baschurch Hundred \par \tab \tab 4,27,29-30 Wrockwardine Hundred \par \tab \tab 4,27,31 "Merset" Hundred \par \tab \tab 4,27,32-33 Leintwardine Hundred \par \tab \tab 4,27,34 "Merset" Hundred \par \tab \tab 4,27,35 'Conditre' Hundred. \par \tab The rationale for this sequence is unclear.

Upper Kinsham (SO3664) was an Ancient Parish, in Herefordshire since the dissolution of the Marcher lordships in the sixteenth century. Lower Kinsham (SO3564) was also in Herefordshire from the same date, but was a township of Presteigne Ancient Parish, which was divided between Radnorshire and Herefordshire: two wards of Presteigne itself and the township of Discoed lay in Radnorshire while all the rest lay in Herefordshire, the townships of Lower Kinsham, Stapleton and Willey lying north of the River L u gg, the townships of Combe, Rodd, Nash and Little Brampton south of it. The date of this division between the counties is uncertain (see below). In 1086, the River Lugg seems to have been the principal division between Shropshire and Herefordshire, with t he places north of the Lugg being in Shropshire and those south of it in Herefordshire. Kinsham lay in Leintwardine Hundred in 1086. \par }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 \tab \tab The suggestion is that }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Humet}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 is at least to be identified with Kinsham, and probably with both Kinsham and Presteigne, though these identifications are tentative; }{ \i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Humet}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 was left unidentified in the Phillimore printed edition and in the Alecto edition. These two adjacent places, Presteigne (SO3164) and Kinsham, seem to contain the same element and appear to be named by reference to each other. Ekwall (}{ \i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Dictionary of English Placenames}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , under Presteigne) and Smith in }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 English Place-Name Element}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 s (under }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 haemed}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 ), took this element as Old English }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 haemed}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , used in the rare sense of 'household'. More recently Margaret Gelling in the etymologies she provided for Copplestone-Crow, }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Herefordshire Place-Names}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 (under Presteigne, pp. 117-18) has suggested derivation from Old English}{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 hemm-maed}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , meaning 'meadow on a boundary', referring to the well-watered nature of the site beside the River Lugg and the proximity to the then boundary between Shropshire and Wales.

There is no later record of it being in royal hands. Soon after the Conquest it will probably have been granted to Earl William; see \{Introduction: History\} . Certainly it is tempting to think of }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Humet}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 's being a single estate, later divided between a priests' part and a royal part, the latter being subsequently further divided into Upper Kinsham and Lower Kinsham. It is even more tempting to believe that the distinction already existed in 1066 and 1086, but was subsumed by a single name. A royal site and a priests' site within the same estate suggests the presence of an ancient royal estate complemented by a Saxon minster church containing secular priests or canons. }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Humet}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 was waste in 1066 and all but the lordship was in 1086, so this negative evidence can be argued either way. \par \tab \tab The first occurrence of the differentiated forms Presteigne and Kinsham are, however, after 1086.

It is perhaps significant that the portion of Presteigne lying south of the River Lugg and lying in Radnorshire until 1974 is only incorporated in that county by a curio u s loop of the county boundary which turns south at SO320634 to join the Summergil Brook, follows it eastwards to its confluence with the River Lugg then follows that river westwards to a point (at SO310650) where it leaves the river and heads northwards. T his is a circuit of some 7 kilometres, whereas, had the boundary turned northwards at SO310630, it would have skirted Presteigne on the western side and rejoined the later county boundary in under two kilometres. It is thus possible that this part of Pres t eigne was incorporated in Radnorshire later than 1536, and that initially, on the dissolution of the Marcher lordships, the whole of Presteigne both north and south of the River Lugg was put in Herefordshire. It also seems probable that in 1086, Presteign e lay entirely north of the river in Shropshire and it and Clatterbrune lying in Herefordshire stood for what became Presteigne south of the river. \par }{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 \tab \tab The matter of boundaries and these identifications need further investigation.}{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid8798677 \par }{\cf1\cgrid0\insrsid4139880 \tab EXCEPT FOR THE LORDSHIP ... 10s.

Aymestrey itself was in Herefordshire in 1086. In Domesday the land at Lye was divided among several tenants and was partl y in Shropshire (if correctly identified) and partly in Herefordshire (HEF 1,10c. 9,8;14. 24,4. 31,7). Ralph of Mortimer also held \'bd hide in }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Lecwe }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 in "Hezetre" Hundred, in Herefordshire (HEF 9,8), and 57 acres of land and all the woodland in Gruffydd's manor of }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Lega }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 (HEF 9,14. 31,7). The Shropshire lands of Ralph came into Marcher jurisdiction and were ultimately put into Herefordshire. The earliness of this change and the lack of records make it difficult to determine the boundary between the two counties at this point. If in 1086 the boundary lay along the River Lugg, then it may have turned northwards along the tributary that separates Lower from Upper Lye, keeping Upper Lye in Shropshire (like Lingen (6,15) which is not far away to the north-west). Ralp h certainly held land at Lower Lye, probably the Domesday Herefordshire manor which is }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Netherlege }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 in }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Book of Fees}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , p. 804, and in }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Feudal Aids}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , ii. p. 377 (Herefordshire); see the Herefordshire Domesday (Galbraith and Tait, p. 38 and p. 95 note).

They originated from }{\insrsid4139880 Lassy, }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 in the French d\'e9partement of }{\insrsid4139880 Calvados (arrondissement Vire, canton Cond\'e9-sur-Noireau). Roger's brother, Hugh of Lacy, and his nephew, Ilbert of Lacy, were both Domesday tenants-in-chief. }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 Roge r himself was a tenant-in-chief and also held lands under Earl Roger (SHR 4,8). Both groups became part of the Lacy barony whose }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 caput }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 was Weobley in Herefordshire and whose chief Shropshire manor was Stanton Lacy (SHR 7,4). }{\insrsid4139880 As a supporter of Robert Curtho se against William II, he rebelled in 1088 and in 1094, lost his English lands and was banished. He returned to Normandy where he served Robert until his fall in 1106. }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 His forfeited lands passed to his brother, Hugh, then to Roger's son, Gilbert of Lacy, descending in the Lacy family until the death of another Walter of Lacy in 1241.}{\cf1\insrsid8798677 \par }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 \tab \tab None of the estates in this chapter nor those in SHR 5-6, 8-9 lay north of Shrewsbury and with only a few exceptions all are found in the southernmost hundreds of Leintwardin e, "Culvestan", 'Overs' and 'Conditre': SHR 5 Osbern note.

There were a Siward and an Aldred who were brothers and sons of Aethelgar. They were related to Edric Streona, King Edward and Edric the wild (4,1,14 Edric note and 4,27,32 Siward note). It is possible that these are the individuals whose lands Roger acquired. However, the description of Siward and Aldred as 'free men' may count aga inst this, as Siward son of Aethelgar was described in HEF 1,41 as a relative of King Edward, and it would be normal to describe an important Siward simply as 'Siward' unless the main scribe of Great Domesday was ignorant of his status.}{\insrsid8798677 \par }{\insrsid4139880 \tab The hundredal order of this chapter is as follows: \par \tab \tab 7,1 ["Alnodestreu"] Hundred \par \tab \tab (7,2 ['Overs'] Hundred) \par \tab \tab 7,3 'Conditre' Hundred}{\insrsid8798677 \par }{\insrsid4139880 \tab \tab 7,4-6 "Culvestan" Hundred. \par \tab At 7,1 Domesday has an erroneous Baschurch hundred head.

Moreover, it is only in the southernmost hundreds of Shropshire that lay tenants hold directly from the king (SHR 7 Roger note); elsewhere they hold under Earl Roger. "Alnodestreu" is probably the correct hundred. The cause of these errors is very probably that the main scribe of Great Domesday mechanically inserted the name of the next hundred in the standard sequence, even though the fief-holder had no estates there: \{Introduction: Hundreds\}.}{\cf1\insrsid8798677 \par }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 \tab ROGER OF LACY HOLDS ...

A confusion in the text was also suggested there, though the identification of }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Dodentone}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 in 7,2 was kept as Ditton Priors, albeit questioned, and 'Cleobury' as Cleobury North. However, since the publication of that edition in 1986 our work on the corrections and additions made to Great Domesday Book now suggests st rongly that this entry is a duplicate of the one at 6,2, as are so many other added entries, especially those written at a late stage after rubrication of the county had taken place (see 4,1,34 entry note).

How ever, in view of the number of added entries that are duplicates, he may not have checked what he had already written. His omission of the 'Overs' hundred head (which was in the entry at 6,4) may suggest a different source for this added entry and may hav e contributed to his error in duplication. We do not accept the suggestion by Lewis ('Introduction', }{\i\cf1\insrsid4139880 Shropshire Domesday}{\cf1\insrsid4139880 , p. 8) that this addition corrected the detail in 6,4 and he errs in thinking that the duplicate entry had not been noticed before, as this point was mentioned in the Phillimore printed edition note to 7,2. \par \tab \tab The Penguin Alecto edition prints this entry in the middle of the entry for Stanton Long; see 4,14,28 entry note.}{\cf1\insrsid8798677 \par }{\cf1\insrsid4139880 \tab [IN 'OVERS' HUNDRED].
