Dating back to approximately 1085, this document was commissioned by King William I, also known as William the Conqueror, following his conquest of England in 1066. The Domesday Book was a comprehensive survey of the entire country, aimed at assessing the value of lands and resources for taxation purposes. The text on this page reveals the taxable values of various manors and boroughs within Lincolnshire, including those of the monasteries and the king himself. The meticulous records include information on the number of plough teams, the value of livestock, and the amount of arable land. This valuable historical resource offers a unique insight into the socio-economic conditions of England during the late 11th century. It provides researchers with essential information on population, agriculture, and the distribution of wealth, enabling a deeper understanding of the period and its significance in the development of English society. The intricate detail and precision of the records contained within the Domesday Book continue to captivate scholars and history enthusiasts alike, making it an invaluable addition to any collection of historical documents.
