Title: A Glimpse into England's Past: The Domesday Book of Middlesex The Domesday Book, an invaluable historical document, offers a unique window into England's past, specifically the resources and taxable values of the boroughs and manors in Middlesex during the late 11th century. This extract is taken from the Great Domesday Book, a comprehensive survey commissioned by William the Conqueror around 1085.

Middlesex, an ancient county located in the south-east of England, is the focus of this particular extract. The county's boroughs and manors are listed, with details on the number of households, the value of crops, livestock, and other assets, as well as the amount of taxes owed to the crown. This document, a testament to the meticulous record-keeping of the medieval period, has played a crucial role in historical research, providing valuable insights into the socio-economic conditions of England during the late 11th century. The Domesday Book continues to be a source of fascination for historians, archaeologists, and anyone interested in understanding the rich history of England. The intricate details and historical significance of this document make it a captivating piece of English heritage.
