1. Title: A Glimpse into the Past: The Domesday Book of Nottinghamshire The Domesday Book, an invaluable historical document from medieval England, offers a unique insight into the socio-economic conditions of Nottinghamshire during the late 11th century. This extract, taken from the Great Domesday Book, provides a snapshot of the resources, manors, and taxable values of the region at that time. Dating back to approximately 1085, the Domesday Book was commissioned by William the Conqueror to assess the resources and taxes of the newly conquered lands of England. The document is a testament to the meticulous survey and record-keeping abilities of the Norman administration. This particular excerpt from the Domesday Book focuses on Nottinghamshire, a county in the East Midlands of England. The record lists various manors and boroughs within the county, detailing the names of their lords, the number of households, the amount of arable land, meadows, woods, and other resources, as well as the value of the manor and the taxes owed. The information in the Domesday Book is essential for historians, archaeologists, and researchers studying the social, economic, and political history of medieval England. It provides valuable data on population, agriculture, land ownership, and the structure of feudal society. The Domesday Book is a remarkable survival from the Middle Ages, offering a fascinating glimpse into the past and shedding light on the lives of the people who lived in Nottinghamshire over a thousand years ago. This extract serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage that continues to shape our understanding of the past.
