sample: Kertlington. Doomsd. Cherlington. I Suppose this the ancient meeting place of Southwell Hundred (mentioned in that place) and that it is corrupted into Chadlington Hundred, because of the very long disuse of this place. However the Conquerours Survey shows that in Cherlington, Vlf a Saxon (whom Gis[...]ebert de Gand succeeded in the chief part of his Estate in this County) had three Bov. ½. for the Geld. The Land two Car. But the Soc belonged to Southwell the Mannor of the Archbishop. There Gislebert had one Car. four Vill. having two Car. one Mill 16s. In the Confessours time the value of this was 40s. in the Conquerours when the Survey was taken 30s. (p. 321)
