What is the Domesday Book?

Saturday 11 December 2021, 2.00PM to 5.00pm

Speaker(s): Cristina Figueredo BA MA PhD

Unique in medieval history, the Domesday Survey is a fundamental part of the English heritage. There is no comparable medieval record of a complete country, manor-by-manor. Over 12,500 entries in 40 gazetteers bear witness to the radical changes in land ownership after the Norman Conquest in 1066. This course will describe what the book actually is, how it was compiled, and it will analyse some of the entries, especially those referring to York and Yorkshire.
