Wareham,
Dorset
in the Domesday Book
"In Wareham
in the time of King Edward there were 120 houses in
the king's demesne. This vill was assessed for every
service of the king and paid geld for 10 hides, that
is, 1 silver mark for the king's housecarls excepting
the customs which belonged to the farm of 1 knight.
There were 2 moneyers each paying 1 silver mark to
the king and 20s, when the coinage was changed. Now
there are 70 houses, and 73 have been completely destroyed
from the time of Hugh the sheriff." |
