Why this spot
Domesday village enclosed out by about 1604
Small Domesday settlement held by the king, with ten to twelve taxpayers through the 14th and 15th centuries. It was abandoned by the early 17th century, probably through enclosure; its last inhabitants petitioned against enclosure in 1604.View source →
