About the book

Domesday Book was the enormous survey of landholding and resources commissioned by William the Conqueror in 1085-86. It records estates, landowners, villages, livestock and economic resources across much of England, providing an extraordinary picture of the country shortly after the Norman Conquest. It remains one of the most important documentary sources for medieval English history.
