 A HISTORY OF LEICESTERSHIRE In BUCHEMINEST [Buckminster] and SEUSTERN [Sewstern] 9 carucates and 4 bovates belonging to the fee of the bishop of Lincoln. 203 In the same place Robert de Ferrers half a carucate. 204 William Meschin 5 carucates. 205 In SESSEBIA [Saxby] King David 3 carucates. 206 Robert de Ferrers 3 carucates. 207 HUNDRED OF LONG CLAWSON In the same vill 16 carucates and a half and half a bovate. 208 In the same place Henry Tuchet 1 1 carucates less I bovate. 209 In HOUWES [Hose] 7 carucates and a half be- longing to the fee of Belvoir. 210 HUNDRED OF STAPLEFORD In the same vill 10 carucates belonging to the fee of Robert de Ferrers. 211 In WIMUNDEHAM [Wymondham] and in THORPE [Edmondthorpe] 27 carucates and a half belonging to the same fee. 213 Richard Basset 3 carucates and a half. 213 805 As in Domesday. " Not entered separately in Domesday, but very possibly included in the surplus assessment of Saxby. M Held by William Loveth in 1086. 06 Part of the Countess Judith's 5 carucates in S.ixhy. 07 Domesday assigns 5 carucates here to Henry de Ferrers as appurtenant to Stapleford. 03 Held by Robert de Todeni in 1086. ra This represents the Domesday fief of Robert ' Hostiarius,' which according to that survey com- prised 6 carucates in Long Clawson and 4! in Hose: io carucates as against loj carucates en- tered above. 10 Domesday assigns I o carucates here to Robert de Todeni. The Croxton Chartulary, however, puts the assessment of Long Clawson at 1 6 carucates and that of Hose at 12, giving a total of 28 carucates for the hundred as against 34^f implied here and 37 T V im- plied by Domesday. " Domesday assigns 14 carucates to Henry de Ferrers in Stapleford. 111 Held by Henry de Ferrers in 1086. 13 Held, as in Wymondham, by Robert de Buci in 1086. HUNDRED OF HARBY In the same vill and in Plungar 17 carucates belonging to the fee of William de Albini. 214 In the same vill Richard Basset i carucate. 218 In STACTHIRN [Stathern] William de Albini 8 carucates and a half. In the same place Roger de Mowbray 8 carucates. Robert de Insula I carucate and a half. 216 HUNDRED OF BOTTESFORD In the same vill and Muston and Normanton William de Albini 32 carucates. 217 In the same place Agnes de Gaunt 2 carucates. 218 In MOSTON [Muston] Robert de Insula I caru- cate and a half. 219 HUNDRED OF CROXTON KERRIAL In the same vill the count of Mortain 24 caru- cates. 220 In HARESTAN [Harston] the same count 12 carucates. 221 14 Plungar is not mentioned by name in Domesday, which however assigns 17 carucates in Harby to Robert de Todeni. 14 Held by Robert de Buci in 1086. 6 The 10 carucates which the present entry assigns to William de Albini and Robert de Insula represent Robert de Todeni's Domesday estate of 9 J carucates in Stathern. On the other hand, Geoffrey de Wirce, Roger de Mowbray's predecessor, held 8J carucates here as against the latter's 8 carucates, so that the total assessment of Stathern is the same in both surveys. It is noteworthy that the holdings of Robert de Todeni and Geoffrey de Wirce in Stathern were held by the same pair of undertenants, William de Boisrohard and an unknown Roger. 117 In Domesday Robert de Todeni is assigned 21 carucates in Bottesford, of which he possessed 9 carucates in demesne, the remaining 12 carucates being parcelled out among ten sub-tenants. There is no mention of either Muston or Normanton in Domesday, but the 3 carucates which Robert held in Redmile, and which are not accounted for here by name, may perhaps be included in the 3 z carucates given above for Bottesford. " This holding cannot be traced in Domesday. '" This estate probably formed part of the fief of Robert de Todeni in 1086, but it cannot be identified among the Domesday entries relating to the latter's lands. The king's in 1086. M1 Ibid. 354
