 NOTES TO DOMESDAY MAP. (Compiled by L. F. SALZMANN.) In this map those manors in which the King had an interest are printed in scarlet ; a scarlet line denotes the Archbishop of Can- terbury's estates, and a black line those of the Bishop of Chichester. The boundaries of the Rapes — and of the Liberty of Battle Abbey — are indicated by broken scarlet lines, and those of the Hundreds by dotted black lines. In the northern portion of the county the boundaries of the Hundreds can be given only approxi- mately, as at the time of the survey this district was densely wooded. The small size of many of the Hundreds should be observed. Domesday often records a name in more than one form, but only one of the variants can be given on the map. For the sake of uniformity and convenience of reference, the boundaries of the county are shown as they stand at the present time. For the same reason the names of rivers are given in their modern forms, though they do not occur in Domesday, and are mostly of quite recent origin.
