This Gazetteer is intended to supplement the other volumes of The
Domesday Geography of England by providing an index of place-names
together with maps showing their location. The number of separate
places named in the Domesday Book amounts to over 13,400. They are
often mentioned more than once in different spellings, with the
result that the number of entries in the index exceeds 36,000. Both
Domesday names and their modern equivalents are given, thus showing
how the various Domesday names have been identified. The
arrangement is intended to be useful to those who approach the
Gazetteer either from the point of view of modern names or from
that of Domesday names. The 65 pages of maps show the distribution
of Domesday places against a background of relief and rivers.
Although designed primarily for readers of The Domesday
Geographies, the Gazetteer will also be of use to others who work
in the field of English medieval history and geography.
