Hawade in the Domesday Book (1086)

The 1086 Domesday survey records the settlement of Hawade, entered under the hundred of Maneshou in Yorkshire. The survey assessed Hawade at 2 carucates of taxable land.

At the time of the survey, Hawade supported a recorded population of 2 villagers, 5 freemanmen, working 2 ploughs between them.

The survey records Hawade’s value at 12d in 1086. No pre-Conquest figure survives – not unusual in the North, where records were disrupted by the Harrying and by the patchy coverage of the survey.
