The 1086 Domesday survey records the settlement of Hampton, entered under the hundred of Duddeston in Cheshire. The survey assessed Hampton at 3 carucates of taxable land.
Most significantly, Hampton is recorded as waste in 1086 — land rendered uninhabitable and valueless. Before the Conquest, the settlement had been assessed at 10d; by 1086 that value had collapsed entirely. This pattern — prosperity before 1066, devastation by 1086 — is the unmistakable signature of the Harrying of the North, William I’s campaign of systematic destruction across Yorkshire in 1069–70.
