Atlow in the Domesday Book (1086)

YEAR: 1086 HUNDRED: Hamston COUNTY: Derbyshire

The 1086 Domesday survey records the settlement of Atlow, entered under the hundred of Hamston in Derbyshire.

At the time of the survey, Atlow supported a recorded population of 2 villagers, 8 smallholders, working 2 ploughs between them.

The survey records Atlow’s value at 1 shilling 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.
