Garriston in the Domesday Book (1086)
The 1086 Domesday survey records the settlement of Garriston, entered under the hundred of Land of Count Alan in Yorkshire. The survey assessed Garriston at 3.5 carucates of taxable land.
At the time of the survey, Garriston supported a recorded population of 6 villagers, 2 smallholders, 2 slaves, working 4 ploughs between them.
The survey puts Garriston’s value at 3 shillings, the same as before the Conquest. Unchanged valuations are relatively rare in the North, where disruption was widespread.
