  • Barkby 1086-1524 Pp.46-61
    Barkby 1086-1524 by David Postles The earliest description of Barkby, as of most English villages, occurs in Domesday Book, compiled in 1086, but referring back also to 1066. 1 There is still some dispute as to why Domesday Book was produced - was it a fiscal record, the sequel to the earlier geld rolls, a basis for taxation? or was it rather a feudatory, a description oftenures? 2 The interpretation of the entries depends in some cases on the intent behind its production. When we read that there are 18 carucates in Barkby, do we take this to be an artificial tax assessment or a real measure­ ment ofland? Some historians have argued that the teamland entry is more significant 3 - there is land for 16 ploughs. This is probably true for places with an intensive arable husbandry. It is probably reliable for Barkby, although Barkby had non-arable resources in the Soar Valley meadows. What we do know is that Barkby was situated in the richest and most densely populated part of Leicestershire, in 1086. This is shown well in Holly's section on Leicestershire in The Domesday Geography of Midland England. 4 There were in the Middle and Upper Soar Valleys 10-12 people per square mile; 2-3 plough-teams per square mile; and meadow. Barkby was also in that area of Leicestershire which had come under Scandinavian influence. The placename itself reflects this. This is the area of carucates and bovates, not hides and virgates. The familiar Scandinavian duodecimal reckoning occurs here, particularly in the computation of small local hundreds in the Leicestershire Survey of 1124-9.
