    . THE HUNDRED-N AMES OF THE SOUTH-EASTERN COUNTIES I I ii;li! :/1, I :1 ill~ I iidlill' , ;1·"I" , Buckinghamshire The most interesting feature of the history of the Buckinghamshire hundreds is the grouping together of the Domesday hundreds of the county in threes, so that the nine modern hundreds correspond to 18 Domesday hundreds. The amalgamation seems to date approximately from the middle of the 13th century, though the hundreds may have been grouped together in this way as early as Domesday Book (VHBk I. 226 and reference). The modern Buckingham hd contains the Domesday hds of Stodlald, Rovelai I' and Lam2la, Ashendon those of Vofesdune, Tichesela and Essedene, lil~ Aylesbury those of Stanes, Riseberg and Elesberie, Cottesloe those of ',''',1 '1 i Mursalai, Erlai and Coteslau, and Newport those of Moleslou, Sigela,i and :"11' Bonestou. The three hundreds of southern Buckinghamshire, Desborough, Burnham and Stoke, were also grouped together as 'the Chiltern Hundreds', but here each hundred retained its separate identity. The grouping of the hundreds in threes has a parallel in the Worcestershire and Warwickshire 'ship-sokes', on which see Engl. Hundr. Names XIX, PNWa XIX, H. M. Cam in Hist. Ess. in Honour of J.

On the right hand side of the manhole cover the tarmac is severley broken/depressed leaving a significant hazard to drivers and motorcyclists. This was only obvious to us after we had hit the pothole with the front off-side wheel. The force shocked driver and passenger and triggered the automatic door release mechanism to open and the drivers side parking light blew. The vehicle is a Mercedes C class with sports suspension. We are currently unaware of any further damage at this time but the impact was severe. Due to the type of road in questions and the number of cars travelling at speed there was no safe place to stop and take photographs but the area in questions would be obvious to any highway inspector.
