Every word in Domesday Book has been classified according to such criteria as 'is it a place-name?', 'is it the name of a landowner?', 'does this word relate to taxation?', or 'does this word refer to the peasant population?'. These and other properties are also sub-classified to indicate the kind of place-name, the category of landowner, the type of text, etc. Properties are searchable in two ways:
Like other words, properties are not case-sensitive. When a search specifies a property, this will appear in the Check Results breakdown. For a complete list of properties and their mnemonic codes, see Text coding and its links. |
