This archive contains digitised shapefiles of the administrative boundaries of England and parts of Wales as they are believed to have existed in AD 1086, as recorded in Domesday Book. The data-package consists of three ESRI shapefiles, describing three tiers of administrative district that can be reconstructed from Domesday Book, ranging from small (DBhundreds.shp) to large (DBshires.shp) in scale, with some areas also having intermediate (DBinter.shp) administrative divisions.
