* BBC Domesday Project, a partnership between Acorn Computers Ltd, Philips, Logica and the BBC with some funding from the European Commission's ESPRIT programme, to mark the 900th anniversary of the original Domesday Book, an 11th century census of England.

In 1986, the BBC released the BBC Domesday Project, the results of a project to create a survey to mark the 900th anniversary of the original Domesday Book.

The project's first case study was the multimedia BBC Domesday Project created by the BBC between 1985 and 1986.

It was, however, chosen by the British Broadcasting Corporation ( BBC ) for the BBC Domesday Project in the mid-1980s, a school-based project to commemorate 900 years since the original Domesday Book in England.

In 1986, a SCSI-equipped Laserdisc player attached to a BBC Master computer was used for the BBC Domesday Project.

A prime example of this is the BBC Domesday Project.

Untangling copyright issues also presented a significant challenge for projects attempting to overcome the obsolescence issues related to the BBC Domesday Project.

It is likely that the Domesday Project will not be completely free of copyright restrictions until at least 2090, unless copyright laws are revised for earlier expiration.

An earlier, but essentially identical, version of LD-ROM developed by Philips called LV-ROM ( LaserVision Read Only Memory, " LaserVision " being Philips ' own brand name for the laserdisc technology ), was used for the BBC Domesday Project for the storage of analog video / audio and digital data on a laserdisc.

William ordered the compilation of the Domesday Book, a survey of the entire population and their lands and property for tax purposes, which reveals that within twenty years of the conquest the English ruling class had been almost entirely dispossessed and replaced by Norman landholders, who also monopolised all senior positions in the government and the Church.

Hastings was shown as a borough by the time of the Domesday Book ( 1086 ); it had also given its name to the Rape of Hastings, one of the six administrative divisions of Sussex.

A cognate name also existed in Old English ( Anglo-Saxon ), in the name of the village Woolland in Dorset, England: this was written " Winlande " in the 1086 Domesday Book, and it is interpreted as ' meadow land ' or ' pasture land '.

The Inquisitio Eliensis is a record of the lands of Ely Abbey ; and the Exon Domesday ( so called from the preservation of the volume at Exeter ), which covers Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Somerset, Wiltshire ( however only one manor of Wiltshire is included and parts of Devon, Dorset and Somerset are also wanting ) also all contain the full details supplied by the original returns.

In the Domesday Book the town is listed as Brugie, while Brugia was also used.

Though Bermondsey's earliest written appearance is in the Domesday Book of 1086, it also appears in a source which, though surviving only in a copy written at Peterborough Abbey in the 12th century, reliably describes earlier events.

It is also thought that similarly to how Kingston upon Thames appears in Domesday Book of 1086 as Chingestone and Chingetun ( e ), with ching being old English for king, that Chingford could relate to the King's river, and Kings Ford.

Kew is also the home of Domesday Book which is on public display at The National Archives ( previously known as the Public Record Office ).

The parish church also pre-dates the Domesday Book.

* St Mary the Virgin Church ( also called Old Bexley Church )-in Bexley, dates back to the Domesday Survey *

Domesday Book shows that a man named Hereward held lands in the parishes of Witham on the Hill and Barholm with Stow in the south-western corner of Lincolnshire as a tenant of Peterborough Abbey ; prior to his exile, Hereward had also held lands as a tenant of Croyland Abbey at Crowland, eight miles east of Market Deeping in the neighbouring fenland.

Weybread mill is also noted in the Domesday survey.

The town is also mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, as a market town where the local people came to barter their goods.

* A survey of royal privileges is conducted, which is included in the Hundred Rolls, an English census seen as a follow up to the Domesday Book completed in 1086 ; the Hundred Rolls is later completed with two larger surveys in 1274 / 1275 and 1279 / 1280.

Wells was listed in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Welle, from the Old English wiells, which was not listed as a town, but included four manors with a population of 132, which implies a population of 500 – 600.

It was included in the latter in the Domesday Book.

Hendon is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, but the districts of Barnet, Edgware and Finchley were not referred to possibly because these areas were included in other manors.

Aldershot was included as part of the old Hundred of Crondall referred to in the Domesday Book of 1086.

As it existed at the time of the Domesday Survey in 1086, the extensive settlement of Crondall in the north-east corner of Hampshire was certainly Scandinavian, for among the customs of that great manor, which included Crondall, Yateley, Farnborough, and Aldershot, that of sole inheritance by the eldest daughter in default of sons prevailed, as over a large part of Cumberland, and this is a peculiarly Norse custom.

At the time of the Domesday Book, the river formed the northern boundary of an area of land ( known as Inter Ripam et Mersam ) that was included in the Domesday information for Cheshire, though it was probably not formally part of the county of Cheshire.

Historically a part of Cheshire, the area was first mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 when it was a large estate which included neighbouring Cheadle.

It is also possible that the ' rape of Arundel ' that is twice mentioned in the Domesday Book was the later rape of Arundel and not the whole ' rape of Earl Roger ( of Montgomery )', which included the later rape of Chichester.

The shire probably originated as a county of the Kingdom of Northumbria, but was much fought over, and by the time of the Domesday Book it and other hundreds in between the Ribble ( which at the time represented the border with Scotland ) and Mersey rivers ( called " Inter Ripam et Mersam " in the Domesday Book ) were included with the information about Cheshire, though it cannot be said clearly to have been part of Cheshire.
