  • Summary

  • In this episode of Domesday Delving, we explore the coastal settlement of Lowestoft in Suffolk, a berewick of Gorleston held by Gyrth Godwinson before the Norman Conquest. We'll dive into what life was like in this small but significant agricultural community, its ties to one of the most powerful families in pre-Conquest England, and the changes that followed in the wake of William the Conqueror. Learn about the villagers, the woodland that supported the local pigs, and the fluctuating livestock numbers, all while piecing together the broader story of how the Domesday Book recorded and reshaped England’s landscape.
