• Source: Hundreds of Derbyshire

The Hundreds of Derbyshire were the geographic divisions of the historic county of Derbyshire for administrative, military and judicial purposes. They were established in Derbyshire some time before the Norman conquest. In the Domesday Survey of 1086 AD the hundreds were called wapentakes. By 1273 the county was divided into 8 hundreds with some later combined, becoming 6 hundreds over the following centuries. The Local Government Act 1894 replaced hundreds with districts. Derbyshire is now divided into 8 administrative boroughs within the Derbyshire County Council area.




Domesday Book wapentakes



In the Domesday Book, Derbyscire (Derbyshire) was divided into the 6 wapentakes of Apultre, Hamestan, Littlechirch, Morlestan, Scarvedale, and Walecross, and a district called Peche-fers (Peak Forest). 16 named tenants-in-chief and King's thanes were granted lands in the county. King William the Conqueror was tenant-in-chief for 130 lands including Ashbourne, Bakewell, Chesterfield, Derby and Matlock. Henry de Ferrers was the tenant-in-chief for 110 lands. William Peverel held 18 lands including Bolsover and Castleton.

Medieval hundreds



Over the centuries the 6 wapentakes became 8 and then 6 hundreds: Appletree, High Peak, Morleston and Litchurch, Reporton and Gresley, Scarsdale, and Wirksworth. The dates over which this process happened are not clear but they are recorded as 8 separate hundreds in the Hundred Roll of 1273 and, whilst some were combined, they continued until the late 19th century (as reported in Magna Britannia Volume 5 in 1817 and in The National Gazetteer of Great Britain and Ireland of 1868).
