Domesday Book

Radworthy was situated in the hundred of South Molton, one of thirty two ancient administrative units of the county of Devon.[2] RAORDIN ("Radworthy", including today's division of North and South) is listed in the Domesday Book of 1086 as the 19th of the 46 holdings of William Cheever, a Devon Domesday Book tenant-in-chief, who held it in demesne. The Domesday Book entry for RAORDIN[3] stated a population of 8 villagers and 4 slaves in 1086. It was then valued at 60 shillings for tax purposes. The land value in 1099 had been only 15 shillings. It had been held immediately prior to the Norman Conquest of 1066 by "Alward son of Toki". The land at RAORDIN (North and South Radworthy) was sufficient for three ploughs. There was in addition 1 acre of meadow, 40 acres of pasture and woodland measuring 1 league long and 1 furlong wide. The livestock present in 1086 were 10 cattle, 4 pigs and 50 sheep.[4][5][6]
