Tandridge Hundred

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tandridge was a hundred in what is now Surrey, England. It includes the borough of Tandridge.

It includes the parishes of Bletchingley, Caterham, Chelsham, Crowhurst, Farleigh, Godstone, Horne, Limpsfield, Lingfield, Oxted, Tandridge, Tatsfield, Titsey, Warlingham and Woldingham.[1]

The hundred has remained unchanged since the Domesday Book of 1086 where it was called Tenrige. It was noted[citation needed] that one sixth of all the serfs in Surrey belonged to the Tandridge hundred.

Custody of the hundred was granted to Thomas Hunt in the reign of James I.
