Background
History
Hambledon appears in Domesday Book of 1086 as Hameledune held overall by Rannulf from Edward de Sarisber (Salisbury). Its Domesday assets were: 3 hides of land; 7 ploughlands, 1 mill worth 2s 6d, 3 acre of meadow, woodland worth 30 hogs. It rendered £5 per year to its feudal overlords. In the 16th century, part of its land was mined for iron ore. This became replaced by the 18th and 19th centuries by brickmaking. A local traditional legend claims there is buried treasure at Tolt Hill, near Hambledon, but no one has searched for it because it belongs to the Devil.
