Did you know Ruddington is mentioned four times in the Doomsday Book?
As well as its own entry, our village also features in the entries for Rushcliffe, Plumtree and Bradmore. According to the Ruddington entry, the village boasted a grand total of 5 villagers, 2 smallholders and 4 freemen in 1066. And its taxable value to the Lord of the Manor, one Ulf Fenman, was a mere £1!
