History of Steventon The priory

There has been a settlement on Steventon's current site for over a thousand years.

The Domesday book, the national survey of 1086 commissioned by King William I, lists Steventon as being a settlement of up to 300 inhabitants covering approximately 2400 acres - almost exactly the same area of the current village.
