There are seven entries in Domesday, amounting in all to 6 hides 3½ virgates of land, relating to the hamlet of HOLME. Two of these holdings became, by the thirteenth century, absorbed in neighbouring manors. The first was the manor of 2 hides held by Ralph de Lisle, lord of Biggleswade manor in 1086, which by 1284 had become absorbed in Biggleswade. The second property was the hide of land held by Walter the Fleming at the time of the Survey, which subsequently became appurtenant to Langford manor. Another holder in Holme at the Survey was the Countess Judith, of whom Fulk of Paris held 3½ virgates. This property, which never attained the status of a manor, followed the same descent as Sutton (q.v.), and after the fifteenth century no further trace is found of it.
