{7}The village and parish of Warmington was apparently owned by Peterborough Abbey from at least AD 963. In 1086 the village was surveyed for the Domesday Book; its value in comparison to that in 1066 indicates considerable growth and investment. The village seems originally to have comprised two separate components, Abbotsthorpe and Southorpe, which merged in a process of agglomeration around a series of greens.

{17} Warmington is first mentioned in the Domesday Survey when it is described as Wermintone, which possibly means 'Estate of a man called Wyrma'. In Warmington 13 hides. Azor held it; he was a free man. Land for 14 ploughs. In lordship 4; 12 slaves; 36 villagers and 8 smallholders with 14 ploughs. Meadow 69 acres. Value before 1066 £10; now as much. In Warmington 1 1/2 hides. A man at arms holds from him. Azor held it freely before 1066. Value £20. What the man at arms has there is enumerated with the stock of the men who are in the Count's manor.
