Each hundred had a 'fyrd', which acted as the local defence force and a court which was responsible for the maintenance of the frankpledge system.[1] They also formed a unit for the collection of taxes.[2] The role of the hundred court was described in the Dooms (laws) of King Edgar. The name of the hundred was normally that of its meeting-place.[3] It is also known as Houndsborough Barwick and Coker Hundred.[4] There were 11 places listed at the time of the Domesday Book,[5] however at the time the hundreds were called Hundesbera and Licget or Liet. Licget or Liet. It was also called Coker Hundred at a later time.[6] It consisted of the ancient parishes of: Barwick, Chilton Cantelo, Chinnock (East, Middle, and West), Chiselborough, Closworth, Coker, Hardington Mandeville, Haselbury Plucknett, Norton-under-Hamdon, Odcombe, Pendomer, North Perrott, and Sutton Bingham. It covered an area of {{convert|18,890|acre|ha}}.[7] The importance of the hundred courts declined from the seventeenth century. By the 19th century several different single-purpose subdivisions of counties, such as poor law unions, sanitary districts, and highway districts sprang up, filling the administrative role previously played by parishes and hundreds. Although the Hundreds have never been formally abolished, their functions ended with the establishment of county courts in 1867[8] and the introduction of districts by the Local Government Act 1894.[9] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/types/status_page.jsp?unit_status=Hundred |title=Administrative Units Typology | Status definition: Hundred |publisher=Vision of Britain |date= |accessdate=2010-01-31}} {{Hundreds of Somerset}}2. ^{{cite web|title=The Shire and the Hundred|url=http://www1.somerset.gov.uk/archives/ASH/Shirehundred.htm|publisher=Somerset County Council|accessdate=13 October 2011}} 3. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.ucl.ac.uk/archaeology/project/assembly/summary.htm | title=Summary | publisher=Institute of Archaeology| accessdate=15 October 2011}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/place/place_page.jsp?p_id=21199|title=Houndsborough Barwick and Coker|work=A vision of Britain through time|publisher=University of Portsmouth | accessdate=9 October 2011}} 5. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.domesdaymap.co.uk/hundred/houndsborough/|title=Hundred:Houndsborough|publisher=Open Domesday|accessdate=9 October 2011}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=https://hydra.hull.ac.uk/assets/hull:518/content |title=Somerset Introduction |publisher=University of Hull |format=Word |accessdate=11 April 2017 }} 7. ^{{cite web|title=Somerset Hundreds|url=http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/SOM/Miscellaneous/|publisher=GENUKI|accessdate=9 October 2011}} 8. ^County Courts Act 1867 (30 & 31 Vict. c. 142) s.28 9. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.geog.cam.ac.uk/research/projects/occupations/hundredmapping/ |title=Mapping the Hundreds of England and Wales in GIS | publisher=University of Cambridge Department of Geography|date=6 June 2008| accessdate=15 October 2011}} 1 : Hundreds of Somerset |
