  === Life Sketch ===
  Castle Combe, Wiltshire
  
  Castle Combe is a village and civil parish within the Cotswolds Area of Natural Beauty in Wiltshire, England. The village lies about 5 miles (8 km) northwest of the town of Chippenham. There was a castle in the area, built in the 1100s, but it was demolished centuries ago.
  
  ....The village takes its name from the 12th-century castle which stood about 1⁄3 mile (500 m) to the north. Only the earthworks are still visible since the castle was abandoned in the late 1300s. The castle is believed to have been built by the first Baron, Reginald de Dunstanville, circa 1140; "Castell of Cumbe" stood on an ancient site used by the Britons.
  
  The settlement was listed in the Domesday Book of 1086, with 33 households; the Lord was Humphrey de l'Isle.[4]

  "Ashton Gifford is covered in the Domesday Book, listed as land belonging to Humphrey de l'Isle. The land was held by Robert, previously (under King Edward) having been held by Cynewig. Ashton Gifford was a relatively prosperous estate, valued at six pounds (from four pounds in 1066). The estate consisted of 12 acres (49,000 m2) of meadow, and pasture "6 furlongs long and as much broad".
  
  The site of the Anglo Saxon settlement can be seen in the field to the south of the current Ashton Gifford House, where different patches of colour in the earth indicate the sites of Anglo Saxon houses.
  
  There is reference to the manor being known as Ashton Dunstanville in the late 14th century."

  "BARONY OF DUNSTANVILL.
  In the Wiltshire Domesday, one Humphrey de Lisle (Humfridus de Insula) is recorded as holding of the King a Fief of not less than twenty-seven Manors. Of these it will suffice for our present purpose to name the following, viz. Broctone, Contone, Sterte, Cumbrewelle, Wili, Colerne, Poltone, Bedestone, Come, and Wintreburne.10
  Of this Humphrey de Lisle, I can say no more than that in January 1091, he was in attendance at Hastings on King William II, then about to embark for Normandy.11
  He appears to have left a daughter and sole heiress, variously called Adelina de Insula, and Adeliza de Dunstanville, for it was the custom of great heiresses to retain their paternal names after marriage. ..."
