Solinga, a Solin, a measure of land peculiar to Kent. In
Doomsday
we have, "In communi terra Sancti Martini sunt cccc acre et
dim., quae fiunt
duos solinos et dimid." Agard considers that dim. refers
to "hundred,"
and not to "acre," which makes the passage tantamount
to "450 acres
being equal to two and a-half Solins;" thus the Solin would
be 180 acres,
but he considers it to be, "after English account," 216
acres, and "after
Norman tale," 180 acres.
2 Uikham? We have represented the three minims with which the
word commences, by Ui.
