St Briavels Hundred
Been meaning to ask about this for a while. I keep coming across the "Hundred" or "St Briavels Hundred" in my quest for ancestors. Obviously some kind of division. In Yorkshire we have the three "Ridings" or rather "Thrithings" to give it the correct title - a division of three, as is the Manx Three Legs - Isle of Man.
Can anyone give me an explanation of the origin of the Hundreds. Regards Jean
