UK History: Chapter 4, Exercise 2 — Possible Solution ====================================================================== CORRECTION The 95 percent figure applies to land in England south of the Tees, and the source gives it as approximate. It describes a transfer of land from English to Norman hands, not that Normans "owned 95 percent of England". REWRITE "By 1086, approximately 95 percent of land in England south of the Tees had been transferred from English to Norman hands." CAUTION I did not find whether the figure counts ownership, lordship or income.
