Translation of the section that mentions Greinton:

“In 1066 Wulfmer held it. In 1086 it belonged to Glastonbury Abbey, and Gerard the Ditcher was the lord under the abbey. There were 9 households: 2 smallholders, 5 slaves, and 2 others. There was land for 2.5 ploughteams, with 1 lord’s ploughteam and 1 men’s ploughteam. The estate also had 20 acres of meadow, 3 acres of woodland, 4 cattle, and 6 pigs. Its value was £2 10s in 1086, the same as when the abbey acquired it.”

In plainer terms, Greinton was a small manor in Domesday, with a modest population, a little arable capacity, some meadow and woodland, and livestock. It sat in the hundred of Whitley, Somerset, and was one of the lands of Glastonbury Abbey.
