North of the Thames the system is more stable. Also it is more artificial, for north of the Thames civil and military geography coincide. Let us now look once more at the Oxford of Domesday Book.

He has a house of 6d. which is constructively at Shipton; one of 4d. at Bloxham; one of 30d. at Risborough and two of 4d.英文原著 · 《Domesday Book and Beyond》
One of the most remarkable instruments that has ever been employed in studying the heavens was the mural quadrant which Tycho erected in one of the apartments of Uraniborg.
