Notes

The VCH lists 11 parishes within this hundred. It did not exist in 1086. The district known as the Hundred of Ock by end of C12 was made up of the 1086 hundreds of Marcham and Sutton. Both these latter also included other parishes which went elsewhere over time. By 1316 it was as constituted in the VCH.
