Toltingtrough (or Toltingtrow) was a hundred in the Lathe of Aylesford in the county of Kent, England.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Toltingtrough Hundred )〕 This hundred is called, in some ancient writings, Toltetern and Tollentr, and in Domesday, Tollentru. In the return made of the several knights fees throughout England, by inquisition into the exchequer, in the 7th year of king Edward I, the archbishop of Canterbury appears to have been then lord of this Hundred. In the 20th year of king Edward III, on the levying 40 shillings on every knight's fee, this Hundred answered for four knights fees and a half.〔See The History and Topographical Survey of the County of Kent: Volume 1, author:Edward Hasted, publ. 1797〕 The hundred included the parishes of *Gravesend *Ifield *Luddesdown *Meopham *Milton *Northfleet *Nurstead The town of Gravesend was incorporated during the reign of Elizabeth I and encompassed the parishes of Gravesend and Milton.
