Holding arrangement: sole Share / interest: The source identifies Siward as lord of one Acklam component, but does not quantify his share in relation to the whole later manor. Shared holding: Acklam component: pre-Conquest holding Narrative / explanation: Domesday evidence records Siward as the lord in 1066 of one Acklam holding. The source does not establish that this component was identical in extent to the later Crown manor, nor does it record the conveyance by which it came into the hands of the two unnamed men recorded in 1086.

Shared holding: Acklam component: Orm's land Narrative / explanation: Domesday records Orm as lord in 1066 and Count Robert of Mortain as tenant-in-chief and lord in 1086 for this Acklam component. The entry describes the land as waste in 1086. This is evidence for a component of the later locality, not proof that Count Robert held the complete later Crown manor of Acklam.

Shared holding: Acklam component: land of Count Robert of Mortain Narrative / explanation: Count Robert of Mortain held one Acklam component in 1086.

Previous holder: Waltheof Holding arrangement: sole Share / interest: A separate Barthorpe component, not demonstrably the whole later Acklam Manor. Shared holding: Barthorpe component: land of Count Robert of Mortain Narrative / explanation: Domesday records Waltheof as the 1066 lord of one Barthorpe component and Count Robert of Mortain as tenant-in-chief and lord in 1086. The entry describes the holding as waste in 1086. This component is relevant to the place named in the manor record but cannot be assumed to have formed part of the later Acklam Manor without further medieval evidence.

The date of acquisition and the intervening descent are not stated. Holding arrangement: sole Share / interest: The manor as described in the late nineteenth-century source. Shared holding: Acklam Manor: Crown holding Narrative / explanation: A late nineteenth-century account of Acklam parish states expressly that the manor belonged to the Crown. The same account lists several private landowners in the township and separately describes a 975-acre estate in Barthorpe as a distinct manor belonging to Lady Mary G. Vyner. Accordingly, this entry is limited to the Crown's Acklam Manor and does not include the Vyner Barthorpe estate. The source does not reveal when or by what instrument the Crown acquired the manor. Source citation: Bulmer's Directory and Gazetteer of East Yorkshire, entry for Acklam Parish, published 1892, statement that 'the manor belongs to the Crown'.
