    The town was recorded as Gravesham in Domesday Book in 1086 as belonging to Odo, Bishop of Bayeux: the name probably derived from "graaf-ham": the home of the Reeve, or Bailiff, of the Lord of the Manor. Another theory suggests that the name Gravesham may be a corruption of the words grafs-ham – a place "at the end of the grove".[1] Frank Carr[2] asserts that the name derives from the Saxon Gerevesend, the end of the authority of the Portreve, (originally Portgereve), the officer in charge of the town. The Domesday spelling is the only historical record[clarification needed]; all other spellings – in the later (c. 1100) Domesday Monarchorum and in Textus Roffensis the town is Gravesend/Gravesende. Gravesham was however adopted in 1974 as the name of the new Borough.[3]
