Abstract:		 The author argues that the landscape and locality of Clarendon Forest and Park (some 6 km east of Salisbury, Wiltshire) were strongly influenced by the presence (or, later, absence) of Clarendon Palace, which fell into decay in the late-fifteenth century. The first sure evidence of a royal residence at Clarendon dates from the reign of Henry I (1100--1135), although the site may well have Saxon connections. A primary aim of the work is to restore the wider conceptual landscape by considering the forest alongside the relict landscape of the park, and it is argued that, because medieval forests are archaeologically elusive, the best way to achieve this is through an intensive documentary methodology. Attention is drawn to the capacity of documents to illustrate how estates were managed over time. The argument, representing a systematic study of manuscript sources for Clarendon Park and Forest, is supported by references to printed primary sources. It has resulted in the compilation of a computer database listing relevant documents, from which those that might prove most useful were selected and transcribed. The transcriptions, arranged by subject, form several searchable electronic databases. The written sources have informed the structure of the work and help to illustrate that this landscape and locality was profoundly influenced by the existence of a royal park and palace at its centre. In the course of the study it has emerged that the forest, in turn, shaped the `lifecycle' of the palace in many ways. Includes a glossary of terms.
