Domesday Book (Wilhelm Erobrerens Jordebog) fra 1086 var normannernes grundlag for skatteopkrævning i England, de erobrede 20 år tidligere.
Der er nok tale om en matrikel, men langt fra så detaljeret og fuldstændig som i dag. Den hedder på middelalderlatinLiber de Winlonia (dansk: Winchester-bogen), men blev i folkemunde kaldt Dommedagsbogen. Den fik sit navn i 1100-tallet, "fordi dens afgørelser ikke kan appelleres"..[1][2]
Værket omfatter ikke hele England. London er fx ikke med.
Oplysningerne i Domesday Book blev indsamlet mellem december1085 og august1086 af Vilhelm Erobrerenslegater (embedsmænd).
