WINDENAIE, Domesday Book manor in Whitchurch or really (EAST) WOODHAY
Morris associates this difficult Domesday Book name with a boundary mark 'whitan leasheal'='(at) the nook of Whitewood' in Whitchurch'; he does not spell out his reasons, simply citing earlier authorities, and concedes that its spelling bar the first 'n' could easily represent (EAST) WOODHAY, and that is what Gover takes it to be. Both Whitchurch and East Woodhay are in the appropriate hundred, Evingar.
