===Smithdown=== Smithdown, referred to as ''Esmedune'' in the Domesday Book, and variously as ''Smededon'', ''Smeddon'', ''Smethesdune'', ''Smethedon'', ''Smethdon'', ''Smethden'',<ref name="toxteth" /> has been merged into Toxteth Park since the granting of the Liverpool Charter in 1207. The definite boundaries of Smithdown have never been fully recorded, but the name continued in use from 1207 until the 16th century, although it is thought to have reached from Lodge Lane to the eastern boundary of Toxteth Park. In 1066, Smithdown was held as a separate manor, by Ethelmund. During the reign of [[John of England|King John]] the Manor of Smithdown was taken from its owner, and the king gave him [[Thingwall]] instead.
