Framland
Framland was a hundred in north-east Leicestershire, England, roughly corresponding to today's borough of Melton. It was recorded in the Domesday Book as one of Leicestershire's four wapentakes.
The name remains in use as a deanery of the Diocese of Leicester in the Church of England.
The original meeting place of the hundred was at Great Framland.[1]
