Boyle's law: 'The absolute pressure exerted by a given mass of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to the volume it occupies if the temperature and amount of gas remain unchanged within a closed system.'

Boyle's law has nothing to do with water absorbing gasses.

I found a map online, dated from 1583, which shows the area of Norfolk where I live (Guiltcross) as part of Suffolk. All maps from before and after this date have the area as part of S. Norfolk.

The map was an official document commissioned by Lord Burleigh on behalf of Elizabeth I.

I know that Elizabeth I and Mary Tudor both lived at different times in Kenninghall Place (shown on the map as "Keanygale") which was the seat of the Duke of Norfolk, and I wonder if that might be something to do with it.

Does anyone have an idea why a part of Norfolk would briefly become a part of Suffolk in the late 16th century?
