English translation
The name Jordet or Gerdi means a fenced piece of land.
In a lawsuit between Brokka and Jordet in 1617 we hear about Karl Jordet. Knut Augundson of Brokka should have taken the abandoned farm Nerisjordet from him without law and judgment. The Brokka folks testified that they believed this was another abandoned farm named Kyrkjeteigen. Olvar Eikeland testified that Kyrkjeteigen was an abandoned farm between Heggli and Nerisjordet.
