Notes:
*@Swanton 1996, p. 146 n. 1 mentions: 'Stenton, Anglo-Saxon England, p. 383, note 1, suggests that this phrase [sc. 'Seven Boroughs'], which does not occur again, includes the five Danish boroughs of Lincoln, Stamford, Leicester, Nottingham and Derby (sc. Annals 942, 1013) with, in addition, Torksey (Lincolnshire), and probably York.'
