Notes

*Darlington 1955, p. 89; Watkin 1956, p. 213 and n. 80, some very doubtful features; Finberg, ECW, no. 311, authentic; John 1966, p. 280; HRH, p. 231, doubtful although the subscriptions are consistent, apart from the three Æthelwolds (? a scribal error); Wormald 1988, no. 42; cf. S 1582, a set of bounds for Eastcourt which may originally have belonged to S 796
