Notes

Robertson, Charters, pp. 348-9, reference to Abbess Eadgifu (of Nunnaminster) is perhaps an interpolation; Quirk 1962, p. 175; Finberg, ECW, no. 121, authentic; Hart 1970/1, p. 24 (no. 11), authentic, dates ? 970 x 975; Biddle and Hill 1971, p. 70 n. 5, on Winchester topography; HRH, pp. 223, 235, probably genuine, if Eadgifu is indeed Edgar's daughter then the charter must be dated c. 975; Biddle et al. 1976, pp. 267, 275, 283, 315, 322, 323, on Winchester topography; cf. S 807.
