Notes
Stevenson 1896, p. 732 n. 1, authentic; Grundy, Berks. 1926, pp. 61-3, on bounds; Oleson 1955, p. 152, doubtful; HRH, p. 234 and n. 1, subscriptions are consistent, apart from Abbot Ordric of Abingdon; PN Berks., i. 11, iii. 659, same bounds as in S 855; Barlow 1979, pp. 154-5, on witness-list; Gelling, ECTV, no. 132, authentic; Keynes 1980, p. 11 n. 16, on formulation; Kelly, Abingdon, no. 145, probably a very early forgery.
