Notes
Larson 1910, p. 725 n. 28; Grundy, Hants. 1926, pp. 167-9, on bounds; Whitelock 1959, p. 83, cited; Finberg, ECW, no. 155, authentic; Chaplais 1966, p. 22, cannot be genuine if Lyfing was only appointed bishop in 1027 (= 1981, XV p. 22); Hart 1970/1, p. 34 (no. 156), authentic; HRH, p. 233, doubtful, subscriptions are consistent with 1027, the date of Bishop Lyfing's appointment; Keynes 1980, p. 27 n. 41, p. 126 n. 136, suspicious; Lawson 1993, p. 66 n. 29, p. 238, suspect, local production; Keynes 1994/1, p. 50, treats as authentic, may have been drawn up at Crediton, possible that Lyfing became bishop before 1027; John of Worcester, p. 513 n., on Lyfing's appointment
