Notes

*Napier and Stevenson, p. 88 n. 2, dates it 958-9; Bridgeman 1916, pp. 93-4; Grundy, Worcs. 1928, pp. 72-5, on bounds; PN Devon, p. 546 n.; Hart 1970/1, p. 14 n. 3, charter of Edgar as king of the Mercians, with Eadred's name substituted; Finberg, ECWM, no. 279, authentic; Hart, ECNE, p. 381, authentic basis, witnesses belong to Edgar's reign; Sawyer, Burton, p. 30 n. 1, Eadred's name apparently subsitututed for Eadwig's; Keynes 1980, p. 48 n. 85, on formulation; Hooke 1990, pp. 162-7, on bounds; Hart 1992, pp. 449-52, witness-list tampered with; Keynes 1994, pp. 175, 192 n. 109, probably spurious in received form, witness-list seems to be derived from 'Dustan B' charter, with the intrusion of 'Archbishop' Oscytel
