Notes

Stenton 1913, p. 36; Robertson, Charters, p. 350; PN Berks., ii. 372, iii. 701, suggests Kingestune may be Kingston Lisle; Gelling, ECTV, no. 113, authentic; Hooke et al. 1987, on topography; Conner 1996, pp. xli-xlv, on textual relationships; Kelly, Abingdon, no. 115, authentic, identification with Kingston Bagpuize preferable.
