Notes

*Grundy, Gloucs., pp. 44-7, on bounds, estate included south-west part of Bickmarsh parish and Ullington in Pebworth; PN Warwicks., p. 201 n. 2, impossible to correlate ancient and modern bounds excpet for a few points, perhaps because survey included a lost Suthtun; Drögereit 1952, p. 69, dubious; John 1960, pp. 87-8, dubious; Davies 1972, pp. 469, 472, cited; Finberg, ECWM, no. 302, authentic, incorrect regnal year, suggests that, while the original grant may be dated 967, the assignment to St Mary's may be 973; Hooke 1990, pp. 174-7, on bounds, with map p. 175; Hart 1992, p. 592 n. 93, witness-list points to 975, which was presumably when the estate was assigned to Worcester; Barrow 1996, p. 91
