Notes
*Hoare, Modern Wilts., ii. 82; Grundy, Wilts. 1919, pp. 293-5, bounds probably describe south-western part of modern parish of Wilton; Darlington 1955, p. 92, tentatively assigns to Wilton parish; Finberg, ECW, no. 289, authentic, indiction and regnal year point to 959; HRH, p. 229, possibly genuine but doubtful, subscriptions are consistent with 958 x 959; Keynes 1980, p. 112, no conclusive argument against authenticity; cf.
