Notes

*Stevenson 1899, pp. 36-7, suspicious, agrees mutatis mutandis with S 251, for proem see S 298; Grundy, Somerset, pp. 138-42, on bounds; Finberg, ECW, no. 380, authentic; Cox 1976, p. 25, on place-name; Edwards 1988, pp. 204-6, fabrication based on S 251, probably produced in later 10th century; cf. S 884.
