Notes

*HS, p. 280, spurious; Grundy, Gloucs., pp. 64-71, boundary survey a clumsy forgery; Levison 1946, pp. 8, 264, spurious or dubious, has same preamble as S 133; PN Gloucs., ii. 4, 7, on bounds; Finberg, ECWM, no. 202, spurious; Scharer 1982, p. 247, spurious; Hooke 1990, pp. 40-3, rejects Grundy's interpretation of bounds, survey does indeed relate to Childswickham but was copied later than 706.
