Notes
*Stevenson 1914, p. 703, seems to be genuine; Wallenberg, KPN, pp. 36-7, on place-names; Ward 1939, pp. 17-20; Stenton 1971, p. 304, cited; Vollrath-Reichelt 1971, pp. 153-6; Campbell, Rochester, pp. xv, xxii, likely to be authentic; Scharer 1982, pp. 116-19, authentic basis but not genuine in present form; Wormald 1985, p. 25, broadly trustworthy; Kelly, St Augustine's, pp. lxxiii-lxxxv passim, on Kentish formulation
Notes: The date belongs to the confirmation, which may have been rather later than the initial grant
