Notes
*Grundy, Hants. 1926, pp. 187-9, bounds are probably those of Chilland in Martyr Worthy, possibly also incorporating part of Itchen Abbas; Finberg, ECW, no. 56, authentic basis, formulas are of Athelstan's time but witness-list is composite, part 9th- and part 10th-century; Hart 1970/1, p. 34 (no. 157), authentic basis; O'Donovan 1972, p. 38, very suspect; Sawyer, Burton, p. 8, very suspicious; Whitelock 1979, p. 77, spurious; Keynes 1980, p. 44 n. 81, forgery based on a genuine charter of King Athelstan; Keynes and Lapidge 1983, p. 281 n. 1, spurious, appears to combine elements from charters of Alfred and Athelstan
