Notes

*Bridgeman 1916, p. 89; Hart, ECNE, no. 84, probably a post-Conquest forgery, suggests connection with Church Eaton, Staffs.; Sawyer, Burton, p. 16, too many unusual features to be accepted without question as authentic; Keynes 1980, p. 112, on notification formula; Gelling 1981, p. 6, not Church Eaton; Hooke 1983, pp. 32, 56 n. 99, insufficient evidence to confirm identification with Water Eaton, near Penkridge, Staffs.; Hart 1992, p. 313, post-Conquest forgery; Keynes 1994/2, p. 1140 n. 1, cited with reference to formulation
