Notes

*Stevenson 1914, p. 692 n. 16, p. 698 n. 44, doubtful authenticity; Stenton 1918, p. 438 n. 29, spurious (= Stenton 1970, p. 53 n. 3); Finberg, ECWM, no. 196, authentic basis, indiction points to 678 or 693, text 'improved' by interpolation of extended immunity clause; Harrison 1973/1, pp. 552-3, cannot be regarded as authentic, but based on early source, possible that indiction miscopied; Harrison 1976, p. 67, use of incarnation date may be contemporary; Wormald 1985, p. 25, unreliable later copy, possibly genuine elements; Sims-Williams 1988, pp. 174-83, authentic basis, Winfrith perhaps error for Wilfrid; Hooke 1990, p. 20, on estate; Sims-Williams 1990, pp. 104-5, perhaps drawn up by Wilfrid or an associate, p. 375, on topography of Ripple estate.
