Notes

*Grundy, Somerset, pp. 216-21, on bounds; Forsberg 1950, p 19, on bounds; Finberg, ECW, no. 475, authentic but misdated, belongs to 956 x 958; Keynes 1980, p. 48 n. 89, certainly spurious, pp. 59-6, witness-list is 956 'Group Four', p. 66, spurious but modelled in part on a genuine 'Dunstan B' charter, p. 67 n. 127; Keynes 1994, pp. 176, 182, spurious in received form but based in part on a 'Dunstan B' charter, perhaps one of King Edgar, and in part on a charter of King Eadwig issued in 956
