Notes

*Stevenson 1914, p. 698 n. 44, spurious; Finberg, ECDC, no. 95; Finberg 1964, p. 113, cited; Chaplais 1966, pp. 19-21 (no. 19), MS 1 original (= 1981, XV pp. 19-21); HRH, p. 232, original, subscriptions are consistent; Hart, ECNE, p. 28 n. 1, p. 191, original; Whitelock, EHD, p. 379, said to have been written by Archbishop Sigeric; Keynes 1980, pp. 100, 111, 124, 135 n. 171, p. 251, original, archbishop's contribution may have been limited, overall formulation accords well with that of contemporary diplomas; Chaplais 1985, p. 44, may have been composed by Sigeric or under his supervision, but not likely to have been written by him, certainly not a product of a royal chancery; Padel, CoPNE, p. 151; Olson 1989, pp. 74-7; Heslop 1992, p. 310 n. 43, on imposing visual appearance; Hooke 1994, p. 21, cited; Kelly, Abingdon, pp. 000-000???, on production
