1
This boundary appears to be a reworking into Latin of earlier (now lost) material Back to text
2
Emended from 'lere'; MS 2 reads 'leie' Back to text
3
Presumably, but not necessarily, translating OE 'norþeweard' (the northern part of couch-grass tract); it may alternatively be a directional term Back to text
4
A common stream name Back to text
5
Possibly related to the 'quiccae' above, but if this is the case, it is unlikely to be the rare term 'cwice' (couch-grass) and might refer rather to a feature such as a stream Back to text
6
MS 2 reads 'welle' Back to text
7
Note 'sond heie' in S1577 (L1577.1, bounds of Brokenborough) and 'sandeheye/?heþe' in S1576 (L1576, bounds of Brinkworth) Back to text
8
MS 2 reads 'barande', written with suprascript 'ra' abbreviation Back to text
9
This section is particularly corrupt; probably here French 'del' (of the) plus perhaps 'pear-tree' Back to text
