This boundary clause appears to be a reworking into Latin of an earlier (now lost) Old English text Back to text
2
MS 2 reads 'Daunteseye'; this is the feature which gives the name to Dauntsey itself, but its etymology is unclear Back to text
3
This may be a personal name Back to text
4
The personal name Bud(d)a is recorded in PASE; but 'budda' (ostensibly 'beetle') seems to have some sort of topographical meaning and can't be ruled out Back to text
