1
The name survives as Cowley ('cuueleghe' c. 1200), 'leah' being a specific kind of resource usually comprising woodland Back to text
2
Perhaps for 'and' (influenced by Latin 'et'?) Back to text
3
Cp. 'midlisso' in MS 2 (probably 'middle slough' but both forms are corrupt and may be influenced by 'nedesslo' in the next phrase) Back to text
4
This appears to be 'nedes' as a misreading of 'neðer' Back to text
5
This appears to be a noun (drain?); alternatively read 'of fulere' (from the 'fulere') and note similar instances of apparent omision of the 'to' phrase Back to text
6
This may be 'brigtge' for 'brigcge', 'c' and 't' being often graphically confused, and see 'brigge' in the next phrase; but cp. 'bright' in MS 2 Back to text
7
On the basis of 'rith' for 'riht' in this text, suggesting here 'bithe' for 'bihte' Back to text
8
Although -en- is hard to explain here Back to text
