1
Perhaps in error for the more usual 'on ece yrfe' (in perpetual inheritance) Back to text
2
OE 'dic' can mean both 'ditch' and 'dyke' throughout this boundary clause Back to text
3
The earlier name for the river Corfe Back to text
4
Cp. 'aueres' in S632 (L632.0, bounds of Corfe and Blashenwell); 'auene' (Avon) is a common river-name Back to text
5
Note that Hæcga is a personal name attested in PASE (but LangScape's headword 'hecg' includes also the grammatically weak form 'hecge', so that is also a possibility Back to text
6
The river Wych again Back to text
7
Probably 'begh' in error for 'bedd', although the following phrase may be the one in error Back to text
8
The name survived until recently as Hollish. Cp. 'olle discan' in L632.0 and 'on alleƿwiscan of alle discan' in S534 (L534.0, bounds of land in the Isle of Purbeck) Back to text
9
Possibly in error for 'ealdan' here, but cp. a seemingly unambiguous instance in 'þara ealdena dala' in S374 (L374.0, bounds of Micheldever, Hants.) Back to text
10
Cp 'strutheardes' in L534.0; this may be an otherwise unattested personal name but is as likely to be a place-name with OE '*strut' (dispute) as its first element Back to text
11
Cp. 'schort mannes pol' in S534 (L534.0, bounds of land in the Isle of Purbeck) Back to text
