MS 2 reads 'lacu' Back to text
4
MS 2 reads 'grunde'; L918.0 reads 'grinde'; possibly a stream-name *grinda (grinder) based on the verb grindan (to grind); cp. 'grindan broc' in S1277 (L1277, bounds of Nursling, Hants.) from the Old Minster Winchester archive Back to text
5
'ætten pen' in MS 2 and in L918.0; on the face of it, 'Ætta's fold' (Ætta is listed in PASE) but cp. Pen Hill, so this might be interpreted as 'at the hill', although note the 'ættan' spelling later in the text Back to text

'medemunga' in MS 2 and in L918.0 Back to text

MS 2 reads 'lace'; L918.0 reads 'læce' Back to text

But note that 'MS 2 and in L918.0 read 'hnottan' (bare), so this is likely to be a scribal misreading Back to text
