Charter: BL Stowe Ch. 32
Description (from Electronic Saywer)
Hales 1890, on bounds; Napier and Stevenson, p. 85, dubious; Robinson 1911, p. 170, prints bounds in translation; Stevenson 1914, p. 702, late and clumsy fabrication; PN Middx, pp. 1, 3, 4, 6, 9, 50, 56, 57, 63, 111, 113, 165, and pp. 219-21, bounds of Blecceanham, pp. 221-2, bounds of Hampstead; Gelling 1954, on bounds, with a map; Brooke and Keir 1975, p. 369, dubious; Gelling, ECTV, nos 228-9, spurious; BA Facs., p. 10, consolidated record of the endowment of Westminster in 10th century; Dumville 1994, p. 156 n. 125, p. 161, on script of MSS 1, 2.
Notes: This is a composite charter, apparently put together in the late tenth century from a series of separate records. MS 3 preserves the only full version of the text. MSS 1 and 2 appear to be portions cut from an earlier single-sheet version of the full text. It seems likely that S 670, which contains the text of section 1, has been cut from another tenth-century copy of the composite charter.
