^{page 55 note 2} One date leads to another: at p. 73 of H. P. R. Finberg's excellent little book on Gloucestershire, published in 1955, I see that the abbey was rebuilt ‘about 1320’; C. Woodforde (English Stained and Painted Glass, p. 13) gives the same date for the glass and places St. Edmund ‘in the upper part of the north side of the choir’, following Winston; no sooner was Winston's paper in print than Bell moved the saint to the south side, where he has been ever since. The lady chapel ceased to be the choir when the nave was rebuilt in 1877.

^{page 55 note 3} Many books wrongly say 1306, the year in which Edmund de Knulle became abbot.

^{page 56 note 2} All the entries from the various rolls are gathered together in Major-General Wrottesley's Crécy and Calais (Wm. Salt Archaeological reprint, 1898); I have checked the more important ones, and feel it unnecessary to give the detailed references to the original where the fact is not vital to the argument.

^{page 57 note 2} Mr. Kaines Smith, on the authority of Mr. A. Wagner, reported the names in the roll authentic but the arms a sixteenth-century addition. Some confusion has also arisen between the copy Rowe Mores transcribed and an Edward I roll he printed with it (Oxford, 1749).

^{page 63 note 3} Cole just numbers them without any key (except in the east window); Winston gives occasional indications which are not always clear.

^{page 65 note 1} B.M. Add. MS. 17463 was also mentioned by Hall Warren. It has some excellent drawings of and interesting notes about other parts of the cathedral, but for our present purpose we learn from it only that the glass in the east window (and presumably in the other windows of the then choir) was ‘shattered but largely original’ in 1820, whereas by 1835 there had been great alterations and ‘originality is destroyed’. This strongly suggests that no irreparable damage was done to the windows until the Reform Bill riots of 1831, when the adjacent bishop's palace was burned out. The notes of which this manuscript consists are of various dates from 1790 onwards, the handwriting peculiarly vile, the author the Rev. Mr. Powell.

Woodforde, op. cit., p. 92: ‘In Cheddar church and elsewhere the arms of Bishop Beckington show three yellow bucks’ heads on a white ground. The glass-painter probably knew that this was heraldically impossible, but he also knew that it was easier than making the shield with the bucks’ heads red, as they should be.’
