^{page 36 note 3} It appears in the forged charter of Edgar for Glastonbury quoted by William of Malmesbury in the third recension of his Gesta Regum (ed. W. Stubbs (RS, 1887–9), i. 170).

^{page 36 note 4} The clauses concerning the abbey's liberties seem also to have provided the basis for a spurious charter of William I for Battle (Man.

^{page 49 note 1} This land may be identified with the Domesday holding of Henry de Ferrers in Reading (VCH Berks, i. 334), which appears to have been given to Tutbury Priory, probably before the foundation of Reading, and subsequently, according to Pope Alexander III's confirmation to Tutbury (dated 1162–3), exchanged for Brincheale (unidentified) by ‘King Henry’ (Cartl. Tutbury, 24). Since this probably refers to Henry I, the Robert de Ferrers named in Henry II's confirmation to Reading is probably Henry de Ferrers’ son, who succeeded him by 1130 and died in 1139.
