Excerpt from The Register of the Priory of Wetherhal: Edited With Introduction and Notes
Some confusion is caused by the great variations of spelling, both in place names and personal names. When references or quotations are given, the spelling there used is retained and not necessarily that of the charter.
There are mistakes in the language and in the letters of the words of the charters, due to the transcriber or the original writer. These in some very glaring instances have been corrected.
