Kelly, Glastonbury, p. 67, Charter granting land to a secular recipient during King Eadwig's reign that eventually became property of Glastonbury Abbey, p. 87, Charter preserved in the Glastonbury archive in favor of Beorhtric, thus supporting the case for S 570 or another version of the same charter having been located at Glastonbury at the close of the Anglo-Saxon Period, p. 145, Charter granted by Beorhtric with the special instruction that the land entailed never be alienated, p. 174, Charter granted by a nobleman to Glastonbury Abbey with the consent of King Eadwig, although the high number of such charters likely had more to do with the tenuous political situation of Eadwig's reign than any particular favor towards Glastonbury, p. 549, Charter mentioned in the index of the Liber Terrarum that is no longer present in the archive of Glastonbury Abbey
