notes Jackson (1972) –
  • Writing commences small, then varies in size (p.12)
  • It could date from the early to mid-12th century and must date from after 1038 at the earliest, as this is when Máel Snechta, whose grant he records, became mormaer of Moray (p.13)
  • Contemporary with B; late 11th/early 12th centuries? (p.16)
