  • It is here declared that Brihtric Grim grants the estate at Rimpton to the Old Minster after his death, together with the hide which he afterwards acquired in addition to that estate; and he presents to the Old Minster, the title-deed which King Edred granted, as a supplement to the old title-deed which King Athelstan granted; on condition that he is to have the use of the estate as long as his life lasts, and afterwards it is to go to that foundation, stocked as it is with cattle and men and all things, for the comfort of his soul. Of this the following are witnesses: Archbishop Dunstan, and Bishop Æthelwold, and Bishop Ælfstan, and Abbot Æthelgar, and the community at Glastonbury, and the two communities of the Old and New Minsters in Winchester.
