In nomine domini. Bishop Ealhferth and the community at Winchester have leased 8 hides of land at Easton for three lives to their dear friend Earl Cuthred and to Wulfthryth, his wife, and to one man of his own choice in addition, to hold and enjoy as may be best for him, free from every burden except the construction of bridges and military service and the payment of eightfold church dues and the priest's dues and burial fees. And they enjoin, in the name of the Almighty and of St Peter the Apostle and in the name of all the saints of God, that this estate shall be as completely subject to the lord and the community after the death of the three of them as it was on the day that they granted it to them. And this is done with the cognisance of the councillors whose names are recorded in writing below and marked with the symbol of the cross of Christ . . .

The boundary of the estate at Easton extends from the Itchen to the eagles' brook, and then along the brook out to the gate, then by the headlands to the midmost barrow, then to the east of ædeswyrðe, then out to the clearing to the east of the narrow hill, then out to the furrow which Wulfred caused to be made, then from the hill to the valley, then to the site of the mill, then from the site of the mill along the Itchen back to the eagles' brook.
