782 Notification and confirmation by the dean and the master of the school of St Edward of Shaftesbury (Seftebyr'), judges-delegate of Pope Gregory IX, quoting the papal commission, of the settlement before them in the church of St Nicholas at Wilton (Wilton') [Wilts.] of the dispute between Simon, rector of the church of Compton (Cumton') belonging to the abbess of Wherwell (Werewellö) [Hants.], and Reading Abbey over the tithes which the abbey receives within the parish of Compton and which Simon claims belong by common right to his church. The abbey, appearing by R. its sacrist, has ceded the tithes to the said church and rector and his successors in perpetuity, in return for an annual payment of 8s to the sacrist at Reading within the octave of Easter. Both parties have bound themselves by a corporal oath to observe this settlement, submitting themselves to the jurisdiction and coercion of the archdeacon of Berkshire and the [rural] dean of Newbury (Neubir') in this regard. The abbey may resume possession of the tithes if the payment is not made by the stated term.
