1075 Settlement between Reading Abbey and Elias of Englefield over the mill of Russiford [in Sulhamstead Abbots], with the assent of King Henry II and confirmed by Gervase Paynel, overlord of Elias, whereby the abbot and monks have remitted all complaints against Elias regarding the harm caused to their lands by the mill, on condition that they will have half the rents and profits of the same in perpetuity. They will find half the expenditure necessary for the mill, and those in charge of it shall be appointed by common counsel of both parties. Both Parties will have free multure of their demesne at the mill

Sciant filii sancte ecclesie presentes et futuri istam conventionem factam fuisse inter ecclesiam Radingensem et Heliam de Englefeld de molendino de Rissieford, assensu domini nostri Henrici regis Anglorum. Scilicet quod abbas et monachi Radingenses remiserunt querelas suas et calumpnias quas moverant adversus Heliam propter dampna et gravamina que per ipsum molendinum inferebantur terris ecclesie sue. Et hoc fecerunt tali tenore quod habebunt medietatem reddituum et proficuorum ipsius molendini in moltura et piscibus et in omnibus omnino rebus vel exitibus contra Heliam et heredes suos in perpetuum. Et invenient abbas et monachi medietatem omnium que in operibus vel necessitatibus ipsius molendini fuerint expendenda. Ministri autem et custodes ibi constituentur communi utriusque partis consilio et ipsi facient fidelitatem tarn ecclesie Rading(ensi) quam Helie et heredibus suis. Tam vero abbas et monachi Rading(enses) quam Helias et heredes sui habebunt quietantiam molture dominii sui perpetualiter in ipso molendino. Actum fuit hoc concedente Gervasio Painello domino ipsius Helye et sigilli sui impressione id confirmante. Huius conventionis testes fuerunt Robertus de Luci, Petrus de la Mara, Hugo de la Mara, Adam de Cathmera, Petrus de Stanford, et multi alii.
