- See <em>Lind. Cart.</em>, no. 73, which probably dates to 1235 × 42. Like that charter, this grant offers access to his woods to monks. Watt suggested a much earlier date for this charter (ca. 1215×20) based on Master John the physician, but the evidence for Conan’s activity points mainly to the period of vacancy in the earldom; note also that the confirmation by Conan’s son Eogan was made about a generation later.
