De combustione castrorum Scroneyteh et Biverivate.c.
The Fall of Scroneyteh and Biverivate
Carsowite abandons Scroneyteh and Biverivate under pressure from the Teutonic brothers, who then burn both camps, leaving all three desolate to this day.
In the same year, in autumn, Carsowite, seeing that they could no longer hold out against the brothers, abandoned two of their camps — Scroneyte and Biverwate — and withdrew; the brothers later burned both of these camps, and so all three camps remain desolate to this day.

Eodem anno in autumno Carsowite videntes, quod amplius fratribus resistere non possent, relictis duobus suis castris, scilicet Scroneyte et Biverwate, recesserunt, que duo castra fratres postea combusserunt, et sic hec tria castra usque in presentem diem remanent desolata.
