  • R.B. Dobson (1967), "The Last English Monks on Scottish Soil: The Severance of Coldingham Priory from the Monastery of Durham 1461-78", The Scottish Historical Review, Vol. 46, No. 141, Part 1 (Apr., 1967), pp. 1-25 JSTOR 25528677
-- covers 1461-1478, and Durham's final fight for influence over the Priory, against Patrick Home, archdeacon of Teviotdale; and John Home, son of Alexander, 1st Lord Home.
Many of the texts can be found in this PhD thesis [1].
The thesis also refers to the following where the dispute is discussed: NAT Macdougall, James III: A Political Study (Edinburgh, 1982), 103,225-8,23 1; N Macdougall, 'The Struggle for the priory of Coldingham, 1472-1488', IR XXIII (1972), 102-14; Supp. Nos. 21,46.1,64,78, doi:10.3366/inr.1972.23.2.102
-- though in the view of Dobson an "adequate history of the monastery has yet been written" (p.4) ... "there seems to be no point in attempting to correct the extraordinary number of errors and misconceptions to be found in [the works above] (p.4 n2).
