The column in which the mystery word occurs is 'Discharge or becoming non-effective: place'.

Looking back at previous pages the word in that column is always the same, until one comes to page 159 when the word Canterbury appears. On various pages before that you will find Canterbury and C'bury in various different hands. See example below

So I suggest your mystery word is also C[anter]bury. In fact looking back through the records I can’t see anywhere else than Canterbury/C.bury ever being mentioned.

Brilliant; thanks JenB! I'll note that down now.
