Blomefield (1805-1810) writes: "E[dingthorp]. This town is not mentioned in Domesday Book, being accounted for under the lordships of Whitton, and Paston in this hundred, lordships of William Earl Warren, which extended into this village. [...] The Church is dedicated to All-Saints. In the reign of Henry III. Ao. 46 [i.e., 1262], a fine was levied between John de Warren Earl Warren, querent, and John de Sancta Fide, deforciant, of the advowson of this church, granted to the Earl; and in the reign of Edward I. the rector had 16 acres of land, but no manse". 1262 is the earliet date we found in Blomefield associated with this church, even though the actual building has 12th-century components. Lewis' Dictionary of 1848 notes simply that "the font is handsome". Listed in Cox-Harvey (1907) as a stone baptismal font of the Perpendicular period. In Pevsner & Wilson (1997): "C14. Two elongated trefoiled arches against the stem panels, quatrefoiled bowl." Raised on a two-step plinth. The wooden font cover is octagonal and flat. Described and illustrated in Knott (2005).
