Click to view
There is an entry for Humbledon [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://domesdaymap.co.uk/place/TA2234/humbleton/] [accessed 30 July 2014], and it reports a priest and a church in it. A font here is listed in Cox & Harvey (1907) as a baptismal font of the Decorated period [NB: C&H use "Humbledon"]. The font consists of an octagonal basin with plain vertical sides that curve at the bottom into a chamfered underbowl equally plain down to a band of graded chamfer between two mouldings; the octagonal pedestal base is plain and ends below in a three-level graded lower base. Quadrangular plinth with kneeling stone, modern. Octagonal wooden cover, plain, with metal ornamentation and ring-handle, also modern. [cf. Index entry for Humbleton No. 2 for a medieval basin also kept in this church]
