South Cave / Caue / Cave

There is an entry for [South] Cave in the Domesday survey [http://domesdaymap.co.uk/place/SE9231/south-cave/] [accessed 31 July 2014]; it reports a priest and a church in it. A font here is noted in Hall (1892): "The old square font now in the north chapel may have occupied a position in the church in Saxon times, and is of the same shape and form as the very ancient one at St. Ethelreda's, Ely Place, London." The Bulmer's Directory of East Yorkshire for 1892 mentions "a square font, believed to be of Saxon date" in the church of All Saints at South Cave. Cox & Harvey (1907), however, list the only font at this church as belonging to the Decorated period [i.e., 1250 to 1350]. The only font noted in Glynne's 24 January 1863 visit to this church, in Butler (2007) appears to be compatible with the one mentioned in Cox & Harvey [cf. supra]: "The font has an octagonal bowl, with some figures of angels bearing shields." [NB: it is quite likely that the old font was already removed from the church by the time of Glynne's visit in early 1863, despite the mentions found in Hall and Bulmer above; these sources may have simply repeated earlier information without an update]. English Heritage [Listing NGR: SE9161431008] (1968) notes: "II* Church. Mid C13 chancel arch and transept arch, C15 west tower, heightened in C17, chancel 1847 by J L Pearson, south transept rebuilt 1848, north aisle 1859. [...] C15 font with angel busts at each corner and blank panels between."
