There are two multiple-place entries for Wawne [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [https://opendomesday.org/place/TA0936/wawne/] [accessed 31 October 2019] neither of which mention a church in it. The entry for this parish in the Victoria County History (York East Riding, vol. 7, 2002) notes: "A church at Wawne was recorded from 1115. [...] Since 1244 the living has been a vicarage. [...] Most of the ivy-clad church [...] was restored by J. M. Teale of Doncaster in 1874–5. [...] The octagonal font in the south aisle is 14th- or 15th-century". Cox & Harvey (1907: 229) list a baptismal font of the Perpendicular period here. The entry for this church in Historic England [Listing NGR: TA0911636818] notes: "Church. C12 or earlier nave, early C13 north-west tower (raised in C15) and north and south nave aisles, C13 north porch (rebuilt in C19), late C13 chancel [...] At the west end of the south aisle is a C15 font with an octagonal tub bearing recessed quatrefoil panels on an octagonal pier and base." The upper rim of the basin shows two new-stone insert repairs at opposite ends, presumably where the old metal the anchorings had damaged the stone.
