Buckland Monachorum No. 2 / Bocheland

There is an entry for Buckland [Monachorum] [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/SX4968/buckland-monachorum/] [accessed 2 June 2015], but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. A font here is described in Worthy (1887): "The present [font] is of Perpendicular date, and stands at the western end of the south aisle. It is octagonal and adorned with Perpendicular flowers, human faces, and armorial shields within quatrefoils. The stem is ornamented with square headed trefoil recesses." Listed in Cox & Harvey (1907) as a baptismal font of the Perpendicular period. Described and illustrated in Stabb (1908): "The octagonal font [...] is of granite, the sides of the bowl have shields, one having a grotesque face with the tongue out, and another the initial 'T'." Noted in Pevsner (1952): "Font. Perp[endicular], big, octagonal." The Buckland Monachorum web site [http://www.bucklandmonachorum.org.uk/Church.htm] [accessed 9 January 2009] mentions two fonts in this church; on the later font it notes: "There is a second font close by the church entrance, octagonal, and of a date corresponding with the age of the present building. It shows traces of colouring, and what appears to be a capital letter T on the side facing the Nave. A glance round the back will reveal two faces carved with their tongues out; possibly to discourage evil spirits." [cf. Index entry for Buckland Monachorum No. 1 for an earlier font (?)]
