There are two entries for Bramshaw [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/SU2715/bramshaw/] [accessed 19 September 2018], neither of which mentions cleric or church in it. Cox & Harvey (1907) list a baptismal font of the Early English period here. The entry for this parish Victoria County History (Hampshire, vol. 4, 1911) notes: "The church of Bramshaw belonged at an early date to the Premonstratensian priory of Britford. [...] In 1158, however, Henry II granted the church, from which the monks had been expelled by Bishop Jocelin, to the cathedral of Salisbury, [...] The earliest part of the church is the west end of the nave, which is of mid-13th-century date, but from the west of the transepts eastwards the whole has been rebuilt [...] The circular bowl of the font is old but so scraped as to be undatable." The entry for this church in Historic England [Listing NGR: SP2697314926] notes: "Font old but recut." [NB: we have no information on the font of the earlier church here].
