Little Wilbraham / Wiborsham / Witborham

There are three entries for [Great and Little] Wilbraham [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/XX0000/great-and-little-wilbraham/] [accessed 20 July 2016], none of which mentions cleric or church in it. Paley's Guide (1844) reports: "The font is Perpendicular, octagonal, with quatrefoil panels." Reported in Kelly's Directory of this county for 1929. In Pevsner (1970): "Font. Octagonal, Perp[endicular], with pointed quatrefoil panels." The Victoria County History (Cambridge…, vol. 10, 2002) notes: "The stepped base of an early medieval cross survives in the churchyard. Much of the nave south wall and part of its west one probably remain from c. 1100: a small, round-headed window cut from one block and carved with scallop patterns was uncovered in the south wall in 1966 […] The octagonal font with traceried panels is 15th-century". The font consists of an octagonal basin with vertical sides decorated with flowers inscribed in cusped quatrefoils, each flower different from the others; the underbowl chamfer has a floral or foliage motif on each side, each different from the others; the octagonal pedestal base and lower base appear to be a mocern replacement. Elegant wooden octagonal cover with pelican-feeding-its-young finial; modern.
