There is a multiple entry in the Domesday survey that includes Ugglebarnby [https://opendomesday.org/place/NZ8707/ugglebarnby/] [accessed 20 February 2023]; it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. Bulmer's Directory of 1890 notes a font made of Caen stone in the new 1872 church buiilding, "with carved oak cover, supported from a metal bracket." Pevsner (1985) mentions the font as an ellaborate affair and notes that the "Font Cover is a High Victorian version of a C13 statue canopy, tower-like, eight angels sticking out in eight directions." [NB: we have no information on the earlier font(s) in the original Normal chapel on which site this church was re-built in 1872]
