Throapham / Laughton-en-le-Morthen/ Laughton-en-le-Morthing / Trapum / Trapun

There is an entry for Troapham [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/SK5286/throapham/] [accessed 27 November 2018] but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. The font in the Church of St. John the Baptist, Laughton-en-le-Morthing [spelling in Hunter] is described in Hunter (1828-1831): "The font is antient, but not of equal antiquity with the sculptured sepulchral stone. It is remarkable for its size , and specially its height […] The sides are decorated with crosses and quatrefoils, except one, which exhibits a shield of arms, Barry of six, on a chief a lion passant." Armitage (1905) reports a "large Dec[orated] font" in this church. Noted in Morris (1932): "Font closely resembling that at Laughton, and apparently late Dec[orated] or Perp[endicular]." In Pevsner (1986 c1967): "Font. Octagonal, Perp[endicular], the bowl castellated. The panels with various kinds of tracery. A brother to the font at neighbouring Laughton." The entry for this church in Historic England [Listing NGR: SK5232087572] notes: "Church now redundant and undergoing restoration. C12 origin, nave of several medieval builds, C15 tower, chancel and porch rebuilt 1709, C19 restoration. [...] Font: octagonal, Perpendicular with traceried panels and castellated top." [NB: Throapham St John's is located at one end of Laughton-en-le-Morthen, itself with another medieval font -- cf. Index entry for Laughton-en-le-Morthen]
