No entry found for Lydd in the Domesday survey. A font here is noted in Newman (1980): "Font. Mid-C18. Gadrooned on bowl and stem." Noted and illustrated in the Roughwood British Churches Album [http://www.roughwood.net/ChurchAlbum/Kent/Lydd/LyddAllSaints2005.htm] [accessed 13 February 2010]. [NB: the fabric of the church may go back to Saxon times, and its tower is 15th-century, but we have no information on the earlier font(s) of this church]
