Chalgrove / Celgrave / Chalgrave [orig. from Wallingford Castle?]

There is an entry for Chalgrove [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [https://opendomesday.org/place/SU6396/chalgrove/] [accessed 27 June 2019] but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. A font here is illustrated in Skelton (1823). Described in Tymms (1834): "octagonal bason on a twisted shaft". The Ecclesiastical and Architectural Topography of England: Oxfordshire (1850) notes: "The font is a good specimen of Jacobean imitation of N[orman]". Ditto in Murray (1882). Kelly's Oxford Directory of 1911 notes that "the font and pulpit are Jacobean". Described in Sherwood & Pevsner (1974): "Font. Cup-shaped, octagonal, carved with the rose, thistle, and fleur de lys. Probably c. 1660." [NB: a late-date font originally from Wallingford Castle is kept in this church [source: Nash Ford Publishing, 2005 [www.nashfordpublishing.co.uk]] -- the Viewfinder web site of English Heritage, National Monuments Record [www.viewfinder.english-heritage.org.uk] has a photograph of the church interior showing the Wallingford Castle font in the west end of the nave, just south of the centre aisle]. [NB: a copper engraving by Frederick Mackenzie, "Font in Chalgrove Church", from Joseph Skelton's 1823 book on Oxfordshire, was advertised for sale at 10 GBP by Sanders of High Street, Oxford, ca. 30 June 2007 [http://www.sandersofoxford.com/list?subj2=Oxfordshire&type=Print] [accessed 17 June 2007]. The entry for this parish in the Victoria County History (Oxford, vol. 18, 2016) notes: "A well-endowed church existed by the late 11th century [...] apparently one of several given by the Norman baron Miles Crispin for the endowment of prebends in the collegiate chapel of St Nicholas in Wallingford castle, probably in the late 11th century. It was still nominally held as a prebend (in the earl of Cornwall's gift) in the 1250s, [...] although in practice it was treated more like an independent parish church [...] Chalgrove's spacious church dates chiefly from the 12th to 15th centuries, and was sympathetically restored in 1881–4 [...] Later furnishings include the cup-shaped octagonal font with a twisted stem, previously dated to c.1660, but recently claimed to include 16th-century heraldry and to have perhaps been recut from an earlier bowl"; the latter comment is footnoted in the VCH entry to "Keevill and Underwood, 'Conservation Plan', 33, citing emblems associated with Charles Brandon (d. 1545), duke of Suffolk, and his wife Mary Tudor (d. 1533). Brandon held property at Ewelme and Swyncombe, but not at Chalgrove."
