Fretherne / Fridorne

There is an entry for Fretherne [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [https://opendomesday.org/place/SO7309/fretherne/] [accessed 13 February 2019] but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. The entry for this parish in the Victoria County History (Gloucester, vol. 10, 1972) informs: "The church of Fretherne existed by 1281 […] was entirely rebuilt in the mid 19th century and retains of its ancient fabric only three 13th-century coffinlids, which appear to be earlier than the first known documentary reference to the church in 1281", but was rebuilt in 1846-1847, a time at which the old font from the 13th-century church must have been disposed of [we have no information on its whereabouts]. Noted in Verey & Brooks (1999-2002): "Font of Painswick stone, octagonal, Dec[orated]-Perp[endicular] style, with pierced and crocketed cover." The entry for this church in Historic England [Listing NGR: SO7337209157] notes: "Anglican church. Rebuilt 1847, on site of C13 church, by Francis Niblett enlarged 1857-9 by J.W. Hugall [...] Elaborately carved wooden pulpit hood and stone font hood." Baptismal font consisting of an octagonal basin with deeply-carved neo-Gothic panels, raised on a slender octagonal pedestal base. Tall pyramidal cover, very ornate. Both pieces Victorian, probably contemporary with the church itself.
