There are two entries for this Hessle [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://domesdaymap.co.uk/place/TA0326/hessle/] [accessed 28 July 2014], each part with one priest and one church in it. A font here is noted in Glynne's 31 July 1848 visit to this church: "The font is a very ordinary one: the bowl octagonal, diminishing, on a stem of like form." Sheahan & Whellan (1857) note: ''The font is an octagon basin of stone, on a similar pedestal'' [NB: the original fabric of the church goes back to Norman times, and the church was enlarged repeatedly in the 13th, 14th and 15th centuries as indicated in Pevsner & Neave (1995), and the present font probably dates from the 1841 renovation, but we have no information of the earlier font(s) of the two Domesday-time churches here].
