Figheldean / Fisgledene

Lewis' Dictionary of 1831 mentions a stoup in this church, but no font. Buck (1951) describes a "Wide octagonal bowl, plain, with chamfered top and bottom edges; mounted on centre stem and four detached outer pillars; restored in 1860 and a new octagonal base fitted." There is no mention of either font or stoup in Pevsner & Cherry (1975). The Victoria County History (Wiltshire, vol. 15, 1995) notes: "In 1115 Henry I granted Figheldean church to Salisbury cathedral and Bishop Roger. [...] The church which stood in the early 12th century had a chancel and a nave, and the west tower was built later in that century. [...] the church was restored by J. W. Hugall in 1859–60 [...] Registrations of baptisms, marriages, and burials begin in 1653"; there is no font mentioned in the VCH entry for this church either. [NB: both Pevsner and the VCH may have assumed this was a modern font, not a restored one].
