Nailsworth

No individual entry found for Nailsworth in the Domesday survey. The entry for this parish in the Victoria County History (Gloucester, vol. 11, 1976 ) notes: "Although no medieval reference to a chapel has been found, there seems little reason to doubt the 18th-century tradition that a chapel of ease to Avening anciently existed at Nailsworth or that it was the surviving building at Bannut Tree House.[...] The chapel probably went out of use before the Reformation and Nailsworth then had no place of worship in connection with the established church until 1794, when at the instigation of several prominent inhabitants, led by Jeremiah Day, an episcopal chapel was built by subscription." No font mentioned in the VCH entry. Verey & Brooks (1999-2002) report the fonts ot the two churches, St. George and All Saints, as modern. St. George's is "a good solid example of c. 1900", while St. George's is a "quatrefoil-shaped stone font" of ca. 1864-1865.
