Hardwick with Weedon nr. Aylesbury / Hardewiche / Harduich / Hardvic / Hardwycke / Herdwik / Herdyngwyk

There are three entries for this Hardwick [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/SP8019/hardwick/] [accessed 18 November 2015], none of which mentions cleric or church in it [cf. infra]. Parker (1850) reports: "Font a circular bowl on shafts of like form" in this church. Sheahan (1862) reports a cup-shaped font in this church. The Victoria County History (Buckingham, vol. 3, 1925) informs: "Hardwick Church was given to Bermondsey Priory in 1092 by Wynebald de Baalun and Roger his son. [...] The small window over the north doorway suggests that the walls of the nave may be of pre-conquest date. The south aisle was probably added about 1350 [...] The tower was apparently built earlier in the 14th century, but the upper part seems to have been rebuilt and the west window inserted during the next century. The chancel was also rebuilt early in the 15th century [...] The church was thoroughly restored in 1872 [...] In the south aisle there is an old stone bowl, said to be that of a former font." [NB: the absence of mention of a church in Domesday need not be taken as fact; priests and churches were only mentioned in the survey if they were relevant to the survey goals].
