Butleigh / Bodeslege / Boduchelei

There are two entries for Butleigh [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/ST5233/butleigh/] [accessed 8 May 2018]; one of the two parts was lorded in 1066 by Winegot (the priest)", and by Glastonbury abbey in 1086, but there is no mention of a church in either part. In his entry for Baltonsborough, Phelps (1836) notes that the font of the latter "is ancient, and resembles the one at Butleigh, but without the lamb and dove." Pevsner (1958) writes: "Octagonal, Perp[endicular], with, the lamb and cross, the lamb and flag, and two birds." The entry for this church in Historic England [Listing NGR: ST5200333922] reports: "Octagonal C15 font on a shafted base, the panels of the bowl with emblems of the Trinity." The entry for this parish in the Victoria County History (Somerset, vol. 9, 2006) notes: "Butleigh was first mentioned in 1168, although the fabric is earlier. [...] In 1189 it was one of seven churches placed in the jurisdiction of Glastonbury abbey. [...] The church of St. Leonard, so dedicated by 1546, [...] but in the later 18th century named after St. Benedict, [...] appears predominantly mid-19th century but has traces of an 11th- or early 12th-century nave and, at its base, a later 12th-century central tower [...] The Perpendicular font is octagonal with carved panels." The baptismal font consists of an octagonal basin with deeply-carved sides, four (?) of which appear decorated with quatrefoils inscrbing roses, shields, etc., the others with animals (lamb?) [NB: the so-called 'dove' appears to be an eagle, instead]; it has graded moulding on the underbowl chamfer; the base is octagonal with colonnettes at the angles. Stands on an octagonal plinth with lneeling extension; the plinth appears modern. The wooden cover is octagonal and flat, with metal ring handle; perhaps Victorian?
