There are three entries for this Warmington [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://domesdaymap.co.uk/place/TL0791/warmington/] [accessed 14 January 2015], neither of which mention cleric or church in it. Described in the Victoria County History (Northampton, vol. 3, 1930): "The nave arcades belong to an earlier building and date from c. 1180–90, at which time aisles were probbably first added to a 12th century church. [...] With the exception of the nave arcades and certain minor alterations named below, the building is all of 13th century date [...] The font has an octagonal bowl with trefoiled panels, on a pedestal dated 1662, with the initials S.S., W.B.; it has a plain flat cover." Noted in Pevsner & Cherry (1973): "Stem of 1662 with small volutes." The font consists of an octagonal basin with a chamfered upper rim, the sides decorated with pairs of trefoiled windows; it appears modern [or, re-carved?]; it is raised on a thick octagonal pedestal that has quadruple colutes on four of the sides, right at the upper end of the stem; one of the sides bears the date 1662 and, below it, the initials 'SS, WB'.it stands on a modern octagonal plinth. The wooden cover is octagonal and flat, also modern.
