Durston / Destone

There is an entry for Durston [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/ST2928/durston/] [accessed 10 April 2018], but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. Jeboult (1873) writes: "The font is old and lined with lead." Not mentioned in Pevsner (1958). The entry for this parish in the Victoria County History (Somerset, vol. 6, 1992) notes: "The position of Durston church beside the former manor house suggests a manorial origin. In or after 1170, and probably before 1176, William of Erleigh, lord of the manor, gave Durston chapel, possibly once dependent on North Petherton, as part of the endowment of Buckland priory. The Hospitallers, replacing the canons at the priory, became perpetual parsons in 1189 [...] The church of St. John the Baptist, dedicated in the 1540s to St. Nicholas, […] is a small building of stone comprising chancel, nave with south porch, and western tower, all but the tower rebuilt in 1852-3 to the designs of C. H. Knowles in the Decorated style;" the VCH entry does not mention a font here. Was the font replaced / discarded in the mid-19th century restoration of this church? Is the present font modern?
