There is an entry for this [Long] Sutton [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/SU7347/long-sutton/] [accessed 31 July 2018]; it reports a church in it. The Victoria County History (Hampshire, vol. 4, 1911) notes: "A chapel probably existed at Long Sutton at an early date and was served from Crondall Church. The exact date at which a perpetual curate was appointed by the hospital of St. Cross, Winchester, is uncertain [...] The nave and chancel, in one range without any structural division, the chancel arch being entirely modern, are of early 13th-century date, and the south chapel was added towards the end of the same century [...] The font is circular with a plain bowl cut down and scraped, and a heavy circular stem. It is perhaps of 12th-century date." The entry for this church in Historic England [Listing NGR: SU7391647347] reports a font in it; no further details given. There is a roll moulding at the centre ring position, where the underbowl chamfer meets the stem.
