Threxton / Trectuna / Trekestone / Trestunam

There are two entries for Threxton [variant spellings] in the Domesday survey [https://opendomesday.org/place/TF8800/threxton/] [accessed 18 February 2024], neither of which mention a priest or church in it. Armstrong (1781) writes: "T[hrexton] sometimes wrote Trekestone, and in Doomsday book Trestunam and Trectuna. The church was valued at nine marks, besides the portion, and paid 5s. procurations, 20d. synodals, and 9d. Peter-pence. [...] The church consists of one aile only, which is tiled; the chancel is thatched, and the fteeple is low and round. [...] Simon Senz Aveyr gave to the church of the Holy Trinity of Norwich a third part of his tithes of Threxton". Blomefield (1805-1810) cites Armstrong almost verbatim, as usual in many of his entries, and names "Ralf de Harpele" as first recorded rector, in 1205. A font in this church is described in Pevsner & Wilson (1999): "Octagonal, with blank window tracery motifs, pointing to a pre-Perp[endicular] date. One reticulated, one three-light intersecting design." Noted and illustrated in Knott (2004). The underbowl has graded moulding; the octagonal stem is plain and the lower base is moulded and octagonal; on an octagonal plinth. The wooden cover is octagonal and flat.
