Compton Dundon / Contone / Dundon

There is an entry for Compton [Dundon] [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/ST4932/compton-dundon/] [accessed 7 May 2015], but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. Drawing of a font in the Harvey Pridham Drawings of English Fonts (MS 56). [Folder Number, Item Description]. University of Colorado at Boulder Libraries. Special Collections Dept., done by Harvey Pridham in July 1888 accompanied by the following description: "Octagonal. Circular bowl, lead lined, vertical sides: flat at bottom; lead turned over 1 3/4 (average): 12" deep, 2 1/4 margin: Position, N. side of Nave (no aisles) opposite S. doorway. The exterior of font has been painted all over and neatly (?) marbled and grained by some village artist. No cover." [NB: Pridham has 'Compton Dundo']. The entry for this church in English Heritage [Listing NGR: ST4794232532] (1959) notes: "in tower arch an octagonal font with plain bowl, shaft and base; by south door a stoup apparently linked to that outside in porch." The Victoria County History (Sommerset, vol. 9, 2006) notes: "The ancient yew tree beside the church has been professionally estimated to be 1,700 years old, therefore the churchyard may be a pre-Christian site. [...] The church was in existence by 1291, when the endowment had passed to Wells cathedral. [...] The church of St. Andrew, so dedicated by 1527"; the VCH (ibid.) reports a baptismal font dated to the 15th-century expansion of the church here, and a font cover of 1936 by W. D. Caröoe.
