There is an entry for Hinton [Ampner] [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://domesdaymap.co.uk/place/] [accessed 16 August 2017]; it mentions a church in it. The Victoria County History (Hampshire, vol. 3, 1908) notes: "The church of All Saints has suffered from 'restoration' more severely than many of its neighbours [...] but is still of great interest as preserving its pre-Conquest plan and a few details of that date [...] the font, near the south door of the nave, is modern. The English Heritage entry for Hinton Ampner [Listing NGR: SU6172227506] (1955) notes: "In vestry base of old font."
