Calverton nr. Milton Keynes / Calverton cum Stony Stratford / Calveston / Calvretone

There is an entry for this Calverton [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/SP7939/calverton/] [accessed 17 February 2016], but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. Sheahan (1862) writes: "The Church (All Saints) was rebuilt on nearly the same foundation, in 1818 [...] The large octagonal fonts is of carved Caen stone." The Victoria County History (Buckingham, vol. 4, 1927) notes: "ichard the clerk of Calverton witnessed a deed with Robert de Whitfield, Sheriff of Oxfordshire 1182–5, [...] thus affording probably an early incidental reference to Calverton Church. [...] It was valued at £14 13s. 4d. in 1291 [...] It was rebuilt in stone in the 12th and 14thcentury styles between 1818 and 1824, when some of the old details were re-used [...] All the fittings are modern. [...] The registers begin in 1559." The present font has an octagonal basin adorned with tracery; Victorian. [NB: we have no information on the font of the earlier church here].
