No entry found for Hartley Wintney in the Domesday survey. The Victoria County History (Hampshire, vol. 3, 1911) notes: "The church was apparently included in the original endowment of the priory of Hartley Wintney [i.e., 12thC]. It was appropriated to the priory, and the prioress and nuns presented the vicars till the Dissolution [...] The old parish church is now used as a mortuary chapel. [...] The present parish church [...] was built in 1870 [...] All the internal fittings are modern [...] A broken modern font of 13th-century style stands under the chancel arch." The Churches Conservation Trust web site [www.visitchurches.org.uk] illustrates a font -perhaps the modern one of 13th-century style- still in this edifice: it consists of a cylindrical basin raised on a foliated capital, a plain stem and a round moulded base. The entry for this church in English Heritage [Listing NGR: SU7737357099] notes the original church was built in the 13th century [NB: we have no information on the original medieval font of this church].
