There is an entry for Eastrop [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/SU6452/eastrop/] [accessed 8 August 2018] but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. The Victoria County History (Hampshire, vol. 4, 1911) refers to documentary evidence of the church here in the 14th century ["a dispute between the Prior of Selborne and the rector of the church concerning the tithes"], but the present church is a small modern edifice but "Beyond two 17th-century gravestones and a later one there is nothing of any age in the building". [NB: not clear whether the medieval church/chapel had baptismal rights and a font].
