Appleshaw / Appelleshaghe / Appelsawe / Appulsha / Appulshawe

No idividual entry found for Appleshaw in the Domesday survey. White (1878) mentions a baptismal font in this church that was brought over from Andover by the then incumbent vicar. The Victoria County History (Hampshire, vol. 4, 1911) notes: "Appleshaw was formerly a chapelry attached to Amport, but was in 1866 declared a vicarage in the gift of the Dean and Chapter of Chichester." No font mentioned in the VCH entry. The entry for this church in Historic England [Listing NGR: SP2947346468] notes: "There is a Victorian octagonal font, but in the porch what appears to be the original font, comprising a very slender circular stone pillar, on a square base, with a vase top, now accommodating a shallow metal dish." [NB: this "original font" probably meant to be original of the 1830 re-building]. A Victorian font here is noted and illustrated in the village site [http://www.appleshaw.org.uk/Pages/church/church_history.html] [accessed 28 August 2018]. [cf. Index entry for Andover for a possible font from that church moved to Appleshaw parish church in the late-19th century]
