There are two entries for this Milford [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [https://opendomesday.org/place/SZ2991/milford/] [accessed 13 February 2020] neither of which mentions cleric or church in it. The Victoria County History (Hampshire, vol. 5, 1912) notes: "The earliest church from which the present structure developed was probably an early 12th-century aisleless church of chancel and nave, the extent of the latter being represented by that of the three western bays of the present nave. To this church, c. 1180, a south aisle was added, narrower than the present one [...] The octagonal stone font is modern and stands at the west end of the nave." The entry for this church in Historic England [Listing NGR: SZ2908091935] notes: "most of the church is in the Early English style with some late Norman work from a preceding church" but mentions no font in it. [NB: we have no information on the medieval font of this church].
