Wilton nr. Salisbury No. 7 / Wiltunie

The Victoria County History (Wiltshire, vol. 6, 1962) notes: "The church of St. Nicholas in Atrio may have been situated in the Market Place. [...] At an early date the rectory was appropriated to the abbey and devoted to the nuns' pittances. In 1291 it was valued at £2. [...] No vicarage was ordained and the Abbess of Wilton appointed the chaplains without episcopal institution. [...] In 1366 the church was in a ruinous condition, [...] In 1445 licence to rebuild was granted by Bishop Aiscough, with an indulgence of 40 days to all who should contribute according to their means; in consequence of this the church was completely restored, and its value at the time of the Reformation was £5 6s. 8d. [...] Since it was regarded as part of the abbey property, it passed with that property at the time of the Dissolution, [...] and there is no evidence that it was used as a church after this time; the building must quickly have disappeared, for the first Pembroke Survey contains no reference to it." [NB: we have no information of the medieval font of this church].
