The Victoria County History (Wiltshire, vol. 10, 1975) notes: "Although a 'church way' is referred to in 987, the first mention found of a church at Manningford Abbots is in 1291. [...] The church was valued for taxation at £4 13s. 4d. in 1291 [...] Manningford Abbots church, for which no dedication is recorded, was largely rebuilt during the years 1861–4"; there is no mention of a font in the VCH entry for this parish. [NB: we have no information on te medieval font here]. The British Listed Buildings database [www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-311024-church-manningford] [accessed 24 January 2012] reports an octagonal font in this church; no further details given].
