Newton Tony / Newentone [Domesday] / Newton Toney

There is an entry for Newton [Toney] [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [https://opendomesday.org/place/SU2140/newton-toney/] [accessed 24 August 2019] but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. The font here is illustrated by John Buckler [NB: this could be the 'pen drawing' listed in W. Howard Bell, E. H. Goddard's Catalogue of the Collection of Drawings, Prints and Maps, in the Library of the Wiltshire Archaeological and Natural History Society at Devizes (1898) [cf. infra]]. The Victoria County History (Wiltshire, vol. 15, 1995) notes: "Newton Tony church was standing in the 12th century. [...] The old church, which may have been undedicated, [...] had a chancel and a nave with south porch and north chapel [...] The small size of the chancel and the nave suggests that they were built no later than the 12th century. [...] The church was wholly rebuilt in 1844 and dedicated to St. Andrew. [...] Registrations of baptisms and burials begin in 1586"; there is no mention of a font in the VCH entry for this parish. The English Heritage entry for this church [Listing NGR: SU2177240242] reports: "Font, at west end, probably C13, a bowl on a short column on step." The font is noted and illustrated in the CRSBI (2019): "The church was built in 1844 [...] The font dates from the 12thc. and originated from an earlier church. [...] The font is a simple, plain bowl decorated with a roll moulding beneath and it sits on a short shaft. Below the bowl is a small roll moulding (0.03 m) with fillets on either side. The whole font stands on three steps. The font was illustrated by Buckler who only shows two steps in his watercolour." [NB: the lower step appears modern and may be a later addition of the 19th-century re-building]. No cover present.
