The Parish web site [www.st-bartholomews-egdean.org/history.htm] [accessed 15 January 2013] notes: "There was a medieval church which is said to have had a wooden turret at Egdean, but it had fallen down by the time of the Reformation [...] The stone octagonal font is thought to date from the early C17." [NB: we have no information on the font from the medieval church here].
