Beeston St. Andrew / Besetuna / Beston

There are five entries for Beeston [St. Andrew] [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://domesdaymap.co.uk/place/TG2513/beeston-st-andrew/] [accessed 10 April 2014], one of which reports half a church in it. Blomefield (1805-1810) notes that the 'moiety' here was in 1086 in the part that Ralph de Beaufoe [aka Bellofago] held, "of which a freeman had been deprived", i.e., the holder before 1066; "The Church was dedicated to St. Andrew, and had two medieties, in the patronage of the Mounteneys, and both granted by Robert de Mounteney, son of Arnold de Monteney, by fine in the 54th of Henry III. to Geffrey, prior, and the convent of Peterston". Blomefield (ibid.), writing in the mid 1700s, does not mention anything about the decaying of this church, but it would be occurring soon thereafter as Bell (1836) reports the church as "desecrated", and Wilson's Gazetteer of 1870-72 declares it "in ruins". [NB: we have no information on the font of the old church].
