There is an entry for Budbrooke [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://domesdaymap.co.uk/place/SP2565/budbrooke/] [accessed 20 November 2014], but it mentons neither cleric nor church in it. Notices of the Churches of Warwickshire (vol. 1, 1847) notes: "A small octagonal-shaped font till lately was painted in imitation of veined marble! the paint has since been judiciously removed by the present Vicar." The Victoria County History (Warwick, vol. 3, 1945) notes: "Roger, Earl of Warwick, gave the church to the canons of the Collegiate Church of St. Mary, Warwick, at the time of their foundation in 1122–3 [...] Evidence of the 12th century is provided by the north doorway of the nave, and probably some of the masonry of the same wall is coeval with it. [...] The font and other furniture are modern."
