Hampton Lucy / Bishop's Hampton / Hantone

There is an entry for Hampton [Lucy] [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://domesdaymap.co.uk/place/SP2557/hampton-lucy/] [accessed 21 November 2014]; it reports a priest but does not mention a church in it, whough there probably was one there. The Victoria County History (Warwick, vol. 3, 1945) notes: "There was a priest at Hampton in 1086, [...] and the advowson has descended with the manor down to the present day. [...] The medieval church, which stood 'not exactly on the same site' as the present building, [...] was completely demolished in 1826. A drawing made a few years before its destruction [...] shows that it consisted of a chancel, nave with clearstory and south porch, south chapel, and western tower. The chapel appears to have been of 13th-century date, and the visible details of the rest of the church belong to the 14th and 15th centuries. [...] The [present] parish church [...] dates from 1826 and is interesting as being one of the earliest and best examples of the work of the 19th-century 'Gothic revivalists'. It was designed by T[homas]. Rickman and consists of a chancel, nave with a clearstory, north and south aisles, north porch, and west tower. In 1858 the east end was remodelled by Sir Gilbert Scott, who provided the chancel with an apsidal end: he also refurnished the church." The present font is modern, of veined alabaster, decorated with Biblical scenes on the sides of the basin. [NB: we have no information on the font of the original church here].
