There is an entry for Newbold [Pacey] [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://domesdaymap.co.uk/place/SP2957/newbold-pacey/] [accessed 12 January 2015], but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. The Victoria County History (Warwick, vol. 5, 1949) notes: "The church of Newbold was given to the Yorkshire Priory of St. Oswald of Nostell by Eytrop, son of the Domesday tenant Humphrey [i.e., Humphrey Hastang], and confirmed by his son Eytrop. [...] The church was entirely rebuilt in 1881–2 in the 13th-century style by Mr. J. L. Pearson, who, however, saved two late-12th-century doorways and reset them. The former south and more elaborate doorway is now on the north side [...] The south doorway is a much plainer feature but unusually treated. [...] The font and other furniture are modern." English Heritage [Listing NGR: SP2989157138] (1967) described the modern font here: "font has octagonal bowl on stop-chamfered square pier with 4 squat free-standing shafts".
