Weston-on-Avon / Weston-upon-Avon / Westone / Westune

Weston[-on-Avon] appears in the Domesday survey [variant spelling] [www.domesdaybook.co.uk/warwickshire3.html#westononavon] [accessed 15 January 2015]. The Vicvtoria County History (Warwick, vol. 5, 1949) notes: "The early history of the church of Weston-upon-Avon does not appear to be recorded; but by 1290 it was in the gift of the Bishop of Worcester, who in that year tried to make it a prebend of the Collegiate Church of Westbury. [...] The church dates from the late 15th century but the chancel is not of one build with the nave and may be a little later. [...] The church was restored in 1899. [...] The font is modern." The octagonal font, located at the southwest corner of the nave, is probably dated to the late-19th century re-building of the church.
