There is an entry for Tinwell [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/TF0006/tinwell/] [accessed 23 July 2015], but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. The Victoria County History (Rutland, vol. 2, 1935) notes: "The church of Tinwell is mentioned as belonging to the monastery of Peterborough in the spurious charter of Wulfhere (664), already referred to, which was confirmed by Henry III and Edward II. It is also mentioned in the Privileges of Pope Eugenius (1145– 53) [...] and from architectural evidence the church here referred to may have been the first on the site. [...] The nave arcade, south aisle, chancel arch and the west window of the former north aisle are of the first half of the 13th century and probably represent a rebuilding at that period of a 12th-century aisleless church no portion of which now remains except possibly at the west end of the nave. [...] The font dates from 1894 [...] The font is in memory of Emma Everett (d. 1893)." This 19th-century font is located at the west end of the nave".
