There is an entry for Codicote in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/TL2118/codicote/] [accessed 21 September 2016], but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. The Victoria County History (Hertfordshire, vol. 2, 1908) notes: "The advowson and rectory of the church of Codicote belonged to the priory of Sopwell till its dissolution in 1537, but the date at which they acquired it is not known. […] Ralph, bishop of Rochester, 1108–14, dedicated the church of Codicote, (fn. 46) but whether any part of the existing building belongs to this time is a matter of conjecture only […] The octagonal font is modern, and stands under the tower."
