There are four entries for Southampton [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/SU4111/southampton/] [accessed 30 July 2019], one of which reports "3 churches. 1.0 church lands" in it. The entry for this parish in the Victoria County History (Hampshire, vol. 3, 1908) notes: "The church of this parish was originally in the patronage of the convent of St. Denys [...] is not mentioned in the Taxation of 1291 but a settled pension there of £1 6s. 8d. yielded its tenth of 2s. 3d. In 1428 its annual value was stated at 6 marks. [...] The fabric having become ruinous and the accommodation being insufficient, the church was rebuilt on an enlarged scale under certain authorities [...] in 1792, and consecrated on 12 November, 1795." The later church was demolished after being damaged in WWII.
