There are three entries for this Addingham [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/SE0849/addingham/] [accessed 16 October 2018] none of which mentions cleric or church in it. The entry for this church in Historic England [Listing NGR: SE0852249696] notes: " Late C15 rebuild of Norman church, traces of which remain inside interior of tower (re-used stone with chevron decoration) [...] Semi-octagonal baptistry set under gallery retains C18 font of baluster shape." Ryder (1993) mentions also an 18th-century font here. [NB: we have no information on the font of the medieval church here].
