There is an entry for Hooton [Pagnell] [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [http://opendomesday.org/place/SE4807/hooton-pagnell/] [accessed 12 November 2018] but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. The entry for this church in Visit Doncaster [http://www.visitdoncaster.com/things-to-do/all-saints-church-hooton-pagnell] [accessed 12 November 2018] notes: "In August 1897 the church was struck by lightning, one of the roof beams was set on fire, one of the pinnacles was thrown from the roof, and the font was broken and its bowl hurled across the church. The font was mended and continued in use for some time, but it is now in the churchyard near the south wall." This font may have been replaced by one from another [nearby?] church, as the entry for this church in the CRSBI (2018) notes: "Perhaps the lower part of a 12thc cylindrical font was reshaped with eight faces to fit onto an octagonal plinth or stem. [...] The font is located in the N aisle towards the E end. It was moved to Hooton Pagnell around 1900 from an unnamed neighbouring church, where it had been discarded, by Mrs Julia Warde-Aldam: Whiting (1938), 20." [ref.: C. E. Whiting, All Saints’ Church, Hooton Pagnell, Yorkshire, 2nd edition revised, H. R. Wilson, Dewsbury 1967.] "The plain drum font is set on a weathered sandstone chamfered plinth on a modern four-sided plinth. In its lower third, the cylinder has been worked into eight facets or panels which taper to meet the eroded plinth. The basin tapers down to a flat bottom."
