Font Notes:
There are two entries for Rise [variant spellings] in the Domesday survey [https://opendomesday.org/place/TA1441/rise/] [accessed 6 November 2019] neither of which mentions cleric or church in it. The enry for this parish in the Victoria County History (Yorks East Riding, vol. 7, 2002) notes: "A chapel at Rise was mentioned c. 1200, before the first known record of the church [...] Rise church existed by 1221 [...] The medieval church comprised a chancel and a nave with south porch and western bell turret. A blocked, round-headed doorway in the north side of the nave suggests that it was of 12thcentury origin although most of the features were said to be 14th-century. [...] The old church was demolished and a new one built in 1844–5 [...] Some 13th-century stonework was reused in the chancel arch"; there is no mention of a font in the VCH entry. The entry for this church in Historic England [Listing NGR: TA1497041942] notes: "Church. 1844-5, reusing some medieval fragments. [...] C19 arcaded cylindrical font on columnar plinth."
