There is a multiple-place entry for Thornton [le Street] [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [https://opendomesday.org/place/SE4186/thornton-le-street/] [accessed 29 November 2019] but it mentions neither cleric nor church in it. The entry for this parish in the Victoria County Histpory (York North Riding, vol. 1, 1914) notes: "In 1247 Geoffrey de Upsall granted the advowson of the church of Thornton-le-Street to the hospital of St. James near Northallerton [...] The thickness of the north wall of the nave and the zigzag ornament on the label over the south doorway seem to indicate 12th-century work, but this is the only evidence of this date, and not perhaps reliable. The chancel and all the details of the nave are of late 14th-century date except the nave north window, which is early work of the same period. [...] The font, which is placed near the south doorway, is possibly of late 16th-century date It has a circular bowl with a fillet round the top, and stands on a circular shaft with moulded capital and base." The entry for this church in Historic England [Listing NGR: SE4141886232] notes; "Church. C12, C14 and extensively restored in C19"; no font mentioned in it.
