There are two entries [one is multiple-place] for this Normanby [variant spelling] in the Domesday survey [https://opendomesday.org/place/SE7381/normanby/] [accessed 3 December 2019] neither of which mentions cleric or church in it. The entry for this parish in the Victoria County History (York North Riding, vol. 1, 1914) notes: "The whole church, which is built of coursed rubble with tiled roofs, has been much restored, and is said to have been rebuilt in 1718, but the plan of the nave probably dates from the 12th century, and the chancel may be in part of the same date, but was widened to the north late in the 14th century. [...] At the west end of the nave is an old stone basin on a modern stem, now used as a font. Near the south door is a turned wooden baluster, now used as a poor-box. The head of this is hollow and lined with lead, and it was used until recently as a font." The entry for this church in Historic England [Listing NGR: SE7348181656] notes: "Church. Mid C12 arcade; chancel arch c1300, partly rebuilt 1894; rebuilt 1718; restoration, and chancel rebuilt, 1893-95 [...] C17 octagonal font on C19 pedestal. "
