P. 72, of a work entitled " A Description of England and Wales. " London : Newberry and Carman, St. Paul's Churchyard. Printed in 1709. M II. THE CHURCH OF BARNWELL ST. ANDREW. This parish was anciently called Bernewell le Moyne, from its former owner. The Church of Barnwell St. Andrew is situated on a gentle eminence immediately above the village. On this spot prayer and praise have probably never ceased to be offered to Almighty God for more than eight hundred years. It appears from the Dooms...day Survey (a. D. 1080) that there was here at that time a priest, and we may therefore fairly infer that there was also a Church. Thus the mind is carried back to remote antiquity, and yet the link connecting us with our forefathers is never broken. Christ's Word and Sacraments, although at times much obscured and mutilated in the Church of England, were never entirely lost, but have been handed down to us in their ancient purity. The first incumbent of Barnwell, whose name is recorded, was AVilliam de KIrkham, from 1248 to 1260, and many parts of the present church may have been built about that time.
