Excerpt from Notes on the Architectural History of Wycombe Parish Church Such contracts are not only extremely rare, but the light which this particular one throws upon a well known phase in the development of our parish churches is such as to render it worthy of more than a passing notice. Whether, as is probable, there was a church at Wycombe at the time of the Norman Conquest we have no positive evidence, the Domesday Survey being silent on the point.

That the church of Wycombe was among the gifts of his father, King Henry II., to Godstow Nunnery before his death in 1189.
