ManorThe Domesday book of 1086 records Emmington: "William Peverel holds 10 hides in Emmington.[1] Land for 5 ploughs. Now in demesne are 2 ploughs and six slaves and 10 villans and 4 bordars with 5 ploughs. There are 12 acres[2] of meadow. It was worth £6 now £7. Alwine held these two estates freely." Parish churchEmmington has had a parish priest since at least 1190.{{sfn|Lobel|1964|pp=91–98}} Demolition work in 1873 discovered what was believed to be Norman masonry, suggesting that the original parish church was on the same site as the present Church of England parish church of Saint Nicholas. The building was largely rebuilt in the 14th century, and the belltower and several Decorated Gothic features survive from this time.{{sfn|Sherwood|Pevsner|1974|p=592}} In 1874 the chancel and nave were partly rebuilt under the direction of the Gothic Revival architects Charles Buckeridge and J.L. Pearson.{{sfn|Sherwood|Pevsner|1974|p=592}} The tower has three bells. The oldest is the second bell, which John Appowell of Buckingham[3] cast in about 1550.[4] Joseph Carter of Reading, Berkshire[3] cast the tenor in 1584.[4] Henry II Knight, also of Reading,[3] cast the treble bell in 1664.[4] St Nicholas' has also a Sanctus bell that Thomas Chandler of Drayton Parslow[3] cast in 1723.[4] The Chandler family cast bells from 1635 until 1726 but this is the only surviving bell recorded as being cast by Thomas Chandler.[3] St Nicholas' is a Grade II* listed building.[5] Emmington is in the parish of St Andrew, Chinnor, which is part of the Benefice of Chinnor, Sydenham, Aston Rowant and Crowell.[6] St Nicholas' church was closed in 1987 and reopened for worship in 1991.[7] In 2003 it was declared redundant and closed again, and it is now privately owned.[7] AmenitiesEmmington has no public house. However, just over the boundary in the parish of Sydenham is The Inn at Emmington, which is closer to Emmington than to the village of Sydenham.[8] 2016 earthquakeIn March 2016 an earthquake centred on Emmington was felt for miles around.[9] References1. ^William Peverel held a number of manors that William the Conqueror had granted to him, including Emmington and Crowell in Oxfordshire. 2. ^{{convert|12|acre|0}} 3. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web |url=http://dove.cccbr.org.uk/founders.php |title=Bell Founders |author=Dovemaster |date=31 October 2012 |work=Dove's Guide for Church Bell Ringers |publisher=Central Council of Church Bell Ringers |accessdate=24 June 2013}} 4. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url= http://dove.cccbr.org.uk/detail.php?searchString=Emmington&Submit=+Go+&DoveID=EMMINGTON |title=Emmington S Nicholas |last=Davies |first=Peter |date=20 September 2009 |work=Dove's Guide for Church Bell Ringers |publisher=Central Council of Church Bell Ringers |accessdate=24 June 2013}} 5. ^{{NHLE |num= 1368901 |desc=Church of St Nicholas |date=18 July 1963 |accessdate=24 June 2013}} 6. ^{{cite web |url= http://www.achurchnearyou.com/benefice.php?B=27/117CM |title=Benefice of Chinnor, Sydenham, Aston Rowant & Crowell |work=A Church Near You |author=Archbishops' Council |publisher=Church of England |accessdate=24 June 2013}} 7. ^1 {{cite web |url= http://www.stnicholascenter.org/galleries/gazetteer/1426/ |title=St Nicholas Church |work=Church Gazetteer |publisher=St. Nicholas Center |accessdate=24 June 2013}} 8. ^The Inn at Emmington 9. ^{{cite web|title=BBC|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-35743721|publisher=BBC|accessdate=7 March 2016}} Sources
