The Domesday Survey does not mention a church at Henlow, but records four land-holders:
Nigel de Aubigny, Walter of Flanders, Azelina (Wife of Ralph Tallboys) and the Burgesses
of Bedford. Herfast held land of Nigel de Aubigny, and Herfast's son Nigel along with
the de Aubigny family gave Henlow church to Llanthony Priory (Gloucestershire) (VCH,
281). This was confirmed in 1199 by King John. Llanthony Priory retained the advowson
until the Dissolution.
