Described in Bilbao (1996: 286 et al.) as a baptismal font of the Romanesque period; the rectangular basin has a Latin cross on each side; the underbowl tapers slightly; the base is of a later date. No entry found for this locality in the Enciclopedia del románico [www.romanicodigital.com]. The entry for this village in Emiliano Nebreda Perdiguero [www.archiburgos.es/wp-content/uploads/amo-a-mi-pueblo.pdf] [accessed 5 April 2022] notes: "San Pedro Apóstol es el titular de su iglesia, de una nave, de planta posiblemente románica con cabecera renacentista añadida [...] La pila es cuadrada, pero ha sido redondeada en las esquinas, con moldura en borde, cruces incisas y pie cuadrado." The entry for this location in VerPueblos [www.verpueblos.com/castilla+y+leon/burgos/paul+de+valdelucio/] [accessed 25 January 2021] notes: "La pila es cuadrada, pero ha sido redondeada en las esquinas, con moldura en borde, cruces incisas y pie cuadrado [...] merecería un estudio especial." No font cover present now but there is evidence of metal staples from old anchorings in the upper rim. [NB: there may have been a drain hole in the basin but, if there was one, it is now covered]
