Described in Bilbao (1996) as a baptismal font of the Romanesque period. Described and illustrated in the Enciclopedia del románico en Castilla y León (2002- ) [https://www.romanicodigital.com/sites/default/files/pdfs/files/burgos_SANTA_CRUZ_DE_JUARROS.pdf] [accessed 5 April 2023]: the large sandstone bucket-shaped basin, originally from the nearby Ermita de San Pedro, has ribbed inner surface; the outer sides are ornamented with an arcade of round arches with circles and crosses in the spandrels; rope mouldings at upper rim and lower basin side; on a moulded squat base: "Dentro de la capilla adosada al lado norte del presbiterio se encuentra depositada una pila bautismal románica que fue trasladada hace unos años desde la cercana ermita de San Pedro. Al transportarla se rompió un pequeño trozo de la basa que ahora está pegado. La pieza está realizada en un solo bloque de piedra arenisca, de 129 cm de diámetro y 92 cm de altura, sobre una basa de 20 cm decorada con un cuarto de bocel. Presenta forma troncocónica, con el interior avenerado y el exterior decorado con trece arcos de medio punto en cuyas enjutas se tallaron sencillos motivos a base de círculos incisos y excisos, así como rudimentarias cruces. Enmarcando esta decoración, se disponen dos molduras sogueadas, una en la parte superior y otra en la inferior. Pertenece al mismo tipo que la de la parroquial de Cueva de Juarros." The entry for this village in Emiliano Nebreda Perdiguero [www.archiburgos.es/wp-content/uploads/amo-a-mi-pueblo.pdf] [accessed 5 April 2022] mentions the baptismal font twice, once as Romanesque ["pila románica de vaso con sogueados, arcos en relieve y base circular" and farther down the entry another as Renaissance ["La pila de la iglesia es renacentista con cenefa en relieve y acanalados y pie cuadrado con molduras"] [NB: an error?]
