Noted in Glynne's 23 April 1842 visit to this church, (in Butler, 2007): "The font is square with the angles cut off upon a shaft standing on a square base, and apparently Early English in its character." Described in Bulmer's Directory... of East Yorkshire (1892): "There is a curious old font, square in shape, with a dwarf column at each angle". Listed in Cox & Harvey (1907) as a baptismal font of the Norman period. The entry for this church in Historic England [Listing NGR: SE8393370271] informs: "Church. Late C12-early C13 with early C13 arcade; late C14 tower; south aisle rebuilt 1823; re-roofed and restored, chancel largely rebuilt 1867-1868 [...] Late C13 square font with inset corner colonnettes."
