Described in Bilbao (1996) and García Guinea (1998): baptismal font of the Romanesque period; the sides of the basin are ornamented with a crudely rendered and badly eroded blind arcade. Noted in Martín Jiménez (2008) as being of an uncertain date. The entry for this church in the Enciclopedia del románico [https://www.romanicodigital.com/sites/default/files/pdfs/files/palencia_SANTOYO.pdf] [accessed 28 October 2021] describes the remains of the original church as late-12th century, but mentions no font in it.
