Listed by Enlart (1902) among a group of 12th century footless tub-shaped fonts ornamented with a blind arcade. The present font in this church is not the one noted in Enlart, but a moden font consisting of a plain hemispherical basin on a round splaying pedestal and a quadrangular plinth.It has a wooden dome cover with a Latin-cross finial. [NB: we have no information on the whereabouts of the medieval font listed in Enlart].
