Listed in Palissy [ref.: PM62001874]: "fonts baptismaux [...] 13e siècle [...] A quatre colonnes [...] Détruits en 1880." Volume 3 of the Épigraphie du département de Pas-de-Calais (Arras: Commission départementale des monuments historiques du Pas-de-Calais (1886: 930) reported this as a 12th-century font already destroyed at the time. Listed by Enlart (1902) as a 12th-century square mounted font on a 5-column base. [NB: probably no contradiction on the number of 'colonnes', since Enlart counted in the central shaft as well].
