Described in Orrin (1988): "The font is of typical 14th-century design, octagonal and relatively plain. The octagonal bowl is decorated with a sunken quatrefoil alternating with plain sides. Plain mouldings on the underside meet the short shaft and there is a single moulding again before the octagonal base which itself rests on a hexagonal base." In Newman (1995) as a 15th century font, octagonal and ornamented with quatrefoils on alternate faces, recarved in the 19th, or entirely of the 19th century.
