Baptismal font described in Hubbard (1986) as "ancient. Octagonal bowl of diminishing width in convex profile." The font consists of a plain basin as described in Hubbard [cf. supra] on a squat octagonal base that appears to be part of the same block; raised on a narrow three-step square plinth. The wooden cover is an octagonal low pyramid of concave sides with arrises; turned finial.
