Harrison (1920) writes: "The circular old font on three E[arly] E[nglish] pillars was found when preparing site of the new church in which it is placed." Described in Whiteman (1994) as the font from the old chapel-at-ease to Trotton, probably dated to the 16th century: "the old font is now in the modern church" [NB: the old Milland Chapel still exists, known also as Tuxlith [aka Tuxlythe] Chapel, right next door to the Victorian church; it is now redundant].
