Described and illustrated by Nuño González in Soria románica (2001: 75) as a Romanesque holy-water stoup that shares its ornamentation with the baptismal font of this church; dated also to the same period: late 12th or early 13th century. The cylindrical basin of the stoup has short vertical sides ornamented with a band of foliage all around; the underbowl is tall, plain and in the shape of an inverted cone; the short stem of the base, which is part of this monolithic object, is a plain cylindrical column ornamented with a roll moulding at the top. The whole is now mounted on a wall-mounted stone on the south wall of the church. This same author reports red and blue paint, believed to be original, still on the object (ibid.). [cf. Index entry for Nodalo No. 1 for the baptismal font in the same church]
