Church Notes: 13thC church
Baptismal font probably of the late-Romanesque period, as the church itself; the large round basin has very broad and protruding ribs framed at the top by incised round arches; a roll moulding decorates the upper rim; the upper rim has two metal staples at opposite ends; the basin is raised on a plain circular stem, and a quadrangular plinth. The basin may have stood on a different base at some point, as the bottom of the ribs appears damaged. No cover present now.
