Listed in Martín González (1970: 112) as a monolithic baptismal font. The font is monolithic but of two clearly defined volumes seprated by a centre ring moulding; the base volume is circular and plain; the basin is roughly hemispheric with very broad ribs all around. The present church is a re-building of 1807 but the font must be fro,m either its predecessor, a church dedicated to St. Mary, or to one of the disappeared churches or chapels of the village.
