Font Notes:
Described in Bilbao (1996: 199 fn211) as a later [than Romanesque] baptismal ornamented with two large crossed keys. Described and illustrated in García Omedes [www.arquivoltas.com/8-palencia/02-CubillodeOjeda.htm] [accessed 19 May 2020]: "Adosada al muro sur, embutida por delante del vano de medio punto cegado que permitía acceso al cementerio se halla la pila bautismal. Troncocónica de sencilla hechura, luce en apuntada mandorla las llaves cruzadas de San Pedro, probable advocación del templo. Una grieta la recorre y ha sido apañada con una grapa de hierro". The basin has a roll moulding at the upper rim and the mentioned keys in a mandorla on the side facing north; minimal round lower base and larger circular plinth; all of it is half-built into the cubicle that, as García Omedes indicates above, was the exit to the churchyard, now blocked. There is a modern wooden font cover on it; it appears to be inged at the back.
