Described in Tynell (1913-1921: [51]): baptismal font of the Blentarp group [="Blentarpsgruppen"] found [ca. 1913] in the ruins of the church [NB: the church was restored in 1928-1929]; the basin is made of sandstone, the base of limestone. The font, as displayed in the restored church, consists of a rooughly cylindrical basin with a rounded underbowl, its sides decorated with a blind arcade of round arches supported on columns with capitals and bases, all very shallowly carved; ribbed pattern on the underbowl, which is either a re-carving or would probably date the font to the 13th century at the earliest; the upper volume of the base is moulded but very worn now; the lower base is of a different stone, as indicated in Tynell above. No cover present; batismal dish [pewter?] of modern appearance on it.
