Baptismal font probably dating from the 1844 rebuilding of this chapel; it consists of a plain octagonal basin raised on a slightly splaying octagonal pedestal base and a minimal octagonal plinth with 'priest's stone'; the only decorationm on the font is a ring moulding on the upper side of the stem of the base; the wooden cover is flat with metal decoration. [NB: we have no information on the earlier font[s] of this chapel]. [We are grateful to Colin Hinson, of the GENUKI web site, for the photographs of this font]
