Home (1915) notes: "Near the porch, in the usual position, is a holy-water stoup that has the front part of the basin broken off. This may have happened at the same time as the smashing of the font in Puritan days". [cf. Index entry for Pickering No. 1 for the restored baptismal font in this church]
