Noted in Pevsner (1976): "Font. Perp[endicular], octagonal, with quatrefoil panels." Bettley & Pevsner (2007) add: "From old Ingrave church". The font is noted and illustrated as early-16th century, and probably from the demolished earlier church in Joan Cowell's Brief History of Ingrave [http://stnicholasingrave.moonfruit.com/#/our-history/4530178497] [accessed13 July 2010] notes: "In 1734, to quote from Morant: 'The Churches of West Homdon and Ging Ralph being grown ruinous, an Act of Parliament was obtained for uniting the two Parishes; and the churches being taken down, a new church of brick was built at the charge of the Rt Hon. the late Lord Petre and stands nearly at an equal distance from the two ancient churches'". This same source adds: "The stone font is perpendicular octagonal with quatrefoil panels, early 16th century Tudor and was probably brought from the old St. Nicholas, Ingrave."
