The Victoria County History (Northampton, vol. 4, 1937) notes: "The chancel, the nave arcades, and the lower part of the tower are c. 1320 [...] The church was rebuilt in its present form in the 14th century [...] The 18th-century font consists of a very handsome circular vase-shaped bowl of highly polished fossil stone on a square base." Noted in Mee (1945) as a font of the 18th century. In Pevsner & Cherry (1973): "Beautiful gadrooned bowl of stone on a square base; C18." The modern font is located on the north side of the third pillar of the arcade that separates the nave from the southern aisle. [NB: we have no information on the medieval font here].
