Illustrated in The Gloucestershire Photo Library [http://www.allthecotswolds.com/] [accessed 30 December 2007]. Baptismal font consisting of a plain octagonal basin with a moulded underbowl, raised on clustered colonnettes with moulded caps and bases. Appears Victorian. The round and flat wooden cover, with metal decorations and ring handle is probably contemporary with the font. [NB: no record found of an earlier church here].
