Baptismal font consisting of a square basin mounted on a five-column support base. Victorian, probably of the 1862 restoration of the church. There is no mention of a font in this church in Wade & Wade (1829). [NB: the fabric of the church goes back at least to the 15th century, but we have no information on the earlier font(s)]
