Noted in Glynne's 11 May 1868 visit to this church (in Butler, 2007): "The font is small and modern". The 19th-century font consists of an octagonal basin with tapering sides, with four sides decorated with foliage in an ogee window with another four totally blank; the octagonal stem has rectangular panels on the sides. The wooden cover is flat and round, with metal decorations and ring handle; probably Victorian as well. [NB: the original church goes back to Norman times, as the old chancel indicates, but we have no information on the earlier font(s) of this church]
