Noted in Pevsner & Cherry (1973): "Late C13 with, on one side, a quatrefoil with leaf and flower motifs, on the second a pointed-trefoiled arch. The other two sides are not visible." In The Churches Conservation Trust [http://www.visitchurches.org.uk/content.php?nID=11&churchID=306] [accessed 30 March 2009]: "The robust font is 13th century." The baptismal font consists of a square basin with partly chamfered angles, a single large motif on each side [only two are visible, as the font stands in a corner], one a trefoil arch-head, the other a quatrefoil with floral inserts; there is a moulding at bottom side of the corners; it is raised on four moulded polygonal columns and a square lower base. The wooden cover is flat and round, with a knob handle/finial; appears modern.
