The Victoria County History (Northamptonshire, vol. 4, 1937): "The church is of exceptional interest as possessing a late Saxon tower which is generally agreed to be both the finest existing specimen of pre-Conquest work [...] and the most noteworthy architectural monument of its period in England [...] The font dates from 1877 and is in the 13th-century style." [NB: the church itself goes back to the 10th century Anglo-Saxon period, but we have no information on the earlier font(s) of this church]
