Font Notes:
Illustrated in Robin Peel's site [www.robschurches.moonfruit.com/#/morborne/4531428417] [accessed 24 April 2009]: plain octagonal basin with tall underbowl chamfer, raised on a dubious pedestal which probably did not belong to this font, although the moulded lower base appears to be right. The font is located outside the church, in the churchyard, by the north side of the building.
