view of stoup in context
Scene Description: an old stone holy-water stoup is seen here by the lavabo; the stoup may have been wall-mounted in the old church, as the arm extension suggests

Described in the Enciclopedia del románico en Castilla y León (2002- ) as a baptismal font in the Romanesque style consisting of a hemispherical basin decorated with thin ribbed pattern, raised on a base with an upper roll moulding with varied motifs at 90-degree angles on the lower volume. The font is certainly not Romanesque but rather from the date of the re-building of the church in the 17th century. [NB: we have no information on the original font of the medieval church here]. There is a possible medieval holy-water stoup inside the church, by the lavabo; it looks like it was meant to be -and probably was- wall-mounted, as suggested by the thick arm extension].
