The present baptismal font at this church is of the standard Perpendicular design, but probably of 19th-century date, with blank shields in quatrefoils on the basin sides and tracery and mouldings on the underbowl, stem and lower base. Wooden cover also of the period. [NB: we have no information on the font from the original church]
