Described in Parker (1855): "The font is well moulded, and has raised geometrical tracery in the panels." Described and illustrated in Knott (2008): "The 14th century font is a stunning example of the tracery pattern series that appeared in the decades before the Black Death […] The cover is 17th century. "
