The font in this parish church, former monastery, appears to be a composite object: the octagonal basin, with circular and fluted motifs all around, appears to have been matched with a modern circular stem and a square lower base with chamfered corners. The wooden cover is octagonal, a low dome with moulded top and a metal orb-and-cross finial. [To be completed]
