Noted in García Gómez (2007) as a baptismal font of the Romanesque period, the base decorated with round arch-heads. The font consists of a roughly hemispherical basin with a shallow and flat arcade of blind round arches with simple capitals and no bases; plain underbowl; pedestal base with roll moulding; round-to-square lower base with roll moulding decorated with semi-circular gaps; lanceolated leaves at the four angles. No cover present but two metal staples from an earlier cover anchorings still present in the upper rim.
