Holy-water stoup, perhaps from the later period of the church; it consists of an egg-cup shaped basin with striated surface, raised on a truncated cone stem with a lower moulding, and a round-to-square moulded lower base . The entry for this church in the Enciclopedia del románico [https://www.romanicodigital.com/sites/default/files/pdfs/files/burgos_BUTRERA.pdf] [accessed 20 August 2025] does not mention a font of stoup in it. [cf. Index entry for Butrera No. 1, for the baptismal font of this church]
