Naptismal font consisting of a hemispheric basin decorated with a roll moulding at the upper rim, and a pattern of diagonal ribs around the sides of the basin and underbowl; raised on a moulded cylindrical stem and lower base that is also round but appears to have neads or other motifs at 90-degree angles on a square lower base; stands on a two-step (?) plinth. [NB: although the font matches earlier Romanesque pattern designs, it appears to be a later work.
