Described and illustrated in the Enciclopedia del románico [www.romanicodigital.com] [accessed 18 October 2023] as a baptismal font of the Romanesque period built into a wall at the west end of the nave, so only visible partially ["una pila bautismal románica de traza muy popular. Se encuentra encajada dentro de una hornacina o arco abierto en el muro de los pies de la nave de ahí que sólo sea visible poco más de la mitad de la pieza. Es de forma troncocónica (110 cm de diámetro × 66 cm del altura) y se decora con una serie de arcos rebajados separados por bandas
verticales con ajedrezados"]. Noted in García Gómez (2007). Romanesque bucket-shaped baptismal font, partly built into the wall and in a very poor state of repair; García Gómez (ibid.) mentions the odd-looking supports of the round arches that appear to be separated by chequered patterns. No cover present.
