Font Notes:
Click to view
Baptismal font of the Romanesque period noted in Santamaria (1988). The basin is round, roughly hemispherical, decorated with a band of saw-tooth motif below the upper rim (the rim itself is badly damaged all around, and shows indentations where the staples of the cover were removed); on the sides below are several large scrolls, paired as if they were representing plants or flowers; it appears to rest directly on the ground, although it is possible that there is a squat base now buried in the raised flooring. The font appears to be in disuse.
