Baptismal font consisting of an original plain bucket-shaped basin, now mounted on a modern two-step circular plinth with kneeling stone; there is some damage to the upper rim of the basin, and some remains of the old cover hardware are still attached; the inner well of the basin is lead-lined. The candle-snuffer shaped pyramidal font cover is octagonal, with ball finial; it is probably modern, unless greatly restored.
