Click to view
Baptismal font consisting of a roughly hemispherical basin decorated with a series of mouldings at the upper rim, and a ribbed pattern on the sides and underbowl; raised on a round pedestal which appears to be of later date; the basin itself shows damage at several spots, and has a reinforcing metal band all around; there is no font cover but the upper rim still has one of the metal staples in it. [NB: Iglesia de San Pedro contains a museum; the font appears to be on display at such a place].
