Noted in Valle Barreda (2009), without details. Stone baptismal font consisting of a hemispherical basin raised on a round pedestal base of two volumes. The basin must have been cracked for it now wears a metal reinforcement ring about half way down the sides. No cover present. The font is crammed into an alcove or chapel off the south side of the nave.
