Noted and illustrated in García Omedes [http://www.romanicoaragones.com/4-Cinco%20Villas/990503-UncastilloSanmartin2.htm]. Baptismal font consisting of a large roughly hemispherical basin plain but for a moulding at the upper rim, raised on a round moulded base. The wooden cover is flat, round and plain. The font rests on the earlier flooring, a few inches below the present one. [NB: the church itself is said to date from the mid-11th century, but we have no information on the earlier font]
