Font Notes:
Baptismal font made of coarse granite, consisting of a tub basin but octagonal around the upper end, with a large panel cut off for the location of a font lock that is no longer there (or was never used); the round lower sides are decorated with a series of linked circles, and the lower end has a roll moulding; the base is short, of two volumes, the upper one of which appears to form part of the basin block; the inner well of the basin has been altered, a modern partition having been cemented to the interior; there is a single metal staple from an old cover in the upper rim. The wooden cover is octagonal (?), flat and plain, hinged towards the back.
