Harrison (1920) reports a stoup in the porch but mentions no font in his entry for this church. The Victoria County History (Sussex, vol. 4, 1953) notes: "The nave and aisles were originally of the late 12th century, the chancel and south chapel of the 13th, the north chapel seems to have been added in the 14th [...] the font is of the 19th." [NB: we have no information on the font from the 12th-century church here]
