Font Notes:
Noted and illustrated in TopicTopos: Patrimoine des communes de France [http://fr.topic-topos.com/eglise-saint-pierre-tredarzec] [accessed 1 March 2013], as a 16th-century baptismal font (double-basin) originally from the earlier church here. The font consists of a main octagonal basin raised on a base of the same shape, all of it decorated with mouldings; the attached secondary basin is much smaller, round in shape, as is the shaft which supports it, decorated with mouldings. There is a wooden cover on the main basin, octagonal and plain, of date unknown, perhaps 19th-century?
