The granite baptismal font in this church consists of a hexagonal basin with tapering sides and a flat moulding at the upper rim, raised on a squat hexagonal-to-square base, the hexagonal top a thick roll moulding, the rest splaying into a square shape; it is raised on a modern lower base and plinth. The cover is modern, round, flat and plain, and appears made of plywood. It is not clear whether basin and base are of the same period, the base perhaps later. The basin is not a fine work, the sides somewhat irregular.
