Font Notes:
The font here is a plain round tub font made of granite (?) resting directly on the ground; it lacks ornamentation and appears to be a crude work. Located directly in front of it is a step of multiple stones bomded together, on which is a square object that resembles a very crude mortar also made of granite; it may have been kept here as a possible holy-water stoup.
