Baptismal font consisting of a roughly hemispherical basin with a ribbed pattern on part of its sides, raised on a plain short circular base. Very crude work on a rough calcareous stone; it also appears very weathered, perhaps exposed to the elements for a long time. It may be the font of the 13th-century church here.
