Baptismal font consisting of a round tapering basin decorated with a moulding below the upper rim; raised on a short round-to-octagonal moulded base. Some damage to the upper rim may be related to the hardware of an old cover. [NB: it is possible tha the font now in the church of Santa Maria may have originated here].
