Cognate Fonts: [cf. FontNotes]
Church Notes: listed in Mérimée [ref.: "bastide créée en 1324. La construction de l'église remonte au 14e siècle. Forte reprise ou reconstruction partielle en 1780".-- The original oratory may date to the 14thC, but the church itself is probably later, in the 15th abd 16th centuries
Font Notes:
Wall-mounted holy-water stoup; the rectangular basin is decorated with a flat moulding around the upper rim; on the sides are Maltese crosses and six-petalled flowers, both encircled, as well a date brokwn into two groups and partially buried in the wall [17 33] [NB: the stoup appears of a much earlier date -- was this date added at a later date?]. Noted and illustrated in the parish site [whttp://www.saint-vincent-baises.com/cardesse.php] [accessed 1 December 2013]: "Le Bénitier. C’est un ouvrage du XIVe siècle que l’on trouve à gauche en rentrant dans l’église. Il est de forme rectangulaire, sculpté dans un calcaire cristallin, très poli et usé. Sur sa face principale l’on peut voir Trois cercles alignés avec deux fleurs à six pétales de part et d’autre d’une croix de Malte. D’après un ouvrage de Raoul Deloffre et Jean Bonnefous le bénitier daterait du XIVe siècle ce qui laisse à penser que c’est celui de l’oratoire d’origine." This stoup is somewhat similar to the one at the nearby church of Sainte-Agathe in Lahourcade, although the former is mounted on a pedestal base and the decoration is simpler; the 1733 date on this stoup is disconcerting.
