The present baptismal font in this church, located in the chancel, consists of an octagonal basin with a rounded underbowl, raised on an octagonal pedestal base and lower base of the same shape; the sides of the basin have a band of foliage, with large trefoiled panels with floral motifs inscribed in them; centre ring moulding; trefoiled niches on the stem sides; moulded lower base. Flat carved octagonal cover; wooden? The font appears modern, of a late-Gothic design.
