Click to view
The present font appears late-Baroque, a round basin with moulded and castellated sides and underbowl, on a bulbous square pedestal base; red and grey marble. Cover to match with scene of the Baptism of Christ on a round moulded base with flowers, coloured stones, etc.; painted and gilded. [NB: we have no information on the font of the original church here]. The font in the nearby parish church is modern as well.
