Noted in Van de Casteele (1877), after Van de Vyvere. The entry for this church by Augustin Dallongeville [https://saint-vincent.carrd.co/] [accessed 3 April 2024] notes that the ancient font now serves as holy-water stoup in the porch, while a ceramic basin is used for baptisms inside ["Les fonts baptismaux. L'ancien, dans le porche, sert de bénitier. Une cuve en faïence reçoit l'eau pour le sacrement du Baptème."]
