Click to view
A fragment of a moulded basin rests at the east end of the church, by the presbitery steps; it appears to be a much damaged fragment of a Gothic baptismal font basin, perhaps from the 15th-16th expansion of this church. [NB: we have no information on the font of the original 13th-14th church here]
