Click to view
Baptismal font probably from the late-19thC church that replaced the 15th-century building; it consists of an octagonal basin with four human heads at 90-degree angles, a torus-scotia-torus decoration on the sides between them; mounted on an octagonal-to-square pedestal base with a large moulding at the centre ring position. In 1958 there was no cover present but there were two large iron staples from an old cover in the upper rim; in August 1965 the font was photographed showing alterations: the metal staples had been removed from the upper rim of the basin, a new metal cover had been added, and the font had been re-tooled (?) and whitewashed all over. [cf. BSI entry for Borgharen No. 1 for a fragment possibly from the medieval church at Borharen
