Click to view
Holy-water stoup wall-mounted on the interior south wall, west side of the entranceway; it consists of a crude almost cylindrical basin of reddish stone totally plain; mounted on a bracket of stone with a carving on it [is it foliage?]; the whole appears to be a composite object created from spolia, left-over stones.
