Noted and illustrated with measurements in Ligtenberg (1915). Noted in Ter Kuile (1974) and Steensma (2007). Listed in Drake (2002) as a baptismal font of the "Bentheim School, Group A2, modified cylinder", a group in which this author includes the fonts at Bersenbrück, Büttel, Emsbüren, Enschede, Epe, Ermelo, Gimpte, Herzlake, Holtland, Ochtrup, Ostönnen, Otterloo, Ueffeln. Baptismal font consisting of of a cylindrical basin decorated with a braid or double rope moulding at the upper rim, and a blind arcade of round arches on columns with capitals below; a thin roll moulding at the lower edge of the basin; on a round pedestal base of concave sides, ending down at the lower end with a double roll moulding; there is damage to part of the upper rim, likely where old metal staples cracked the stone. No font cover present; a baptismal dish fitted into the basin interior is probably used for baptisms, as in many other northern churches.
