The font consists of a roughly hemispherical basin with a single roll moulding and an inscribed date in the upper rim area, raised on a round pedestal base with a single moulding atop, circular lower base and plinth. Dome font cover of metal [copper?] with orb-and-cross finial; the cover has a latch that is locked to the side of the basin; appears modern. The font is built into an narrow alcove, the upper part of which is a niche painted with a Baptism of Christ in the Jordan scene.
