There are two images of this font in the Bibliothèque municipale d'Abbeville web site [www1.arkhenum.fr/bm_abbeville_macqueron/_app/visualisation.php?id=7319] [accessed 7 May 2016]; one is a watercolur by Oswald Macqueron dated 2 April 1872, the other an engraving from Alcius Ledieu (1887). Ledieu (ibid.) describes the church here as 16th-century, and the font as 11th-century, which, Ledieu adds, looked disgraceful being covered in yellow paint. Noted by Janvier in Brutalis (1893-1899) as a baptismal font is described as being similar to those at Senarpont and Inval. Illustrated in Mémoire [image ref.:DSF 2881 P].
