Church Notes: church mid-12thC;
Baptismal font of stone consisting of a roughly hemispherical basin mounted on a round pedestal base; all very eroded and deteriorated, the basin itself held together (?) by metal wire braces. No font cover present but one metal staple in the upper rim of the basin would indicate the former presence of a lockable cover. Crude work and abominable state of conservation.
