Baptismal font of soapstone, of which only the basin appears medieval; it is round, slightly wider at the bottom, the only decoration being a groove at both top and bottom of the sides; raised on a makeshipt base of two pieces, a cylindrical stem with a large groove in its middle, and a plain rough quadrangular lower base. No cover present but there is a brass (?) baptismal dish in use. The font is located at the east end of the nave, north side, by the chancel.
