Listed and illustrated in Palissy [ref.: IM10008332] as a former baptismal font of the 17th century being used as holy-water stoup in this church: "bénitier ; socle [...] calcaire [...] Octogonal, avec une échancrure dans sa bordure [...] 17e siècle [...] Anciens fonts baptismaux. Repéré par Mgr Marsat." The octagonal basin has a large chunk missing, perhaps broken off at the rim by hardware expansion; raised on a square pedestal base. The whole badly affected by moss.
