Stone baptismal font of the 13th century, probably from the original wooden church [chapel?] here. The font is of the popular design introduced by Gotland exports: a round basin with vertical sides and a rounded underbowl, raised on a tapering circular stem with a roll moulding at the lower end, on a round splaying lower base; the moulding is the only ornamentation in an otherwise plain font. No cover present, nor are there any traces of cover hardware on it.
