Font Notes:
Michel Claveyrolas writes: "Je n'ai pas trouvé de documentation sur les fonts baptismaux monolithes de cette église. Ils semblent toutefois très anciens et sans doute romans. La base est constitiée par un gros tore. De très gros boutons ornent la partie médiane. La margelle est constituée par un anneau très épais à arête vive." The object, whether a small font or a large stoup, located now at the west end of the nave consists of a round basin decorated with a broad flat moulding at the upper rim, a row of broad deeply-carved ribs belowm and a roll moulding at the lower end; it is now raised on a rough plain stone.
