There is a stone object in the church yard now (July 2016) that may have been used as baptismal font in this church; it appears medieval, but it would have not been originally a font; rather, it looks like it was originally a capital that was hollowed at the top to fit a baptismal dish of the ones traditionally used in the northern churches after the Reformation; the sides are decorated with deeply-carved foliage motifs and ends in a roll moulding at the bottom; the base is a plain dylindrical column and the lower base is circular with graded roll mouldings.
