Holy-water stoup located now by the entrance to the cloister listed in the Enciclopedia del románico [https://www.romanicodigital.com/sites/default/files/pdfs/files/LUGO_Ferreira_de_Pallares.pdf] [accessed 21 October 2025]: "El ajuar litúrgico del templo se completa con una pila de agua bendita que hoy se encuentra al lado de la puerta del claustro. Consta de un pie cilíndrico, que se ensancha en su tercio inferior, sobre el que se asienta la pila propiamente dicha. Esta es también de forma cilíndrica pero más ancha que el soporte. En la parte superior se excavó una cavidad semiesférica para contener el agua bendita que se enmarca con un sencillo listel plano."
