Following the abandonment of Landanwg in 1845 it became a parish church. [...] The octagonal font bowl is thought to be post medieval, and rests on a late medieval octagonal shaft. Another octagonal bowl lies loose adjacent to it. Three mortar stones or querns also lie loose beside the font [...] Two small recesses are situated either side of the font, one round-headed, the other square-headed. They are noted to have contained stoups in 1914."
