Click to view
A large crudely made stone holy-water stoup located inside, by the west entranceway to the church; its shape, with large quadrangular back, suggests it was designed to be wall mounted, the back block probably built into a wall; the basin itself is large and roughly hemispherical in shape, with a single moulding below the upper rim and a ribbed pattern below; it stands on a rectangular block now. A pair of facing notches in the upper rim suggest it may have been provided with a cover and therefore used as font at some point in its history.
