Meyrick (1808) mentions no font in this church. The entry for this church in Evans (1914) reports: "For many years prior to 1888 there was no Font in this church; in that year a new one of Nath stone with marble shaft was obtained, which now contains an earthenware bason". The entry for this church in COFLEIN [https://coflein.gov.uk/en/site/419559/details/st-davids-church-llanddewi-aberarth] [accessed 11 January 2020] notes: "The church was a parish church during the medieval period [...] listed, as 'Aberaith', in the `Taxatio' of 1291. [...] The tower is thought to possibly be late fourteenth century in date. In 1896 it was noted that the church's pre-1860s walls had been over 1m deep. [...] The church was rebuilt in 1860-1862, to the designs of David Williams, Llanon. All walls except those of the tower are thought to have been demolished and rebuilt at this time. The church was again restored in 1883 [...] The oolite font dates from 1888. [...] Six Early Christian Monument fragments are said to have been recovered from the fabric of church during nineteenth century restoration, but three have been lost."
