Click to view
Noted and illustrated in the SHM’s database Medeltidens bildvärld [ref.: 950807F1] as a baptismal font made of granit ca. 1200. Noted and illustrated in Ullén & Ljungstedt (2003) as a baptismal font of granite originally from the disappeared church at Löt,; the font was reported in the 1860s as being disused by the ruins of the church; the authors give the fonts at Konungsund in Turinge and the one at Bergshamra in Södermanland as cognates. [NB: the old granite font belonged to the nearby church at Löt [cf. supra]; that church and the old Borg church were both demolished in the early-19th century [1802 and 1803], but only one font appears to have survived from them]. The font consists of a roughly cylindrical basin with a broad rope moulding at the upper rin and a scotia beow; the base is also roughly cylindrical with a centre ring moulding; there is an open drain cut vertically down the exterior of the base. No cover present.
