The stone baptismal font in this church consists of a roughly cylindrical basin on a round base; it appears totally plain and has a large area of damage on the east side; the damage has been repaired. The old font may be the original from the 13th-century(?) church here; it have been replaced by a later one for a time, but later still the old font was repaired and restored to the interior of the church, where it is now located, at the east end of the nave, on the south side.
