Noted in Hallbäck (1971). Noted and illustrated in the SHM Medeltidens bildvärld [ref.: 920630F3] as a baptismal font made of sandstone ca. 1200 by a regional hand; the SHM entry gives the present [i.e., ca. 2003] location as "Falbygdens museum, Falköping (inv.nr. saknas)], and suggests it may lack a lower base or plinth originally present. The SHM entry gives no indication of procedence, nor does the museum web site; the church at Saleby already has the basin fragment of a medieval font and a modern font [cf. BSI entry for Saleby No. 1] [NB: we have no information on the procedence of this font].
