Baptismal font of stone consisting of a roughly cylindrical basin decorated with just a couple of faint grooves and a moulding on the much-eroded outer surface; on a circular base that may be a later replacement. No cover present but there is evidence at the upper rim of one drilled hole and some damage probably associated with an earlier cover.
