Click to view
Lagerlöf (1985) reports the demolition of the old wooden church here and the inauguration of a replacement church in 1844, some of which stone is said to have been taken from the old church at Tissered. Hallbäck (1966) reports a baptismal font of sandstone of the 13th century; the font is described as being of two blocks which may be unrelated, making this font a composite object. A 1919 photograph by Anders Roland [cf. ImagesArea] shows a stone font consisting of two blocks of clearly different stone; the upper block has a plain bucket-shaped basin followed down by a deep scotia and a pronounced roll moulding and a short vertical stem; no drainage hole; the lower block is circular with a patterned [rope?] moulting atop, then a chamfer and then a plain cylindrical end. There is no cover present.
