Font Notes: Click to view font notes

Baptismal font of stone [limestone?] consisting of a roughly hemispherical basin decorated with convex ribbed pattern on the outside and concave ribbed pattern on the inside of the basin well; plugs or trimmed metal staples at opposite ends on the upper rim, a likely remnant of anchoring hardware for an earlier font cover; short moulded round base. No font cover present. Unless the font belongs to an earlier or another church it is assumed it dates from the same dates as the church itself, the late-15th or early-16th century, but much in the tradition of earlier font designs in the area.
