The Enciclopedia del romanico... has a digital entry for the font in this church [http://www.romanicodigital.com/cedar/pila-bautismal-20208.aspx] [accessed 21 September 2020] showing it in the interior of the former church, now private property. Illustrated by A. López in Viaje Universal [www.viajeuniversal.com/spain/spain/blogs/blogsegoviaromanico.htm] [accessed 21 September 2020]. The font, consisting of a roughly hemispherical basin decorated with concave ribs and a round pedestal base, appears to be late-Gothic at the earliest; it is used as part of a fountain arangement in the nave of the former chuch.
