Baptismal font noted in Emiliano Nebreda Perdiguero [www.archiburgos.es/wp-content/uploads/amo-a-mi-pueblo.pdf] [accessed 7 December 2020]: "La pila es románica de piscina con molduras y decoración dentada." Monolithic bucked-shaped basin standing directly on the ground in a chapel on the south side of the nave; the only decoration on it is a double band of notched saw-tooth / zig-zag pattern with a groove betwen the two sides; the well-rendered carving contrasts with the starkness of the rest of the font. If there was a base or plinth originally it may still be in place somewhere at the west end of the nave. No cover present now but the upper rim bears two metal staples from an old cover. There is also a stone holy-water stoup by the west entranceway, possibly medieval.
