Stone object used now as holy-water stoup inside the church; it consists of two columes, basin and base, but may ne monolithic; the upper volume is roughly bucket shaped and has a confusing inscription on it with a fleur de lis atop; the lower volume is of columnar shape, with many incisions on the sides between two broad mouldings. [NB: in a private communication to Mikel Unanue the medieval epigraphy expert Alejandro Garcia M. noted that the inscription appears to be late-medieval period, perhaps the 15th or 16th century; AGM to study the inscription further (e-mail of 15 Dec 2020)]
