Stone holy-water stoup consisting of a square-to-round capital-shaped basin raised on a plain cylindrical pedestal base; two sides of the basin have a motif resembling a flower inscrived in nested triangles. The basin looks like a former early [11th? / 12th? century] capital recycled as a stoup in a later [unknown] period. [cf. BSI entry for Tagarrosa No. 1 for the baptismal font in this church]
