An entry for this church by Julian P. Guffogg in Geograph [www.geograph.org.uk/snippet/15006] [accessed 2 August 2021] notes: "The font probably dates from the time of the restoration of the church in the 1860s, but here is also an older disused font, probably Saxon." [NB: we have been unable to locate images or descriptions of the older font here]
