A communication from Pol Herman to BSI (e-mail of 27 March 2022) cites a source reporting a baptismal font from Le Favril later in the Castle of Maredsous: Soliamont (Christiane) et Poswick (R.-Ferdinand), Fonts baptismaux égarés : l’exemple des fonts de Le Favril au château de Maredsous, dans Société archéologique et historique de l’arrondissement d’Avesnes (Nord).

XXXIX, 2013, p. 33-39 [https://chn.hypotheses.org/files/2016/04/2014-04.pdf] [accessed 28 March 2022] [NB: we have no other information on the font, nor do we know whether the moved font was the medieval one from Le Favril Saint-Nicolas]
