Baptismal font noted and illustrated in Richesses en Somme [www.richesses-en-somme.com/patrimoine-des-églises/fonts-baptismaux/fonts-baptismaux-avant-et-après-14-18/] [accessed 5 May 2022]: " CURLU - Eglise St Nicolas (moderne) - F.B.XIIIe s. Après la guerre 14/18, seule la belle cuve baptismale du XIIIe s. a résisté au bombardement. Cette cuve cylindrique en pierre jaunâtre, assez dure, creusée dans une table carrée, repose sur un fût central rond et trapu. Les quatre courtes colonnettes supportent des chapiteaux à crochets séparés par des feuillages. Le couvercle et son système de levage datent du 20e s.
