Scene Description: Source caption: "There are two fonts in the church, one just inside the door and dating to the 13th century. However, the other, which was in the churchyard for many years is most probably late Norman. Is it possible that this is in fact from an earlier church in the village? This attractive font is now propped somewhat unceremoniously in the church porch." [NB: the original image has been rotated 90 degrees here]
