There are two fonts in this church; the one in use, consists of a shallow moulded and gadrooned oval basin raised on a round baluster-type moulded pedestal base; it has a moulded cover with a large ball finial. The second 'font', perhaps a haly-water stoup or being used as one, consists of an oblong rather shallow basin with a simple moulding decoration at the upper rim; it is raised on a plain round column and a round-to-square lower base; it shows considerable damage to the basin side; no cover present. [NB: since the church dates from 1715 the two objects would probably not date any earlier, unless one or the other were brought into the church from elsewhere]
