Font Notes:
Noted and illustrated in Emmanuel Garland's Les Églises romanes du Pays Tòy (avec une proposition de chronologie comparée), in Mémoires de la Société archéologique du Midi de la France, t. LXXVI (2016), p. 49-74 [https://societearcheologiquedumidi.fr/_samf/memoires/t_76/050-075_EG.pdf] [accessed 13 July 2023]: "À l’intérieur, on cherchera en vain toute trace d’ornement ou de sculpture. seule la cuve baptismale, exacte copie de celles de Sère, est à signaler. elle confirme le rôle paroissial de l’église." This same source mentions a somewhat similar holy-water stoup in Sassis, in the same area. The basin is round at the top with short columns set at 90-degree angles, the lower side of the basin being square; it is now cemented against a corner at the west end of the nave, and what is visible of the base appears to be a modern setting. No cover present.
