Marianne Carron reported on 29 November 2012 [https://notrehistoire.ch/entries/j04YzRnJYqK] [accessed 13 January 2025] the presence of a stone baptismal font dated by an inscription 1691 in the churchyard, being used as a gardening vat: "joli bassin en pierre dont nous nous servons pour remplir nos arrosoirs au cimetière, est peut-être la plus ancienne « fontaine » de Fully puisqu'il s'agit d'un baptistère de 1691. Ces fonts baptismaux ont pu faire partie de l'église de l'époque et passer successivement dans les suivantes jusqu'en 1935 [...] cette vasque à godrons s'apparente à la fontaine semi-ovale devant l'église Notre-Dame des Champs à Martigny-Ville". The same source further notes that there are damages related to metal staples for a wooden font cover, now removed.
