Long Description:
The church dates to 1352 when it was rebuilt, having replaced a Saxon building. It is thought that the plain font also dates to this period and that is was once painted. It is a simple design on a small, stepped base and was used to display various church leaflets and an interesting counter system when we visited.
Approximate Age of Artefact: 1352
