"The font is considered to be a thirteenth century piece, although as Pevsner pointed out, it is now decorated to the south by a seventeenth-century-looking cartouche. The bowl is octagonal but its shape is obscured by octagonal shafts, rising from circular shafts below, attached to the diagonal faces. The material is Barnack stone."
