An 18th century circular moulded bowl font on a plain cylindrical stem with moulded foot on a square base. Almost all the wooden furniture and memorials were permanently removed from the building during the Victorian restoration of 1883. The 18c columnar font suffered a similar fate and was found filled with flowers in the rectory garden before being finally restored to its proper place in the church.
