A stone baptism font with gilded quatrefoils in the south trancept of St Barnabas's cathedral church, Nottingham.
"A major reordering of the Cathedral took place in 1993, under Bishop McGuiness, to mark the 150th anniversary of the church (Architects Smith and Roper of Buxton). This involved a new high altar, lectern, sanctuary seating and cathedra, and the reinstatement of the rood figures of St Mary and St John. Level changes were ironed out and new doors fitted at the main entrance, along with a ramp in the northern ambulatory, to allow for improved circulation. A new font was installed at the east end of the south aisle and a new encaustic tile floor was laid throughout."
