A late Norman font in St Cubert's church, Cubert. 13th century, carved with traditional Norman dogtooth patterns.

It is located in the North transept, now the baptistry, and is probably the oldest piece of church furnishing, and was part of the second church which was built soon after the Normans came westward at the end of the 11th century. It was moved here in 1970.
