Baptism font in St Michael's church, Beer. Contemporary with the construction of the church in 1877 by Hayward of Exeter in an Early English/Decorated style. The building of the church was funded by Hon. Mark George Kerr Rolle (1835–1907) (

The font itself is almost undoubtedly made of local Beer stone (
