Two medieval fonts, one dating to the 12th century the other a relative newcomer from the 15th century.
On the floor of the Sampson Chapel by the sedilia is what is claimed to be a recovered early font from the 12th century. Until 1927 it had been used as a cottage doorstep!
A more modern (15th century) font is situated by the door at the west end of the church.
