Baptism font in the church of St Thomas the Apostle, Harty, Isle of Sheppey, Kent.
The font is described as 'modern' [ref. Archaeologia Cantiana - Vol. 37 1925).
The church dates back to the 11th century, although the nave and aisle are mainly 12th century. The church was renovated in the late 14th or early 15th century. It was restored in 1878-80 by Joseph Clarke, and later in the 20th century. The font possibly dates from the 19th century renovation.
