Medieval font of around 1450, in All Saints' church, Leamington Hastings, thought to have been given in memory of Sir Humphrey Stafford, a soldier who had fought at the battle of Agincourt under Henry V.

Made of sandstone, the hexagonal font stands at the west end of the nave. On each face there is an angel with outstretched wings holding a plain shield. The stem, also hexagonal, with each face having two trefoiled panels. The base and step are modern.
