Font S face: All that can be said is that it appears to show a figure on a bed with a larger figure at the left end of the bed. The Nativity is likeliest in view of the other scenes, but it could be a miracle scene.
The font was discovered in use as a cattle trough in 1849, when it was given to the church. It now stands at the west end of the S aisle. The bowl is the only original part - it stands on 19thc. shafts. It was originally square, but the angles have been chamfered off, and each chamfer chamfered again towards the top of the bowl. The interior is approximately circular and unlined. Each face of the bowl is decorated with a sunken panel containing a figural scene in low relief, but the entire surface is so badly worn that only the forms of the figures are visible. The remains of a row of beading below the figural panel survives on the N and E faces, and some blue polychromy is visible on the E face.
