"A Norman plain stone drum with modern wood cover in Jacobean style. The edge of the cover is engraved in memory of Thomas William Huskinson (1862-1935) and Mary Margaret his wife (1858-1921). The font now stands on a floor of early gravestones removed from the churchyard. An inscription on the oldest of these is dated 1611 and reads: ‘Time was I stood where thou dost now and viewed the dead as thou dost me. Ere long thou’ll lie as low as I and others stand and look on thee.’"
