Baptism font in St John the Baptist's church, Colaton Raleigh.
The parish church of St John the Baptist was certainly in existence before 1226. It was substantially rebuilt in 1875 retaining some features of the 13th century interior - the Transitional north arcade and font, late 12th - early 13th century. The plain octagonal font is built of Beerstone and has a circular stem with a lower cable mould, and sits on a 19th century moulded base.
