From the church website cited below:-
"The font is octagonal, adzed plain, squared below and mounted on a square pedestal. In 1644 the Puritans brought in an Act banning the use of fonts. This font was therefore removed into the churchyard where sometime later it was dug up and put back into the church near the north door. During the restoration work of 1883 the font was repositioned further back towards the west window."
