The font from Nobber, Co Meath (ME005-071005-), described as a bowl-shaped vessel (ext. diam. 0.42m; int. diam. 0.34m; D 0.18m) that narrowed to the base (diam. 0.26m) and had two lug handles (Roe 1968, 125), was moved c. 1990 from the Church of Ireland church at Nobber, to St. Ernon’s Church of Ireland church at Kingscourt, Co. Cavan (King 2007, 64), but this stone bowl dates from the 18th or 19th century.
