Font in Bannow

Font

What is recorded here

The highly decorated Romanesque font from this church is now in the Roman Catholic church at Carrick on Bannow (WX046 011 ) (Corlett 2012). It is complete (H 0.87m) and was probably made from Dundry stone but is now painted white. It has a rectangular base (dims 0.6m x 0.61m; H 0.26m), a plain circular stem (diam. 0.48m), and the rectangular basin (dims 0.62m x 0.59m; H 0.4m) has banded decoration that is similar on two sides, but different on the other two, and shows Anglo-Saxon influence.
