Situated in the cloister of Killone Augustinian nunnery (CL041-062001-). The pedestal of a font (base Wth 0.45m; H 0.71m) stands slightly askew in the cloister although it previously stood in the nave of the church. The font is described by Westropp (1900, 130) as ‘a simple but interesting font, resting on an octagonal pillar, with round fillets to four sides, and a moulded head with a round basin’ and a drawing is provided. The bowl is no longer present.
