A square-shaped granite baptismal font (dims. 0.53m x 0.55m x T 0.06m; H 0.19m) with a circular basin (top diam. 0.4m; base diam. 0.32m; D 0.14m) and central drain-hole (0.04m) with roll moulding (H 0.05m; diam. 0.42m; T 0.02m) running around base of font which sat on top of a circular column (diam. 0.38m) now lost. Removed from Herbertstown Church (KD023-018----) some time before 1990 by local parishioners and placed in the graveyard of St. Peter’s R. C. Church, Two-Mile-House (Gibson 1990, 60). Cross-referenced with KD023-018002-. A second possibly earlier font (KD024-067----) also taken from Herbertstown Church lies a few metres to the E.
