In the SW corner of the Roman Catholic churchyard there is an undecorated octagonal font (ext. diam. c. 0.62m, int. diam. c. 0.45m, H c. 0.4m) with circular basin.
Described in the Urban Survey as 'Partly buried under bushes in the south-west corner of St. Brigid's (R.C.) churchyard. Octagonal straight sided bowl, undecorated. Pink conglomerate. Three panels are damaged. The basin is circular but filled with debris and it could not be ascertained whether a central drainage hole was present or not' (Urban Survey 1986, 15). Fifteenth or sixteenth century in date. No central drainge hole in the font which may suggest that it is a font of post-reformation date.
