The font from the church at Rodanstown (ME049-021----) is now at Milltown House. It is octagonal (ext. dim. c. 0.6m; H 0.47m) with a circular basin (diam. 0.46m; D 0.15m) and stands on an octagonal shaft (H 0.17m) with a roll moulding at the top that widens towards the base. (Roe 1968, 113) The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 8 July 2014
