What is recorded here

A font that was kept in the graveyard (ME032-001001-) was moved c. 1975 to the Roman Catholic church at Walterstown, c. 2.5km to the SE, where it is displayed in the S porch. It is a cubic piece of white limestone (dims 0.62m x 0.62m; max. H 0.56m) that has chamfered corners and a circular, flat-bottomed basin (int. diam. 0.5m; max. D 0.32m). The rim is wave-like and the form morphs to circular (diam. 0.4m) at the bottom so that the large panels are D-shaped (max. H 0.37m) hanging from the rim.
