What is recorded here

A plain font is kept in the porch of the present church on the site of the medieval church of Dunboyne (ME050-021001-). It is rectangular (ext. dims 0.54m; H 0.4m) with a circular, flat-bottomed basin (int. diam. 0.4m; D 0.17m plus). It has hollow chamfers at the angles, so it appears octagonal from above and the form morphs to circular at the bottom (diam. c. 0.4m). (Roe 1968, 115)

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
