Summary
| Description |
English: The font at St Nicholas' Church, Kimmeridge The font is a rough circular stone bowl, set on a modern stem and base. This, presumable the original font of the church, appears to have been replaced in the 19th century by another, described by an architect as being "extremely ugly and utterly unsuitable for its purpose". However, in about 1920, two men working for a local farmer found the present font in a ditch which they were digging out near the bottom of the village. It was replaced in the church, and the other is believed to have become a bird-bath. |
