Font 

Believed to date from the fourteenth century, the font has an octagonal basin decorated with the emblems of the Four Evangelists - the Lion, Man, Bull and Eagle - with Angels in the alternate panels. Under the edge is a fringe of cherub heads with interlacing wings. The base of the pedestal probably belonged to one of the piers of an earlier church here.

The interesting Victorian cover was made by a village carpenter named Barber from oak timber of the ship Royal George in 1861. The Greek palindrome (translation:  "Wash my sin, not mine face alone" ) round the cover, was copied from the Church of Santa Sophia in Istanbul (now a museum). The words are a reminder that the Sacrament of Baptism is the outward and visible sign of an inward and spiritual grace, and that the outward washing, by faith in Christ, is a sign of inner cleansing.

The Faith, Hope and Charity Window was presented by Mrs Curtis (née Wormeley) and made by Von Glehn. Mrs Curtis also erected the Carrara marble monument of Venetian workmanship on the tower staircase, to commemorate Admiral Wormeley and his family who worshipped here. Behind the font in the south-west corner of the church stands an oak seat above which is situated a carved Mother with Child. The work was carried out by Mabbitts of Colchester and the whole dedicated to the memory of Mr A. H. (Jack) Christey (1902 - 71).
