Pevsner called it the most sumptuous font in #Shropshire. This is #Stottesdon, a work of the #Herefordshire School, @crsbi site report now online at crsbi.ac.uk/view-item?i=13…
Wishing you all a very happy Friday! Have you ever visited the church of St Peter and St Paul, Shernborne in #Norfolk to see the very impressive font? It’s a beauty! If you’d like to learn more, check out the site report online - crsbi.ac.uk/view-item?i=46… #FontsonFriday
Happy #WestFrontWednesday! Here's the the parish church of @kirkbylonsdale (incl. some arcade porn). The scars here show the expansion of the north aisle (before an outer aisle was added!) Check out @DrJACameron's entry on @crsbi. crsbi.ac.uk/site/3752/
As promised, it’s another incredible font from #Norfolk! This font is found at the church of St Mary and All Saints, Sculthorpe, #Norfolk! Have a look at the online site report to learn more about the sculpture at this site - crsbi.ac.uk/view-item?i=44… #FontsonFriday
Do you recognise this font? If so, you must have visited the fabulous site of St Martin, Fincham in #Norfolk! Check out the site report online - crsbi.ac.uk/view-item?i=406 For the month of October we'll be highlighting some more wonderful Norfolk fonts! #FontsonFriday
Wishing you all a fantastic Friday! Here’s this week’s #FontsonFriday highlight for you, at the church of St. Mary Magdalene, Winterbourne Monkton, #Wiltshire! See the online site report for all the info - crsbi.ac.uk/view-item?i=92…
Wow! St. Michael giving the dragon a pretty hard time on the tympanum at St. Mary, Kingswinford, #Staffordshire is this week's #TympanumTuesday highlight! Check out the site report for all the details and more - crsbi.ac.uk/view-item?i=11…
#FontsonFriday Amazing, detailed sculpture covers every inch of the four faces of the font of St. Michael’s church, Bowness-on-Solway, #Cumberland - crsbi.ac.uk/view-item?i=32…
Another fantastic tympanum for #TympanumTuesday! This highlight is from Cormac's Chapel, Cashel, #CountyTipperary! - crsbi.ac.uk/view-item?i=11…
Petrockstow #Devon Norman font c. 1170. North face has two rosettes, both 8- rather than 6-pointed. Jacobean cover. All rather lovely. #FontsOnFriday

This week’s beautiful #FontsonFriday font is from the church of St. Nicholas, Newbald, East Riding of #Yorkshire! Opinions differ as to whether the bowl is of the same date as the stem, what do you think? - crsbi.ac.uk/view-item?i=12…

This is #Llanyblodwel in #Shropshire, designed by the Vicar in 1847. Perhaps he envisaged a rocket to heaven, but claimed that it was based on Freiburg Minster. Its font is the subject of some disagreement #FontsonFriday @crsbi report online at crsbi.ac.uk/view-item?i=34…
The only surviving twelfth-century plug? Made for the font at Kilpeck. In 1974 it went for a walk, was 'found by a tourist in the river Usk' & returned to the church by Peter Harbison. It now sits on the windowsill, restrained from further wandering by an iron band. Photo @crsbi

Another #FontsOnFriday at #Hodnet #Shropshire. Looks sort of 12thc but some of the motifs on the panels look wrong. Pevsner thought 12thc in origin but embellished in the 17thc. Thoughts? @crsbi report online now at crsbi.ac.uk/view-item?i=41…
