St Necton Church, Hartland, #Devon
Norman #romanesque font - intersecting arches on bowl & foot, scalloped edge, zigzag pattern on stem.
But ...

@harryjonas3 @NellytheWillow The statue of St George & the Dragon is heavily eroded, but another statue survives in the Duomo Museum #RagusaIbla from chiesa di San Giorgio.
Also, in the museum is a reconstruction of the church before the 1693 earthquake.

A favourite from Chartres Cathedral.

#Roman Villa Romana Del Casale, Piazza Armerina, #Sicily

Villa built over 50 years from late 3rd C - early 4th C C.E.
