The
Font The stone font by William Burges is elaborately
designed in Gothic Revival style. It was not originally intended
for St. Peter's, but probably for St. James', Winscombe, where the
rector John Augustus Yatman (of Winscombe Hall) was a patron of
several of Burges' works locally. It was almost certainly executed
by a London stonemason, and the original price was £36, with £5
extra for the top and for carriage (more
on provenance).
