The Font
'The gift of Sir Watkin W. Wynn to the Church of Ruabon, upon the baptism of his son, December 16th, 1772'. It is exquisite and delicate with a small marble bowl and wooden cover in the form of an urn and a wooden tripod stand, Gothic in detail. The design for the font survives in the Sir John Soane Museum. John Hinchliffe, a master of the Mason's Company, made the bowl. The wooden stand was carved in oak by Seffrin Nelson.
