Font with out a church

We did our 4 miles today, passing through the next hamlet. It has a small church yard with a font in the middle of it. The former neo-Gothic Early English style parish church of All Saints, built in 1838 by George Wyndham, 4th Earl of Egremont, lord of the manor, who also built Blackborough House was demolished in the 1990s, having become structurally unsafe. The churchyard however is still maintained and I understand that once a year the local vicar holds a christening for local babies.
