The Baptistry was created as a memorial to Walton parishioners killed in the First World War. The gallery above the south aisle was taken down and the font moved from the north aisle to its present location. During the work a 14th century window was discovered in the west wall, and stained glass was inserted in the lancet frame. The Baptistry also houses the Book of Remembrance, which records the names of those whose ashes are interred in the Gardens of Remembrance in the churchyard.
