Description
There are four gas lamp-posts located about 2 meters south, 17 meters east, and 72 meters east of the porch of the Church of Holy Cross, and 2 meters north of the church gate. These lamp-posts date from the early 19th century and are made of cast iron. They feature fluted bases and three bands of leaf decoration on the posts, which support canopied gas lamps. They are included in the listing partly for their group value with the church.
