Description

The Village Cross, located on the Village Green in Over Kellet, is a cross of uncertain age that was restored in 1893. It is made of sandstone and features a square base consisting of two steps. This base supports a single square chamfered block that has a socket for the cross shaft. The lower section of the shaft seems to be older than the head and upper shaft, which were both added during the 1893 restoration.
