Description

The Cross, located on Moor Lane in Hornby-with-Farleton, is a Grade II listed structure. It features a cross head and base that are likely medieval in origin, although the craftsmanship on the cross head indicates it may have been replaced more recently. The cross is made of sandstone and consists of an irregular boulder with a socket that holds a very short shaft, to which the head is now affixed using cement mortar.

Local climate

Cross sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,320 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 95% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 95% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 43 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 84% of listed buildings. Of these, 22 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
