Description

The Cross at the Churchyard of All Saints is a preaching cross dating from the 15th century, which was restored in 1964. It is made of stone and features a square pedestal approximately half a meter tall, with a chamfered top, standing on a circular plinth composed of three steps. Rising from the pedestal is a square shaft adorned with roll mouldings. The cross has a moulded top and a fragment of a former lantern-top serving as a finial. The entire structure is about 2.5 meters high and is located to the south of the south porch of the church. It is also designated as a scheduled ancient monument.
