Description
Bottom Cross is a village cross dating from the 14th century, with alterations made in 1663 and restoration around 1869. It is constructed from dressed stone and features a square plinth consisting of five steps. The base is a broached square, and the shaft is a chamfered square that tapers and has a cornice. The cross head, added around 1869, is inscribed with the year '1663'.
