Description
The churchyard cross, dating from the 15th century with 17th-century additions, is constructed of ashlar. It features five octagonal steps that lead up to the socket stone. The socket stone transitions from a square to an octagonal shape, with stops on each corner. The slender octagonal shaft, likely contemporary to the socket, is topped with a 17th-century fluted finial and a wrought iron cross.
