Description

The Buttercross, located approximately 120 metres to the south-west of Number 11 (South Lodge) in Pitchford, is likely a cross base dating from the 15th or 16th century. It is constructed from grey sandstone and features an irregular boulder resting on three circular stone steps. This structure may have originally been a cross base from Pitchford churchyard, which could have been relocated to its current site, with the boulder added later to serve as a park ornament. This alteration might have occurred during the time of George Devey's work at Pitchford Hall in the 1870s and 1880s.
