Description
The remains of a churchyard cross, dating from the 15th century, are located approximately 215 metres to the north-west of The Flags. This cross is made of dressed red sandstone and features an octagonal base with three steps and a socket for the former shaft. It stands to the south-west of the ruins of the former church of St. Mary, which was abandoned and partially demolished in 1858. A photograph in the Shropshire Libraries collection shows that the cross once had at least half of its shaft still intact. As of December 1986, the cross base was overgrown and largely hidden from view.
