Description

Ousley Cross base and shaft, likely from the 15th century, is made of stone. It features a square base with a square socket and a square section shaft that stands approximately 3 feet high. The cross shaft and base have been relocated at least twice, with the most recent move being away from the road; the base was discovered in the garden of Ousley Cross Farmhouse, which is not included in this listing.
