Description

Weeping Cross is located 4 metres south of the south aisle of the Church of St Lawrence. It is possibly from the 15th century and was restored in the mid-19th century. The cross is made of stone and stands approximately 3 metres high. It features a three-tiered square, stepped base leading to a plinth block, which is chamfered and spurred at the angles to create an octagonal surbase. The shaft is chamfered and square, leading up to a head block that is topped with a small cross on a pyramidal base.
