MATERIALS: Limestone.
DESCRIPTION: The stone socketed base of a medieval standing cross is situated in the north-east corner of the churchyard of the parish Church of St Denys in the village of Little Barford. The cross base is of a single piece of roughly dressed limestone, octagonal in shape and approximately 570-590mm in diameter with a square socket hole in the centre of the top approximately 230mm across. The base is approximately 350mm high with the top edge chamfered on all sides. The socket is approximately 150mm deep. It is not known if the cross base is resting on a buried plinth as soil hides the bottom on several sides.
