Description

The Cross located on the boundary with Gresham Parish is a medieval structure that was restored in the 19th century. It is made of stone and stands approximately 4 meters high. The base is square and features a niche on the south face that has been blocked with brick. The base is chamfered and adorned with scalloped carving, while the top is crenellated. The shaft is weathered and polygonal, with repairs made using cement. The cross is topped with a gabled structure from the 19th century.
