Description

Treffry Cross is a cross that likely dates back to before the Conquest. It was re-sited in 1890 and is made of granite. The cross features a wheelhead that is set on a 19th-century granite shaft, standing at about 3 meters high. The wheelhead has four roughly circular holes and lugs on the sides beneath the head. The shaft is rectangular in shape and tapers as it rises.

Local climate

Treffry Cross sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 990 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 80% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 87% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 10 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 91% of listed buildings. Of these, 4 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.2°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
