Description

The cross, located approximately 8 meters north of The Vicarage in Perranarworthal, is a medieval structure made of granite. It features a round-headed monolith that stands on a 15th-century pier base. The cross has a rectangular plan over a polygonal cruciform base. It has been resited, and while the head is mostly missing, there are remains of an incised border and an incised saltire cross on the shaft.
