Description
A medieval Christian wayside cross.
MATERIAL: granite.
PLAN: a long shaft with a roughly square cross section.
DESCRIPTION: the cross is roughly hewn with a decorative wheel-head on a tall shaft set in a modern base. The cross is approximately 1.6m high, with a round head 0.5m in diameter and a shaft on average 0.33m across. Both faces of the head have an equal-limbed cross in relief surrounded by a wide beading. The cross shows signs of damage, with a V-shaped piece at the top missing. There are two in-filled holes on the shaft, relating to its former use as a gatepost.
