Description
This is a medieval cross located in the garden to the south of Oak House, which was previously the vicarage for the Church of St Nonna. Made of granite, the cross features a complete wheelhead that is intricately carved on both faces with a raised Maltese cross and a raised rim. Only a small portion of the shaft is visible, and it is unclear how much of it remains buried underground.
