Description
Trequite Cross is a medieval wheelhead cross located in St Kew. It is made of granite and features a raised alisee patte cross on both faces. The head and upper part of the shaft are carved from a single piece of granite, while the lower part of the shaft is made from a reused piece of granite. The cross is set on a socket stone and was resited in the mid-20th century.
