Description
This is a medieval cross located 4 metres southeast of the east end of the Chapel of St Nectans in St Winnow. It is made of granite and features a short rectangular shaft with a rounded head. The cross has a design in slight relief on both the north and south faces, surrounded by a slightly raised border. It stands on a later low granite base that rests on a square plinth. The cross has been resited from its original location, which was likely at Higher or Lower Coombe, approximately 400 metres southwest of the chapel.
