Description

The structure is a cross and reset dressed stone located in the garden to the south of Higher Lank Farmhouse, dating from the medieval period and made of granite. It features a resited wheelhead cross on a short shaft, with a raised rim and a Latin cross in relief on both faces. Additionally, there is a resited granite corbelled bracket of high quality, which includes a carved shield and an angel's head. Other pieces of dressed granite include the remains of what is likely a battlemented parapet. Higher Lank Farmhouse, which is of considerable status, may have originally had a gatehouse, and it is possible that some of the dressed granite pieces, along with a datestone, were sourced from such a building and have been reset in the garden wall at the front of the house.
