Description

The churchyard cross, located southeast of the parish church in Poltimore, dates from the 15th century and features a renewed head. The shaft is reduced, chamfered, and stopped. The socket stone, which may also be from the 15th century, is largely concealed by the ground, which is now level with the top of the base.
