Market cross. Mid C19. Sandstone ashlar. A square monument with recessed panels to each face to 5-cusped heads, diagonal hollow mould cornices, set to moulded plinth on 2 octagonal steps. Above a moulded cornice a truncated pinnacle with crocketted corners, and small diagonal pinnacles at corners, 2 of these complete, one without cresting and one a stump only.
