Description
The churchyard cross located 7 metres south of the chancel at St Peter's Church is a limestone structure dating from 1897. It features a tapered octagonal shaft topped with a tabernacle that has a rhomboidal plan. The tabernacle is adorned with ogee-headed trefoils and a crocketted pinnacle, all resting on a square moulded base that measures approximately 850 mm square. The entire cross stands about 3 metres high. The tabernacle displays figures of three Saints, along with the shield of St Peter and a sword. A plaque indicates that this cross was restored in 1897, but it appears to be a substantial replacement of an earlier cross. The restoration was funded by Mrs. Dent, the then owner of Sudeley Castle, in commemoration of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee.
