Description
This is a wayside cross located approximately 790 metres south of Dunstone. It is probably medieval in origin and is made from roughly hewn granite. Only a short section of the original shaft survives, as it has been restored and is now set on a later granite shaft. The cross may have marked the route of an old track that connected Plympton Priory to Sampford Spiney.
