Description

WIDECOMBE-IN- SX 67 SE THE-MOOR 5/157 Cross about 350 metres north-west - of Oldsbrim Farmhouse, about 15 metres south-east of the junction of the B3357 with the road to Ponsworthy - II

Cross, much mutilated. Medieval. Granite. Consists of a single, roughly-shaped piece of stone, tapering towards the top. The cross-head survives, much weathered, and the stump of the left arm, but the right arm has been completely hacked away. In the back are 2 lead plugs, suggesting that the cross has been used as a gatepost at sometime. The cross has been moved from Lower Town Farm, Widecombe, and re- erected here since 1937.
