Description
This listing describes a cross and stile located approximately 15 metres south of the church in Sheepstor. The structure likely dates from the 19th century but incorporates older materials. It is made of granite and features a Latin cross with chamfered edges. The shaft of the cross has been repaired, and the arms are replacements. Adjacent to the cross is a stile and stone steps that lead down to what was formerly the village playfield.
