Description
The graveyard cross located east of the Church of St Kentigern in Aspatria is a late 19th-century structure, built as a facsimile of the 10th-century Gosforth Cross. It is made of red sandstone and features a stepped plinth with a tall shaft. The upper part of the shaft is intricately carved with interlace patterns and figures from Norse legend, and it is topped with a Celtic crosshead. This cross was erected in 1898 as a monument to the vicar W.S. Calverley, who authored "Early Sculptured Crosses in the Diocese of Carlisle" in 1899.
