Description

The Village Cross, located 35 metres north of the Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul, is a village cross that was restored in the 1840s, possibly using a medieval base. It is made of Ham stone and features an octagonal base consisting of three steps with moulded nosings on a lias stone plinth. The plain panelled octagonal base supports a tapered shaft that has a moulded base and incised decoration. At the top, there is a gabletted design surmounted by a fleur-de-lys cross. The restoration was carried out by Walter Long, the Lord of the Manor, as noted in Pooley's "Old Crosses of Somerset" from 1877.
