Description

Criccin Cross is a historic monument featuring the lower part of the shaft and a broken pedestal of a cross, which was erected in the late 13th century to early 14th century. It is made of limestone and has a rectangular base-slab with a chamfered upper edge and mutilated stops at the corners. The remains of a chamfered rectangular shaft are set into a lead-lined socket in the base slab.
