Description

Medieval cross shaft mounted on front wall of a square rubble stone well-chamber incorporating re-used medieval arcading. The well-chamber has a narrow doorway to front the head rising into the centre bay of a band of reused late medieval arcading, possibly from a large window. Three cusped pointed heads and a half one each end. Above is a projecting coping of flat stones, and then a two-step parapet of rubble stone on which stands the cross itself. This has a square base, probably not medieval, and the sandstone shaft above. Shaft is octagonal 2.2 m high and 0.35m by 0.25 m at the base. The well-chamber behind has a slate gabled roof.

The well-chamber is tall and narrow with brick pointed vault.
