3/114 Offwell Village Cross
-
GV II
Cross shaft and plinth. Early C19, erected by the Reverend E. Copleston, Bishop of
Llandaff and Dean of St. Pauls. Granite ashlar. The cross shaft is carved with
vaguely Celtic-looking decoration with a small niche high on the front (south) side.
It stands on a slighly tapering plinth of rusticated granite. The following
inscription is cut around the plinth: "Cruwys and Copplestones when the Conqueror
came were at home". It is in fact a copy of C10 Copplestones Cross which stands on
the main Exeter - North Devon road at the junction of the parishes of Crediton
Hamlets, Down St Mary and Colebrooke. The size is about the same but the carving is
inaccurate.
