Churchyard Cross
GV II


Churchyard cross. C10 or earlier. Sandstone shaft, set on a modern base, the

shaft was found beneath the original base in 1919 and was erected on the new base
in that year. Incomplete tapering shaft, circular turning to a square, reminiscent
of more famous northern examples, such as the Gosforth Cross in Cumbria. Deeply
carved with figure scenes and interlace.
