Exterior

Origins as a medieval (probably C14) churchyard cross, similar in design to that at Parish Church of St Faith, Llanfoist; largely rebuilt as a War Memorial.

Tall chamfered shaft with Celtic cross to top. At the foot it has broach stops and sits on a square base with cushioned labels. The whole is carried on a four-stepped base.

Included for group value with Parish Church of St Peter.
