Cross shaft - according to informant formed doorstep of barn belonging to Shore Boat Farm field buildings.
See (S1).

1988, 16 August. Visit by E. Rose (NAU).
Grid reference formerly given was incorrect. Farmer's wife and farmworkers state that present grid reference is on the only field barn ever to have belonged to the farm. It is of 18th century brick. However the floors and doorsteps have all been replaced by concrete over twenty years ago - no trace of cross now.
E. Rose (NAU) 16 August 1988.
