Scheduling Description:
The monument includes the remains of a standing stone cross located within the churchyard of St Andrew's Church, approximately 30m to the east of the church and approximately 8m to the west of the east gateway. The cross, which is Listed Grade II, is medieval in date and includes the two socket stones, one above the other, and the remaining part of the shaft.
The lower socket stone, which is set into the ground, measures 0.25m high and 0.65m square at the base, rising through chamfered corners with stop angles to an octagonal section on the surface. The upper socket stone which is mortared to the lower one, measures 0.65m high by 0.55m square at the base, rising through chamfered corners with defined stop angles to an octagonal section with a moulded cornice on the surface. The shaft, which is set onto the upper surface of the socket stone, measures 1.53m in height by 0.32m square at the base, rising through chamfered corners to a tapering octagonal section. The full height of the cross in its present form is 2.43m. The tarmac pathway where it falls within the monument's protective margin is excluded from the scheduling, although the ground beneath it is included.
